Well hiya folks, it's been a very long time since my last HuniePop story. This one is something I've been planning to write ever since I wrote the sequel to my first Huniepop story (which has become my most viewed and faved story in my collection, so thank you.). I've done a few stories with wedding scenes before, so I know my way around them. Hope you guys are ready for Mike (my OC) and Tiffany to become Mr. and Mrs. Jones. Off we go!
The Preparations
They say when an event needs to be prepared, then hard work is the main thing that lies ahead and that was something at the forefront of my mind.
I am Mike Jones and my life is about to change forever. It had been several months since the shutdown of the Gladstone Corporation, the company that was responsible for bringing the RPG fantasy magic into the world. Following the recent events, the Government declared that a new security business would be brought into the city and this time around, there won't be any wild fantasies occurring. Since the announcement, the city itself had grown into a booming economic place with a lot of successful businesses.
But that wasn't the most important thing on my mind right now. It was nine months since I popped the question to the love of my life, Tiffany Maye. When she said yes, I had a feeling that I was gonna have my work cut out for me. For one thing, I still live in a single bedroom apartment and the place itself won't be big enough to accommodate me and Tiffany when we tie the knot. Thankfully, I have a lot of friends who are more than willing to help out and things had changed since those events back then.
Tiffany and her relationship with her mom, Jessie, was as strong as ever thanks to me. Nikki's YouChube channel hit 25,000 subscribers just last week, one of her videos detailed the personal experience she had when we were involved in the RPG stuff and she got thousands of comments as a result. Audrey was still the same as ever, but she had been cutting down on smoking which was a good thing for her. She no longer does any drugs, but still likes to treat herself to a glass of wine sometimes.
Kyanna still works at the gym as well as the barber shop, along with Beli who has taken over the yoga training sessions. Kyanna in particular had been seeing someone in private for a few weeks, but that was the length of my knowledge and I thought it'd be best to let Kyanna take her time and see how things go with the guy. I'm hoping she gets somewhere, considering that she's a single parent and her son is now two years old.
Lola came back from her long vacation, she still works as an air stewardess and loves her coffee as always. Jessie now works at a florist which is perfect, considering the fact that her daughter will be marrying me. Speaking of which, when I proposed to Tiffany, I went straight to her mom to ask for her approval and she smiled as a response. As for Kyu, the love fairy who changed my life for the better, she had been given authority to visit me now and again from her boss, Venus.
As for the other Lola who we had to give money to for information, no one knows what happened to her or where she went, it's as if she vanished completely.
Which brings me to where I was right now. I was at the dining table and looking over a large book filled with photos and detailed info on two bedroom houses that were for sale in the city, but I wasn't alone. Gavin and Rai-lin who were the two people I met during that RPG world incident were looking at them too. Even Monica of all people was helping out, considering that she did leave a scar in me many years ago, but since the fantasy event, we had become very good friends. Kyu was with me too.
"Oooh, look at this one, champ." Kyu said, pointing to one photo of a house on the book. "This seems like a cool fit for a love machine like you."
"Stop saying that." I frowned. "You make it sound like I'm a robot."
Kyu put on her innocent face. "Well duh, I am a love fairy."
I shook my head. "Anyways, maybe not this one. The exterior of the house seems too bland to my liking."
"Well of course it's bland." Gavin said. "You don't expect it to be a kiddies playhouse, eh?"
"Of course not." I glanced at another house photo. "This one shows some promise."
"It may do so on the outside." Rin-Lin said. "But what does it present itself inside?"
"Well seeing the details here, it had the usual rooms and a second bedroom that we could certainly use in the event that...well you know."
"Oh ho ho ho," Monica teased. "Is our Mike looking to get busy with the babe?"
I looked at her and sighed. "That's one way of putting it."
Kyu laughed. "You know she's just teasing you. Anyways, is there any others you like in the book?"
I kept turning the pages, most of them were instant passes. I was getting close to the end of the book until I stopped at one photo of a house with details on the side. It was a two-bedroom single floor home with a spare room free. I then looked at the small photos of the rooms and began to smile. I believe I had found the ideal home.
"This is it." I said. "This one is the best I've seen so far."
"Let me have a look." Kyu leaned over to see and she nodded. "Yeah, that has the best swag f'sure."
"No offence, but do you always talk gangster?" Monica asked.
"Yeah, it happens when I get excited or if I'm in the mood."
"Kyu, this is hardly the time." I frowned. "Anyways, I've made up my mind. This is the one I'm going for."
"Roger that buddy." Gavin nodded. "So what's next?"
