This is an extra chapter... Because I have a feeling that my last chapter 'the dagger' wasn't really loved though I put a lot of effort in it.

This chapter is about what could have happened if Kanou-san was still alive (which isn't the case...) Let's just say, this is how Ayase would've dreamed his would weading to be.

Anyway, please review... :)

Extra chapter

"Hurry! We're already late!" I yelled. Someya ran to me. She held a white veil in her left hand while the other was holding her almost 9-months far belly tightly.

"I have it in white," she said breathing deeply. "Blue and purple."

"White's good! He's already wearing a white dress!" said Gion, who seemed more nervous then I was. His blond hair had grown in the last eight months and he now put it in a ponytail. Homare entered the room in a sudden outburst as Someya was placing the veil over my blond wig.

"Kanou-san's ready." he said after a few seconds of staring at me. "He's already waiting down the aisle."

"O God!" Gion yelled and he panicked even more. "Hurry Someya-nee! He's waiting!"

"Can you please stop telling me to hurry! In case you haven't noticed: I'm pregnant! It's unhealthy for a pregnant woman to do things fast." Someya replied. Gion sighed deeply and started to pace in a steady rhythm around the room.

"I'll go tell Kanou-nii that you're almost ready." Homare said, clearly also getting nervous because of his youngest brother. "But first…" he quickly entered the room, placing a kiss on Someya-san's cheek. She giggled softly.

"How are you? If you're tired you should rest." he whispered.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine! By the way, I'm Aya-chan's bridesmaid, he can't afford missing me." she replied. Homare smiled friendly.

"Then, I'm leaving." he said, kissing her fully now with a smile. "Good luck, Ayase-san." he winked at me.

"Homare-san…" I said. He turned around to look at me and I couldn't hold back my smile. "How does Kanou-san look?" Homare smiled back.

"If you mean whether he's nervous, then I should say: you have never seen him like this." he now showed his full smile, turning around gracefully.

"By the way, you look beautiful." he said before closing the door and I giggled, whispering a soft 'thank you'. I turned back to the mirror. I really looked female. Even though I already got used to wearing a dress, this one made it look like I really was a girl.

"All done!" Said Someya as she put the white rose hairpin into my golden wig, to hold the veil.

"So… you ready?" she asked with a wide smile. I shook my head.

"Not yet… can you call Aizawa-san?" I asked, pointing my question towards Gion. He looked up and smiled.

"I think that would calm me down." he said. "Should I bring his daughter along with me?"

"Yes." said Someya, that's a good idea, and tell his wife to come too." Gion nodded, bowed deeply and left with trembling legs.

"It's like he's the one to get married, ne?" I asked. Someya giggled softly.

"He was also this nervous at my wedding, he was the one to be my witness. I gave her a shocked look and she nodded with a smile.

"We're actually more than brother and sister in law. We're also like best friends. He met me on one of his journeys once and took me home with him. That's when I met Homare. He was so young back then, just became twenty and we fell in love. Since I didn't really have anyone else my life then this royal family I wanted to stay. That's when we decided that we should get married." she rested her hand on her belly again.

"I couldn't be more pleased than to give birth to his baby." she said with a beautiful smile. "I hope it's a boy… it would be as great as a leader as his father." she looked me in the eye and placed my hand into hers.

"You nervous?" she asked and I nodded weakly with a smile. "Take a deep breath." I did as I was told and closed my eyes.

"In an hour or so, we'll be bonded forever." I said towards her. Someya pinched my hand.

"It'll be like a fairytale, I promise." she said and she placed a kiss on my cheek when the door suddenly opened. Aizawa entered hand in hand with his wife and their daughter ran straight at me.

"Ayase nee-chan!" she yelled and she jumped into my arms. "You look beautiful." she whispered in my ear and lay her small hand onto the rose in my hair. Her little blue dress looked shiny new and her long black hair was up in a bun.

"Thank you, Nozomi-chan." I said and I now turned my gaze towards Aizawa-san. He looked at me with a smile and his dark red costume looked beautiful towards his wife's red dress. She walked towards Someya and was given a basket with flower petals.

"You look beautiful indeed, Ayase-sama." she said while holding the basket closely. I smiled at her.

"Thank you, Mina-san."

"Are you ready?" Aizawa asked. "Kanou-sama's waiting for you." he came standing next to me, holding out his arm and as I once did with Kanou-san I placed my hand through it. As Nozomi-chan was given a few rose petals by her mother Someya prepared to leave before us.

"Good luck, Aya-chan." she said and now Nozomi opened the door, walking as I saw the whole room standing up everybody looking at her, being quickly followed by the rose-petal dropping Someya and Mina.

"Well… this is it." Aizawa said. I nodded weekly, taking one more deep breath.

"Lets go."

The room was clapping as I entered. I could feel a blush appearing and my eyes were searching for Kanou-san, who I was unable to see because of Someya and Mina standing in front of me. I could feel myself becoming nervous. I didn't know what he looked like and wanted to know so badly.

Someya parted to the right while Mina and her daughter walked the other way. Aizawa stopped in front of the little stairs and I could see Kanou-san's face.

His dazzling smile made my heart skip a beat. He was wearing a dark, traditional costume and his dark brown eyes never shone as they did on that moment. I could feel a blush appearing at the same time as my smile did.

Aizawa retreated his arm, kissing my cheek and whispering a soft: 'Good luck'.

I stood there stunned and felt how Someya placed my bridal bouquet in my hands she smiled and than placed herself next to her husband, into a first line chair.

Kanou straightened his body and placed one arm behind his back. He gracefully step down the stairs, stopping next to me and bowing deeply while placing a kiss on the palm of my hand.

He then placed my hand in his and we walked on the stairs together. The priest gave us a kind smile and turned my head as he made sign for the people in the room to sit down.

"Dearly beloved, we are gathered together here in the sight of God, and in the face of this company, to join together Somuku Kanou and Yukiya Ayase in holy Matrimony. Into this holy estate these two persons present come now to be joined. If any man can show just cause, why they may not lawfully be joined together, let him now speak, or else hereafter for ever hold his peace." Kanou held my hands tightly and to be honest, I wasn't really listening to the words of the priest. I only cared about the man in front of me.

"Kanou-sama; wilt thou have this woman to thy wedded wife. Wilt thou love her, comfort her, honour, and keep her in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all others, keep thee only unto her, so long as ye both shall live?"

Kanou's smile sent me straight up to heaven. He pinched my hand softly and nodded truly.

"I will." I could feel a little blush appearing on my cheek because of the sternness of his voice. We were almost there…

"And wilt thou, Ayase-sama; have this man to thy wedded husband. Wilt thou love him, comfort him, honour, and keep him in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all others, keep thee only unto him, so long as ye both shall live?"

"I will." I whispered and Kanou smiled widely. The priest held the two rings in front of us.

"Then, With these Rings I thee wed: In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen." he said and everybody repeated the last word. He softly slid the ring around my left ring-finger and I repeated the same action around his.

"I now pronounce thee husband and wife… thou may kiss the bride." Kanou appeared closer still showing the most beautiful smile I had ever seen.

"Finally…" he whispered and he then let his lips take full control of me. This was it, we were finally a married couple!

It's not that long, I know... but that's not really improtant now, is it? :D
