Getting Married or Getting a Cold?

Time: Two in the morning. Reason: Wedding in seven hours. He couldn't sleep. Kai paced back and forth in his bedroom; he was worried and excited. A part of him was still hoping for some type of cancellation, but another part of him didn't want it. When he thought about; he realized that he'd probably proposed to her anyway and he'd kill the next guy to even think of hitting on her. So why not get it over with? They're not getting any younger…right? Kai ran a hand through his hair; he should sleep…but what's the point? They were going to wake him up in four hours anyway! Might as well stay up. He grabbed his cell; probably Tsuki was feeling the same as he and is up pacing in her bedroom.

But unfortunately, no.

"Hello…" Came the groggy voice through the other line. Kai felt his right eye twitch. Here was the bride, on her wedding day…NOT PANICKING! That wasn't right! Shouldn't she be panicking like he was?!

"What are you doing?"

"…Are you seriously asking me that? Well, I was sleeping but not anymore! What's up?"

"What's up? I'll tell you 'what's up'! I can't believe your not worried about our wedding day!"

"…So?"

"So, you should be panicking like normal people."

"Kai…say that again and then tell me what's wrong with that sentence."

Kai paused and said it in his mind; and just like that he realized what was wrong. "I forgot…you're not normal"

"Exactly. So, I'm going to go back to sleep because I know for sure someone is going to come in and wake me up soon! So night Kai!"

Before Kai could put his two cents in, Tsuki had already hung up on him. Kai sighed and placed his phone down, lying back on his bed. He closed his eyes…he really needed to relax. It was so unlike him to worry about things like this…

"Oh no!!!!!!! The dress???!!! Honey! Put on the dress!!!!" Mrs. Tachibana-Kishuko shoved Tsuki's sleeveless wedding dress into Tsuki's arms. The wedding would be in three hours and Tsuki was still half asleep! What kind of bride stays half asleep on their wedding day?!!!!

"…Calm down…I'll put the dress…" Tsuki let out a yawn and entered into the restroom.

"No! Bride must do hair first! Hair first!" The stout black haired hair dresser grabbed hold of Tsuki's arm and forced her to sit. Tsuki gave the hair dresser an amused look, still clutching the wedding dress.

"Tsuki! You're going to wrinkle it!" Hilary took the wedding dress and hung it behind the door of Tsuki's bedroom. Why everyone (her mom, her siblings, Renée, Mrs. Hiwatari, and the hair dresser) was in there she had no idea! Her bedroom wasn't that big!

"Ow! Watch it! The hair is fragile!" Groaned Tsuki. It was six in the freaking morning! She was still sleepy, especially since Kai had to go and wake her up!

"Beauty hurts dear." Came the calm response of the hair dresser; her brows furrowed in an expertise way as she began to do who knows what with Tsuki's hair.

"Humph. I'd rather stay me!" Tsuki pouted as she crossed her arms over her chest. She wondered what Kai could be up too?

-----------

"How the Hell can you stay calm like that?! It's your wedding day." Asked Tala as he observed Kai. Unlike earlier, Kai had mellowed out and was back to his 'usual' self; usual being his 'I don't care' attitude. Kai glanced at Tala and smirked.

"Hn. I had an epiphany last night."

"Really? And what was that?"

"Well, Tala, it means that I've come to accept it. It's tradition."

"So your going to let your kids end up like you too?"

"No. After me, there isn't going to be another forced wedding." Tala let out a chuckle and patted Kai's shoulder. "That's for sure. Hey? Where's Tyson?"

Kai looked around, yeah…where did he go? Mr. Hiwatari strode up to the teens and gave them an approving nod.

"Alright gentlemen, let's head to the ceremony."

Both males grunted; still wondering where Tyson had run off too…

-----------

"Dancing Queen! Youngest queen only seventeen!!!!!" Sang Tsuki while twirling around in her wedding dress. The others (Hilary, Aya, Renée, Mrs. Hiwatari, and Mrs. Tachibana-Kishuko) wondered how she can play it calm. If it were one of them, they'd be sweating profusely!

"Tsuki…I think you should just sit…you have half an hour before you need to walk…calm down." Breathed out Renée, trying to get the said girl to quit twirling in her dress.

"Can I see Kai?"

"No!" Came the simultaneous reply.

"Why? There's nothing in the rule book that says I can't visit him. I know you people say it's bad when the groom visits the bride but there's nothing that says that a bride can't!"

"It's the same thing! Now sit still!" Yelled Aya. It wasn't her wedding but she wanted everything to look perfect. Who knows who could be out there? She didn't want to embarrass herself in front of important people and she didn't need her step-sister to do that for her.

"My gosh! Relax ladies! Everything is under control."

Knock. Knock. The girls turned their heads to the door. They were at Voltaire's estate; he had planned their wedding in his never ending backyard.

"Who is it?" Called out Hilary.

"It's me. Tala."

"What do you want?"

"To speak to Hil."

