Chapter Text

 

When it’s time, he’s the one to reach for her.

His breath catches at the sight of her: white and radiant, she’s moonlight reflected on the sea. Yor is looking at the roses, her smile pink and rosy, and her expression only grows softer at the sight of him. She puts the bouquet down and walks towards him, her cheeks growing red as she observes him, giggling under her palm.

“I thought it was bad luck to see the bride,” she smiles.

Loid chuckles. “I couldn’t hold myself back.” He holds her fingers and kisses the back of her hand. “You look lovelier than anything.”

Yor blushes. ”You too, dear,” she pauses, then after a moment. “Are we sure we want to enter together? Perhaps everyone prefers a traditional and normal wedding.”

Loid rolls his eyes and smiles.

“And what was ever normal about us, darling?”

This time her giggle grows in a laugh, and he’s trapped by the happy, beautiful sight of her. 

“I can’t argue with that,” her eyes grow soft, her smile watery, then she looks at him. “I love you, Loid.”

He smiles back, kissing the inside of her palm.

“I love you too,” he says, “and I always will.” He offers her his arm, facing the door. “Are you ready?”

“Ready as I’ll ever be,” Yor smiles, taking his arm. 

One step forward, then another, followed by a third. They walk side by side, hands locked together and fingers intimately interlaced. Light greets them as they open the door, welcoming them to a new beginning.
