He stood up, finely dressed in a tuxedo, his champagne flute raised as he began his short speech, his eyes passed over the people seated at the wedding, musing bitterly to himself over the minor detail of his bare ring-finger.
"I've known this couple ever since they first started on their roller-coaster ride, six years ago. They may not have had a smooth run, I think we all agree I needn't highlight those times, but all-in-all they've stood by each other, keeping everything on track enough to make it thus far, and when all is said and done, I couldn't think of a better suited couple, even though she'll always be the one that got away" he tur
Gabriel's black nail scratched into the side of the wine glass.
"How did that infantile Daemonette best me? I mean, I'm several centuries old!" exclaimed Gabriel. Belliphaeron turned to Gabriel with a look of mild amusement on his face.
"You know exactly how, Gabe" he drawled, somewhat mockingly.
"Oh just because I fought a female, you assume I got 'distracted' and let my guard down?" said Gabriel sardonically.
"Wouldn't be the first time" chided Belliphaeron.
"That's beside the point..." growled Gabriel.

I do not know
if I am special to you,
but I try to show
that to me it is true,

How long we will last;
There is no way of knowing,
but no cracks are showing,
harsh words always pass,

and I hope it lasts forever...

to delicate love,
she is my fire
a gift from above...
when I see her,
all worry leaves,
when I hold her,
my heart feels free...
Only with her, do I feel happy...
