You're My Best Friend

Quite truthfully, Caterina did not really remember a lot of the day's events. Most of it was a hazy, happy blur. Most weddings were probably like that for the bride. There were a few key moments which stood out for her though, and those were moments of the day that she would remember forever. It was an entirely simple affair. Neither Caterina nor Abel had wanted much of a fuss for their wedding. They were perfectly happy with a simple ceremony held at the little villa of Caterina's in the Lake District.

A local priest performed the ceremony, and most of the people attending were other AX members. Though Caterina's brothers did attend as well as Esther and Ion along with various representatives of Albion and the Empire. But there were no more than fifty people here, and most of them were friends. It was a perfect spring day, and between the lake that stretched out in front of them and the flowers that decorated the villa's terrace garden, the setting was as beautiful as any cathedral.

She and Abel stood beneath a bower covered in climbing roses and made their vows in front of the priest. Abel wore his usual black uniform while Caterina's gown was a simple empire waist dress of ivory chiffon. Her only decorations were the wide bronze silk sash on her dress and the flowers in her hair. But Caterina knew that her smile was brilliant, and Abel's matched it. It wasn't exactly eloping, which is what they had originally planned on doing, but it was close enough, and they were happy with the results.

Over their joined hands, the two of them said their vows and exchanged their rings. The priest spoke briefly, and then, finally, the religious ceremony came to an end with the words, "You may now kiss the bride."

Abel winked at her before leaning in to kiss her. That really was Caterina's clearest memory of the whole thing. The kiss, and then the moment where they had pulled a part and smiled at one another. Caterina was here with Abel, her best friend and now her husband. There was currently peace, they were happy, and they were together. What more could she ask for?
