Let's get married, right now! I want you to be my wife, now and forever.
"Yes! By all means, yes!" She hugged him.
"Everyone! We're getting married!"
"What?!" Bessie exclaimed. "No! No! No!" Everyone was stunned. "We need to prepare- oh my!"
"I don't want to wait any longer." He looked in Elena's eyes, so happy to be seeing them again.
"But what about your family?" Bessie asked. "If you want to get married your family should be here."
Out of nowhere, his family appeared, along with elder Matrik. Sportacus beamed. He ran over and hugged everyone of them. "Welcome back, my son." His mother kissed his cheek.
"Poppy! Grammy!" Loquia ran up and was picked up by Sportacus's father. "How have you been, pumpkin?"
"Today is another of the best days of my life! DADDYS home!" Everyone laughed.
"Why is it when she calls me Grammy, it makes me sound like I'm an old woman?" She whispered. His father chuckled.
"How did you know I was back?"
"Elena's emotions ring out like a beacon." His sister replied. "We really need to work with her to control it."
"I'm glad you're here. I want to marry Elena, right now!" He looked at Bessie.
"Alright, but on one condition. You have to change your clothes. Children, you get the chairs to the park! Go!" They rushed off. "Now, who is your best man?"
"Robbie."
"What? Me?"
"Milford, you take the men."
"I know just what to do Bessie!"
Milford took Robbie's arm and led him to his house before he knew what was happening.
Sportacus looked at Elena and whispered in her ear. "I forgot to mention how sexy you look in that costume." He kissed her and flipped all the way to Milford's house. She smiled.
"Women, with me." She led them to her house.
Elena just watched Sportacus as he went in the house. Then a thought occurred to her. "Have you been planning this, Bessie?"
"Once Sportacus disappeared, I thought it might happen like this, so I planned for such an occasion. What's you name, dear? I don't believe we've met."
"Lily." Who had her eye on Robbie until he disappeared in the house with the rest of them.
"Welcome to LazyTown, my dear. Now, let's go. We have work to do."
Inside Milford's house-
"I see you're bringing home strays." Robbie commented as Milford left the room.
"Oh, you mean Lily. Well, it was a package deal to get me home. You should talk to her." He suggested. Robbie looked at him.
"Oh, so what are you now, a dating service?"
"Let's get this armor off you, son." His father looked at the pair and what in interesting relationship they had. Then he started helping Sportacus with the armor.
With help, it came off faster. Under it all was his costume. He started doing squats and twists. "It feels good to really move again."
"You might want to consider a shower." Robbie pointed out. Sportacus looked up innocently.
"He's right. You're pretty dirty."
The mayor came back with an elegant white suit, gold trimming and beautiful embroidered designs around the lapel. It looked like something royalty would wear.
"This is amazing, mayor. Thank you!"
"Oh, don't thank me. Thank Dave at Well Suited, the place where you got your tuxedo for my wedding. He remembered you and found this."
"How did you know I was going to ask her to marry me on the spot?"
"Well you know Bessie, she likes to plan things. It was last month she got the idea. She had a feeling."
"Alright enough with the sparkling conversation. Go take a shower!" Robbie ordered.
Sportacus did as he was told.
They were in Bessie's house and Elena was impatiently looking out the window. "I should go see if Sportacus is ok." She just wanted to be near him again.
"He's fine, dear. Now you wait here. I'm going to get your dress."
She headed towards the door. Leanna blocked her. "You'll see him after you get dressed."
"Ok, ok, ok. Just get it so can put it-" her jaw dropped when Bessie returned. She couldn't believe her eyes. "I don't believe it. It's the dress."
"What dress?"
"I saw it on a rack when we were shopping for Bessie's wedding dress. When-?"
"I bought with mine while you and Stephanie were outside. It's a little revealing but it's one of a kind, like you." They admired the gossamer silks. It was decorated with a thread of lilac colored flowers and butterflies with embroidered patterns over the lace. It was elegant.
It was in two pieces so it would show her midsection.
Lily was watching everything. The dress wold be considered inappropriate, but this was a different time. She had to admit, it was beautiful.
"You get washed up and Lily and Leanna will help you get dressed."
The kids were outside, each holding a chair, heading to the park.
"I can't believe it." Pixel began. "Sportacus getting married."
"It took them long enough." Trixie chuckled.
Loquia thought about what was happening. She really had no idea. "What is happening?"
"What do you mean?" Stephanie asked.
"What is all this? What is married?"
"Oh, that's easy." Ziggy replied. "It when, um, two people...get married, see, and um...they say I love you and kiss? " He wasn't sure how to explain it.
"It's when two people are in love and they want to be together forever. So they have a ceremony with family and friends, get dressed up and someone makes them husband and wife." Stephanie wasn't sure if she explained it well.
"Think of it as a big party," Trixie chimed in. "where Sportacus and Laney tell everyone they love each other. Then we eat. Now, lets get the rest of the chairs."
Loquia was still confused, but accepted that answer for now. The only thing she really knew was that her daddy was back and she was happy.
