Sansational!
Part 4: Eat, Drink, and Be Married
Sans
The next two days were pretty much a blur for me. There was so much rushing around tying up loose ends for our wedding prep I didn't even get a good nap in. Even with Pap and Alph helping those two pre-wedding days were a veritable whirlwind of activity. Papyrus and I went to pick up our suits from the tailor. When we tried them on I was pleased that the alterations were perfect. I had navy blue slacks with a white blazer and navy blue vest. The tailor even threw in a navy blue bow tie (a clip on at my request) for free. Paps said I looked quite handsome. After checking myself out in the mirror I had no choice but to agree. I knew Tori would love the look on me. It's not my usual, casual style, but this was a very special occasion, so I was going all out to look good for my bride. Paps looked amazing in his navy blue groomsman suit. He was tall, lean and radiating an amount of confidence I only dreamed of having.
When my bro and I got home with our suits we saw Frisk, Alphys, and Undyne in the living room organizing the wedding favors, programs, and Tori and the bridesmaids' bouquets. Tori designed the programs to look like the door to the ruins and they were folded in such a way that they opened like a door. I thought that was pretty neat. Frisk had made the favors themselves. There were two styles of keychain charms. One type was an ornate purple door and the other type was a skeleton key, complete with skull as the bow of the key and a femur and two small phalanges making up the bit. Frisk had drawn the charms on their tablet, printed them out, and Toriel laminated them in her office at the school. The kid's a pretty talented artist, and Tori and I really appreciated the sentimental value of the little charms.
Tori was running her own errands at the time as well, picking up her wedding dress, checking on our cakes at Muffet's bakery, and just making sure everything was set for the ceremony. We had one more rehearsal set that evening for our first dance. We had a little help from Frisk and Alphys with that as well. Frisk's creativity combined with Alphys' innovation was going to make our first dance a whole lot easier and a lot of fun.
On the day of the wedding things got off to an interesting start. That morning Papyrus burst into our room to wake us up. Before I was fully awake, he literally scooped me up in his arms to take me downstairs to have breakfast.
"help, tori! i'm being kidnapped!"
"Huhmnn...wha…?" came her groggy response. She sat up to rub the sleep from her eyes and grumble, "Papyrus, dear, would you kindly unhand my groom?"
"MY APOLOGIES, MILADY, BUT THERE'S NO TIME! WE NEED TO GET YOU TWO FED AND READY FOR YOUR BIG DAY! IT WOULD BE MOST UNFORTUNATE IF EITHER OF YOU HAD TO SUFFER THROUGH THIS DAY FAMISHED. THAT WOULD BE QUITE A DISTRACTION."
"I suppose you are right," Tori conceded with a huge yawn as she put on a robe. "I suppose I need to prepare breakfast."
"THAT WILL NOT BE NECESSARY, MILADY. YOUNG FRISK AND I HAVE PREPARED A HEARTY BREAKFAST OF WAFFLES, SCRAMBLED EGGS AND A SIDE OF FRESH FRUIT WITH MINIMUM MESS!"
By now I was fully awake and noticed the delicious aroma wafting from the kitchen. Looks like the day was off to a great start.
"Well, Tori, there's no use waffling over the details. We might as well eat up!"
"SANS…MAKE ANOTHER PUN AND I SWEAR I WILL DROP YOU," Papyrus grumbled as he carried me to the kitchen table. Breakfast was pretty damn delicious. Paps and Frisk did a great job. The magic I absorbed from it had me pretty pumped for the day's event. I was getting married to the monster of my dreams. I could hardly believe it. After breakfast and everyone completed their morning rituals, we parted ways. Paps and I stayed at the house while Tori and Frisk went to Alphys and Undyne's place to meet up with the bridesmaids.
About an hour later Doggo and Dogamy showed up at our house dressed and ready.
"So, Sans, you ready to take the plunge?" Dogamy asked as he sat next to me on the sofa. I stood up, pulled out the waistband of my slacks and peeked down inside.
