King Jayesh opened the door of his best friend's room . He was feeling somewhat giddy as it wasn't every day that he got to watch this old bachelor get married . Even if it was because Jayesh had forced him into this marriage, it was still a wonderful occasion .
Kaldrek had already dressed up for the ceremony in an eligant black outfit that was lightly trimmed in silver . He had not, however, bothered to fix his unruly black hair . Jayesh reflected that he had never actually seen Kaldrek with unmessy hair . He wasn't quite sure it was possible to fix it and decided to ignore it .
"Oh good, you actually got ready . And here I thought that you would run . " Jayesh grinned unable to resist teasing his oldest friend .

"I thought about it . . . . " Kaldrek murmured with a sigh, running his hands through his hair . "But I knew you would drag me back here and make me go through with this . "
"Zylvia is a good girl . "
"Never said she wasn't . Though I am pretty sure you only picked her because she is such good friends with your wife . "
"Well that doesn't mean she isn't a good match for you . And at least you consider her a friend, right? Not the worst thing to base a marriage on . "
Kaldrek raised one eyebrow, "You are a meddler, you know that right? You could have at least let me pick my own bride . "
"In which case you would never have gotten married . " Jayesh smirked . "Frankly you are terrible with woman, my friend . "
"Maybe I was totally fine with that . Not everyone needs to get married . "
"But if you don't get married you can't have kids . And if you don't have kids then who will be my kid's best friend . "
"So you just decide to have me get married and never even consult me about what kind of girl I might like? Some friend you are . " Despite saying this, there was a slight twinkle of mirth in Kaldrek's grey eyes .
"If you really minded that much you would have run . " The young king smiled hugely . "But since you didn't, you have to go through with it . I mean you wouldn't be so coarse as to actually jilt Zylvia at the altar right . "
"Of course not!" A slightly horrified look came unto Kaldrek's face . "The queen would skin me alive . "
Jayesh laughed at that, "Or boil you in a stew for insulting her best friend . Anyway, it is about time to go to your wedding . Unless you really do want to face my wife's wrath . "
The two friends left together . Afterall Jayesh wasn't going to let the groom out of his sight . If he did the groom might just decide to actually bolt . Jayesh was not actually confident he could drag him back if he did bolt, as his magic would give him an edge on his escape . Thankfully, it did not seem to occur to the sorcerer .
