It shouldn't mean anything, and yet Maketh's touch means everything. Her breath steadies then, like she is calm. Made the right choice.

Yes. This is how it's supposed to end.

Out the corner of her eye, she sees Sully. Standing there quietly. There's no expression of judgement or anger. Just nonplussed, but he shrugs without making such a fuss. Something about that seems familiar. That ready dismissive demeanor of his. Rey doesn't dwell on it much.

She turns her attention back to Maketh. She wants nothing more than to get out of there...

But first--

Pulling her arm back to bring Maketh closer, Rey only has to incline forward. Just a little. Pressing her lips to the other woman's.

It's something that she's wanted to do for a long, long time. She doesn't care about the reaction from the crowd, from her fiancé down the aisle. None of that matters to her right now.

Right now is what matters.

"Let's go," she agrees, smiling her first real smile that day.

Taking Maketh's hand, Rey goes to pull them both out of the ceremony, now a cacophony of murmurs.

They kiss. They kiss and it's not fireworks or world ending joy, but it feels right. Maketh takes a breath. Lets it go. And nods.

"C'mon."

She kicks off her heels so she can follow. She thinks she'd follow Rey just about anywhere, now.

It feels right are the thoughts on Rey's mind as she pushes her way through the park, not looking back to see the confused faces or varied responses from the guests.

Because yes, yes this is indeed happening.

And if it's one thing that Rey is certain of, there is more to come.
