Sprite POV

Sersi and Ikaris are getting married today. I haven't seen Bia in two days. We are usually joined at the hip, always flirting or teasing with one another. Ajak still says no dating, bullshit in my opinion but whatever to please the queen. Makkari tells me to make a move since it's "obvious" that we like one another. And trust me I would have, if it wasn't for Ajak we would have been dating centuries ago.

"Can we just get this over with?" I heard a voice I knew all too well begging to get out of the wedding. Ajak came in dragging Bia by the ear to stand and watch her brother's ceremony. " I don't even want to be here, isn't this more like an adults only event." She tried to sway Ajak.

"Won't work, I already tried." I said pulling her on to the chair I was on, making her sit sideways on my lap so we didn't fall.

I know the next wedding we'll be going to. Makkari signed, motioning to us. Bia threw an apple at her.

"Yours and Druig's will happen before us." Bia snapped.

"We'd have a much cooler wedding than this one." I bent down and whispered in her ear, she looked back at me with pure shock. I am never this forward, I smirked when I saw her blush.

"You have to be there for your brother Bia, no excuses." Ajak said. Makkari pulled Bia off of me and started pulling her hair back into a messy bun. Once Makkari finished, Bia took small daggers and slipped them into her hair.

"If I have to go through this, I am adding whatever I want." She stopped anyone from saying anything.

"Sersi and Ikaris wanted to have a part in the wedding." I said finding the dress that Ajak and Ikaris picked for her.

"Give me a minute I have to go kill my brother for making me wear this." She said starting out the room.

"Oh no you are staying here and I helped pick this out so deal with it." Bia glared at Ajak and broke a vase across the room in anger.

"Please tell me I don't have to make a speech." Bia begged again going behind the curtain to change into the dress. I laughed knowing Ajak was making Bia say something.

"Yeah you have to say a few words at the dinner table." I said as she came out. I stared at her unable to speak, she was drop dead gorgeous. The whole room went silent, she looked like a goddess.

"Say something." She pleaded, biting her lip. Makkari walked up to her and smiled.

You look stunning. I can see why Sersi wanted you to be her maid of honor. You are perfect for this. Makkair signed to a very nervous Bia.

"Is Bia ready?" Sersi came into the room and stopped and covered her mouth to stop her from crying.

"Sersi is something wrong?" Bia asked, rushing to her side to comfort her.

"You're wearing the dress, it looks like it was made for you." Sesri said with excitement.

"Thank you but you're the bride, you are the one that is supposed to look beautiful." Bia said being humble.

"Stop being modest, you look gorgeous." Thena said coming in in her outfit. Bia turned back to me.

"I think I finally understand the difference between pretty and beautiful." I said, still in awe.

"Come on, we have a wedding to get started!" Ajak said happily as we walked to the ceremony.

The wedding ceremony went as planned. I didn't know what to do, all I could think about was the fact I wished it was Bia and I up there. Sersi and Ikaris kissed and we went over to have dinner. Everyone was very hungry, grabbing food for their plates. Ajak looked at Bia and Bia's eyes went wide, her speech, I held back a laugh at her face. Bia stood up bringing the tables attention with her. She started speaking and signing.
