"Grace! Come here for a minute. We have something to tell you" Danny yelled up the stairs and took a seat back beside Steve on the couch "She's going to be thrilled. Her and Kono are going to have a fit planning our wedding"
Steve chuckled "Yeah maybe agreeing to let Kono help us plan wasn't a good idea"
"Help? She's taking over! She's not letting us pick anything!" Danny said, then stopped when Grace came running into the living room.
"Yeah daddy?" Grace said and flopped down in the chair beside the couch.
"Monkey, you know how me and Uncle Steve love each other very much?" Danny started, waiting to see her reaction.
"Yeah, you guys love each other a whole bunch and I like having 2 dads" Grace said thoughtfully.
"Ok well what would you say if we got married?" Danny braced himself for the fit of squealing that was about to happen.
Grace's brown eyes grew wide and she shrieked "Really? We're having a wedding?" She flung herself at them and threw her arms around their necks squeezing tight.
"That's right Gracie. You can help aunt Kono plan it" Steve said, choking as Grace squeezed tighter.
"Yay! Are we doing it today?" Grace asked pulling back as releasing her death grip on their necks.
Danny laughed and said "No baby girl. You and aunt Kono are going to plan it for the next couple days then set a date very soon. Like next week sometime, I'll call Kono to come over"
"Yay!" Grace kissed both their cheeks and ran upstairs.
"This was such a bad idea" Danny groaned and let his head fall back against the couch.
"Why?" Steve asked, worried Danny didn't want a wedding.
"Kono and Grace are going to want some big ass fancy wedding! Like flowers and shit everywhere!" Danny yelled, then remembered Grace could hear him.
Steve chuckled and said "What? You don't want a big fancy wedding? We can make sure they don't go too overboard. It'll be ok babe" Steve leaned over and kissed his cheek.
"Let's hope so or else this is going to turn into a circus" Danny mumbled
An hour later Kono came over and went up to Graces bedroom and she must have brought in 10 boxes full of books and magazines with wedding ideas. Danny and Steve both groaned but let her in and listened as her and Grace giggled and laughed.
3 hours later, Danny was tired of watching TV. He jumped up yelling "Jesus Christ! You would think they're planning a royal wedding! What the hell is taking them so long?"
Steve laughed and pulled Danny back down "Babe let them have their fun. The wedding will be beautiful and I really don't care as long as your the one up there beside me" He kissed Danny full on the lips then jumped up heading towards the kitchen "Come on let's start dinner!"
They cooked for about an hour and made Danny's moms spaghetti and were setting out the plates when Kono and Grace walked downstairs.
"Ok sit down and eat and we can talk about it after we're done" Danny said waving towards a chair for Kono. Grace wiggled the whole time, basically inhaling her food without chewing and she giggled when Steve made faces at her when Danny's back was turned.
"Ok! I'm done! May I go get the book to show you guys what we decided?" Grace asked, giving her best puppy dog eyes to Danny.
Danny looked away but in the end sighed and said "Fine. Yes go get it" Grace jumped up but Danny stopped her "Wait! Put your dishes in the sink first"
Grace sighed, put her dishes in the sink then ran upstairs. Kono laughed and Danny glared at her "You've turned my daughter into a bride-zilla and shes only 9!"
"Relax Danno, we picked out the nicest stuff. It's gonna be beautiful. I wouldn't trust you two to plan a wedding if your lives depended on it" Kono said smiling sweetly, while Steve chuckled and Danny glared some more.
At that moment Grace came flying down the stairs with a binder in her hand. She set it on the table and scrambled into her chair "Ok what should we start with? Flowers, music, decorations, food or clothes?"
Steve and Danny's jaw dropped, amazed that the 2 girls had planned all this in a couple of hours "Ummm...why don't we start with the decorations first?" Steve said.
"Ok" Grace flipped to a section labeled Decorations and it was filled with swatches of fabric for tablecloths and pictures of dishes for the tables along with other decorations.
"Where exactly are we having this wedding?" Danny asked, wincing when he thought about his wallet.
"Ceremony on the beach and the reception in the ballroom at The Hilton" Kono said as she flipped through the binder.
"What?" Steve and Danny both yelled.
"Kono how expensive is this gonna be?" Steve asked warily.
"Not much, one of our cousins is manager at the Hilton and is giving us the ballroom and tables and stuff. We just have to provide decorations, food, and stuff for the ceremony" Kono said and smiled at them "Relax boss. It's gonna be ok, I have everything under control"
"Ok" Steve said, still wary of everything. He had been telling Danny to relax the whole time but he was the one freaking out. He'd never been married before and he had no clue what to do with himself or what to expect.
"Ok so for the tables me and Grace were thinking that we could have a white base, then a light blue, then a dove grey tablecloth on top. They're good colors and they are also what we chose for your suits since your so tan it will look stunning" Kono said, her voice getting a little high as he got excited.
"Great" Danny mumbled "Ow!" he glared at Steve who kicked him under the table, then at Kono when she and Grace laughed.
"Whats next?" Danny asked trying to sound more cheerful.
"Clothes!" Grace squealed and Kono grinned.
Kono began and flipped to another section "Ok so we already told you about your suits. But Grace will wear a midnight blue dress along with me and Mary and your sisters Danny.."
She stopped when Danny glared at her, yet again.
"My family is coming?" Danny asked, groaning.
"Well duh! It's your wedding dumbass" Grace giggled and Kono continued "We will take care of everything. All you need to do is call them and ask them to come"
Steve chuckled and Danny elbowed him in the ribs "This isn't funny Steven. My family is loud, obnoxious and big" Danny said
"Just like you babe" Steve laughed, but winced when he was elbowed in the ribs again.
"Ok don't make me separate you two" Kono snapped before looking back at the book. "There will be white roses at the center of each table and we are expecting at least a hundred guests. I trust I can leave the food decisions and the rings up to you guys?" Kono gave them a pointed a look.
"Yeah we got it and Gracie will help us right?" Steve said raising his hand for a high five.
"Yeah!" Grace high fived Steve and then looked at Kono "I got it aunt Kono. I look after them and make are they don't mess anything up"
"Cool" Kono leaned down and hugged Grace.
"One more thing Kono" Danny said before she left "When is it?"
Kono grinned "In 3 weeks" then ran out the door.
Danny and Steve's jaw dropped. Danny had no clue how they were going to get this all done in 3 weeks. Kono, he knew could have the decorations done in a day but he needed to call home and make plans and Steve needed to call Mary. They needed rings and to get suits fitted. So much to do he thought. He didn't remember there being this much when he married Rachel, but then again she had planned everything.
"We have a lot to do" Grace turned on them with a very serious look on her face "Daddy, tomorrow we have to go find a ring. Then me and Uncle Steve can go the next day."
They both laughed and Grace shushed them "No more horse playing. We have lots to do! So let's go!"
Danny smiled at his daughter. He almost felt sorry for the guy who was going to marry her, she was a handful but he loved her and he knew the man would be very lucky "Ok Monkey. We will get everything done don't worry. Your doing great!"
"No back talk either when you see the clothes and flowers and things" Grace warned shaking a finger at them.
"Wouldn't dream of it Gracie" Steve promised. He could barely wait for the 3 weeks to be up.
