Hesitantly, Fushimi raised his hand and took yours. You stepped backwards as he rose from his sitting.
_____ pulled him to the dance floor where old and young couples had been there, swayed to the sides with companion of slow love song. You pulled him to stand in front of you then encircled your arms around his neck as he circled his arms around your wrist, both of you started to sway to the song too.
You looked at his eyes...
"I was really surprised when I saw you to the church. I thought you wouldn't come."
"I will never miss my moment to see you in a wedding dress. You look gorgeous." Fushimi said with affection in his eyes.
"Thank you" you smiled at him.
You looked at each other in silence while kept moving to the romantic song. Once, Fushimi took your hand and raised it. You looked at him with a questioning look. Fushimi simply nodded at you.
You got the hint and awkwardly turned your body around. As soon you faced him, you stared at him for a while then laughed. He smiled at you and put your hand back around his neck.
Not too long after, someone tapped your shoulder. You turned your head just to face the wedding planner.
"5 more minutes and you need to come to the front to cut your wedding cake"
You nodded and faced Fushimi back.
"Thank you for coming Fushimi." you said and pulled your hand away from his neck.
Fushimi halfheartedly pulled his his hand back from your waist.
"I'll see you again" you smiled and started to walk further from him.
But suddenly he caught your arm which made you turned around to looked at him.
"Yes?" you asked
"Just one quick question"
You nodded
Fushimi fixed his glasses and gulped..
"Have you............ ever love me?", he nervously asked.
Your eyes slightly widened because of the question, but you see so much worry in Fushimi's eyes. It was mixed emotion with slight sadness.
Your eyes softened and walked closer to him. You held his hands and looked into his eyes,
"I've always love you Fushimi. In the past, in the present, and I believe I will still do in the future." Fushimi looked into your eyes as you continued
"Although we have a bad past once, you still have a position in my heart as one of my precious guys. We were best friends before we become lovers. Now, we are back to be best friends and we will always be." You smiled as you let his hand go and hugged him tightly.
He hugged you back, wanting this moment to last.
"Be happy." You whispered to him as you pulled back and kissed his cheeks and walked away from him.
Reluctanly, Fushimi watched you as you walked further from him.
.........................
He had been back at his place, sat on his bed with blank expression, with his suit still on.
His hand slowly went into his tuxedo's pocket and took out the recorder. He pressed the stop button then the rewind. He let it for a few minutes before he pressed the stop button and then pressed play.
'Have you.......... ever love me?' he could hear his own voice.
After a moment, he could hear your voice,
'I've always love you Fushimi. In the past, in the present, and I believe I will still do in the future.' he pressed stop.
He pressed the rewind again, 3 seconds later he pressed stop then play.
"I always love you, Fushimi" he pressed stop and repeat it.
"I always love you, Fushimi" he closed his eyes and rewind the record.
He gulped when he heard your voice again. His eyes were still closed when a tear dropped from his eyes. He kept your voice in repeat.
It was real. It was you who said those sentences. Not his imagination or his illusion of you.
'At least a part of her stay with me' Fushimi open his wet eyes.
'This place will feel less empty' Fushimi held the recorder tightly.
'And I won't get insane' He repeated the record again and again.
"I always love you, Fushimi"
