Love Live! Dear Song (Maki Nishikino x Male reader)

Chapter 15

As I tried to calm my nerves some before the ceremony, I sat on the front row of seats in the seat on the left, closest to the aisle. Today's the day that me and Maki get married. As I look forward towards the altar, just what today is finally starting to sink in, me and Maki's love is cemented as eternal today. Thinking about such a realization makes me so joyful and I could feel my cheeks rise into a huge smile unconsciously at the thought.

I checked my watch and as the time came closer to when the guests would arrive, I got up from the seat and headed up to the altar. As I waited there, guests began to trickle in, both family and friends. Maki had mentioned that she had invited some friends she made in her time as an idol who I don't know if I've met before.

Eventually it looked like most of the seats were taken up by guests and soon after, Maki entered the room and with a bouquet in her arms, began to walk down the aisle with Mr. Nishikino beside her. Looking at her and how amazing she looked, I felt a melange of wonderful feelings rise up in me.

When she arrived at the altar, we stood across from each other, gazing into each other's eyes. The officiant then began. "Dearly beloved, we are gathered here to join Y/n L/n and Maki Nishikino in holy matrimony. We will now begin. Maki Nishikino, do you take this man as your husband, to love and honor as long as you live?"

"I do." Maki answered

The officiant then turned to be and continued "Y/n L/n, do you take this woman as your wife, to love and honor as long as you both live?"

Maki has been special to me for so very long and with zero doubt, I answered "I do."

"And now, by the power vested in me, I pronounce you husband and wife, you may now kiss the bride."

We took a step forward before we shared a kiss that although brief, was something so very perfect and special. Maki threw the bouquet out and it was caught by a girl with short brown hair and pink eyes.

At the reception, everyone celebrated me and Maki's marriage. Me and Maki had our first dance, and after we celebrated together, I said "By the way, I have a little surprise for you." I then turned to face the band and gestured as if I was gesturing them forward with all but my index and middle fingers down. The band, noticing my gesture, stopped playing. I then walked up onto stage and said "It took some work hiding the fact I was composing this from you, but hopefully it'll have been worth it."

I walked onto the stage and after grabbing my guitar, which had been waiting backstage, I stepped in front of the microphone and started to sing.

Before we even met, I was inspired by a song I had heard her play that became dear to me, it was what made me want to connect to her at first. Then on our first date, we played what would become another song that became dear to me. Throughout our relationship, there have been times we connected through music and shared moments we won't forget. Now, I just hope this can become another song that will be a dear moment for us.

Once the song ended, I placed my guitar where it was before and left the stage to join Maki once again. We kissed again and I said to the wonderful woman I was lucky enough to marry, "I love you so much Maki. The one thing I hope for the most is that I can continue to stay beside you and enjoy so many wonderful moments together."

A/n: And so Dear Song comes to an end. Thank you all for enjoying this book. I had a solid idea for the general plot from the start and I was able to expand it from there. I'm happy with how this story went and I hope you'll all enjoy my later works as I keep going. Before the end of the week I'll be beginning my next story with a new heroine.
