Kuon's POV
I was very uncomfortable in the tux. Even though it was November, Kyoto was having a major heat wave. It was a small outdoor wedding at the river where we'd fist met. Close friends and family were the only ones invited. Kyoko's mother was not invited. Aoi and Hime were flower girls; Kotonami-chan was the maid of honor. Yashiro was my best man; much to Yuki's protest he was the ring bearer; Hiou-kun was one of my groom's men; my sister, Yume was one of Kyoko's bride's maids; and we weren't able to track down Kyoko's father so Otou-san was going to walk her down the aisle. I have no idea why Kyoko invited Sho to be the pianist, but she did and he came. Surprisingly he was actually well-behaved. When Kyoko stared walking down the aisle I thought the world had stopped spinning. She was beautiful in the strapless white wedding gown. It went all the way down to the floor, and when she walked strappy silver toes peeked out. Her make-up was simple, red lip stick, a little blue eye shadow, and a hint of peach blush on her cheeks. Her hair fell in a black curtain down her back that stopped at her shoulder blades. In that moment Kyoko was the only thing I could see. I don't remember a word of my vows except that last two.
"I do." I said trying not to say them too fast.
Kyoko giggled.
"I do." She said smiling.
"I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride."
I didn't hesitate to do so. I wrapped my arms around her waist and pulled her closed to me as I crashed my lips to her. She rolled her eyes and kissed my back. Loud cheers and whistled erupted or at least that was what Yashiro said. I was too busy kissing Kyoko to notice. I was reminded that we were still at the altar when Yashiro gave me a gentle kick to the back of my leg. I reluctantly pulled away and let go of Kyoko offering her my arm instead. She took it and we walked down the aisle.
Kyoko's POV
It was the best day of my life until Aoi introduced her boyfriend.
"Kaa-san, Tou-san, this is my boyfriend, Kyoya. I don't see his dad but you might recognize him as Reino of Vie Ghoul."
Kuon and I choked on our Champaign.
"Aoi, get away from that boy this minute." Kuon demanded.
Aoi glared at him. "No, and why should I? Kyoya hasn't done anything wrong."
I grabbed Aoi's arm and pulled her behind me.
"We don't care if he hasn't done anything yet. If he's the beagle's son anything's possible." I said, my eyes darting through the crowd, searching for any glimpses of silver hair. Kyoya was just staring at us.
"Aoi, I think your parents may need to find a nice padded room."
I snorted. "We're in perfect mental health, Kyoya. We're just not taking any chances."
"Tou-san, look who I found." Yuki called holding up that damn beagle by the collar of his shirt.
Kuon smiled. "Good job, Yuki. Make sure he doesn't get away." The beagle stared at Kuon petrified. Kyoya moved to help his father but I grabbed his arm.
"That's not a good idea, Kyoya. You may be his son but you haven't done anything that deserves the kind of beating that he's going to get."
He stared at me. "What the hell did he do to you?"
I smiled. "Let's see. The words stalker, and would-be molester apply so you can kind of guess." I said happily.
Kyoya shivered. "Well, I'll tell you one thing. I would never ever do that to Aoi." He reassured me.
I looked into his eyes and to my surprise he was being honest. I smiled and let him go.
"Okay you have my permission to date Aoi. But you are responsible for keeping her away from your father." I warned him. He nodded, grabbed Aoi's hand and headed off to enjoy the party. I smiled softly and went off to find Kuon before he did something illegal to the beagle. I found him and Yuki in the river crouch over a cowering beagle.
"Kuon, Yuki, leave him be."
They turned and raised their brows.
I raised mine in response. "Do you two want to go to prison for assault?" I asked. They grumbled but wading back to the bank, leaving the beagle in the middle of the river. "Good boys." I said patting their heads. They rolled their eyes.
"Kuon, you are changing those pants before we get on the plane."
Yuki frowned and narrowed his brow. "What plane?"
I smiled. "For our honeymoon, we're going to Hawaii. And you two are going to stay with your ojii-chan and your obaa-chan." I said when it looked like Yuki wanted to ask something. He froze.
"You're leaving us in the care of those two eternal newlyweds?"
I laughed. "It just for a few weeks."
Yuki looked at me horrified. "A few weeks? I'm going to go insane if I have to listen to them every day!"
I rolled my eyes. "I had to deal with that for years, Yuki. You can handle two and a half weeks."
He snorted.
I smiled slyly as an idea popped into my head. "You could always hang out with Hime-chan after school and on the weekends."
Yuki glared at me. "I'm not that low."
I shrugged. "Aoi is probably going to go out on dates with Kyoya and hang out Hime-chan so she won't be home that often. Meaning you'll have to suffer all by yourself." I reminded him.
Yuki grumbled. "I'll consider it." He said softly.
I smiled. "And I bet Hime-chan will accept right away."
He rolled his eyes. "Come on, Kaa-san. She's three years younger than me and she has plenty of suitors her own age. I doubt she'll give me more than a second glance if that."
I shook my head. "She went to Le Goût du Vin to see you, Yuki. If she didn't even give you a second glance she wouldn't actively look for you."
Yuki shrugged. "Maybe."
I spotted Hime-chan sitting all by herself looking a bit lonely.
"Yuki, go over and talk to Hime-chan."
He stared at me. "What?"
I rolled my eyes. "She looks lonely, Yuki." I said gesturing towards where she was standing. Yuki glanced at her and I saw his jaw clench. I gave him a little nudge. He nodded and walked over to her. I glanced around. No one was paying any attention to us. I smiled.
"You know this is getting a little boring why don't we head back to the house, grabbed our stuff and start our honeymoon a little earlier than planned?" Kuon asked steering me through the crowd towards the trail.
"I was about to ask you the same thing," I said.
We almost made it to the trail before disaster struck.
"Kyoko, Kuon, where are you going? Sneaking out of your own party?"
We cringed and turned to see Sho smiling at us as the rest of the party turned to see what was going on. We glanced at each other and ran for the trail. I tripped and almost fell. Kuon caught me and picked me up. He ran with me, in his arms, to his waiting car. He set me down in front of the car and climbed into the driver's seat as fast as he could. I jogged around the car and hurriedly climbed in slamming the door shut.
"Drive!" I shouted seeing people coming down the trail. I put on my seat belt as Kuon floored the gas pedal.
