Seizing the Moment... Finally
None
Nairn grinned as she snickered, and then denied his request to leave the party without seeing anyone else. He'd expected it, and his grumbling was playful. The man listened as she described how she'd given Ruth no choice, no chance to say no without ruining her wedding day. You're a snake, my love. He teased, trailing his thumb under one of her eyes, as he leaned to whisper in her ear, He deserved to walk you down the aisle. He got us here.

He'd eventually found out Ruth had stuck around until he was sure that Nairn wasn't going to find a reason to leave, that night, so long ago. The man truly was a good friend; especially for how he looked after her in Nairn's absence. It was something he couldn't repay in full.

Megara was eagerly agreeing to a dance, and Nairn let her lead the way. He became quieter, the further into the mass of the celebration, and his gaze rarely left her person. They settled for a slow dance, in the center, and he was thankful the dance floor was currently empty. It made the fact people were watching them less worrisome.

His chin rested on the top of her head, as they danced with only the music and quiet murmur of the party to listen to. Too many nights, he'd dreamed about her — about marrying her — and he'd finally done it. Nairn smiled into her hair, Ma vhenan. I am sorry that I made you wait so long. Quietly spoken, she'd be the only one that heard him.