"Well, I'll have to let Tiffany know and I better do it soon."
"A wise decision." Rai-Lin agreed. "For the fated day is over one week from now."
I sighed. "I know...at least she and I have sorted out the guest list, the reception and where we're having the party."
"Woohoo, can't say no to a party." Monica said. "So, can we leave for lunch?"
"Sure, just let me get ready and we'll head to a cafe, Jessie and Tiffany will be meeting us there."
"Okay champ, let's go." Kyu replied.
Grabbing my jacket, we left my apartment and made our way to the cafe. When we got there, my wife to be and her mother were there and they smiled.
"Hi there, Mike." Jessie greeted.
"Mike..." Tiffany added.
As I sat by her, we shared a quick and gentle kiss with her hand on my cheek, the hand also showed the engagement ring I gave to her.
"Steady on, lovebirds." Kyu remarked.
"Awww come on, they're going to be hitched soon." Jessie said. "They deserve to show off a bit of thier love."
"Moving on..." I blushed before bringing out the book I had taken with me. "...Tiffany, I had a look at the houses and I've found one that would be ideal for us."
"Oh, let me have a look." She replied as I brought the book on the table and showed the one I liked. "I love it."
I blinked. "You do, cause that was quick."
"Yeah, it might seem like I'm rushing a little, but I'm just so thrilled to be moving into a home with you as married lovers." She held my hand, smiling happily.
I just had to blush slightly when she mentioned moving in as a married couple. We had been through a lot and we had come so far, I smiled back at her and tightening my grip on her hand. I said it to myself once before, but Tiffany was the one who helped me find to accept and enjoy love, I was lucky and happy that I'll be her husband.
"Mind me if I have a look?" Jessie asked.
"Sure, go on, mom." Tiffany answered as she passed the book to her.
Jessie had a look at the photos of the home. "This looks very well made, both outside and inside. I think you've made a wonderful choice, Mike."
"Thanks." I responded. "Now we just have to get in touch with the housing estate and that we've made our choice."
"Oh yeah, we need to take care of that together." Tiffany said. "We'll go after we've had lunch here."
"Oh right, time for some food!" Gavin spoke happily.
"Calm yourself, fool." Rai-Lin sighed. "I am to keep my head clear since I still have my new occupation."
"Oh that's right, how are you doing at the dojo you founded outside the city?" Tiffany asked.
"It is going well after one week." He showed a slight smile. "But I have made a promise to be available for the day of the wedding."
"That's good." I nodded. "So that'll be the housing done and we should be good to go for the big day."
"Yep, we've sorted the flowers today as well." Tiffany said. "It's so amazing that I'm going to be a wife."
"And I feel very lucky that I'll be there to see my daughter walking down the aisle." Jessie added.
I could hear her sigh a little. It is a little unfortunate that Tiffany won't have someone to walk down the aisle with her, since it was tradition that the father of the bride had to be the one to give her away. But that was resolved when Tiffany insisted that she would walk down the aisle herself and with her head held high.
"I have to feel lucky too." I said, shaking my head. "My parents will be coming over for the day as well and I haven't seen them for a few years."
"Oh yeah, there's one last thing we need to do." Tiffany said. "Today, I'm going to be choosing my maid of honor and I think I've made my choice."
"That's good, I should also need to choose my best man. Although, I'm limited since my two ex friends are..."
I paused instantly. I didn't want to be reminded of the fact that my two ex male friends are gone with one still serving a prison sentence far, far away and the other one who died before the whole fantasy world was sent away from the city. Tiffany put her arms around me when she saw me looking down and kissed me on the cheek.
"Hey buddy, we'll be okay with who you pick." Gavin said. "Just thought you should know, eh?"
"Of course. Now let's get some happiness back and start ordering."
After we had lunch at the cafe, my friends went thier separate ways. Whilst me and Tiffany went to the housing estate store with the book in hand and holding hands, walking close together. The walk was a quiet one, but it was full of love, that was much was obvious. After turning a corner, we stopped outside the housing store and went inside.
"Hello and welcome back, sir and madam." The receptionist said. "Are you here for the housing selection?"
"Yes we are." I answered. "And we have come to a decision with one."
"Alright, we'll have one of our agents to speak with you shortly."
"Thanks." Tiffany said.
We took a seat by the window and waited for a while until a guy in a suit showed up. He was the guy who gave us the book with the available houses yesterday.
"Hello again, soon to be Mr and Mrs Jones." He spoke. "Shall we have a talk over here?"
We nodded and got up before heading over to one of the isolated desks and he sat down with us taking a seat on the other side of the table.
