Chapter Ten

Seto and Joey went to Marie and asked "if she'd help them plan the Wedding?"

Marie had them sit down at the table and getting out a tablet she began writing.

1. List of guests who will be attending the Wedding. Invitations sent out?

2. Make sure to have tuxedo's

3. Reception, yes or no

4. Rings

5. Cake

6. Minister

7. Location

8. flowers

When she was through she showed them the list and that's when they both looked like they were going to be sick. "What haven't you done yet?" Marie asked.

" We know is going to be here but we haven't sent out the invitations, hell we forgot to have any made up." Seto said.

"Well it is to late to order any, so I will make up some and you both can hand deliver them." Marie said.

Are you having a reception? And if so what food are you serving your guest? Marie asked. She smiled at their faces and she said I'll make up something."

Seto spoke up and said "we have the rings, and the tuxedo's. Seto showed Marie the rings and she couldn't believe how beautiful they were. Seto's was a gold band with a Red Eyes Black Dragon etched into the band and Joey's was a gold band with a Blue Eyes White Dragon etched into the band.

"Roland said that his friend is performing the Ceremony Marie said, so lets get busy and while I print up the invitations you two go figure out what food you want at your reception."

"We are having the Wedding out in the back yard under the trellis, which will be covered with Carnations." Seto told Marie.

"Why Carnations?" Marie asked.

Joey spoke up and told her, "Carnations are my fathers favorite flowers and since he can't be here I thought that if the Carnations are over our heads then it would be almost like he is with us." Marie went over and wrapped her arms around Joey and whispered "honey that is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard and I know that his spirit will be with you and Seto."

One thing that Joey didn't know was that his father would be there, Seto had made arrangement with both Carl and Jimmy to be there too.

The next morning was the Wedding and both Joey and Seto were about to leap out of their bodies, they were that nervous. Roland had to hide his smile as the went and told them, just breathe and it will be alright.

The sun was shining and the sky was blue as they stood there in front of the Minister.

Dearly Beloved, we are standing here before your family, friends and the Lord to join together these two young people in Holy Matrimony. Is there anyone here who can say why they can't be wed, speak now or for ever hold your peace. When no one said anything, the Minister said who gives them young people away?

Roland and Marie stood and together they said "we give Seto away, and then from the back a familiar but faint voice said "I give Joseph away.

Joey turned around with tears in his eyes and there was his father walking with the help of both Carl and Jimmy up to the front and when they got to him, Joey went over and gave his father a kiss and hug. Then he went back to Seto and they went to sit down.

As they both said their vows, and exchanged rings the Minister finally said "I pronounce you life mates and you may kiss each other."

As Seto and Joey kissed the people went nuts, cheering and giving their love to them. As the walked to the Ball Room it struck Joey that it was kind of funny, why were they helping his father to walk? He shrugged and dismissed it and they went to greet their guests and Seto and Joey Kaiba.

Everyone came and gave each of them a kiss and hug and wished them years of happiness, but Joey didn't see his father and when he asked Seto about it he didn't know. It wasn't until after the reception and everyone had left and they went to the kitchen that they learned some very horrible news. Joey's father was dying for liver failure due to the extensive drinking and he was failing fast. He had held himself together long enough to see his son married and knew that Joey would be alright when he was gone, the only thing that bothered him, was that he didn't have the guts to stop drinking years earlier and he might have had more time to get to know is son.
