Rowan stopped moving and stared at the door as music started playing. It was slow and beautiful, nothing too traditional. He felt a smile slowly start to spread across his face as he waited.
Gay Romeo and Juliet?
Jeremy and his wife led Harrow into the room, white flower petals lining the isle, illuminated by spas LED’s. His gaze swept around the gorgeous room before finding Rowan at the from. His gaze softened into blissful happiness at seeing his stunning fiancé at the alter. He wanted to run to him, wanted to hold him in his arms and kiss him. He wanted Rowan more than anything.
Rowan stared at him with more love and affection than he ever had before, his eyes slightly watery. He could hear his heart beating loudly in his ears and didn't realize he had been holding his breath until Harrow reached the alter. He opened his mouth to say something but couldn't get anything else out except for a whispered, "Hi."
Harrow nodded gratefully as Jeremy took his place at the alter behind Rowan and Harrow. His wife hugged the two before finding a seat in the front, dabbing a few tears from her eyes as the ceremony started.
Harrow looked p at Rowan and chuckled softly "hi, love."he pressed a gentle hand to his cheek, stroking it with his thumb as Jremy started reading the speech
Rowan focused only on Harrow for the duration of the ceremony, his smile never wavering.
They finally reached the end and they were handed the rings.
(I’m gonna be honest I totally have no idea how weddings work)
(Same here XD)
Harrow gently broke away to usher along Sugar to the alter, laughing softly as the dog bounded towards them with a pillow strapped to her back, holding the rings. She jumped up on Harrow, giving him kisses and wagging her tail happily as he got the rings off her back. He kissed her head and allowed for Jeremy's wife to lead her away. He straightened and gazed into Rowan's eyes as he took his hand in his own and slipped the band on his ring finger, reciting a small speech he had written and mesmerized.
"With this ring, I give you my love, my heart, myself and my loyalty. i love no one else as I Iove you. You, my world and my reason, hold my heart. Solely you."
Rowan laughed and scratched behind Sugar's ear before straightening up. He listened to Harrow and felt his eyes filling with tears. He took the other ring and copied Harrow's movements. "You're the reason I get up in the morning. You're my light, my savior, and the only person on this earth that I want to spend the rest of my life with. Not a second goes by that I'm not grateful for you and how far we've come. I love you." He murmured, glancing up to meet his eyes.
Harrow’s eyes softened at his words. He glanced down at their intertwined hands before looking up and cupping his cheek, gently pulling him closer, waiting for the cue from Jeremy.
His friend smiled and nodded “if no one opposes then I proudly announce you married partners.” He stepped back and started clapping as they tenderly kissed, Harrow wrapping his arms around Rowan’s neck
Rowan pulled him close by the waist and kissed him back lovingly. He pulled away and laughed, resting his forehead against Harrow’s. “Finally..” He murmured.
“Finally indeed my love,” he murmured lacing their hands together before gently pulling away and leading him down the aisle
Rowan grinned, squeezing his hand gently as he followed him down the isle. He glanced to his side and noticed his mother smiling softly back at him, her eyes glassy with tears.
Harrow smiled and waved to a few friends. When he saw Rowan’s mother, he bowed slightly in respect and nodded his head in thanks. He gazed over at Rowan and pressed a kiss to his head, leading him out of the room to the reception room, pulling him into his embrace and swaying slightly
Rowan relaxed into his arms and buried his face in Harrow’s neck. “I love you..” He murmured, enjoying the few minutes of silence they had to themselves.
"And i love you my dear," he murmured, finally letting a few tears fall out of happiness. He tilted his head back and captured Rowan's lips with his, pouring every ounce of love and passion into the kiss as much as possible, not having had the time for a proper kiss at the alter. After what felt like blissful ages, harrow broke away slowly, letting his lips linger a bit "there, that should suffice until tonight." he murmured, tracing the length of Rowan's back with a gentle hand as they swayed in each other's arms
Rowan sighed into the kiss, running his fingers through Harrow’s hair out of habit. “Bold of you to assume I could ever get enough of you.” He murmured in reply, gazing at Harrow and wiping his tears away. “Those better be happy tears.”
"never will I ever get enough of you." he murmured with a small smile, leaning into Rowan's touch. He rested a kiss to his palm and nodded d"they are, don't worry. I don't think I could be sad with you in my arms, especially like this."
Rowan giggled and spun him around. “Thank god. Couldn’t have my husband feeling down, now could I?”
"No we couldn't" he spun in awkward circle, not really knowing how to dance outside of the classical sway. He stumbled back into Rowan's arms with an award laugh before glancing up and people started filing in.
“Time to greet our wonderful guests.” Rowan whispered in Harrow’s ear, sighing softly. “I wish I could spend every second alone with you..”
"wait a few more hours until we get home, love." he reassured, kissing him gently before leading him to where a small table was set up with close friends and family
Rowan grinned and followed him to the table, sitting down and happily chatting with his friends and family. He turned to Harrow occasionally, exchanging soft words with him, leaving a hand to rest on his knee.
Harrow laced their hands beneath the table, keeping them in his lap and drew small circles on the back of his hand while talking with friends. He leaned in close so only he could hear “I may or may not have book a flight for tomorrow night. You up for a little adventure?”
Rowan gasped softly and grinned. "Of course I'm up for it!" He replied excitedly. "Can you tell me? Or is it a surprise?"
He tilted his head in thought and smiled "I think I'lll keep it a surprise for now. I'm sure you'll pick it up once we get close though." he kissed the back of his hand and rested his head on Rowan's shoulder, nodding along as he went back into a conversation with his friend
A couple hours passed, they ate and talked with people. Rowan glanced around and found Harrow after finishing a conversation with a friend. He walked over and wrapped his arms around his husband from behind. “Come dance with me~” He whined quietly in Harrow’s ear, grinning.
Harrow glanced over his shoulder, politely dismissing himself from the group of friends. "Of course darling," he reached up and kissed his lips before gently turning in his grasp and taking his hand, his free hand wrapping around his waist. "you look gorgeous by the way, how dare you look so beautiful in front of so many eyes?"
Rowan followed him and wrapped his arms around Harrow’s neck. “It’s only for you, darling.” He giggled, gazing into his eyes. “I always forget you’re a little taller than me.” He murmured.
"that must be tough for you, huh?" he teased, pressing a kiss to Rowan's nose. "poor thing," laughing softly and brought their heads together and shutting his eyes with a soft smile
"This whole day has been perfect, especially you." He said softly, kissing him before laying his head on Harrow's shoulder, gently swaying along to the music. "I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you.."
"yes it has love," he hummed softly and the kiss and gently tugged him closer by the waist, their bodies flush against each other as the music continued. He kissed Rowan's head with a blissful smile and nodded "neither can I dear, neither can I."
(Time skip? maybe do a couple responses when they're on the plane and then when they land? or do you want to continue this bit a little longer?)
