There are a lot of songs in this chapter..perhaps a songfic? Anyway keeping it PG-13 I don't own the songs their singers or anything else but the plot of this fanfiction story.
The ship was all in a rush, everywhere everyone was running around preparing for the wedding of the Delta Quadrant. It was going to be the biggest wedding it's ever seen though it's brides neither wanted it nor expected it and it was giving them unneeded stress. Of course no one wanted them to do anything which was actually driving them a little more crazy.
Captain Kathryn Janeway was pacing in her quarters when the door chirped and Seven let herself in her girlfriend's quarters. She stood just past the door way watching her for a moment, before speaking.
"Kathryn, are you alright? Dear" Seven added the last word so Kathryn would realize that someone still loved her.
"It's just this wedding, everyone is doing everything we have no say in anything"
"yes we do" Kathryn's eye brows raised in surprised.
"okay what is it?"
"We chose who we were going to marry" Janeway couldn't help it then but to laugh loud and proud. She smiled brightly at her girlfriend and fiancee.
"Come here" She ordered with her eyes sparkling. Seven did as she was told and was enveloped in a nice snug hug. " You know" She smirked behind her love's shoulders. "I've never been married before" Seven pulled out of the hug abruptly.
"I should hope not" Seven was offended. Kathryn laughed a little more.
"That's not what I meant I mean, that we are both in this together, I've never been married or been in a marriage, where as the earlier things in our relationship I have done" Janeway smiled sadly.
"and one thing we haven't done yet" Seven sighed.
"and what's that darling?"
"copulation" Kathryn smiled at her and shook her head.
"The are other names for it, much nicer ones in fact"
"Sex?" Seven tried.
"Yes, but I prefer making love" Seven smiled.
"That sounds nice..." Janeway nodded again.
"It is it really is, and I'm not talking about the name of it" Seven smirked.
"You are a naughty girl"Seven's smirk widened.
"Well, you'll get to see that later"
"The wedding night"
"It's not that long honey"
"it is for me" Kathryn rubbed Seven's back soothingly.
"It's worth it, it's worth it I promise" Seven smiled again.
"I know it is."
XXXXXXX
Keeping it PG-13 ….just it's just a little you know.
The day of the wedding came, Kathryn was in her dress uniform, Seven in a fancy bio suit, it was in the holodeck in a beautiful church. Chakotay was authorized to do the ceremony and he was just slightly nervous. Tuvok was the best man, and B'Elanna was the maid of honor, Naomi the floor girl, and even B'Elanna's unborn baby was there inside her stomach (well you know sort of). Seven was the one at the alter waiting, for her bride to come walking down the aisle. She rubbed her hands together nervously. Her hair was down in curls, and her white bio suit was shining. She looked towards the door just waiting. When the music started Naomi came down the aisle in a beautiful yellow dress with yellow tulips in a bouquet that she was caring. Seven became even more nervous though her face showed nothing but calmness. Then B'Elanna slowly came down it was starting to make Seven uneasy. Would these people hurry up? It took a while longer then Seven wanted it to take but then Kathryn came through those doors and although she was just wearing her dress uniform and her hair was the same she looked more beautiful then ever to Seven. Her nervousness was more obvious then Seven's her sweat was clear on her forehead, but it shined brightly making her whole face sparkle in the fake light coming in the windows of the church. All of the sudden she was there and Chakotay directed them to join hands.
"We are gathered here today...blah blah blah" that was what Kathryn and Seven heard from the first officer after that they were just staring into each others eyes like some kind of dream sharing secret smiles, and eye conversations about how boring it was. However when they started the vows they paid attention.
"Seven of Nine Tertiary Adjunct of Unimatrix Zero One. , do you take this woman Captain Kathryn Janeway of the U.S.S. Voyager to be your lawfully wedded wife?" Chakotay asked secretly hoping the answer was no frankly he'd take either girl they were both breath takingly beautiful. They knew that about the other, but not really about themselves.
