As I got into the carriage feeling that nothing can destroy my wedding day.

~Time skip to the church~

There I stood behind the grand doors, waiting to be revealed to everyone.

I can hear the amazing muffled tune of the piano, The muffled quiet talking.

Then the doors open, the light hitting my face, the sudden breeze of the wind, the crowd appearing in my sight. There was my father holding out his gloved hand, I lightly lift up my hand and placing it in his, as he helps me down the steps, locking our arms together as he walks me down the isle. I felt beautiful, I felt so nervous to be married to the right beloved person of my life, my father began walking, I followed his steps to the alter looking up to see my future husband, there he was smiling as his blue hair was glistening in the light, his blue eyes shining. I keep my face straight focusing on making my way to the alter.

But then.. something catches my eye suddenly, from the corner of my right eye.. I see the other blue haired boy.. suddenly instead I was immediately petrified I froze for a second but continued going, suddenly the walkway felt long.. it felt never ending, I couldn't keep my eyes straight I kept looking around me, I started panicking, I can hear the murmurs from the crowd,

What where they saying?

I finally made it to the Alter, as my father lets go of me and stands to the side, I am greeted with my beloveds face, I can see he had noticed my strange behavior leaving a concerned facial expression on him..

Everything word that came out of the priests mouth sounded muffled, it was silent in the room except the priests.

Suddenly I feel my fiancée grabbing ahold of my hands lightly placing them in his

I looked around again, suddenly making eye contact with the distant blue haired boy.. he stood against the wall alone in the back

Why is he standing there? Had Ciel not allowed him to sit in the front seats with my family.. or maybe he decided not to join the others in seating arrangements... but why would he not want to sit there? Is it because... no, no I shouldn't focus on that nor the past... I.. I have to focus on the present, my wedding day.

I couldn't stop my eye contact with him, I felt stuck.. I suddenly felt a wash of regret hit me.. suddenly I felt a light squeeze on my hands. I gained focus on stared up to my fiancée. He had a firm face until I stared at him.

Even when getting married I can't forget the past, why can't I strive forward? I looked down for a moment, I felt so much guilt and regret. But! What am I feeling regret from?! It can't possibly be me regretting marrying my.. beloved.. no, no it can't be I refuse to accept that thought! This is what I'm suppose to be doing, not focus on my silly feelings.

I suddenly feel silky gloves lightly lift my face up to regain eye contact with my fiancée.
I felt ashamed I felt like I looked ashamed of something, I could feel his stare as if he senses somethings wrong, but it's not a concern more like angered and disliked, I can see his eyebrows furrowing a little..

To suddenly hear the words "I do" come from my fiancée's mouth.

"And do you Lady Elizabeth take Ciel to be your beloved husband in sickness and in health?"
Suddenly I froze once more... I felt no words come out of my mouth as, as if I couldn't say anything "Elizabeth..?"
Suddenly a snap in realization
"I Elizabeth Midford, Take Ciel Phantomhive to be my lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, or worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health until death do us part. I do.."

"You may now kiss the bride..." My face was lightly lifted as my husband connects our lips lightly, I felt nothing, no sparks no excitement anymore... I see from the right corner of my eye the doors shutting, looking to see the blue hair boy was gone.. he left.. no, why would he..

As our kiss ends the crowd cheers, we face forward to the crowd. As we walk down the isle.. hand in hand, to be finally announced Lady Phantomhive...

~at the after party~
I sat there at the grand table alone, as Ciel had gone his way to chat with other noble men... I felt ashamed and awful, I felt sick pit in my stomach

I felt as if I need a fresh air to cool down, perhaps maybe I could make my way to the balcony after informing Ciel. I get up making my way to Ciel, I tap him slightly, he faces me "Yes Elizabeth?" I sigh "Ciel.. I'm going to catch a bit fresh of air outside on the balcony for a little, would that be okay with you?"

"Yes, but is there a reason, are you feeling ill?" I was taken aback from his question, averting my eyes to the ground "N-no not at all I just feel the need to be out there for a moment..I'm okay, thank you for worrying.." Ciel had a question facial expression "Okay, if you need anything.. come to me."

"Yes of course" Ciel turns around to continue his conversation, I make my way to the balcony, stepping outside and feeling the fresh cold night Breeze, I shivered a little.

I made my way to the ledge of the balcony and held onto the railings, I looked out into the night sky, I sighed I felt so ashamed of myself, suddenly I hear something behind me "Well..well..well, what's lady Phantomhive doing out here?" I jumped at the sound of the voice behind me, I turned around immediately, I was speechless to see who it was "I thought.. I thought you had left a long time ago, I saw you walk out.." He grinned "Yes well, I had decided to come back, to show my support to my dear..dear brother." I scoffed, he continued on "I noticed something..." He walked towards me "What do you mean..?"

"I noticed something at the wedding.. you where acting strange after you had noticed me, your smile faded and.. and a panicked looked came across your face."

I backed away a little "No, I wasn't acting strange! Don't assume wrong, don't assume anything on how I felt when I saw you.. I'm happy, I'm happy with my marriage and nothing.. nothing is going to make me think twice about my choices.." He started chuckling lightly "It's really a shame... that you choose this wedding.. that you chose to marry my brother, even after everything we had together.. after all our moments.." It turned quiet neither of us made a move

"That, that was all a mistake.. I no longer have feelings for yo-"

"You're hiding your feelings for me, ever since my brother came back.. ever since that day you avoided me, as if you felt guilty, and to this day you still have this ashamed look on your face. Tell me, do you feel regret about marrying my brother, or perhaps do you regret anything with me..?" I was speechless for a second thinking of what to say "I regret everything with you.. marrying your brother is something I waited my whole life to do, this is what I'm meant to do! Not just wasting everything I've waited for to be with you, I..I have so much regret and guilt for, for how I betrayed your brother to be with you.. and the fact he still accepts me after what I had done with you really makes him wonderful... I don't want to think about my choices I don't want to feel anymore regret or guilt, I just wish.. just wish I had never associated with you.." He stood there watching me pathetically defend myself "You where happier with me-"

"The only reason I seemed happier with you because I didn't have regret throughout our whole relationship! Finding out I had betrayed your brother made me different with him, it ruined everything!" The blue haired boy came forward lifting my head with his black silk gloves, I just froze there. "I really wish you would consider more thought on what you actual regret doing" suddenly he moves his face forward connecting our lips together, he slides his tongue into my mouth, the kiss was passionate and exciting, suddenly I start thinking again "No!" I jerk my head, "No we mustn't do this anymore.. we can't I'm married Ciel!" I shove him away running into the building, there he was left standing while the night breeze ran through his hair.
