Wedding day. The happiest day of someone’s life that signalled the start of a new chapter.

Yet, you couldn’t help but feel a sense of discomfort and anxiety as you hid in your dressing room, getting psychologically ready to walk to the altar, all dressed up in a gorgeous white gown.

It didn’t help that there were people you didn’t even know coming from everywhere just to see you kiss your soon to be husband. You truly weren’t one for big celebrations and preferred to keep it small— but you couldn’t be so selfish to not make this important day such a big event, right?

You jolted with a little gasp when you suddenly felt the lithe yet strong arms of your older brother encircling your waist from behind, who sensed your unease. His thumb drew slow circles on your stomach, as if to soothe you.

You were used to Izumi’s protectiveness and clingy antics at this point, not even questioning his morbose obsession with you becoming even stronger since you got engaged.

Various time he told you to dump your fiancée, claiming he is not good enough for you and that he will just hurt you. You shrugged it off, thinking he was just being a possessive and protective older brother who couldn’t accept seeing his little sister growing up so fast.

“You look so beautiful, princess.” his arms gripped your waist tighter, pulling you closer to him, murmuring against your cheek. “But you know, you could always cancel the wedding.”