"Yes definitely of course" Seven beamed as as spoke and Chakotay groaned a little inside.
"Alright Captain Kathryn Janeway of the U.S.S. Voyager do you take this woman Seven of Nine Tertiary Adjunct of Unimatrix Zero One. to be your lawfully wedded wife?" He cringed hoping that this one would say no, but he was disappointed. Kathryn nodded blushing.
"Yes, most definitely yes with all my heart" Now Kathryn was beaming, and she and Seven were having a secret conversation with their eyes again it went something like this:
I think Chakotay is disappointed. Seven's eyes narrowed at Kathryn's revelation.
If he even looks at you tonight.
Now, now dear, he's not getting what you're getting. Seven couldn't contain her smirk.
Oh really?
You have no idea, what you are in for. Seven's smirk grew immensely.
I can't wait.
Neither can I. They both smirked before Chakotay turned to Seven.
"Seven you may kiss your bride"Seven nodded as if it was obvious and he was wasting time saying it. She leaned in and kissed her bride as Voyager's EMH snapped a few pictures or the Star Fleet equivalent of a picture. That would later be blown up and placed in Kathryn Janeway's ready room. They walked off hand in hand, as everyone tossed around rice that Neelix would later have to pick up.
XXXXX
Just a few hours later Janeway and her bride Seven returned to the holodeck Seven in a short blue strapless stress, and Kathryn in a white short strapless dress. Everyone else was in their best outfits. Voyager's EMH choose the music, which might not have been the best idea, the playlist looked a little like this.
Killa – Cherish feat Yung Joc. - He just liked the beat...weirdo. It's just the opening song.
Amazed – Lonestar – For their first dance as a married couple because it's a beautiful song...damn it.
Bounce – Timbaland because it's sexy for the garter getting.
All the things she said – t.a.t.u. - He thought it fit, it's a lesbian song (rolls eyes)
Something to talk about – Bonnie Raitt – Cause everyone knew before they did.
When you say nothing at all – Ronan Keating – because clearly they can communicate without words.
Like Whoa - Aly and AJ – Love is a rollercoster.
Bed – J. Hoilday – it makes since with how hard Kathryn and Seven both work.
For the longest time – Billy Joel ) - They loved each other for so long they don't even know when it started.
Perfect – Hedley – Because Seven always strives for perfection and she found it.
I just call you mine – Martina McBride
Naturally – Selena Gomez
He choose all songs from the early 21st century and a little earlier. When Kathryn and Seven came in "Killa" was already playing in the background. Kathryn rolled her eyes.
I saw him from a distance [Bridge:] [Chorus:]
Then I watched him make his way to the floor (floor, floor, floor)
He walked up to me slowly, whispers
And he says 'I know who you are' (are, are, are)
I wanna get to know you
I can tell he was a player
But he knows just how to make you lose control
Somehow I knew
Shawty is a killer
But I really want him
And I got to have him tonight
Straight heart breaker
But it really don't matter
'cause I really want him tonight
Janeway motioned for the music to be cut. Then smiled as the Doctor frowned.
"Alright everyone, your food is coming when it does, don't eat it shut up and listen to some toasts, then you can eat, clink the glasses for us to kiss etc." Right after she said clink the glasses, everyone clinked the glasses. "Can we sit down first?" Kathryn laughed, but Seven didn't really care and behind her Captain she grabbed her elbow, pulled her back and kissed her, making everyone cheer and Janeway blush. Then they went to sit down. Their courses came and then Tuvok stood.
"Uh hem..I'd like to make a toast"Tuvok announced in his deep oh so Vulcan voice. " I've served with Captain Janeway for many years and I've always known her to make sensible desions and choosing Seven to be her wife was the most logical decision she ever made." He smiled confident that his toast was appropriate, but everyone laughed. He looked troubled before Neelix patted his shoulder congradulating him on his toast.
