I already wrote a scene on this song before, but I figured out another scene that could fit on this one! It made me think of another song a few times... "Speak Now" by Taylor Swift. A sweet song, and you'll see why!

As the organ starts playing its usual tune, and the crowd turns around to watch the large wooden doors open to let someone enter, he is the one that keeps looking forward. With pain in his heart he is currently there, watching the love of his life marry someone else. She is beautiful in her white dress, and she looks sincerely happy as she makes her way down the aisle. Her steps are firm, but she follows the music, not wanting to rush through this moment, her moment.

It had all been his own fault anyway, that it was not him currently there. That he was not dressed in a suit, smiling up at the man he held so dear. It was Deidara who had chosen a life where there was no place for him. Where he turned unhappy while Deidara spends his evenings wasting away, celebrating life in a way that was not as fitting. Pushing him away, Deidara ended up alone, as he first wanted it to be. No tears would be shed for him if there was no right reason for it. But finding himself on this uncomfortable wooden bench somewhere on the side, while he was getting married, seemed awfully wrong.

I know I took the path that you would never want for me

There had been enough happy memories though, even if Deidara had chosen to ignore them. They were bursting with love and life, the taste of something better lingering in every moment they were together. And now Deidara knew he had it so much better when he was together with him. That beautiful man dressed in an all-black suit. His hair falling loosely on his shoulders, hiding away his sharp features. They really looked like a perfect picture together.

During all his travels through the years, trying to shed every thought of him off, Deidara never imagined himself returning home, returning to him. But reality had been different. Reality had been that every travel Deidara made, had been chosen with him in mind. Thinking about what he would like and if he would've enjoyed it. Every decision he had ever made, had revolved around the man about to get married to the wrong person.

How could Deidara even think that coming here was a good idea? Seeing the smiling families, parents getting teary-eyed about this happy occasion. What good could it do? It had been his own fault all this time. Deidara had told him that they would never see each other again, because there was no point to it. They were too different, and it was no use to fight for something that was not there to begin with. It was the first time Deidara had seen him cry. But it had not changed a thing, because Deidara had left regardless. All because of a dream that had never come to life. A dream that could not be fulfilled without him in his life anyway.

I gave you hell through all the years

And then the priest started speaking, the wedding really starting. The whole church grew quiet as everyone's attention was at the loving couple in front of them. Voice easily carrying through the entire building, Deidara could feel the sentence coming. Could feel the moment approaching. The one that could change everything, if he took the chance. The romantic opportunity. The moment where for the first time he would lay out everything, and made himself incredibly vulnerable. A moment that frightened him, but it was his last chance.

"Speak now or forever hold your peace."

With shaking legs Deidara stood up and moved to the aisle. A gasp echoed through the church as more and more people noticed what was happening. It hardly ever happened, but here Deidara was, taking a stand. Speaking now, even if he could not utter a word. Seeing the bride and groom turn around, and seeing him stand there. Deidara's heart pounded so hard, he was sure it was about to burst out of his chest. The bride had no clue who he even was, raising an eyebrow at the situation at hand, because surely he could not be here for her. And Deidara indeed wasn't.

Don't tell me that I'm wrong

Taking a step forward Deidara turned his pleading eyes towards the person he knew so well. The one he loved with all his heart, and had missed during his lonely travels. Life was not better when it was lived the way Deidara had. That life was gone now, and here he was, asking for something almost impossible.

But the shimmer of doubt was visible in those dark eyes, and even the bride started questioning the groom when his feet started moving. The pull on his sleeve stopped the groom dead in his tracks though, knowing he may be better off where he was now. More security and lasting love. Deidara had done everything wrong, but it was all different now. It was a time passed where he was young and foolish. He had grown up and was ready for this, understood what it meant. This was true love.

"Please forgive me for all I've done," he whispered, but the groom heard him all too well.

Jumping off the small platform Itachi left behind his beautiful bride, ran passed the shocked family members, ignored the shouts of parents that did not agree. With hope in his heart he ran and grabbed Deidara by the hand, dragging him down the aisle, and out of the church. Because never had Itachi been able to forget about his first love. The one that had hurt him so badly, but had made him feel more than he ever could've dreamed of. His bride had been beautiful and kind, but she had never been as glorious as Deidara.

And there in front of a church that would forever reject their love, they declared their love for each other. A kiss shared, emotions flowing through, hearts beating as one. This was it, the end, and this was what they would forever live for. There would be no one else, ever again.

I bet my life on you
