There's a pain in Roxanne's chest as Dominique walks down the aisle on her wedding day. Really, Roxanne has always known this day would come. Their time hidden away together, safe and sound and so in love, had always been destined to come to an end.
Lysander can give her the world. He and Dominique can be so in love without the constant fearful question of, "What if they find out?"
Roxanne leans back in her seat, blinking back tears and ignoring Lucy's, "I always cry at weddings, too, Roxy."
As the elderly wizard begins the rites, Roxanne wishes she could be anywhere else. She isn't sure that she can survive this fatal blow that means their time together is a thing of the past.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
Roxanne shifts her gaze to the window, unable to fight a smile as the droplets of water pelt the glass. Rain on a wedding day, a bad omen.
She feels the first flicker of hope that maybe, just maybe, there's still a chance for them.
