October.

The sparkling light was flashing on the floor and everyone's attention was on the couple who were about to dance on that floor. He extended his hand towards her and she gently kept her hand on his palm, and in return she received a soft kiss on her knuckle.

"Don't they just look perfect with each other?", the bride said who was just mesmerized to look at her best friends.

"They indeed do!", the groom agreed on the fact.

He then pulled her closer and gently grabbed her waist and she kept her hand on his shoulder. They both looked at each other and smiled.

"Let's go Sugarcube~", he said.

"Yes, let's go kitty~", the beautiful music started playing and they both started swaying with each other.

~Flashback~

August.

The moon was shining bright, the breeze was cool and calming and Juuzou was corrupted with loneliness and a sad feeling. He was leaning on the railing and many thoughts were going on in his mind.

When did this feeling of jealousy took birth in me? When...? I am supposed to be happy for them... they announced their marriage date and I'm supposed to be happy!! Then why... why am I feeling so jealous of them...? It's suffocating me... I want to see Lizzie and Hanbee happy but just like them, I wanna be happy too! I... want love too... I too want someone to hug me tightly and never let go... I too want someone to kiss me... or maybe it's not just 'someone'... It's her... I love her... I'm not scared of telling her but she doesn't even takes it seriously... I know... I know that she deserves better but... my eyes and heart would hurt to see her with someone else... also I'm not perfect... No one would ever be happy with me... and I don't want to force my feelings on her... If I do, I will lose her... not only as a lover but also as a best friend... I don't want to lose her... I can bear the pain of seeing her with loving someone else but... the pain of losing her... Once again... would hurt... who knew that this girl whom I met unknowingly few years ago would be so precious to me now... I want to yell at her that how much I love her but what if... what if I lose her... what if she starts hating me... what if she doesn't wants to see me again... what if-

"OYY DUMBASS! Whatcha doing?", Juuzou's train of thoughts was cut off in-between when Kiyoko interrupted.

"Nothing...", Juuzou said softly.

"It's 2pm, I thought you would be sleeping in your room!"

"Why are you awake...?"

"Well... Honestly, I couldn't sleep!! I'm so much excited about the fact that THEY ARE FINALLY GETTING MARRIED!!! I am SO HAPPY for Lizzie!! My heart is already overwhelmed to imagine Lizzie in her wedding dress!! AND GUESS WHAT!? She gave me the responsibility to decorate her wedding venue!!! I have already decided the flowers that would be used to decorate the place!! And within a few weeks we are also going to see her wedding dress!! And...", Kiyoko then looked at Juuzou and she realized that all the things she just said didn't even reached his ear because he was lost, lost in his own world. She then kept her hand on his shoulder, "Juuzou... Is everything ok...?"

Juuzou's thought was once again interrupted, he looked at Kiyoko, "Uh- sorry... I didn't paid attention to what you said, I am sorry!"

"Juuzou, there's nothing to say sorry about, tell me about yourself...", Kiyoko then cupped his cheeks, "What happened to you? Aren't you happy about them...?"
