Sirius kissed Gio's hand again, staring at him adoringly. He barely heard what Anya was saying, so focused on Gio.
Anya looked at the both of them with a serious expression on her face. "As we celebrate this bond of unity today it is important that we keep in mind that, while this is certainly an occasion of tremendous joy, the promises we witness here today are serious and life-altering commitments.
Love, it has been noted, is the reason we live. It is with simultaneous feelings of elation and expressions of respect that we proceed."
She paused for a moment, letting her words sink in. "At this time, before proceeding with the bonding ceremony, I would invite the couple to share their vows. Sirius, would you please deliver yours first?"
Sirius wet his lips, turning to face Gio and lift his veil to reveal his face. "Today I take you as my husband. I love you now as I've always loved you, and as I always will love you."
"And now Giovanni, would you deliver your vows?" Anya requested.
