That's just beautiful. I kind of hated it at first how Colin broke Bradley's heart but at least Colin got to stop the wedding in the nick of time LOL. I have to pity the bride.

That is one beautiful pic. Is that a manip or seriously Colin Morgan on stage kissing a blonde actor?

[shadecat]

Actually, it's from a play deets here. That's not a manip - just someone who looks an awful lot like Colin Morgan. YAY FOR US!

Colin had the sense to know that Bradley's a keeper. :)

Thanks for the comment ♥

I know, right? That's the only reason I couldn't resist. And if you blur your eyes, that's totally Bradley ;)

I love that Colin came in the nick of time but boy I feel bad for the bride. Well done.

[shadecat]

I was going to try to work in that the bride sort of KNEW that Bradley wasn't really in it.. but.. *shrug*

:) Thank you.

Colin breaking Bradley's heart and then rushing in to put it back together again was emotional and ultimately freeing, though I'm left feeling terrible for the poor woman Bradley has just jilted. I loved this exchange: “Marry me.”

His first instinct was to move back, say no, stop the hurt before it happened again. Staring into Colin’s eyes, he couldn’t make the words come. Bradley saw the tremble in the hand holding the box; making the silver ring shimmer as the light caught it. A choked laugh burst out of Bradley’s mouth at the absurdity of the situation. “You’re proposing to me at my wedding. Perfect timing, Col.”

Colin’s eyes never wavered from Bradley’s as he replied, “It will be if you say yes.” There's such vulnerability and hope in Colin, it's no wonder Bradley can't help but say yes. The image of these two slipping out that window, racing off to a future together, is breath taking.

That photograph certainly is inspirational! *stares some more*

*I* feel bad for the girl, but in my head I know that she KNEW that he didn't really love her.

That part was achy. IN A GOOD WAY!

Really glad you liked it. Thank you for the comment :)

BEAUTIFUL. Simply - I can't even put it in words. It made my heart ache at first and then flutter in hope and - then they got their happy ending. *sighs happily*

Enjoyed it a lot. <3

[shadecat]

*claps* Yay. I'm glad the feeling I was trying to put in came across well.

I love a happy ending. I can't do UST and sad woeful endings. It makes me cry.

:) Thank you for the comment. ♥

[emerish]

Very well, in fact. I even memm'd it, so yeah. *g*

I'm sucker for hapy endings, too.

<3

[shadecat]

Aww's. Now I feel all touched and speshul. *blush*

If I ever read anything with a sad ending, I bawl my eyes out for half an hour, then immediately go find something fluffy enough to rot my teeth. I can't leave it on a sad note.
