My Old Hero

142: Marry You

The bridesmaids all got a full look at Emra in her wedding dress, and were blown away by how beautiful she looked. 

"Oh Emra, you're so pretty!" Saeko said. 

"I'm sure Takashi will be breathless when he sees you!" Kendra said. 

Emra had a nervous smile on her face, and Izumi noticed her hands were shaking again. 

'Is she that nervous? I don't think I've ever seen Emra this nervous before.' Izumi thought. 

"Hey Emra... can I talk to you for a second?" Izumi asked. 

"S-Sure..."

Izumi and Emra went into the room next door, and as soon as Izumi shut the door Emra was rubbing her arms and her eyes looked like they were going in a panic. 

"I don't know what I'm doing... I'm so scared..." Izumi looked at Emra. 

"Woah woah, Emra.... Are you okay? You're turning pale!" Izumi asked. 

"I-I don't know how everything will go! W-What if this was a mistake... what if... what if Takashi doesn't love me like he says?" Emra said. Izumi sighed and placed her hands on Emra's shoulders. 

"Emra... I've seen how you and Takashi are around each other... and there's magic when I see you two. He's told me how much he loves you, and I know you love him as much, if not more. So don't start second guessing all of this." Izumi said.

"Izumi..." 

"I'm gonna go and check on Takashi really fast!" Izumi yelled. 

She walked through the halls and was trying to figure out where Takashi would be. She turned her head and saw the familiar Raven blue hair. 

"Takashi!" she yelled walking up to him. He turned his head and was surprised to see Izumi walking up to him.

 "Izumi, what're you doing here? Shouldn't you be getting ready?" 

"Yes, but there's something more important I have to take care of first. It's Emra." Izumi said. Takashi quickly went into worry mode. 

"I-Is she okay? Is she sick, is she hurt, what is it?" Takashi asked. 

"No... she's scared." Izumi said. 

"S-Scared? Of what, me?" 

"No... she's scared that you don't love her. She... she is scared that everything won't work out for you two." Izumi said. 

"S-She's scared about that? Where is she?" Takashi asked. Izumi quickly stopped him. 

"You can't see her before the wedding starts!" Izumi said. 

"Then how can I make her feel better?" Takashi asked. Izumi tried to think and remembered the large but opaque window that Emra was in. 

"I have an idea." Izumi said.

Emra was walking back and forth in the room, she was so worried, that she took off her veil! 

"Emra!" Izumi said, opening the door. Emra looked up and walked up to the small greenette. 

"What did he say? Did he say... anything bad?" Emra asked in a worried tone. Izumi smiled gently and grabbed Emra's hands. 

"Everything will be okay, Emra. Just stand here for a second, maybe it will make you feel better." 

Izumi said, leading her to the opaque window. Emra stood right against the window, she felt the warm sunlight hit her back. The warmth eased Emra a little bit, Izumi noticed right away and then sneaked out of the room when Emra wasn't paying attention.
