Chapter 14: Emotions Bloom Like Flowers

January and February go by quick, and the wedding between the two lovebirds, Dlawso and Mina, is now a month away. The two are relaxing in their humble abode, and in bed together, making some last minute preparations.

-March 15th, Dlawso and Mina's Mansion, 11:00AM-

Dlawso is wearing a white tank top shirt and blue shorts. Mina is wearing a pink shirt that reads "I love my bunny boy" on it, and a pair of green shorts. The two are kissing each other in bed.

Mina breaks from the kiss and speaks. "You know, we do need to go get our formal wear for the wedding."

Dlawso speaks. "I know Mina, but I can't stop loving you." He proceeds to kiss her neck.

Mina giggles in response. "Aw, stop it." She gives him a playful punch in the shoulder.

Dlawso giggles in response and the two soon leave the house together.

-Station^Squared Mall, 11:30AM-

Dlawso and Mina arrive at the mall, hand in hand. The two immediately head over to a wedding store where an associate greets them. "Hello, and welcome to our store. I'm Bunnie Rabbot, and I'll be assisting you today."

Dlawso's ears perk up. "Bunnie! My gosh, I didn't know you work here."

Bunnie giggles. "Ah, sugar, it's my speciality."

Mina walks off to the bridal area with Bunnie Rabbot, while Dlawso walks over to the groom area with Espio, another worker at the wedding store. Dlawso looks over the choices of formal wear before setting his eyes on one that made his jaw drop. The tuxedo had a nice black bow tie and a matching pair of cuff links.

Dlawso finally spoke. "Oh my... this is perfect. Thank you so much, Espio."

Espio nodded. "With pleasure."

The two shook hands, and Dlawso bought the tux faster than you can say "Blue streak speeds by!" He then walked to the front of the store and waited for Mina. Knowing that picking out a bridal dress would end up taking longer than intended, Dlawso decided to contact Tails on his smartphone.

The phone rings for a few moments, and Tails answers. "Oh hey there, Dlawso. What's up?"

Dlawso smiles. "Oh nothing, just picking out what to wear for the wedding in less than a month."

Tails smiles with glee. "Man, I can't believe you two are getting married so soon."

Dlawso blushes. "I know. Time just flies by so quick. Oh... Tails, can you do me a favor?"

Tails nods. "Sure can, my friend. What do you need?"

Dlawso mentions to Tails about a room that he desperately wants in the mansion so both him and Mina can have loads of fun in. Tails immediately understands what Dlawso wants and proceeds to lay out a building plan for it. Dlawso then thanks him for taking up the offer and hangs up as Tails proceeds to build the room on-site with help from Sonic and Knuckles.

Eventually, Mina purchases her bridal dress and greets Dlawso at the entrance to the store with a kiss on the cheek. The two decide to check out the rest of the stores in the mall until sundown, and eventually walk back home, hand in hand.

-Dlawso and Mina's Mansion, 7:30PM-

The two walk inside with Dlawso locking the door behind them and the two putting their shopping bags on the living room table. Neither of them would know who the other would look like until the wedding. Dlawso plopped down on the couch, with Mina joining soon after. The two decided to turn on the TV and watch a few sitcoms. Throughout the night, the two kissed each other on the lips without saying a word... well, nothing but just telling each other how much they loved each other.

Eventually, it becomes 10:30PM, and the two head up to their bedroom, undress, and climb into bed.

Dlawso speaks. "You know, Mina, I can't believe we're getting married soon."

Mina smiles. "Yeah, me neither. It just feels like a whole year went by so fast."

Dlawso smiles. "Yeah." He pauses for a moment before asking a question. "You know, I've been wanting to ask this for a while now, but I want to know. Do you want to have a child?"

Mina thinks about it for a moment. "Honestly, Dlawso, I'd love to have children. For me, I would honestly love to see a son or daughter pass on our legacy together."

Dlawso smiles. "You know what, Mina, me too, but I still think we should do so when the moment is right."

Mina nods. "Good thinking."

The two cuddle each other and fall asleep with smiles on their faces, but not without saying "Goodnight" and "I love you" to each other first.
