Needless to say, Akaashi was sweating with nerves the whole day. He checked himself one more time in the mirror, making sure that his white suit was perfect and without wrinkles. His mother and father stood in the doorway as he turned towards them.
"Ready?" His mother smiled. Gulping, he nodded with a broad grin on his face. Each took his arm and led him down to the forest. Beyond the trees, guests filled the chairs surrounding the old broken down pavilion. The stone columns and a single archway were covered in strings of golden poppies, bundles of forget-me-nots and white roses. Tears pricked at Akaashi's eyes as he saw Bokuto standing there, handsome as ever in a white suit that perfectly matched his own.
As always, someone had tried to style and tame the other prince's hair, but it was a gorgeous mess. Music began as his parents walked him down the isle of scattered, yellow, blue, and white rose petals. Bokuto's face lit up as he saw Keiji, that smile sending sparks through the Akaashi's heart.
When he had finally managed to make it to the foundation of the pavilion, his parents placed his hands in Bokuto's. And so the ceremony began.
"We are gathered here today..." The officiant began, but Akaashi didn't hear any of it. Not as he stared into those golden eyes across from him. Not as he realized that he got to be with the man he loved for the rest of his life.
After slipping their matching golden rings on to each other's fingers and saying their 'I do's' the officiant finally said, "I pronounce you prince and husband. You may now kiss your groom."
And it was the best kiss Akaashi had ever experienced. His arms wrapped around Bokuto excitedly as everyone applauded.
Koutarou pulled back slightly, a grin plastered to his face as he whispered, "I kept my promise. I made you fall in love with me."
Akaashi rolled his eyes and kissed Bokuto one more time before saying, "Yes you did, Koutarou. Yes you did."
