Kel's POV
Kel cantered to catch up to Neal. He was miles ahead of her already. This is the result of being hopelessly in love. Kel thought. Too bad there's nobody who loves me. Cleon is married to an heiress, I am over the crush I had over Neal, plus he's getting married soon. Although there is Dom. no, he wouldn't return my feelings towards him. He only loves me as a friend.
While the lady knight was musing on love and marriage, she didn't notice that she had arrived at Steadfast already. By the time she noticed her surroundings, Neal had jumped off his horse and ran to Yuki, where they were busy making out like no tomorrow. It sure would be nice to do that to Dom. No! Stop thinking those things. It's never going to happen! . Kel put on her Yamani mask to hide her sadness, and started to take off Hoshi's tack and brush her down while murmuring compliments to her. "Hello Kel. Long time no see."
"Hello Sir-er, Raoul. Congratulations on the wedding. I knew that suggestion that Buri should have gone with you to that party that Midwinter was a good idea."
"As it was. I love her very much. And here she is."
As Buri came into the stable, Raoul grabbed her and planted a kiss right on her lips.
"Well that was a bit unexpected." Buri breathed, while blushing profusely.
"Congratulations on getting married, Buri. You and Raoul are meant for each other." Kel said brightly.
"We were weren't we, both commanders, and both great kissers. If I do say so myself." Raoul proudly stated. With a wicked smile to accompany the remark.
"Ugh, Raoul, do you have to embarrass everybody here?" said Buri.
"Of course I do, honey." He retorted.
" Well, I'm out of here, you two lovebirds better not do that all the time, it'll scare everyone away. " Kel said as she started to walk towards the mess hall.
"Wait, Kel!" Buri yelled after her. " Do you want to be one of my bridesmaids?"
"Sure. Thanks a lot" Kel yelled back.

When Kel came to the mess hall, she was greeted by some of her friends from the Own.
"Kel! Sit here!" Somebody called. Kel couldn't see his face, but saw a hand waving franticly in the air.
After getting her tray and her food, Kel sat next to the speaker, and finally turned towards him. Dom.
Oooh, he's so cute when he smiles. Calm down Kel, breath, smile back, no blushing. "Hi Dom. How's it been going here in Steadfast?" Kel asked "Any serious attacks?"
"No, nothing on Steadfast. Only on my heart. I've missed you so much." Dom answered longingly.
"You must have had way too much time on your hands, and not enough real women to talk to" Kel retorted. It would be so nice if what he said was actually true. She thought as she stuffed more bread in her mouth realizing just how hungry she was.
"I guess you're right" Dom said as he looked at her intently. Kel saw something in his eyes as she looked back that she couldn't recognize. As she turned back to her food, she forgot about it.
