Summary: Just a series of wedding-based pieces revolving around Kathryn and Chakotay.

Inspiration: I read many drabbles and short stories from the wonderful and talented Mrs. Singing Violin. Not to mention, I adore weddings. And J/C.

The White Dress
~ Cover Your Eyes ~
There was a knock at the door.
"Are you ready?"
He came in before she could answer. She turned to face him.
"What are you doing here? You're not supposed to see me."
He looked as handsome as ever in his dashing black and white tuxedo. His hands covered his eyes. She couldn't help but smile.
"I thought of that," he said, flashing his dimples. "But there are no rules against talking to you."
She chuckled. "I suppose not. But we're about to start. Where's B'Elanna?"
"She's outside the door. I told her I'd only be a minute."
"What do you need?"
"You look beautiful."
"How would you know? You can't see me."
"No, but you always look beautiful."
"Is that so?"
"You're a scientist, Kathryn. You can't deny facts."
She laughed. "And what proof do you have?"
He chuckled. "Let me count the ways…"
There was another knock at the door, an angrier knock. "Hurry up. We need to get moving. These pantyhose are giving me a rash."
"I'll be out in just a second!" he called. "I just wanted to tell you that I love you."
"I would hope so," she said, touching his arm. "Otherwise, I'm not sure what we're doing here."
"It's too late now, Kathryn. You've already said yes. Now you have to marry me – Captain's honor."
She laughed. "I'm a Vice Admiral now."
"You'll always be my captain."
There was more knocking.
"Just a second!" Kathryn called.
"White really is your color."
She shook her head and smiled. She brought her lips to his ear. "Then I think you'll like what I have planned for tonight."
"Don't tease me, Kathryn. I only get one kiss to hold me over, and it's in front of a crowd."
She chuckled. "Until later, then," she said, placing a hand on his cheek. "Now get out there before they think we've gone off and eloped."
"That's not a bad idea."
"Chakotay, go," she said, giving him a playful shove.
"I'll see you soon, my love," he teased, turning towards the door. He opened it as B'Elanna was about to knock again.
"Finally," she said, shaking her head. "I'd expect that you'd want to be on time for your own wedding. We're two minutes behind!"
"Better not keep them waiting much longer," Kathryn said, gathering her bouquet in her hands. "Let's get this show on the road."
