Dedicated to Redwalllover28. This is my sequel to The Great Mouse Detective: Fidget and Eve. Enjoy it while you can. Thanks!
In Scotland, Mr. Flaversham, Olivia, Stella, Andrew, and their bat friends, Fidget, Eve, and Flappy settled in and unpacked their belongings. Eve proudly brought her lavender pillow and dark purple blanket from Ratigan's lair and made her bed.
"Eve! Eve! Nice bed!" Flappy cried out ecstatically.
"Thank you, Flappy," Eve chuckled and whispered sneakily, "I brought them from Ratigan's lair."
"Eve, that was clever," Fidget said, proud of his girlfriend and wrapped his wing around her just to show his enthusiasm.
"We worked for Ratigan," Eve told her brother.
"Who's Ratigan?" Flappy asked.
"He's a bad rat," Fidget answered, "I couldn't escape from him until I met Eve and you, your family, Livy, and her family and friends. We were forced to kidnap people, including family members, but that's in the past and this time, nothing will get in the way of spending time with all you guys." Having said that, he tousled the little bat's hair.
As soon as everyone finished unpacking, Fidget checked out his room and Flappy followed. "Nice room, huh, Flappy?"
"Yeah," Flappy answered.
"Flappy is curious," Eve told Fidget and bent down to Flappy's level. "Do you want to play with Andrew and Olivia?"
"Yeah! I'd like to, Eve!" Flappy replied, "Goodnight!"
"Goodnight," Fidget and Eve said.
"Flappy likes you, Fidget," Eve pointed out.
"I'm sure he does." Fidget went into his bed and everyone stopped by his room to bid him and Eve good night.
…
Months later, Fidget, Stella, Andrew, Flappy, and Olivia were on a mission to get an engagement ring for Eve, since he and Eve planned on being married next week. Fidget had his engagement ring since Eve bought it for him and he thought he'd do the same for her in return.
Just then, something beautiful and shiny caught his eye. It was a sparkly lavender diamond and it had shone as if in the dead of night. He grabbed it and put it to cashier.
"Oh, goodness!" the cashier exclaimed, "That's a beautiful ring. Any girl would love it."
"And I'm sure Eve is one of them," Fidget gushed and paid for the ring. "We're getting married next week Friday."
"That's good to hear," the cashier mused, "Well, I hope you and your soon to be wife have a beautiful wedding."
Fidget put the case in his pocket and the friends exited the store.
…
"Eve, I found this," Fidget said to Eve and reached into his pocket for the ring. He opened the case, revealing the ring.
Seeing it shine, Eve beamed in delight, "Oh, Fidget! You shouldn't have! It's beautiful!"
"Will you marry me?"
"Yes."
…
Stella helped Eve put on the wedding dress with lavender purple trimmings, put makeup on her, and put on her necklace. Eve was prepared to see Fidget.
Mr. Flaversham, Basil, and Dawson helped Fidget straightened his suit and Fidget was ready to see his love of his life.
Fidget's mother walked with her son down the aisle and Eve's father walked his daughter down the aisle to the bat minister, who was soon to address the bat couple. "Ladies and gentlemen, we are gathered here to unite this man, Fidget and this woman, Eve in the bonds of marriage."
"Fidget, do you take Eve to be your lawfully wedded wife?" the minister asked the groom.
"I do," replied Fidget.
Turning face to face with the bride, the minister asked, "Eve, do you take Fidget to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I do," Eve answered.
With the minister's permission, both mice exchanged their engagement rings and addressed to the wedding goers, "And by the power invested by me, I now pronounce you man and wife."
The married bat kissed and the crowd cheered.
…
Sunday, two days after the wedding, Fidget took a nap in his room.
"Eve, can I join Fidget?" Flappy asked.
"Yes, you can, but don't wake him up," Eve informed him. She heard her husband snore, which she found cute and it wasn't loud to begin with.
"Okay," Flappy whispered and quietly joined Fidget. "He's like my big brother."
"He is, but he's your 'brother in law'." Eve tucked in her little brother and kissed both of them on the cheek. Flappy fell asleep next to Fidget, who seemed to be enjoying the little bat's company.
