A/N: I was gonna make this chapter the wedding scene between Sasha and Smoke, but chose to add another filler instead. Kinda on a writer's block with this one, but hopefully this does not disappoint. This segment covers the events the day before the wedding ceremony.
As always, reviews are welcome. :)
(Smoke's POV)
I was hanging out in Tundra's room after dinner, tired as hell after having packed all of the things I'd need for my vacation. Lately, I'd been pretty forgetful, so I ended up double-checking my luggage to make sure I had everything packed up for the honeymoon. I wasn't trying to leave anything important behind, like my government-issued ID and other legal documents.
"So, bro... Tomorrow's the big day," Kuai Liang said. He sent a smirk in my direction, hinting at my never-ending desire for my future wife.
I knew this boy was gonna start making sex jokes sooner or later, so I decided to mess with him. "So, Tundra. When I leave for Puerto Rico, what are you guys gonna do?"
Kuai Liang shrugged. "You know me. All I ever do these days is jack off since Aya's grounded for a week. Kitana took her phone away."
I smirked, since it wasn't often that Kitana would punish her daughter for acting up. That crazy bitch got away with a lot of shit. "Damn, bro! What she do now?"
Tundra rolled his eyes. "Fuck what she did. I hope she gets un-grounded soon. I'm sick of spanking my dick all the time..."
I stared at my best friend before laughing. "Kuai Liang, you're fuckin' dumb. You jack off regardless. When I first met you, that's all you ever did. So shut up with that bullshit, bro."
Kuai Liang's eyes widened once he realized what I was saying. "Maaannnn! Fuck you, Smoke! At least I get sex! You have to wait until tomorrow to finish off what your horny ass done started on that party bus! Fuck outta here!"
I laughed, because he had a point. "Aight, Tundra. You're right. But, hey... I'm gonna go to my room and lay it down. I need to rest for tomorrow."
"Uh-huh... You're just gonna beat your dick until manhood snot comes outta the hole. Also, you have a few things waiting for you in there. You'll enjoy them."
I flipped Tundra off before getting up and walking to the door. "Yeah, yeah. Whatever, man. Thanks."
Tundra's laugh echoed through the wall as I left his room and made my way over to mine. Once I unlocked my door, I saw several boxes and such stacked near my bed. Tundra wasn't even lying. My boys hooked me and my girl up!
"You like this shit, eh?" I suddenly heard Bi-Han say. He'd finally gotten discharged from the psych wing after having been there for three days. Needless to say, he seemed pretty normal.
"Why'd you guys do this, though?"
Kuai Liang soon showed up with several of our other friends in tow. They all came in carrying boxes and gift bags.
"Because you're our bro and bros show each other bro love," said Tundra. He grinned as he set some of his boxes down on my desk. The other guys placed the gifts around the others that were already on the bed and waited for my to open them.
The Sub-Zero brothers winked at me as I finally decided to unwrap the gifts they and the other men from my side of the bridal party had bought me. I smirked at my friends as I observed each gift.
"Now Tomas, don't pop a boner on us right now! We don't want to get covered in your virgin jizz," Kuai Liang said to me with an incredulous grin on his face.
Bi-Han and the other guys laughed, with Kung Lao saying, "Tundra, please. At least he ain't on poon restrictions like you are."
"OHHHHHHHHHH!"
Tundra rolled his eyes and laughed, remembering that Aya was going to be grounded for a week. Too bad for him. I already knew that I was gonna be fuckin' my wife every day while this fool's nuts shrank from sexual deprivation.
"Open the gift Sub-Zero got you. It's totally some good booty for the bootyhole," Tundra said with a cackle. The others cracked up at the funny this fool made.
I squinted my eyes in amusement and flipped them all the bird as I looked down at the sex toy I had in my hand.
Anal beads and an anal massager... and this is from Bi-Han. I swear to God, he's a faggot.
"This better be brand new. I do NOT want the stuff that comes from his booty to be entering my woman," I said out loud while looking at Bi-Han.
Kuai Liang started laughing at his brother's facial reaction. Bi-Han's jaw dropped, but he soon started to laugh with the rest of us.
"Open the other one, Smoke. That one should be more useful," Sub-Zero said with a smile.
Cautiously, I picked up the other gift from Bi-Han. This was a box containing hot, edible body paints. I grinned wickedly as I looked up at Bi-Han. Kuai Liang was just staring into space with a smirk on his face, obviously not giving a fuck about anything.
"Tastes grrreeeeeaaatttt!" Bi-Han whispered.
I laughed out loud along with Bi-Han and the others.
Kuai Liang suddenly handed me a white box after the laughter subsided. He gave me a look of seriousness and told me to open it. I complied, realizing that it was a cold box housing beautiful, white roses.
