Today was the big day, everything was in place and the masses were beginning to show up and enjoy eachothers company. The church was dashing and he had done everything according to his wife-to-be's wishes. Everything seemed to go according to plan and everything was smooth, but he felt uneasy, nervous. Itching with anticipation he began to wipe his brow with a small handkerchief he had brought. For the first time in his life, sitting in the Bridegrooms room John felt nervous. His heart was pumping, this was scarier than any target he had faced in the Enchanted Forest. And then there was his best man, the one and only David Nolan, otherwise known as Prince Charming.
One of the other groomsmen brought him a bottle of water which he shakily brought to his mouth and he was pale as a ghost. He wasn't scared to be married, what he was scared about was messing up and scaring Elsa off. Which was a very real possibility. He bit his lip and tried to calm his heart rate down but to no avail. He looked around and noting that David was around and by his side at all moments, he finally for the first time in his life. Reached to him for help.
"When you married Snow, were you this nervous?" he'd ask "Did it scare you out of your wits that your past could hurt her if she found out?" and that's what scared him the most. What if he couldn't be a good husband? What if he did something to scare her off? The thoughts terrified him, and for once, the Assassin had been bested.
It was only a matter of time before they'd have to go to the altar....

David sat down at one of the chairs that were placed in a line next to the wall of the bridegrooms room. Arms leaning onto his upper legs, supporting his upper body where the fabric of his suit crawled up a little bit and tightened around his chest. David followed Scar his movements with his eyes, not able to keep himself from smiling by the sight of a man who was nervous to get married. The man was even that nervous that holding a simple bottle of water looked like a huge challenge, let alone drinking from it. David fold his hands together while he waited for the signal that would allow Scar to enter the church and install himself at the altar. Only then his attention went to the soon to be wed man who started to ask him questions about David’s marriage. “Well…” he took a deep breath and sat up straight before continuing. “The first time me and Snow married we weren’t nervous because it was very unexpected and private. Only my mother and Lancelot were there. But the second time…. It was actually Snow who was more nervous than I was. I didn’t think about all of the people that were going to be there, I thought more about how much of an honor it was to be able to marry the love of my life two times.” David gave him a smile. “It’s going to be okay Scar. Where are you this scared about? That ring is not going to be the end of your life, it’s just a new chapter.”John Pride/Arno Dorian/Scar

Listening to his Best Man and comrade, he kept his gaze outside and felt his nerves just calm. He looked down at his suit and fixed his bowtie and kept himself in the most dapper condition he could muster. Hearing David speak of how it felt like it was it was an honor to marry Snow twice. But then he heard the name Scar and he tensed a bit. Why couldn't they just let the past go? He didn't exactly hold that reputation to a big standard. But it did feel good to once and a while get what he wanted when he could intimidate those who tried to cross him.
"John, and that's just it David, it's a new chapter" he'd quickly say "It's a chapter that I fear might just be one that will overwhelm me.....I'm going from a dangerous man to.....well....a faithful husband, I don't know what marriage is like, and more than likely down the road in the future we'll have children.....I don't even know how to be a parent!" John looked to David once more. "Sometimes I feel like my reputation as Scar is going to get in the way of it....I just want to be the Arno Dorian she remembers David, I want to be Johnathan Pride. Not some.....murderous monster who killed with nothing to show for it..."
And there he went again trying to downplay the good that his actions had brought. It was because of him that there were people in the Enchanted Forest that had the basic freedoms to be human. He stood up for the common man, and fought against tyranny. But he took a deep breath to calm himself once more. Looking to his best man once more.
"She's the one, I just know it.....why would I want to change so much?" every single time he thought of her he began to feel butterflies. It might be obvious to those who knew John well that he had made some changes in his routine just to accommodate for Elsa. He poured more money into charitable causes, he was smiling more. And perhaps the best change of all, he wasn't drinking as often.
All this because one woman came back into his life, a happy ending never seemed so close....

David realized that when he said the name Scar he wasn’t exactly being tactful. He remembers on how much John disliked that name of his past self now but to David it was a name he knew for years, so it kept feeling more as the right one to say. It didn’t take long for John to start talking about children in the future and his worries that went together with that. David couldn’t hold in a chuckle when he mentioned all that. “John… maybe try to focus onto what is about to happen right now instead of thinking way too much time ahead. You’re not being a father just yet, there is still time to worry about that part of your life, for now just focus on your marriage.” David stood up from his chair and walked towards John who apparently was more afraid than he’d thought. A few taps on the man’s shoulder brought his attention back to the present. “John, Elsa knows who you are and who you were. It doesn’t matter what kind of a person you were but it matters on who you are now. And Elsa clearly loves that person and wants to share her life with you. I wouldn’t worry that much John. And besides, there’s still me and some other who can visit and start complaining against.” David gave the man a playful smile. David loved his wife with whole his heart and wouldn’t be able to think about a life without her, but even for him there were times that he just needed some time for himself or some time to vent about little things that dared to annoy him. It was the way it goes. They might be a true loves couple but even them sometimes had issues to work upon. You had to keep fighting for your relationship, every minute of the day.

John smiled at David's joke about letting him vent and complain if things got a little sour between him and Elsa at times, such was marriage. Finally after a long while of silence and calmed nerves later, John looked to his best man and sighed "Can you keep a secret?" he'd ask, waiting for the nod. "I'm a Demigod, my mother is the Goddess of Love Aphrodite, and she hates the very thought of me marrying Elsa..." he was unaware that this would all be revealed in the spectacle that would happen later on that night to interrupt the wedding. But he looked to David, placing a hand on his shoulder. "This is why I'm so nervous, by marrying Elsa I am going against my mothers wishes.....she's alive, and in Storybrooke David" John was all of a sudden calm, but looking to the man he'd known for years he had that look in his eye. He was ready to make that next step but in doing so, he was going to be hurting someone he cared about.
John hated being in this kind of a dilemma, two women who he cares about, one can't stand the other. His eyes looked pained and he looked down for a small moment. Biting his lip. "I mean, I should be overjoyed that she's alive but, I can't help but worry she's going to do something drastic to Elsa" taking a deep breath he'd calm himself once more "And I won't be able to do anything about it...." there was that twinge of anger again. Mother Superior, who was coming in to check on them, caught on quickly and moved to calm the man. Talking him down and looking him dead on in the eye. Receiving a few nods from John signifying that he'd be alright, he'd look to David.
"Well, either way, I'm prepared to spend the rest of my life dealing with whatever's thrown at me"

Charming glanced at clearly worried and perplexed man before him. The interesting question was John Pride/Arno Dorian/Scar had asked if he could keep a secret. Unlike his adoring wife David was exceptional at keeping secrets a tiny smirk curled the man mouth in amusement which quickly faded by what John stated. Sighing running a hand over his face David moved away to go stare out the window. This was in fact troubling news, as a boy his mother would tell of myths of the gods they would be Myst Havens own version of fairy tales. Something that little boys and girls would imagine daring to dream of slaying monsters and becoming hero's. does Elsa know ? About your bloodline and of your mother's feelings toward her? this would be something one tells the other in your life. Not to is only irresponsible and uncaring. You both their live your life and countless others in jeopardy just for the sake to save face an fear? Never been one to judge or give ridicule yet to hold his tongue on this would be and could be disastrous. may I offer some advice John? Tell Elsa a head of time going into marriage with looming secrets will only cause significant problems later. Trust me you want to go into this new life with a completely clean slate not one of where you have doubt not just weigh your mind but your heart.