"I would like to make a toast too" Added B'Elanna. " At first when I came to Voyager I hated Captain Janeway for making me fit in, then just when I was starting to respect her Seven came along and then I hated her too for budded in, so now I think that they are perfectly suited for each other, and now I couldn't possibly hate either one of them, and I count them as family, especially since this baby I'm caring that will soon here is going to need two aunts. Kathryn and Seven smiled at each other at that touching speech. Then B'Elanna clinked her glass and made Kathryn and Seven kiss, the Doctor still taking pictures.
"I'd like to toast" Little Naomi said from her mother's lap. "Seven was my friend before she knew what that meant and I always knew that they loved each other, like my mommy loves my daddy, and I'm just glad that they are married" Seven's eyes sparkled with tears before Naomi clinked her glass.
"Any more toasts?" Kathryn asked, and smiled when everyone shook their heads. "Then let's eat" but before they could dig in to their meal someone clinked a glass and Kathryn smiled into her wife's lips. Then they ate, and then the music started.
"Alright so first" The Doctor started in his annoying voice. " We have the first dance between the two brides, would you please, come on the dance floor" Seven led her wife to the dance floor before spinning her in and holding her in place swaying as the music began.
Every time our eyes meet
This feeling inside me
Is almost more than I can take
Seven sang along to the melody as she and her bride swayed on the dance floor.
Baby, when you touch me
I can feel how much you love me
And it just blows me away
Seven shook her head as she sang getting lost in the words.
I've never been this close to anyone or anything
I can hear your thoughts, I can see your dreams
Seven was starting to tear up.
I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
So Kathryn took over with the singing and Seven realized that she wasn't that bad.
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
At the word ever Seven dipped Kathryn low to the floor.
Every little thing that you do
Baby, I'm amazed by you
Kathryn twirlled into her wife and smiled.
The smell of your skin
The taste of your kiss
The way you whisper in the dark
They swayed in one place.
Your hair all around me
Baby, you surround me
You touch every place in my heart
Again Seven dipped her bride.
Oh, it feels like the first time every time
I wanna spend the whole night in your eyes
Seven belted at the top of her lungs, and Kathryn had no idea how she knew the words.
I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
Kathyrn joined in again.
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Seven dipped her Captain again.
Every little thing that you do
A twirl
Oh, every little thing that you do
Another twirl
Baby, I'm amazed by you
And one last dip.
Kathryn smiled up at her wife before she was let up.
"Where did you learn to dance like that?" She asked.
"The Doctor" Kathryn smiled again.
"Of course." Everyone was clapping when they went back to their seats.
"Uh uh uh" The Doctor said it's time to throw the bouquet and get the garter, there are pleanty of pictures of that dance though.
(Tempo has reached critical level)
(Tempo has reached critical level)
The Doctor gestured for the Captain to sit in chair in the middle of the dance floor.
Huh... bounce... ooh I like you... bounce...
Seven reached her hand up her wife's leg.
C'mere girl, c'mere girl, c'mere girl, bounce
C'mere girl, c'mere girl, c'mere girl, bounce
C'mere girl, c'mere girl, c'mere girl, bounce
C'mere girl, c'mere girl, let me talk to you
Then slowly she pulled in down the leg.
[Verse 2: Dr. Dre]
OOH! There she go, just what the Doc's been lookin' fo'
She just what I need, black and Chinese like Sum Yung Ho
I got a bungalow, we can disappear for a week or so (yeah)
Then she pulled it off.
I got a steady young flow, super bowl wit' it like I'm Dungy yo (oh)
Yes, congratulations, you won a millionaire invitation
She twirled it around her finger leaving Kathryn feeling embarrassed.
Sorry I'm so demandin', but save the dancin', for back at the mansion and
Ain't, this money handsome? Ain't, that a panty anthem?
I kill me, just like you, from the back you'll see
Then all the men gathered in front of her.