He noticed the look on my face, and I was confused. Why was he giving me these roses? Before I could ask, he laughed before he explained.
"I froze them so that they can be preserved. I know you're the romantic type, so that will be quite useful for you and Sasha."
I smiled as I grabbed the other gift he had for me. It was a vanilla-flavored bondage kit, which included a creme-colored blindfold and ties with a medium sized tub of vanilla crème.
Baffled, I glanced at my best friend. "Tundra, bro! How'd you know...?"
"You and Sasha are always eating something with vanilla in it. I figured that this would add a nice touch to your little sexual escapades together," Kuai Liang said with a shrug.
I smiled. "Thanks, man."
"No problem. Anything to help a brother out."
Kung Lao then passed me his gift and I opened it to find a box full of earth-themed massage oils. I looked up at him in stunned silence.
"Jojo and I created these massage oils for you and your new wife, so butter up and enjoy the slickness!" the Shaolin chirped. My friends and I laughed as I continued to open and view these amazing gifts.
Apparently, Sub-Zero had brought in a pack of beer to toast my official last night as an unmarried man.
"Drink up, y'all!" Sub-Zero yelled.
Each of my friends grabbed a bottle and opened it, all of us ready to toast. But before anything could happen, we heard someone knock on my door. Stryker got up and opened the door and to our surprise, it was Cyrax with a card in his hand.
The entire room got dead silent. Talk about awkward...
"What do you want, Corny?" Tundra asked.
"I just wanted to give my congrats to Tomas and wish him good luck with his new marriage," the African male said.
I didn't expect to hear that from Cyrax, especially after that incident where Tundra and his brother beat his and Sektor's asses. I wasn't there to see it, but I heard about it. Regardless, I smiled genuinely at the man as I took the card and thanked him.
Cyrax just nodded his head lightly as his head was cast down before moving to leave. He seemed pretty nervous, and I actually felt bad. I decided to ask him if he wanted to chill with us for a bit. I mean, Tyrone isn't really a bad guy...
"Hey, man. Do you...wanna toast with us? You can come to the wedding tomorrow if you want," I said to the black male.
He looked up at me with gleaming eyes and a shocked expression on his features. "You're kidding me, right, bro? I don't wanna be a burden on y'all."
"Naw, you're good, Tyrone. Don't worry about it. Get in here and grab a beer so we can toast!" I replied back to him.
Cyrax suddenly looked like the little nerdy kid who was finally accepted into the cool kids' group. It was pretty funny, and I could tell that the Cryomancer siblings were amused because they were grinning at the odd scene. It was all good though. Corny deserved a place in our group anyway.
Kabal passed the Botswana man a bottle of beer as Stryker closed the door. The male finally accepted the alcohol happily as he opened the cap.
"Oh, and you should open your card. I think you'll be happy with what I got you," Cyrax said to me before taking a swig from his beer can.
I shrugged, opening up the envelope, carefully pulling the card out. My eyes widened upon seeing the contents as Bi-Han ooohed in surprise.
Before Kuai Liang elbowed him in the rib for gaping at my gift like a thirsty dog, of course...
Idiots.
Anyway, Cyrax had given me $500K in a large sum of bills. I assumed he'd gotten it from the Grandmaster's vault.
Damn.
I couldn't help but look at Cyrax in shock as he smiled at me.
I will admit that I am very pleased with this gift. I owe this nigga one.
"Well, everyone. Let's have a final toast before we head to bed," Kenshi suddenly said. We all nodded as we raised our bottles of beer in the air.
The boys were gonna stay in the temple overnight since the big day was tomorrow. All of us needed rest anyway, especially after all these stressful things we'd all been dealing with.
I noticed someone was missing.
"Hey, where's Hanzo at?"
Tundra shrugged for the millionth time this night. "He's in Edenia with his girl. We'll see him tomorrow."
I nodded in understanding while all of us raised our drinks in the air as Bi-Han spoke.
"To Smoke, our horny bro who's last night as a virgin is this one."
Kuai Liang took over the show, saying, "Yep! May you give your wife lots of good lovin'! And, may she suck your dick well!"
The boys and I hollered out loud as we all hit our beers together and chugged down the alcohol.
Man, I'm going to miss this. But maybe, just maybe...I could still be here in the Lin Kuei temple and be married to Sasha.
My eyes wandered to each of my friend's happy faces as they laughed and joked around. I decided to enjoy my last night as a free man, observing my friends as Sub-Zero and Kabal had their usual wit battle. I knew I'd miss these guys indeed...
Ahh well...This is it! Goodbye, singledom! Hello marriage and good sex!
A/N: So much for a filler... Lmfao. Enjoy!
