Epilogue
King Fuyuhiko was thrilled to meet the person who had captured his son's heart, and now his fiancé. He welcomed Misaki with open arms.
"Welcome back son! I see you were lucky with you search." Fuyuhiko greeted and eyed Misaki who was beside Akihiko. Misaki looked at Akihiko who nodded. He stepped closer and bowed. "B-Bonne aprés-midi, Your Highness. My name is Takahashi Misaki." Misaki introduced shyly.
"Oh, call me Fuyuhiko. You're part of the family now. I'm proud of you Akihiko. You've found a rare diamond." He said and looked at Akihiko.
"Yes." Akihiko said, made his way to beside Misaki again and smiled warmly at Misaki, taking his hand.
Hiroki was a few feet away from them watching as his long-time friend smiled with a true smile. At least Akihiko could be happy and be whoever he wished.
"But won't people think..I'm not a girl..." Misaki looked down. Akihiko held Misaki's shoulders and rubbed them.
Fuyuhiko looked little sad at them. "Ah, the lawn. That is a little problem."
Misaki and Akihiko looked at the king.
Fuyuhiko cleared his throat. "From this day on..the prince shall marry whoever he deems worth it."
Both Akihiko and Misaki smiled wide and looked at each other with love filled eyes.
"And.." Fuyuhiko continued. All of them looked at the king again confused.
"This rule shall be valid for all the citizens of this land." He finished.
Hiroki gasped so loudly that the king and Akihiko and Misaki turned around to look at him. But with happy faces. Hiroki looked at the king with wide eyes. "What? You thought that I didn't notice?" Fuyuhiko said laughing lightly.
"Hiro-san?"
Hiroki looked at the huge doorway where Nowaki was standing. Hiroki just couldn't hold it. He half-jogged towards him. "Hiro-san!" Nowaki exclaimed and also ran towards the love of his life.
They met in a sweet hug and Nowaki kissed Hiroki with passion, Hiroki embracing him. They seperated and smiled towards the other companions in the room. Akihiko cast a happy smirk towards his friend. He placed his hand on Misaki's waist, making Misaki look up at him and lean against him.
Misaki moved into the royal palace at the same day when Akihiko brought him home. Horrified by Misaki's story of how he suffered at the hands of Erina and her sons, the king ordered that Erina shall be arrested for his various crimes. Including lying to the Crown Prince and neglecting his stepson. Mizuki and Sumi were left on their own but the palace took them in as manservants.
A month after Akihiko was reunited with the love of his life, the entire country celebrated the wedding full of grandeur and romance. The whole town was decked out with streamers hanging over the streets and the people were dressed in their most colorful attire as they drank champagne and tossed rose petals at each other.
The palace was shining of jewels. The grand ballroom was strewn with gold and silver silken drapes and streamers, covered in every flower imaginable.
The ceremony itself took place on the throne dais. The groom wore white, finery made by the best tailors of the land. Misaki was wearing a wedding dress of course. Misaki wore a long white gown which had long sleeves made of lace. It shone with diamonds creating a wonderful sparkle and he had a veil that reached his back.
As Misaki made his way to the aisle all he could see was Akihiko. He made his way slowly beside him. Akihiko's eyes were filled with love and he took Misaki's other hand in his. "You look beautiful." He whispered to Misaki's ear. Misaki smiled to him with tears already in his eyes.
He couldn't believe it. One day he's at mercy of his horrible stepfamily, scrubbing the floors and washing the clothes with dirty hands and sleeping with just a thin mat on the cold floor. And now he's going to marry the prince. But he is the man he fell in love.
As they said their vows the king looked at them with happiness. Hiroki sat beside Nowaki and they were holding hands, joyful that they could finally be like this, together without it being a secret.
Akihiko slid a gold ring onto the fourth finger of Misaki's left hand, neStling it next to the simple silver band with a two-carat diamond engagement ring that Akihiko had given to Misaki the day after they had been reunited.
Misaki likewise, slipped a near-identical gold band onto Akihiko's finger. Akihiko's ring was bigger and inside the rings they could see the names of the lovers carved into the gold.
The bishop pronounced them man-and-husband and declared that Akihiko may kiss his groom. Akihiko complied with enthusiasm. He pulled Misaki into a tight embrace, lifting him a little and planted a hard but sweet kiss on the boy's mouth. Misaki returned in full. The congregation cheered with joy and clapped happily.
They seperated and walked down the aisle. The reception that followed remained legendary for generations to come. The food was prepared by the finest chefs in the kingdom and the guests danced until two in the morning.
As the last of the guests lumbered out of the palace and into their carriages, the newlyweds stood side-by-side on the balcony where they had shared their first kiss, watcing the night as the stars shone down on them.
Akihiko glanced down at Misaki who looked up to Akihiko with love in his eyes. But in Akihiko's eyes there was something else too… Akihiko placed a hand on Misaki's waist and rubbed it there. Misaki looked at the hand and back to his husband's eyes. By now Akihiko's gaze had turned a little darker. Misaki felt a tingling sensation in his stomach, similiar to the one he had felt when Akihiko had kissed him. But this was much more..intense. He felt his face growing hot.
Akihiko smirked and raised an eyebrow. He took Misaki's hand softly and led him inside. Misaki didn't resist as his husband pulled him along several corridors, up the stairs and along a few more hallways until they stopped in front of a door.
Akihiko opened the door, revealing a large, luxurious suite, complete with a king-sized bed cowered with linen, silk and..rose petals. Misaki blinked. He looked up at Akihiko and gave him a seductive and sultry smile. Akihiko returned the look, a smirk on his lips.
"Hentai." Misaki whispered and giggled before Akihiko bent down, passing one arm behind Misaki's back and other behind his knees. He straightened and carried his love bridal style over the threshold, kicking the door close behind them.
They lived happily ever after.
Soo.. it's over. This final chapter was little sappy and pretty short. Well this was my first fanfic anywhere on the internet. I'm happy cause I think I did ok. I'm sorry that I didn't put any Haruhiko or Ijuun in this or some other important characters and.. I wanted this to be like the normal fairytale but little different. I'm planning on something else and that time I think I want it to be like normal life in the Junjou Romantica world and maybe also Sekaiichi Hatsukoi. We'll see. I'm really glad that I even got reviews on this story and someone wanted to read my fanfiction. Thanks :)
But I'll see you soon with something else.
