Seducing The Ice Queen

Both the grooms stood in the middle of the big dais, facing each other. Their hands clasped together, their vows were said in a clear voice. On one side, I.M face glowed with happiness while Felix had the same customary expression on his face that members of SKY had seen over the years. But for those who knew him, they could see the sparkle in his eyes. His patience and his love had finally succeeded. 

The journey to love had been a long one from giving up their love for each other to bend to societal boundaries and parental expectations or forego their career to hide their involvement from the world. But now they were finally here. About to proclaim the vows they had made to each other in their hearts in the witness of their loved ones.

Felix looked at I.M and almost rolled his eyes for choosing Apollo to become the emcee. The guy loved to give long sermons while all Felix wanted to do was say the vows out loud and kiss the heck out of I.M. Felix wondered if I.M would mind if he punched Apollo in the middle of his long-winded speech. But then decided, it was no use upsetting I.M today. And when the man had finally droned on for three full minutes, he said," And now Felix and I.M, please turn to each other and hold hands, oh they are already doing that... Well then, you have both written your own vows, so who's going first?"

I.M smiled and his soft but clear voice echoed through the small room," Being loved deeply by someone gives you strength while loving someone deeply gives you courage. With Felix I have had both. From this day on, I vow to love you every day of my life, with every breath so that we will only ever hold each other in our hearts until death do us part."

A round of applause echoed and after this, Felix's lazy voice echoed," To burn with desire and keep quiet about it is the greatest punishment we can bring on ourselves. I.M has saved me from this punishment. From this day on, you are not just me soulmate but my legal partner. I don't even know how to express so much happiness. I vow to love you forever and always."

Another applause dotted through the room along with a few sniffles as Apollo's voice for in," You can exchange the rings to seal your vows."

Felix and I.M exchanged the rings at the same time and then without waiting for Apollo to say the next words,"Felix pulled I.M by the tie and sealed their lips."

"And ladies and gentlemen, we can now say that I.M and Felix and legally husbands! Guys! You need to get a room. Don't mind us. we have already given you the red envelopes and now we are going to eat the delicious food. We do not want any dog food please.. Go go."

And with that, Apollo began to throw candy the wedding candy over the couple who joyfully separated from the kiss but still held hands. 

Ye Heng held her small handkerchief to her eyes as she dabbed at her tears once again. The ceremony had been so beautiful. Of course the news of these two men being a couple had earned quite a scandal six months ago where people had even doubted Gyeom, Apollo and Adam's sexuality and even tried to shame them for being good friends with a 'gay couple'. But all this had not been able to break them apart and finally Felix and I.M had carved their own path.

Gyeom shook his head at his soft-hearted girlfriend. Taking the handkerchief from her hand, he said,"What are you so sad for? Don't tell me you are pining for Felix and I.M?"

"Ha! You have me firmly under your spell. As if I could pine over someone else. I am just so happy about the wedding. It was so beautiful and sacred. I don't understand why people have to object to love!"

Gyeom smiled at her simple innocence and carefully dabbed the make up under her eye where a tear still clung to her lashes. "Are you going to cry at our wedding too?"

"Of course no.."

Her eyes widening like saucers, Ye Heng asked,"Can you repeat yourself? I think I heard you wrongly.."

"I asked if you were going to cry like this at our wedding too? If you are, please try not to. Otherwise people will think that I am forcing you into marriage.."

"You.. you have not even proposed to me.." Ye Heng stuttered out the words. She had actually wanted and hoped that Gyeom would propose to her but he had stubbornly maintained their 'girlfriend-boyfriend' relationship. And now he was talking about getting married."

"Haven't I? Do I need to propose really? But why? Would you reject me?"

"How will you know if you don't ask? And actually, I just might." Ye Heng glared at him before turning away her head and looking at the coue who was now being photographed. Time has done them justice. They had always been handsome men but now happiness made them shine even brighter than the sun. She watched as little Adel jumped between them and the two men immediately bent down a bit to listen to her.

But all this was on the surface. Deep down she was already thinking about the hope that Yu Gyeom had planted inside her. Were they really going to marry some day? Because of her inner thoughts, she failed to notice that I.M and Felix were now looking in her direction and the photographer had also turned his lens towards her. The entire hall turned silent and soon the lights were dimmed and a small spot light was thrown in the middle, where little Adel stood, holding two red roses in her hand.
