No Regrets

I wasn’t too sure how it happened. Once second we were going over battle plans. The next he had me pinned up against the wall, and I had my arms locked around his neck as he kissed me.

Funny how things happen.

Well, that’s how it started. I felt so guilty for letting it happen afterward. I felt like I was betraying his wife’s memory…and Shinoda’s. But there was something about Whenua Metru that I just loved. With Shinoda there had always been that sense of danger. The bad-boy type. I like that.

But with Whenua it was different. He was safe. Kind, gentle, soft-spoken… I could spend the rest of my life with him and be perfectly content. I hated how we had to keep it a secret at first. He knew it too. But we both knew that it was simply too dangerous to go public with the relationship. Especially since I was a double-agent.

A sigh as I stare at my reflection. I look really pretty without my glasses. Contacts were a good choice. I brush a soft blonde curl out of my hair and I find myself regretting my choice of dress. I could clearly see the scar Shinoda gave me on my back when I turned around.

“Aaralyn?” I look up to see Vakama. He’s been so good to me in the past few months. “They’re ready.”

I nod, swallowing hard. This is it. I took his hand and he linked my arm in his. He gave me a wide grin. “Don’t worry. You look beautiful, and he’ll be blown away. This is always the scary part. Once you get up there, all your doubts will go away.”

I nodded as the music started. This was all so new for me. “Promise?”

Vakama chuckled. “I promise.”

We walked through the double doors, my heart skipping a beat. Then I saw him. Vakama had been right. All my fears suddenly washed away as I saw him smiling at me from the alter. A smile crept onto my lips. I was getting married. I found it increasingly impossible to concentrate on anyone but Whenua.

He reached out and took my arm. I looked up into his eyes, and I knew I had made the right choice.

This was where I belonged.

Okay, so Saya was saying how poor Whenua and Aaralyn are always miserable, so I went out on a limb and let them be HAPPY. XD I wrote this in a few minutes, so I don't know how great it is, are there may be a few errors... ^///^

So this is deticated to Saya.
