I took my position to the right of the archway as I’d been instructed. Marcus stood next to me. As the music began to play, I patted him on the back. A line of air elementals wore gowns in assorted shades of purple. They strolled down the aisle with bouquets that matched the other flower arrangements. I glanced around the audience. Orion and Marlena were seated together. On the opposite side, Britta sat with several other water elementals. To my surprise, Selene was with several hounds. In the front row on the bride’s side, I saw Ariel’s parents and younger siblings. I let out a sigh of relief. We’d all wondered if they’d show up and support their oldest daughter. I was glad to see they made the right choice.

Kalin was the last bridesmaid to come down. She kept her eyes on me as she headed our way. She was even more beautiful than the last time I saw her. The evergreen tint in her eyes sparkled under the candlelight. She smiled the entire way, finally stopping on the opposite end of the stage. She gave me a little wave, and I winked at her. The music changed. Ariel would be strolling down in the aisle any second, but I couldn’t take my eyes off Kalin. Would this be the only time she’d walk down the aisle? Would I never get the chance to propose? It was unfair to both of us.

After all we’d been through, we should get the chance to live out our lives.

When I heard Marcus gasp, I shifted my attention over to Ariel. She was already halfway down the aisle. Her wheat-blond hair hung down her back in loose curls. Little white flowers had been sewn in. She wore a white gown that was tight around the waist and fuller at the bottom. I was no expert on dresses, but it looked like the bottom had been dyed purple. The train was pretty extravagant. It had to be six feet long, and was held up by flying woodland pixie faeries that smiled and waved at the crowd. I understood Marcus’s reaction.

Ariel really was stunning.

Marcus held out his hand, guiding her up the stage. They held hands beneath the archway. Tears ran down her cheeks. He faced away from me so I couldn’t read the expression on his face, but somehow, I sensed his joy. His elation. It was the strangest feeling. Like it was coming from inside of me. As if we had connected in some emotional way. I shrugged it off. Why it happened didn’t matter. This was their day, and I couldn’t be happier. At first, I thought the timing for this wedding was a bad idea. But as I stood by watching my best friend, I realized this was right.

After all the darkness over the last few months, we needed something to celebrate.

Ariel spoke first. “Marcus, I love you with all my heart. I’m so proud to be standing up here with you. I couldn’t imagine a better person to spend the rest of my life with.