"Hmmm…I might not be, buddy. I'm not wearin' any swim trunks."
My two groomsmen laughed while my best man complained and threw one of the decorative pillows at my skull. I guess that's the reason they're called throw pillows. I made sure to remember that pun to tell Toriel later. About an hour after that we went to the ceremony site at the Ebott Village Botanical Gardens. It consisted of several well maintained gardens and fountains set up by Asgore, Toriel, Woshua, Vegetoid, and a number of other talented monsters that helped Monsterkind get settled above ground. Our wedding ceremony was located in a huge, circular courtyard with a tall and wide arbor frame in the center with wisteria vines draped over the top. It was peaceful, beautiful, and romantic…kind of like my bride.
Several monsters were already there, but no guests yet. Burgerpants (aka Remy) was there with several others putting the finishing touches on the rows of chairs. He had agreed to be our usher a couple months prior. I was surprised he accepted, but he said as long as he got away from the tedium of his job at the new MTT resort he was fine with it. Turns out he enjoys being outdoors. He also said greeting wedding guests and handing out programs was a lot less stressful than working at Mettaton's Burger Emporium. It wasn't as fun to him as being involved in the local community theater, but he found it pleasant and relaxing. I was glad Tori and I could provide him with a little taste of nirvana.
Sir Gerson, former Captain of the Royal Guard in days long past, was there as well. He was the ceremony officiant. He and Toriel go way back. He's one of the few elder monsters who lived on the surface before Monsterkind was sealed underground. He was kind of a father figure to Tori and Asgore in their younger days. When my fiancé told him about our engagement he said he'd gladly officiate our ceremony when the time came. Well, the time had come and boy was I excited and honored to have Gerson officiating.
About half an hour before the ceremony I went to the bridal lounge to check on Tori. I hadn't spoken to her since breakfast and I missed her. I leaned against the door and knocked twice nice and loud to make sure my bride heard it.
"knock, knock."
"Who is there?"
"knot."
"Knot, who?"
"i can 'knot' wait to marry you."
When I heard my future wife's laugh it warmed my soul. Damn, I'm one hell of a lucky monster.
"Oh, Sans, I cannot wait to marry you as well. What brings you to the door? Is everything all right?"
"everything's good. i just missed hearing your voice. we haven't spoken to each other since breakfast, so…"
"Oh, sans, you silly skeleton, it has only been several hours!", she snickered until her tone became more serious. "I must admit that I did miss hearing your voice, too. We've been doing so much rushing to and fro we did not even get the chance to call each other. I am sorry, love."
"it's ok, tor. we'll see each other again in about twenty minutes."
"Indeed. Have any of the guests arrived?"
"oh yeah. it's a pretty big crowd."
"This is so exciting, my love! I am feeling a bit nervous though."
That surprised me. Toriel was one of the most confident monsters I knew besides my brother.
"i doubt you're as nervous as i am, babe. just imagining how beautiful you must look right now's got my mind reeling. can't imagine how i'll react to actually seeing you."
"You are such a flatterer, my dearest. I am sure you look quite handsome."
I looked down at my fancy clothes and gave myself a nod of approval.
"you're right. i don't look half bad. i'd bone me."
We shared a laugh until I heard Frisks soft voice near the door.
"Mom, c'mon. We need to finish making you pretty for Sans."
"that shouldn't take long. your mom's already gorgeous."
"Oh, hey, Dad."
"'sup, kiddo?"
"Just taking care of Mom on your big day. Gotta make sure her garter stays in place. See you at the ceremony."
Tori scolded Frisk about putting her business out there like that, but I won't lie. It had me a bit intrigued. Gotta admit that kid is a piece of work though.