"So which house have you come to agreement on?" He asked.
"It's this one." I opened the book and pointed to the one I liked. "This one here."
"Ahhh, that one was a recommended choice, you know?"
"It was?"
"Yes, we had an elderly couple who used to live there, but they sold it a few months ago and asked us to make it a recommendation for another buyer."
"I see." I said. "Then I may have struck lucky with this one."
"You sure have, Mr. Jones." He then brought out a form. "As you may be aware, you'll need to sign a few details here and our company will handle the rest."
I looked at the form and what it required. "Right, this is my first time and all, but I think I know what to expect."
"Take your time if you need to. Buying a property can be a huge learning curve for first time buyers."
I took a pen that the guy gave to me and started filling out some of my info and signed at the bottom where a signature was needed. Tiffany then did the same with her info and with her current surname, since the official singing of her soon to be married name would take place on the day of the wedding. I handed the form back to the guy.
"Thank you both and also thank you for giving us the payment in advance." He said. "The procedure to prepare your new home will take some time, but we expect the move and what you've requested to have moved into the new house to be finished in the following working days to come."
"That's great for us, thank you too." Tiffany replied. "So are we done?"
"We are for now, there'll be one final signing to do, but that won't be until you receive the keys to your new home." He stood up.
We stood up as well and shook his hand. "Sounds great to us." I said.
"Well let me just say that it's been a pleasure in helping you find a property." He took the book back since it belonged to the store. "And all the best in your upcoming wedding."
"Thank you." We replied in unison without realizing it.
We smiled and left the housing estate store. The next step was to choose two people who would be given the role to be standing beside us. Tiffany would need to pick her maid of honor along with a few other bridesmaids. Whilst I would need to pick a best man. We walked all the way to my apartment and going inside, we shared an embrace.
"Mike, have I ever told you that you are the greatest guy I know?" Tiffany asked.
I looked into her eyes. "And has anyone ever told you that you are the most beautiful girl in the world?"
She kissed me, blushing. "I think we both know the answer to that one."
"We sure do." I winked before kissing her back.
Our kisses got a little more romantic before it got passionate. There was no one here so we would have some privacy, but I pulled away after a moment of kissing.
"Easy, Tiff. I know you want to, but we should save it for the honeymoon."
"Oh, are you thinking that far ahead?" She smiled.
"Maybe I am...but that'll have to be a secret for now. I don't wanna spoil it right now."
"Okay, but I'll hold you to it. I wouldn't want you to forget."
I giggled. "Like I would even try to forget, I'll be doing my best to remember all the good times we'll have ahead."
"Good." Tiffany sighed. "Just a few days to go..."
"Yep...I'm quite nervous and all, but on the day, I'll have my nerves of steel ready."
"Me too...we'll be going through it together. I should get back to my accommodation, I should be moving out of there in a few days."
"Right and you'll be staying with your mom until our home is ready?"
She giggled. "Until we have the honeymoon, geez, did you forget already?"
I smirked. "Can't help it and admit it, you like it when I tease you slightly."
"All because Kyu told you how."
I kissed her gently. "Maybe, but I know how to love you, I proved that a while ago after all."
"Yeah, when I came to your apartment for the first time and spent the night together."
I hugged her close. "Hmhm...I love you, Tiffany."
"I love you too, Mike." She replied. "I'll see you again very soon."
"Of course." I kissed her once more and she left my apartment.
As she left, I had a look around my whole apartment. In a few days time, I would be saying goodbye to what had been home for a few years. I had a lot of great moments here, especially when I hosted that Christmas party several months ago. That reminds me, I need to get in touch with my male friends and that was when it hit me.
"Of course!" I exclaimed. "Why didn't I think of it before? I do have more male friends! But each of them live in different dimensions...still, it wouldn't hurt to try, right?"
I grabbed my contacts book and flipped to the page where I had the numbers of the guys. I began to make some calls and hoped that at least one of them would be free. As I went down the list, each one went straight to thier voice message when they're not available to pick up their phone. At least I am able to let them know. With me picking my best man, Tiffany would be doing more or less the same and I was curious as to who she would pick as maid of honor since she's known Nikki and Audrey for a long time too.
Sitting down and thinking what to make for dinner later, I began to think of a few words I would have to say at the wedding during our vows.
I was very nervous and praying that it all goes well without any problems, issues were the last thing I needed to know right before the big day.
I also want to mention that this will be a three-parter, so consider this as part one. I apologize if this seemed lack lusture, but it'll get better I promise. :)
NEXT TIME! Part Two welcomes the day of the wedding that finally arrives for everyone involved.
