Hakase residence \ Ai's bedroom
Ai's POV
Shiho looked at herself in the mirror of her bedroom. She was in her adult body, staring at herself wearing a white wedding dress. There was a lady with her. She was a hair stylist. She was curling Shiho's fringes that were on the left and right.
"You're lucky to get married someone you love" The hair stylist said.
Shiho perked up.
"Not a lot of people are that lucky..." The hair stylist added.
Shiho frowned to herself.
" I wish I was able to marry for love... but I never fell yet." The hair stylist said.
" then your lucky" Shiho heard herself say.
"why?" The young lady asked.
"because...I don't love this man. " Shiho replied.
The hair stylist stared at her.
"really?" She asked.
"I have been rejected by the one I love...So I am finding refuge with him." Shiho said.
"does that man love you?" The young lady asked.
"My sister said he's only running late." Shiho said, with a smirk on her face.
"where is your sister?" The lady asked.
"She died from Cancer." Shiho lied.
"I'm sorry" The lady said.
"It's alright." Shiho said.
" My last dream while I'm alone would be to let Schinchi run to the wedding and stop me from making the worst mistake in my life. To let him sweep me off my feet" Shiho said dreamily and out loud even though the lady knew she was talking to herself.
"Let's hope he does. " The lady said. " What's your name? " Shiho asked.
"Yasana Numirako" The lady replied. (ha-ha I just made that up.)
" A very nice name Numirako -Chan" Shiho said.
"Thanks " Numirako said.
"We could become friends " Shiho said.
"great." Numirako replied.
"You have to be at the wedding." Shiho suggested.
Numirako smiled. "Sure" she replied.
"So you will watch the wedding?" Phantom asked.
"yes . But we might not even show ourselves if something occurs. She was your friend after all" Vermouth replied on the phone.
"But what about Gin and Vodka?" Phantom asked.
"That's your job Einstein..." Vermouth said in English.
"Ya ... So I work on the drug and check it out for them so they can escape from jail while you go to the wedding?" Phantom asked.
"Ya... Do you want to switch so you could see your old friend?" Vermouth teased.
" Well I miss her" Phantom said.
" Baka. Your job is to get assistance from her later, Then we kill her" Vermouth said.
Phantom frowned. But so he wouldn't be labeled as a traitor he slowly answered "...well ok I got you" He said.
When he hung up, he felt like he was killing Shiho himself. He sighed to himself, wishing he didn't have to help in something that had to do with killing his only friend in the world.
Shiho was in the car waiting till Numirako gets the message to get out of the car and into the Chapel.
"Are you ok?" Numirako asked.
"yes...I was just thinking... Will he really come?" Shiho asked.
Numirako stood silent for 5 seconds.
"Lets hope so" She replied silently.
Shiho nodded.
Silence.
Then they heard the beep on Numirako's cell phone.
"lets go" She said, opening the car door and lifting her long red dress from the ground.
Shiho held her hand. Numirako looked at her.
"He isn't coming... isn't he?" She asked her newest but best gal pal ever.
Numirako bit her lip.
"Lets hope so... because if he doesn't ...I will swear at him badly." She replied.
She smiled at Shiho.
"I'll do your hair again when It's REALLY your day." She said.
Shiho smiled back. And got out of the car.
Shiho entered the chapel. Hakase held her arm. He smiled gently at her. She faked a smile back at him. But inside she was crying and screaming. Numirako was one of the bride's maids, behind her.
"Don't worry Ai-Kun" Hakase whispered.
"Where's Schinchi?" She asked him.
"I think he went to spend a day with Ran-Kun...Sorry. Not even here for your wedding day..." Hakase whispered to her.
Shiho continued to fake her smile.
"...Thanks ... for everything Hakase... no ..."She started.
He looked at her.
"Thanks for everything Otou-San" she said, reaching the end of the carpet.
Hakase's eyes widened.
"You've always made me proud to be your father... my daughter" He said, fighting back tears. He kissed her cheek. She smiled softly at him.
When she began to walk toward Jackson, Hakase's hand was holding it to tight. She looked at him. He didn't want to give her away to this man, Best friend's son or not.
When he let go he felt like he was giving away the only thing he had in the world.
Numirako watched all this and bit her lip, keeping herself from cursing her so called "Love" .
"Leaving her with this man that she doesn't love and going out with another girl that you don't love. neither she loves you back...that's selfish" She thought.
"We gather today to grant the wish of love between these two young adults." The Church minister began.
"Jackson Klein...Do you wish to marry the beautiful Shiho Miyano?" The Church minister asked.
Suddenly Shiho felt that cold aurora.
She knew...
Someone in the Organization was here. She could feel the cold smirk at her.