Toriel
After Frisk and Alphys put the finishing touches on my wedding garments I was ready to go meet my groom. My two wedding day helpers tied two satiny, lavender ribbons on my horns before placing the veil on my head. My dress was a flowing ball gown with a sweetheart neckline and elbow length translucent sleeves that reminded me of fairy wings. The pastel blue and lavender flowers on the bodice gave the mostly white dress a hint of color. When I had first tried it on Muffet described the look as 'elegant whimsy.' I just knew Sans would love it. Frisk wore a navy blue and white outfit that was a cross between a jumper and a dress and a pair of navy and white striped stockings. They looked really cute and was all smiles.
About five minutes later the groomsmen(Papyrus, Doggo, and Dogamy) showed up to escort my bridesmaids (my maid of honor Alphys, Muffet, and Beatrice) ahead of me to the courtyard. Soon Frisk and I followed hand in hand. As we walked down the hallway that led to the courtyard we passed several signs written in a lovely script and lit with fairy lights.
Knock knock
Who's there?
A door
A door who?
The final sign was actually a banner hung over a pipe and drape display painted to look like the door to the Ruins. On the banner was written 'I a-door you.' With a smile on both our faces, Frisk and I passed through the curtain door and entered the courtyard. Remy greeted us with a smile. My child smiled back and gave him a thumb's up. As the processional music played I took a moment to look over the sea of faces. There were so many there to celebrate our union with us. There were mostly monsters and a few humans that Sans and I had befriended over the past several years. I could just feel the combined happiness and support coming from all of them and couldn't help but smile.
Although I was quite happy to see our gathered family and friends, my focus set upon my fiancé. This was my first time seeing him in formal wear, and he looked so handsome. He also looked very happy. Since we met face to face I had noticed a hint of sadness in his eyes. But on this day I saw no such thing. The joyful feeling was mutual. It took all my self control not to break out running to the arbor to scoop him up in my embrace. Once we arrived at the wisteria arbor Frisk gave me and Sans a quick hug before taking a seat in the front row.
As Sir Gerson made opening remarks for the ceremony Sans leaned close to me and spoke.
"you look beautiful."
"Thank you. So do you."
For some reason that made him blush. His cheekbones looked like two plump, juicy blueberries. My skele-sweetie is so adorable.
Sans
Well, this was it. I was officially becoming a married monster. I couldn't take my eyes off of my bride. She looked like she had stepped straight out of the realm of the gods. How is it possible that one monster could be so damned beautiful inside and out? And to think this lovely creature came from on high to make a happy life with me, a simple skeleton monster. After Sir Gerson finished his brief speech I heard him clear his throat as a signal for me to have special words for my bride. I took one of her hands in mine, gazed into her eyes as best I could since she was wearing a veil, and spoke from my soul.
"h-hey there, beautiful lady. i see that you're all dressed up and looking pretty happy. what's the occasion?"
She giggled a little before answering. She knew what was up.
"I'm getting married today."
"is that so? welp, congratulations to you and whoever the lucky monster is that's…" I looked down at myself pretending to examine my clothes. "would you look at that. seems i'm dressed for the occasion, too. what a coincidence."
By now some of our wedding guest joined in the laughter, while others looked a bit confused.
"could it be that i'm the lucky monster that's marrying you?"
"That is quite correct."
"that's the best news i've had all day. in fact it's the best news i've had all my life. and to think it all started with a knock on a door, which led to a simple, silly joke, which led to more jokes, a developing friendship, intimate conversations, and love…all even before we met face to face." I paused to collect my thoughts. I could feel myself getting a little emotional. Alphy's sniffling wasn't helping matters. I took a deep breath and continued. "toriel, i love you with all my soul and i'll do whatever it takes to keep you smiling that beautiful smile, laughing that awesome laugh, and making you happy. you deserve every bit of joy, comfort, and love I have to give and so much more."
By now Alphys wasn't the only one in tears. My bride had to collect herself before having her own words. Our eye contact didn't waver as I hung on her every word.
"My dearest Sans, you are one amazing monster. I know that you are way too humble to toot your own horn…"
"…you mean trombone, right?"
Tori gave the cutest little snort of laughter before continuing. Sorry, I just couldn't pass up that opportunity to get a laugh out of her.
