***Sebastian's POV***
"Everybody here is aware that I have been best friends with Mark for far longer than I care to admit. What you may not know is that I would choose no other aside from him. Mark is my best friend, my sounding board, my biggest pain in the ass. Mark is my biggest supporter and the one reason why I met the love of my life. Mark Royals is a man among boys and a blessing sent in a world where we often face more than we can handle alone. Thank God that I never felt alone. Mark has been beside me since we were so very small. I could not imagine what my life would have been without him to help me along the way." Grey begins his toast by making my eyes sweat. I covertly run my cloth napkin below my weeping orbs. I'm going to have bags beneath my eyes by morning.
"Now, let me be honest, I never would have thought that my bestfriend batted for my team. It would not have changed anything if I had. Sorry, Mark, you just aren't my type." Grey winks at my husband. I chuckle as Mark feigns disappointment. I will deal with that later.
"In an effort to be transparent, Mark made it seem as though he worshipped women. I mean how could I have known?" Grey shrugs his shoulders. I expected a little ribbing with these two as best men. I am just sending a small prayer up above to let this be good.
"I don't believe the gods above saw this one coming. If they did, they did one hell of a job delivering a massive surprise. Thank God that he did. Sebastian Royals, you are a magician." The mention of my name has my suspicions alerted. I sit up straighter, tightening my hand around Mark's as his fingers attempt to find and close any open space in our grip.
"You walked into a small bar and blew this man away. It was instant, intense and most importantly you made your imprint on Mark's heart seemingly without effort." Grey takes a breath. I am not going to lie, I did not intend to take Mark's heart at the moment that I saw him. I just felt this pull and suddenly, I couldn't stop my feet from moving. I couldn't let that man walk out of that establishment without hearing my name grace his perfect lips. I was completely entranced. I still am. The thought makes my body feel warm. I lift our hands to my lips as I press my mouth to his skin. Gods above, I am the luckiest person alive.
"In a moment of complete awe, I watched as Mark melted into your arms. It has been the most heartbreaking, heartwarming and romantic thing I have witnessed. Every moment with the two of you has been a journey I would take over and over. This day makes me just as happy as the one I spent intertwining my future with Mak. To the two grooms, Mark and Sebastian, I wish you a life filled with long nights, intimate mornings and grace for the in-between. May this life finally hand both of you every wonderful thing you deserve. It has been a wild ride. It is only the beginning. We will be here every step of the way." With a final raise of Grey's champagne glass, our best friend sends a cheers in our direction. I watch from my peripheral as Mark presses his palm over his heart. I gently swipe my finger below his eye to catch the escaping emotion. Grey did good. He did very good.
"That was sweet." Alex rolls his eyes playfully while pulling the attention to him. I know Alex; he most definitely does not want to come off as emotional. Alex doesn't play sweet. Well, for Gavin, Alex would play a flying monkey. I am not Gavin though.
"Sebastian, hmm, let's see. Remember the time you just knew that your soulmate was Roger Jefferson. If not, let me remind you. Roger was a curly redhead, soul less motherfucker. God, he was anything but attractive. Annoying, that is the word for this 14-year old creature. Nothing about him screamed forever, except maybe his nasal drip. That kid would not give you a moment of his time, let alone a date for the future. Watching you pine away for Roger was the bane of my existence." I listen as Alex brings up my mulligan. Let me explain, I was 12. I have grown since then.