[Chorus: Timbaland & Justin Timberlake]
Bounce (like yo' ass had the hiccups)
Bounce (like we was ridin' in my pick-up)
Bounce (why you lookin' so sad? baby girl you need to cheer up)
She threw it and The Doctor caught it, Kathryn laughed as her bride helped her stand up.
"nice Doctor, got anyone in mind?" She asked him and he blushed smiling.
All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Janeway placed her hands on her forehead and swayed to the music.
I'm in serious shit, I feel totally lost
If I'm asking for help it's only because
Being with you has opened my eyes
Could I ever believe such a perfect surprise?
Seven followed her Captain and bride's motioned confused about the song.
I keep asking myself, wondering how
I keep closing my eyes but I can't block you out
Wanna fly to a place where it's just you and me
Nobody else so we can be free
Everyone else was trying to dance but they had no idea what the song was, apparently their Captain did however which was strange.
All the things she said And I'm all mixed up, feeling cornered and rushed
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
Running through my head
Seven complied when her bride wanted to twirl.
They say it's my fault but I want her so much
Wanna fly her away where the sun and rain
Come in over my face, wash away all the shame
When they stop and stare - don't worry me
'Cause I'm feeling for her what she's feeling for me
I can try to pretend, I can try to forget
But it's driving me mad, going out of my head
Then Janeway explained to her wife.
"This song was made when people who fell in love with other people of the same sex were abused, yelled at, sometimes killed it's almost traditional."
"So if we lived in that time"
"Who knows if we'd be alive.
All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
Running through my head
All the things she said
All the things she said
Running through my head
Running through my head
All the things she said
This is not enough (more, more)
For the rest of the song they twirled all around the dance floor, enjoying the beat before the next song began and for some reason everyone joined in singing it.
People are talkin', talkin' about people
I hear them whisper, you won't believe it
(Ah ha)
They think we're lovers kept under covers
(Ooh hoo)
I just ignore it, they keep sayin'
Everyone laughed as they sang enjoying how embarrassed the two brides were getting as a circle started around them and everyone motioned for them to dance, while they clapped with the beat. Laugh just a little too loud
(A little too loud)
Stand just a little too close
(Too close)
Stare just a little too long
Maybe they're seein', somethin' we don't darlin'
Let's give 'em somethin' to talk about
(Somethin' to talk about)
Let's give 'em somethin' to talk about
(Somethin' to talk about)
how about a little somethin' to talk about
how about love
(Love love love love)
Seven smirked thinking about that great day when Kathryn kissed her.
Well I feel so foolish, I've never noticed that
(Ah ha)
you're actin' so nervous could you be fall'n for me
(Ah ha)
It took a rumor to make me wonder
(Ooh hoo)
Now I'm convinced that I'm goin' under
Seven dipped her bride again and Kathryn blushed crimson.
An I think 'bout you everyday
(Everyday)
Dreamin' 'bout you every night
(Every night)
Hopin' that you feel the same way
Now that we know it, let's really show it baby
(Darlin')
They just swayed to the music their foreheads touching, someone clinked a glass and they kissed.
Give 'em something to talk about, babe
I got some mystery, Why don't you just figure out?
Let's give them somethin' to talk about
How about love?
(Love love love love)
The dance ended with everyone clapping and smiling, and the two women blushing so hard they looked like apples.
You say it best when you say nothing at all..)
Kathryn laughed as the dance ended, wondering how she and Seven could communicate without words, maybe it was just because they loved each other.
Now I'm rolling my window down
I love the wind but I hate the sound
You're like a tattoo that I cant remove
And it feels good, it feels good, it feels good
This song was more upbeat some hip shaking good times.
In the morning it begins again
Feels like I'm falling better strap me in
I think I'm running out of oxygen
and it feels good, it feels good, it feels good
Kathryn smiled at the lyrics.