Hilary raised a brow as she approached the door; giving the others questioning looks. Once she stepped out, Tsuki began to hum the 'Dancing Queen' song. Aya was tempted to hit her over her head. She needed to be pacing, not singing!

Hilary came back in, a horror stricken look on her face. "Don't panic anyone…Tyson's missing!"

"WHAT?!" Came the reply from all the present girls excluding Tsuki and Hilary.

"I know…he was there when they were getting ready but now they don't know where he went!"

"Chill out! He probably got hungry!" All heads turned to Tsuki who gave them a 'what' look. Hilary wanted to pull her hair but restrained herself from doing so. "I can't believe him! This is terrible! We are now one male short!" Screamed Hilary who began to pace back and forth.

"Relax…no one's going to notice!" Everyone gave Tsuki an 'are you kidding me' look; which she replied with a shrug of her shoulder. "Look, if it doesn't work out we'll just cancel—or not! Just kidding! It will go on!" Tsuki turned back around so she wouldn't be looking at their death glares.

----------

"Ten minutes. Where's Tyson?" Asked Kai, tapping his foot impatiently. They had tried calling his cell but he wouldn't answer.

"Kai, you need to take your place." Spoke Tala, placing his hand on Kai's shoulder. Kai nodded and walked passed him. Tala let out a sigh and tried calling Tyson again.

Kai stood under the wedding arch, glancing calmly, but inside nervously, at all the people. His Grandfather was very generous at sending out invitations. He watched as the bride's maid's look their places, letting go of their partners who stood in line next to Kai, Tala being his best man, followed by Marshall, they had settled their differences, and what was suppose to be Tyson…but he wasn't there. While Hilary took the place 'maid of honor' followed by Renée and Aya.

Still no Tyson, noted Kai. Kai shook his head; he was going to kill Tyson when he sees him.

But his thoughts of murder vanished when the song changed, and his bride approached him. Kai stood speechless, Tsuki looked…she looked…not like herself at all. Her satin, figure hugging dress complimented her fair skin, and giving her bonus points on her curves. Her hair was up in a small ponytail; her bangs curled a bit. She looked radiant. Kai's lips curved up into a genuine smile; what in the world possessed him to think of canceling the wedding in the first place. Tsuki gave him a nervous smile, not because of the wedding, but because she was afraid she was going to fall anytime now. Which happened, but she caught her footing; she glanced around and gave the crowed a sheepish smile and approached the arch, smiling at Kai who was shaking his head. Once she was under the arch she smiled at Kai again and gave him a good look over. The pair turned to the hired priest. Why his Grandfather hired one, he had no clue; probably to make it look good.

"You look beautiful." Whispered Kai.

"Thanks…you look really good…" Tsuki smirked at him, before turning back to the priest. "Mr. Brown? Oh my gosh! I haven't seen you in a while! How are you?"

Mr. Brown looked taken aback. Tala couldn't help but let out a chuckle. The audience glanced at one another. Kai nudged Tsuki who looked at him questionably until she realized what the look was for.

"Sorry. We'll catch up later okay Mr. Brown…ow! Right! Continue…"

Mr. Brown cleared his throat and began his speech with 'Dearly beloved…' but Kai and Tsuki weren't paying attention to his words; they were too busy admiring each other. Tsuki mouthed 'you nervous?' to Kai who mouthed back a 'no'. Tsuki gave him a look that said 'I am…' Kai smirked at her. It seemed like they were the only one present. Tsuki smiled and did a cross-eyed look that caused Kai to stifle a low chuckle.

They were so busy staring at each other that they didn't notice Mr. Brown addressing them until Kai felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned to Tala who gave him a look.

"Oh!" Kai turned to Mr. Brown who gave him a kind smile. "The rings?" Asked Mr. Brown patiently. The rings? They were already to that part. It seemed that Tsuki was thinking the same thing too, but for a completely different reason. Kai turned to Tala who gave him the ring and Tsuki to Hilary who gave it to her. They both turned back towards one another.

Mr. Brown smiled at the couple and cleared his throat, turning to Kai.

"Kai, do you take Tsuki Kishuko as your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?"

Kai stared at Tsuki for a while before replying: "I do."

Tsuki gave Kai a small smile as she placed the ring on his finger. Kai bent forward. "I have no idea, why I wanted to stop this wedding, I'm glad I didn't." Tsuki looked up at him, something unreadable in her eyes.

Mr. Brown turned to Tsuki. "Tsuki, do you take Kai Hiwatari as your—"

"NOOOOOOO!!!!!!" Everyone turned to the patio door, where the bride had entered through previously. There was a masked man standing there, his hand outstretched. Tsuki let out a low groan. This wasn't happening. Kai glared at the guy. Who did he think he is? Wait…that tuxedo looked very familiar…

"TYSON?" Screamed Hilary. The masked man turned to Hilary.

