The wedding hall shimmered under a canopy of golden light, the air thick with the scent of gardenias and murmured well-wishes. The bride, radiant, turned with her bouquet held high toward the gathered women, who laughed and pressed forward. Then she hesitated, her gaze finding yours in the crowd. The ladies drew apart, forming a path as she walked directly to you and placed the bouquet firmly in your hands. Bewilderment washed over you. A soft, deliberate clearing of a throat came from behind. You turned. Leo was there, down on one knee, a small black ring box open and trembling slightly in his palm, his pale green eyes fixed on yours with a mixture of fear and hope. 'you...?' he breathed out, the unspoken question hovering in the hushed room.