Like a rollercoaster ride
Holding on
(cant believe I'm like)
Whoa Whoa
Can't believe I'm like
Whoa Whoa
Every time I'm like
Up and down and side to side
Every inch of me is like
Whoa Whoa
Got me feeling like
Whoa Whoa
Every time I'm like
"Whoa" Seven breathed, as she and her bride came closer together. My inhibitions are weakening to that
girl, place, situation
I cant help but lose control
No inner friction that I cannot seem to break
It feels good it feels good
I'm holding on
I;m holding on
The next song came without much of a pause.
J. Holiday
Oo-ooh, oo-ooooh
(Ay-ay-ay, Aay, Ay-ay-ay, Aay, Ay-ay-ay, Ay)
Put you to bed, bed, bed
Put you to bed, bed, bed
This was when Samantha decided to take Naomi home. [Verse One:]
Girl, change into that Victoria Secret thing that I like
Alright
Okay
Tonight you're having me your way
Perfume
Spray it there
Put our love in the air
Now put me right next to you
Finna raise temp' in the room
First rub my back like you do
Right there (uh huh) right there (uh)
You touch me like you care
Now stop
And let me repay you for the week that you've been through
Workin' that nine to five and stayin' cute like you do
Oh, oh, oh
[Pre-Chorus:] [Chorus:]
I love it (I love it)
You love it (you love it)
Everytime (everytime)
We touchin' (we touchin')
I want it (I want it)
You want it (you want it)
I'll see you (see you)
In the mornin' (in the mornin')
Wanna put my fingers through your hair
Kathryn combed her finger's through her love's hair.
Wrap me up in your legs
[Verse Two:]
I'm starin' at you while you're sleep
Irreplaceable beauty
Put my face up in your neck and breathe (Ooh, breathe)
Take you into my senses
Wake up it's time to finish
Round two, round two
Matter of fact, it's closer to three
She like, "How long I been sleep?"
Shawty kisses turn into the sweetest dreams
Like give it to me
And I can feel her tell me
"My angel, this is wonderful
Thanks for letting me bless ya"
Come down, fly right
Drift back into heaven
Oh, oh, oh, oh
That song was pretty much self explanatory.
woohoohoohoo for the longest time
woohoohoo for the longest time
Kathryn and Seven started hopping about being silly. if you'd say goodbye to me tonight
It was like they were doing a play Seven waved Goodbye like she was going to leave and Janeway shook her head.
there would still be music left to write
Harry pretended to be playing his clarinet.
what else could I do
Kathryn shrugged as she grabbed Seven's hand and turned her back to her.
I'm so inspired by you
that hasn't happened for the longest time
Seven twirled her bride around.
Once I thought my innocence was gone
It was Seven's turn to shrug.
now I know that happiness goes on
that's where you found me
She placed her hands over her heart.
when you put your arms around me
Kathryn pulled her into the dance again.
I haven't been there for the longest time
I'm that voice your hearing in the hall
Kathryn acted as if she couldn't hear.
and the greatest miracle of all
is how I need you
She pointed to Seven. I forgot how nice romance is woohoohoohoo for the longest time
and how you needed me too
that hasn't happened for the longest time
They swayed together again.
I haven't been there for the longest time
woohoohoo for the longest time
(fade)
"That is a beautiful song" Seven commented.
"Billy Joel knows what he's singing about"
"So do I"
Falling a thousand feet per second, you still take me by surprise
I just know we can't be over, I can see it in your eyes
Making every kind of silence, takes a lot to realize
It's worse to finish than to start all over and never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won't fall, even if you said I was wrong
They just danced normal to this song. I'm not perfect, but I keep trying I'm not perfect, but I keep trying I'm not perfect, but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I'm not alive if I'm lonely, so please don't leave
Was it something I said or just my, just myself
Just myself, myself, just myself
Yup that's all I've got.
I pinch myself sometimes to make sure I'm not in a dream
That's how it seems
I close my eyes and breathe in the sweetest moments I've ever known
It feels like home
Seven's ocular implant started malfunctioning she started to cry a little bit as the truth to those words. How could she be married to this perfect small woman?
