I'm very bored, and I wanted to write a poem so I figured that appease all you hungry fanfic readers whilst doing so! Enjoy this Solangelo, I haven't written one for a hot minute! As always, requests are accepted, as well as constructive criticism, but you guys know that already, so on with the fic!
Eyes meet mine;
sky-blue, staring.
I feel as though I am dissolving-
but for once, not into shadows,
but light.
He is the sun,
and I am stuck in his orbit,
trying to cling to what I know but
inevitably failing.
I remember life before him,
when dreams of the sea, of its crashing tides
and glassy surface
plagued me, to no avail.
Those times seem dreamlike now,
the notion of ever being away from the light
nonsensical, silly.
The sun chases shadows,
drives them into the light,
replaces them
with a wash of warmth.
These thoughts follow me as I approach him,
he who is my light, my sun,
the crowd standing and awaiting my arrival
not capturing my attention-
not from those captivating eyes.
He grasps my hand,
freckled, tanned skin
covering my own.
I can barely hear the people around me,
lost in his eyes as I am,
but as I wonder what I ever did to deserve him
the gentle music cuts out
and I remember where I am.
Breaking my gaze from his now lightly-blushing face,
I turn to Reyna, who insisted on officiating,
her smile wider than I've ever seen it,
watching Will do the same from the corner of my eye.
She wipes away a little tear,
before turning to the guests and asking them to sit.
Clearing her throat, she begins
but Will tugs on my hand to turn to face him again
and when I see his face,
blushing and smiling and happy tears brimming in his beautiful, beautiful eyes
I fall all over again.
Reyna gets through all the necessary elements before
I even know what's happening,
and by this point, tears are tracking their way down my cheeks in a steady trickle.
Finally, I hear Reyna say those fateful words...
"Do you, William Solace, take Nico di Angelo to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
His eyes burn into mine,
Soft smile gracing his freckled features.
"I do," he murmurs, hands coming forward,
Grasping the sides of my face,
And all I can see is him.
"And do you, Nico di Angelo, take William Solace to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
And as I stare into his warm eyes,
look into the deepest parts of him,
all I can do is take my final step out of the darkness,
And let the light surround me.
"I do."
Yay! Ok this took a turn I didn't mean it to but I'm overall pretty proud of it, especially considering the fact it took me like 4 hours because I had such bad writer's block. Anyway, bye my smol beans!
