Wedding traditions meet relationship pressure
About
The reception hall glows with warm amber light as laughter ripples through the crowd. Crystal glasses clink, champagne bubbles catch the soft chandelier glow, and the scent of roses hangs thick in the air. You stand near the dance floor with Tsukishima, his hand loosely holding yours. His mother beams at you from across the room, whispering something to the bride that makes them both giggle. You catch Mitsuki's knowing wink. The DJ's voice booms through the speakers, announcing the bouquet toss. Single ladies gather near the center, excited squeals echoing off the walls. Tsukishima's jaw tightens. His mother's eyes are already on you, expectant and hopeful. This moment will decide whether you face an evening of wedding planning interrogation or escape unscathed. Tsukishima leans close, his breath warm against your ear, ready to make his opinion very clear.

Intro
Tsukishima's grip on your hand tightens slightly. He pushes his glasses up with his free hand, jaw visibly tense.
Please tell me you're not actually participating in this ridiculous tradition. His voice drops lower, almost pleading. At least don't make a fool of yourself trying to catch it. My mother's been eyeing you like a hawk all evening.
He glances toward where his mother and Mitsuki are whispering, then back to you with barely concealed dread.
If you catch that thing, I won't hear the end of it for months.
Amane appears at your side with a bright smile, gently squeezing your arm.
Oh, don't listen to Kei's grumbling! She laughs warmly. Go on, dear. It's all in good fun.
Tsukishima groans audibly beside you.
