Sorry for the wait but I have been busy with numerous things. After this chapter there will only be 4 more, after that I may be on hiatus for a short while to pursue a few other projects. Then there will be the sequel to this!~ I already have the name and plot down, though the name is not imaginative at all. Hehe the sequel will boringly be called After All This Time, see told you, no imagination used there. There will be a few surprised on the way as this fanfic draws to a close, then a time-skip to the sequel~
I may not manage to update until after the weekend as I will be at J-Con where I hope to bump into Tamyyiia whos one of my fave fanfiction authors~
"I hate ties…I only like bow ties, bow ties are cool" Shizuo muttered aloud, Shinra who happened to be with him snickered at his mutterings. "You've worn a bowtie for years but have trouble with a normal one?" The blond mumbled for Shinra to shut up before finally managing to correctly do up his tie. "Though it could just be nerves, you are getting married after all." If Shizuo was nervous at first, having Shinra remind him wasn't going to help. "Really Shinra? I had no idea. I thought I was dressing up like this for shits and giggles…" he said sarcastically. Being with Izaya had caused some of their traits to rub off on each other. Shizuo had his sarcastic moments while Izaya was a lot kinder to others than he used to be. So far, it was only the good traits they seemed to acquire from one another.
Izaya had gone to his sisters, with Namie too. Shizuo wondered what Izaya would look like as he walked down the aisle to him. He didn't mind what Izaya wore, he was just glad he was able to marry him. He was still a little surprised that Izaya had proposed to him. He could recall Izaya saying a few times that he didn't really think there was a point to marriage, he did ask Izaya why he proposed if that's what he thought. The answer he received was that he used to think that, before he realised that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with Shizuo. He felt himself blush a little at remembering that, sure Izaya was sweet, but there were moments that would cause even Shizuo to become flustered. "I thought the bride was supposed to be the one blushing~". Shinra teased after spying the blush adorning the blond's cheeks. "Shinra, shut up will you?"
Over at his sister's apartment, Izaya was getting himself ready, with the Namie's help and his sisters watching. The girls were just making sure Izaya wasn't avoiding wearing the dress they are making him wear. Yes they had managed to convince him to wear one. "Why do you two want me to wear a dress so much? To be honest I don't really mind it, but still why?" The girls merely giggled and Namie rolled her eyes "Why's it matter, regardless of the reason you are now wearing a dress and you're getting married". Namie was getting a little bored here, why did she have to be the one to help Izaya? Why couldn't the girls have done it alone?
"At least I look good, then again I look good in anything~" Izaya now stood in front of the mirror, admiring himself. The twins picked a nice dress and though he hated to admit it, his feminine looks helped him pull it off. Despite being male, Izaya had hips like a woman and this dress seemed to display it clearly. It was a simple white dress with some red embroidery around the bodice and the train of the dress. He chose not to wear a veil or anything as he found them bothersome, though he was wearing heeled shoes. "Shizuo-san will be surprised when he sees you!" Izaya nodded in agreement with Mairu, as did Kururi. "Hehe I bet he will, I bet everyone else will be surprised too. Though Shinra will make fun of me for it later~" The twins giggled at that.
Shizuo and Shinra arrived at the church a little earlier than planned, but it didn't matter. They both looked around "It's been decorated nicely, though I don't know why Izaya had white as the main colour, we all know he's not a virgin~" Shinra teased earing a playful shove from Shizuo "Well duh, he does have the twins" He replied. Though even If Psyche and Hibiya didn't exist, the amount of time Izaya and Shizuo spent together it would be a miracle if Izaya was still a virgin.
"I wonder if Namie is having fun helping Izaya get ready" Shizuo laughed slightly "Namie hates Izaya, he only asked her to help to piss her off". Izaya was a bastard like that, but he was Shizuo's bastard. He was going to marry this bastard of his today, and he was very happy about that.
They didn't have to wait long for guests to arrive, Kadota and his group arrived and were chatting to Shizuo, Erika saying how Shizaya was real considering they were getting married and everything. Celty arrived and brought the boys who were chatting to each other about whether Izaya was wearing a dress or not, making Shizuo chuckle. Shizuo was pleasantly surprised to see that Kasuka had managed to get time off acting to be here. He hugged him, happy to see him on his wedding day.
Shizuo felt his nerves return when he saw that Namie had arrived, Izaya and his Sisters would also be here and would enter soon. Namie and Shinra made sure everyone was where they should be, Shinra gave Shizuo a 'thumbs up' to try and ease his nerves, and it didn't work in the slightest.
On the other side of the big wooden doors stood Izaya, fronted by the girls who had handed him a bouquet of Red and White roses. He took a deep breath before speaking "Well girls, it's now or never~" They grinned at him before opening the doors and making sure the music began to play before they walked, followed by their brother. Everyone stood and turned to see Izaya walk down the Aisle, so many surprised faces had Izaya trying not to let his trademark smirk slip onto his face. He kept smiling, though he did blush when he looked at Shizuo who looked awe-stuck. He couldn't keep his eyes off of Izaya, his Blushing Bride.
As Izaya made his way down the aisle, and took his place next to Shizuo, neither of them could keep the smiles off their faces if they tried. Shizuo held Izaya's left hand, Izaya's right was holding the bouquet. "You look beautiful Izaya…" Shizuo was honestly stunned, he knew Izaya was feminine looking, but he looked amazing in the dress. It was almost a shame that later he'd probably rip it off Izaya, almost.
"Do you Izaya Orihara; take Shizuo Heiwajima to be your lawfully wedded husband?" Grinning and still blushing he replied "I Do". The priest turned to face Shizuo "Do you Shizuo Heiwajima: take Izaya Orihara to be your lawfully wedded, wife?" he chuckled and looked Izaya in the eyes "I Do". The priest nodded and everyone smiled as they knew what was coming next "I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may now kiss the bride". Shizuo wrapped his arms around Izaya's waist and passionately kissed him; Izaya loosely wrapped his arms around Shizuo's neck and returned the kiss. Both were trying not to cry from sheer joy but laughed as both the sets of twins showered them with confetti.
As they made their way outside for photos and to throw the bouquet, Shizuo couldn't help but feel like the luckiest man alive. Shizuo and Izaya stood with Hibiya and Psyche in front. "Smile, Mrs Heiwajima~" Shizuo teased, Izaya kissed his cheek before smiling at the camera, a faint dusting of pink adorning his cheeks. When it came to throwing the flowers, Everyone especially Celty were surprised when she caught them. They cheered for her though and if she had a head shed be blushing, Shinra certainly was. The newly married couple were glad that their closest friends may be the next ones to have a wedding, they are fun after all~
