Chapter 2- Snow White and Prince Ferdinand
As requested by: Jubaidah (thanks for all your reviews!)
Prince Ferdinand smoothed out his outfit nervously. "Do I look alright?" he asked anxiously.
"You look splendid, Your Majesty," the priest replied swiftly.
He took a deep breath, closing his eyes and thought back.
When they first met, she had been dressed like a servant, and yet he had fallen deeply for her beauty and her voice. She was by far, the most fairest in the kingdom. It was as if he was enchanted by a spell, or some magic.
If it was, he hoped it would be a spell that would never break. He loved her, that much was true, but why did he feel so… nervous right now, when it was the day of their wedding?
He fiddled with his white gloves, unable to contain the very mixed emotions he was feeling at that moment.
What if he had forced Snow White into this? Her stepmother just passed away, and she has to take the place and be Queen now. What if she was marrying him because she felt that it was a duty to her people?
She was too young to love. Too young to be queen. She needed someone older to rule alongside her. Someone like… well, him.
The flourish of trumpets pulled him out of his thoughts, and he turned to face the door through which Snow White was entering.
She appeared in an elegant white dress with a long trail that was carried by small, blue birds. A thin layer of white veil covered her face, and she held a bouquet in her hands.
The Prince felt his heart swell as she walked towards him, the uneasiness melting away in her presence. How could he have had any second thoughts?
Yes, she was too young. Too young, too kind and too naïve to even think about using him for her own gain. She was firm, followed her dreams and so would definitely not marry for anything but love.
She faced him at the end of the alter, the birds took the bouquet, and he reached out to uncover her face. She smiled shyly up at him, her usually white complexion was rosy from the blush she couldn't contain.
"Are you certain you will not be regretting this?" she whispered.
She was worried about him making the wrong decision. She loved him.
He took both her hands in his and smiled back. "Never. Will you?"
Her eyes danced with joy as she stared into his. "This is a dream come true."
I was debating so much whether to go through with the ceremony and make them kiss and then have Snow White say goodbye to the seven dwarfs who are at the wedding, but…
I still hope you enjoy it. I'm sorry if they're OOC and that it's short, because I'm really not that familiar with Snow White or the Prince and yeah, but it's a request, so it must be done.
Thanks for reading, please review.
