No song for this chapter...but enjoy anyway ❤️
The timeline of these oneshots are not in order. The previous one took place after the wedding, but SaneKana takes place during the wedding reception.
The wedding reception was in a ballroom of the castle, and some merpeople came to the surface to attend it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kanae sat down at her table, sipping a cup of green tea.
She watched and smiled as she watched her younger adopted sister dance with her new husband.
The waltz continued to play, and although Kanae sat at her table, she secretly hoped that someone would come and ask her to dance.
There was a specific person she wanted to see and dance with, but she believed her chances were slim with him.
She looked around the room, hoping to find him, but she couldn't find him anywhere.
She sighed, and went back to sipping her tea.
Little did she know...
Her certain someone was thinking what she was thinking.

Sanemi sat across the room. He was wearing a simple black tuxedo and a pale purple tie to match his eyes.
Although he normally hated parties and liked the quiet better, he couldn't resist coming to the wedding...
Since his certain someone would surely be there.
His eyes scanned the room for her, and then he finally found her.
There was Kanae, sitting at her table, sipping a cup of tea.
Sanemi noticed her eyes looked sad, as she watched couples on the dance floor.
He leaned against the wall, wondering what kinds of options he had to ask her for a dance without looking dumb.
But, later, he couldn't think of anything.
Facepalming in frustration, Sanemi decided to just seize the moment.
He spotted a purple rose in a vase on a nearby table, and while no one looked, he snatched it for later.
Then, he walked calmly over to the mermaid queen, breathing heavily.
"Hello." he said to the woman in his normal gruff voice. She looked up, and her eyes began to sparkle happily.
"Hello, Sanemi!" Kanae said eagerly, motioning for him to sit.
He sat down, trying not to allow himself to blush. A waiter came and served them tea.
The two sipped their tea in silence.
"So, ah, how are you?" Kanae asked.
"Fine" was the quiet, monotone reply.
Kanae turned pink and looked away, while Sanemi looked away, focusing on sipping his tea.
Another moment passed while the two sat in silence.
Another waltz began to start, and Sanemi nearly jumped at his chance to ask Kanae for a dance.
"So...do you want to dance?" he asked, and Kanae nearly spit out her tea and almost fell out of her seat.
She cleared her throat, wiped her mouth gently with a handkerchief.
"I'm sorry, did I hear you right?" she said excitedly. "You want to dance? With me?"