It was a lady. She knew who it was. She was good at disguising herself between the flock of bride maids. Vermouth.
Meanwhile Jackson knew Shiho didn't want to marry him. He loved her. He wanted the best for her. He saw she was scared. "I do" He forced himself to say.
"And Shiho Miyano ... Do you want to marry this man?" The church minister asked.
Shiho looked at Numirako. The girl frowned and shook her head and mouthed " HE ISN'T COMING"
Shiho frowned to herself.
" I do" She said softly.
She closed her eyes as if the words were bitter to her tongue.
"If there is anyone who objects this marriage... please speak or forever remain silent." The church minister said.
Numirako wanted to object badly but she couldn't bring herself to do it.
Shiho prayed someone would object.
"I object!"
Shiho faced the person immediately... thinking it was Akemi.
It wasn't .
It was Hakase.
"Why do you object this marriage?" The Church minister asked.
"Shiho-Kun is my daughter! I felt last night that giving her to someone she doesn't love is wrong... I am sorry Shiho-Kun for bringing him." Hakase said.
Shiho's eyes widened.
"Otou-San..." She whispered to herself.
Schinchi stood befallen as he read the text message Hakase just sent him.
He was with Ran at the Cafe' that was at her house.
"I will never forgive you for throwing Ai-Kun away like this. And now she is forcing herself to marry a man she doesn't love because YOU told her to." It read.
It was like getting slapped awake. He knew he didn't feel right with Ran today.
He was going to give his last shot at her.
"Schinchi... you were saying?" Ran asked.
Schinchi looked at her. He loved her, but not like THAT. He thought, finally noticing his jeopardized world get back to normal.
"Ran I have to tell you something. " He said.
" Sure tell me anything." She replied.
" I don't love you like you think I do." He said.
"What? " Ran asked.
"We can be best friends but not more" Schinchi said quickly.
"Schinchi... do you really think I still have that childish crush on you?" She asked.
"Um... I thought... well anyway I am in love of another girl that has loved me for some time now that is about to marry a man that she doesn't love because I told her too because I was too stupid to realize that I love her and the whole time I was thinking that I love you but in the end I loved her and she is getting married RIGHT NOW so I need help getting there" Schinchi said in sync.
Ran stood silent for a moment swallowing what he said.
And as the nice person she was she said" Schinchi I can give you a ride to that place they are marrying at." She said.
"Really? thanks Ran!" He said more thrilled now then sad.
Ran showed him her car, parked outside.
They got in the car and drove toward the Chapel.
5 minutes later they found themselves in a traffic jam.
"Ksooow!" He yelled (Shit or damn it sorry for bad words.)
He didn't know what he was going to do ...
But he knew he was going to do the impossible.
"is there anyone else who objects this wedding?" The Church minister asked.
Everyone kept silent while the three were talking.
"Are you really sure you want to marry him Ai-Kun?" He whispered.
Shiho looked at both her fiancé and her father and thought for a split second which made Jackson sadden.
She knew Schinchi wasn't coming.
She had to move on.
"goodbye Schinchi" She thought.
"I am sure." She finally said.
" Then I don't want to force you to do else what." Hakase said.
They gone back to their places.
"We are ready" Jackson said.
"alright... is there anyone else who objects this marriage?" The Church minister asked.
Everyone kept silent.
"Then to complete this wedding you must kiss." The Church minister said.
Shiho looked at Jackson weakly remembering their first kiss.
Jackson also remembered what happened and frowned.
They faced each other... and their lips grew close.
"what are we going to do?" Ran asked Schinchi.
Schinchi got out of the car. "I'll see you there" he said quickly, closing the door and running with full speed toward the Chapel
He saw it at the end of the road. He kept going.
He kept running. He reached the doors.
He opened them.
When their lips almost touched, the doors opened suddenly.
Shiho looked at the doors. Then she felt that tears would go to her eyes.
It was Schinchi.
"Shiho!" He yelled.
Shiho was too much in shock to answer him.
Numirako smiled at Hakase. He smiled back.
"I am sorry Shiho! I was an idiot! I love you! Please! Don't marry Jackson! " He yelled.
Shiho looked at Jackson. He nodded, smiling. She smiled at him. She let go of his hands and held her gown up so she could run. Schinchi started to run also.
Once they reached each others arms, They kissed.
Some people laughed, since seeing this in many movies.
"I love you too" Shiho whispered to him.
He swept her off her off her feet, just as she wished he would.
She looked at Numirako and winked at her.
Numirako beamed at her.
They then kissed again , longer then the first...
"Schinchi!" Ran yelled, breaking their kiss.
She then saw Jackson.
Two couples were adjoined that day.
What a romantic time!
