I close my eyes and let myself collapse back onto the bed, laughing as I bounce. The sheets are so soft, and it’s so opulent. It’s everything I ever imagined it would be. A beautiful room with a large bed with white sheets and a picture window with a beautiful view. Everything I could possibly need in a honeymoon sweet. It’s kind of hard to believe that after all this time it’s finally mine.

For a moment I hold my hand up above my head, looking at the simple gold band there. I almost can’t believe it. Can’t believe that after all this time it’s finally happened.

All I’ve ever wanted is to be a wife. It sounds silly and old fashioned but it’s true. All my life, I just wished that I could be someone’s wife. It was so cruel in my eyes that I was never going to get a chance because of government rules. Though after they’d both left school and moved in together Amane had told her she considered them married, it wasn’t the same as actually being married.

But now it had all changed, and everything was going to be fine. I’ve been entered into Amane’s family register. Not that Amane’s family are best thrilled to have me there but they’d decided in the end they’d rather gain a daughter then loose one, even if they would have preferred a son.

I sit up, slowly, and look over to where Amane is waiting, watching me with a smile.

“You look beautiful, Ōtori Hikari,” she says, smiling and walking over to me. I reach out my hand to take hers and she obliges, squeezing my hand gently.

“Thank you, my wife.”