"Uh…No. I am not Tyson. I don't know who he is!" Spoke the man in deep unconvincing voice. Tsuki closed her eyes and brought her fist up to her lips. Kai saw the gesture and turned to her.

"Did you plan this?" He asked above a whisper. Tsuki looked at him in shock, hoping it looked convincing. "What?! Of course not! I would never have someone come and just do something like that! I mean! Come on!"

Kai bit his inner cheek and turned back to the masked man. Tsuki did the same, but gave the masked man a look. The masked man looked at her too. Tsuki shook her head, hoping no one saw, which no one did because their attention was on the man.

"Tyson! That is you!"

"What?! No it isn't Hil! I mean! No!!!! Who is this Tyson you speak of?!"

Hilary gave the masked man a stern look and marched over to him, pulling off his mask; revealing Tyson. "You imbecile! What are you doing?!"

Tyson shrugged his shoulders. "Uh…just kidding…"

Hilary smacked him upside the head and pulled his ear. "Ow! Hil! That hurts! I was only messing around! I wanted this wedding to be memorable!" Hilary let go once Tyson was in his correct spot and returned to hers. She tuned to Mr. Brown and gave him a sweet smile. "You may continue."

Mr. Brown nodded his head and turned back to Tsuki who had a weird look on her face.

"Ahem…as I was saying: Do you Tsuki take Kai Hiwatari as your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?"

Tsuki pursed her lips and furrowed her brows. "I…I…" Kai leaned forward, as did everyone else. "I…I…" Tsuki's face turned to one of discomfort. The audience began to look at one another. Mrs. Tachibana-Kishuko was sitting on the edge of her seat, fear written all over her face.

"I…I…ACHOO!" Tsuki covered her face as she sneezed; she shook her head and looked at Kai, who had an irritated look on his face.

"Wow! I was waiting for that sneeze. Sorry everyone…" Tsuki turned to the crowd and turned back to Kai, grinning like a Cheshire cat. Tsuki turned back to Mr. Brown, who signaled her to answer. Tsuki furrowed her brows a bit until realization hit her.

"Oh! Yes! I mean I do! I do!" Tsuki gave her right hand. "Wrong one Tsuki…"

"Oops!" Tsuki switched her hand while giving Kai an apologetic look. Kai shook his head and placed the ring on her ring finger.

"Now…I'm guessing no one is going to object?" Mr. Brown looked at Tyson, who smiled sheepishly, before turning to look at the couple. "Then I have nothing further to say than, you may kiss your bride." The latter was spoken to Kai who smirked and was about to close the gap between himself and Tsuki when…

"Hey! How come it can't be 'you may kiss the groom'?"

"JUST KISS!" Tsuki jumped in shock as she stared at the guest and turned back to Kai and kissed him full on the lips. The couple broke off a while after, smiling like there would be no tomorrow. On the side lines, Tala looked at Renée who raised a brow at him.

"Uh…you wanna…you know…go—"

"Sure."

"Ren! You didn't even—What?"

Renée rolled her eyes, approached Tala, pulled his collar and gave him a kiss. Tala's eyes widened but slowly relaxed as he got into the kiss.

Tyson looked at Hilary who narrowed her eyes at him. "Don't even Tyson. You have some explaining to do!"

Aya let out a crestfallen sigh. When will she find herself a man?

"Smile…"

Aya turned and raised a brow at Marshall. "Smile? Why?"

Marshall shrugged his shoulders. "Cause it's your step-sister's wedding."

Aya rolled her eyes. "Whatever. She has her happy ending! What about me?!"

"You'll find someone."

"Really?"

"Yeah…"

"Could that someone be you?" Asked Aya flirtatiously.

"Uh…not that soon." Replied Marshall turning around to look at the newly weds; missing Aya's fuming look.

Back with the newly weds…

"So Kai? Did you hear? We get to miss a month of school for our 'honeymoon'! Isn't that exciting?! I'm excited!"

Kai rolled his eyes. "That's it? That's what your excited about? What about our wedding?"

"Yeah. I am too, cause we get to eat now!"

Kai glared at her. Tsuki let out a hearty laugh. "Just kidding!"

Kai smirked at Tsuki. Tsuki's smile faded. "Why are you smirking?"

"Hn. So…what's your new last name?"

Tsuki's face fell. "If your hinting that I don't know…I do!"

"Then what is?"

"It's the same as yours! Duh!"

Kai's smirk widened. Déjà vu all over again. "Then what is it?"

"Why do I have to tell you if you know what it is?!"

"Because…I want you to say it."

"Uh…maybe some other time…"

"No…now."

"Fine…Himemiya…"

A/N: Was it alright? Was it okay? I'm doing one more chapter and the fic is done...but I don't know...I might do a third series...but it'll be based on their honeymoon and what kind of trouble Tsuki drags them both in...but I don't know if I should...do you want me too? It's not going to be all mushy and stuff, there are going to be some funny stuff too! They'll be going all sorts of places in Europe! So...