And here I am I want to be your everything
There you are
Turning winter into spring
Right then and there Seven vowed to herself that she would never ever let her wife hurt anymore that she would be there for everything, and never let her down.
And everyone that sees you
Always want's to know you
And everyone that knows you
Always has a smile
You're standing ovation after years of waiting
For a chance to finally shine
Everyone calls you amazing
Yeah
I just call you mine
Seven smiled. "I just call you mine" She repeated softly into her wife's ear as they danced.
I fall apart
Just a word from you just somehow
seems to fix
Whatever is wrong
Seven smiled to herself again it did always seem that way.
Oh, you reach into the weakest moments
And remind me that I'm strong
You've got to know
Seven hoped that her wife knew that every word was true.
I'd be a fool not to see you even worse
To forget that you're more than I deserve
Seven realized that she would never ever forget how lucky she was.
Nothing makes sense when you're not here
As if my whole world disappears
Without you what's the point of it
There is no point to anything without her love Kathryn.
I just call you mine
"mine" She repeated again.
The last song before the couple turned into the night was this :
How you choose to express yourself
It's all your own and I can tell
It comes naturally
It comes naturally
They loosened up for this one. You follow what you feel inside
It's intuitive, you don't have to try
It comes naturally
It comes naturally
They let their arms try to touch the sky as they swayed.
And it takes my breath away You are the thunder and I am the lightning Everything comes naturally, it comes naturally
What you do so naturally
And I love the way you
Know who you are and to me it's exciting
When you know it's meant to be
When you're with me, baby
Everything comes naturally, it comes naturally
Bay-bay-baby
XXXXXXX
The Captain's quarters were decorated in candles that dimly lit the dark room. Seven raised her eye brows as she surveyed the room. Then she noted the bottle of champagne on the coffee table along with it's note. Curtisy of B'Elanna and Tom Paris. She smiled, of course, let Tom do the decorating of the Captain's quarters. Kathryn knew she didn't authorize that, but he and his wife did do a good job decorating. She smiled as her wife looked around.
"You ready Seven?"
"Ready?"
"This is a huge step making love makes two people one" Seven's eyes raised for a moment and just a moment she thought that meant literally.
"What?"
"You never loose that bond, you can't no matter how hard you try get rid of it? Do you want that with me?" Seven smiled then nodded shyly.
"I feel..." She trailed off.
"You feel?" Kathryn asked her confused.
"I'm a little nervous"
"Everyone is a little nervous their first time, but I'm going to take care of you, I'm not going to hurt you"
"I never thought you would" Kathryn smiled.
"Why don't you just go in my bedroom get undressed and wait on my bed, I'll wait a few minutes to get you used to the idea before I come in" Seven raised an eyebrow in confusion.
"Are you going to come in undressed?" Seven smirked thinking about it, and Kathryn nodded.
"Yes" So Seven went into her wife's bedroom and undressed briefly thinking about when to regenerate and so on during the honey moon her wife promised would follow this night. She lied down on the bed and closed her eyes trying to prepare herself for what was to come but she couldn't. Then just as she was starting to relax there was a knock on the door. "Can I come in?" Kathryn asked behind the door. Seven gulped.
"Yyyes" She stammered for the first time. Her wife slowly walked in naked and beautiful and Seven gasped. "You're you're..."
"Old?" Kathryn offered.
"No...the most beautiful perfect being in existence" Seven smiled and her wife blushed and looked down at her feet.
"Oh dear you are much more beautiful then I" Seven shook her head.
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" Seven argued. Kathryn's eyebrows raised in amusement.
"I'm so glad you love me Seven"
"I'm glad you love me too Kathryn" Then Kathryn smiled again.
"Alright love, here I come" Kathryn smiled as she slowly made her way to the bed before settling on top of her love and pleased her very very much.
See PG-13 right? Not too bad...not too detailed...right?