"Of course, my love. In all seriousness, Sans, you are very special to me. If it was not for you coming to talk with me and lifting my spirit, I may have succumbed to loneliness and despair. You became my closest confidant, my dearest friend, and eventually the love of my life. I was in such denial about he last one until a certain child snapped me out of it." She cut a glance over to Frisk, who ducked their head. "I cannot be upset about their involvement because without them I wouldn't be standing here ready to dedicate all of me to you. I'm looking forward to every waking moment that you are my husband."
Toriel's loving words were etched into my soul as we prepared for the most important part of the ceremony-the soul tie seal. Monsters who were in love already have a pretty strong bond, but with monster marriage things were a bit more openly expressed. Using each others magic two (or more) monsters would form a magic seal on the palm of one of each others hands. When I had asked her about her soul tie seal with Asgore Tori had told me that it had been severed long ago by her. The process was painful and left a scar on her right palm. I could tell that Toriel wasn't comfortable talking about so I decided not to breech that subject again, and make sure not to ever give her any reason to cut ties with me.
Once Sir Gerson gave the word I placed my left hand into Toriel's upturned left palm. We then exposed our souls, which came together a few inches above our hands. A small thread of magic came from each of our souls then intertwined to form what looked like a two strand rope or screw tip. The magic strands then bore through the back of my hand, through both our palms, exited through Tori's hand, then dissipated in a shower of purplish blue sparkles. It didn't hurt. I just felt the energy and warmth of the process. We then held up our hands to show our unique soul tie seals on our palms. We weren't finished yet. I wanted, no, needed to kiss my bride. I signaled Frisk to bring a step stool, which they placed in front of Tori. I stood on the top step, lifted her veil, and gave my wife a kiss to curl her toes. From the cheering I heard I assumed the kiss must have been a crowd pleaser. Didn't really matter to me as long as my wife enjoyed it. We spent a few minutes posing for photos alone and with the rest of the wedding party. I even managed to convince Asgore to be in a couple photos.
Now that the ceremony was over my wife and I headed to the limousine that would take us to the reception. The rest of the wedding party followed in a second vehicle for the thirty minute drive. I figured the ride would be long enough for my wife and I to have a little fun in the limo. I didn't waste any time pulling the top of Tori's dress down causing her bountiful bosom to spill out. I teased and licked her nipples until they were hard as pebbles.
"S-sans, w-what if the driver sees us…?"
I actually didn't give a damn if the driver saw us. To drive the point home I climbed underneath her layered petticoat to have even more fun. Once I was all the way under I gently tugged on her hips prompting her to scoot to the edge of the seat. I was squarely between her legs. For a moment I basked in my wife's wonderful scent then pressed my teeth against the lacy fabric of her panties. I pushed her panties aside and indulged in my wife's sweetness. I savored every drop of her juices as they flowed over my tongue. I could feel her legs shaking causing the ruffled petticoat to brush against my skull. When I pushed my tongue as far inside her as possible I felt her hand pushing down on my head through the layers of her dress. I figured she must be getting close to cumming. Just as I felt the limo slow down and pull into the parking lot I managed to make her cum. I gave the best pussy in the world one more lick before pulling her panties back in place and climbing from underneath her skirt. When I saw the expression on her face I knew I done good…real good.
"you like that, babe?" I asked as I helped her adjust the bodice of her dress.
"No, Sans…I loved it!"
"i aim to please, milady. now let's get to the reception. don't want to keep the guests waiting too long."
That being said, I stepped out of the limo, took my lovely wife by the hand and escorted her into the reception hall.

AN: Sorry this update took so long. I had a time coming up with wedding vows and planning out the details of the ceremony. I gave the wedding band thing some thought, and decided to forgo the wedding bands. A ring might not stay on Sans' boney finger and Toriel's hands are rather large so a band big enough for her hand would be quite costly. I like the idea of the soul tie seal though. What do you think, my lovely readers?
