By virtue of her own height, Mira catches the bouquet at a lot of weddings.
She’s doesn’t want to, especially as an angry preteen who didn’t even want to be at the stuffy weddings her parents forced her to go to. She hates being crowded with every other young girl girl into a tight circle, she doesn’t like it when they all squeal and dive, and she really doesn’t want to dance with whichever old man catches the garter.
(And she is simply not old or ready enough to confront the fact that she’d be expected to marry someone chosen for her, whether she wanted to or not)
And then she’s older, she helped save the world, and she’s with Rumi and Zoey in a way she never thought she would be. So wholly and completely happy that it scares her sometimes. That she can love and be loved back.
It’s in the middle of their current hiatus when Huntr/x is invited to an industry wedding. None of them know either the bride or groom, but it’s really just an excuse to promote their newest album. Mira, as always, couldn’t care less. But she gets to hold tight onto Zoey’s waist in group photos, and stole a slow dance with Rumi, and both of them made a point to subtly match their outfits to hers. All three of them flush with dance and drinks and the contact high of touch, holding onto each other as much as they’re allowed.
She’s not surprised when the bouquet toss happens, and it lands in her hands. She’s not even surprised when her first instinct is to look for Rumi and Zoey, because she already knows and has known for a long time that finding them will always be her first priority in any situation.
But she is surprised when Rumi flushes bright red, and Zoey’s eyes sparkle as she giggles equal parts embarrassed and mischievous. The tightness in her chest when Mira remembers that they are hers as she is theirs, and suddenly the concept of forever isn’t as scary and suffocating as she thought it would be-
And for the very first time, Mira… considers.
(It’ll take her another year to work up the nerve to ask, but she buys rings the next week)
