Bilbo had no idea what he was doing, he was on his own. He had enough information from Fili, Kili and Thorin. He took another day to figure things out. What did Dis like? Gardens? No. A nice picnic? No. And then he realized that Kili was much like his mother, he was good at archery. And where did he get that talent from? His mother, Dis. He smiled and had it figured out. He had Kili help him set up a range, an ordinary target with ordinary hay. He decided to pick her up that evening telling her he had a surprise for her.
"Are you ready?"
She smiled and nodded.
"Aye I am."
They walked arm and arm for a ways, making sure she didn't become suspicious and then they came to the spot, it wasn't a range but a small garden just big enough for archery.
"Well uh…It's not much bu-"
"Bilbo! This is amazing! I love Archery!"
She giggled and hugged him and then gasped.
"Oh! I don't have my bow"
Bilbo smiled and handed her a package and she opened it gasping. Inside the brown wrapping was a beautifully crafted long bow with six arrows.
"Bilbo! It's beautiful! Thank you!"
She said hugging him and kissed his cheek, he smiled, he loved seeing her happy.
"Well go on and try it out!"
Dis giggled. She pulled an arrow from its quiver, knocked it, pulled back the string and let it fly hitting the bulls eye dead center.
"Woah…"
Bilbo was impressed. He watched Dis do this five more times before he stood behind her, bend to one knee and pulled out the ring while she knocked her last arrow and let it fly hitting the target perfectly. She giggled excitedly like a little girl, her grouping was perfect.
"Turn around, I have one more surprise for you."
"Bilbo…You've done too much for me already."
She said as she turned around and gasped dropping the new bow onto the soft grass. Bilbo smiled.
"Lady Dis, sister of King Thorin, Daughter of Thrain. Will you marry me?"
She smiled and nodded.
"Yes, Bilbo. A thousand times yes."
Bilbo smiled and slipped the ring onto her finger stood and kissed her while Fili, Kili and Thorin clapped and cheered for them. Dis looked shocked and laugh.
"When did they get here?"
Bilbo laughed too holding her in his arms.
"Oh, they've been here. They didn't want to miss the excitement."
The three of them walked over to Dis and Bilbo.
"Congratulations sister. I'm happy for you."
Said Thorin, hugging his baby sister.
"I hope you didn't give him a hard time."
He chuckled and shook his head. Fili and Kili Bilbo.
"Welcome to the Family Bilbo!"
Said Fili.
"Oh should we call you, Papa?"
The boys laughed. Bilbo rolled his eyes.
"Call me what you want. It seem's I'll also be grandpa."
Kili laughed at that.
"Well, Kera has already started doing that."
Dis giggled.
"That's too cute."
And that was that. Wedding plans had begun, paid in full by the king himself.
"Any dress you wish to have, any jewelry you want you buy it and have them send me the bill. You will have the wedding you deserve."
Dis nodded great full to her brother. She didn't have much of a wedding when she married Vili. And come to think of it, neither did Thorin and Katie.
"Only if you agree to renew your vows with Katie and have a proper wedding."
Thorin shook his sisters hand.
"Deal."
Dis hugged her brother. For the next few months they met with the finest tailors, jewelers, bakers and florists in Erebor, Dale, Rivendel and Merkwood. The day finally came, Dis looked beautiful in her gown, long pale pink, jewel incrusted with lace flowers, her hair was in a French braid, the loose hair underneath was curled, her veil was white, long lace with flowers at the ends encrusted with diamonds. She had a silver and rhinestone necklace around her neck and matching earrings. She held a bouquet of white and blue roses, decorated with gems , jewels and brooches, two long stings of pearls hung from the underside. She looked beautiful. There was a knock at the door.
"Come in."
She said quietly, the door opened and in walked her sons, dressed in the finest clothing two dwarven princes could is dressed in a red silk tunic with a gold inlay flower like pattern, black belt with a red sash ticked into the belt, sward at his side, black slacks. Kili wore something similar, an off white tunic with gold dragon inlay, belt with sward at his side and a black sash, boots and black slacks. They smiled at her.
"You look beautiful amad.."
Said Kili with a smile as he hugged her.
"Bilbo will surely cry."
Said Fili, trying to hold back tears of his own. He was happy for his mother, he knew she was happy but there was someone else on his min. Dis held her eldest son close.
"I know you miss your father. Bilbo is not and will never take his place. Your father was my first love and Bilbo knows that and knows that he could never take his place. He sees you and Kili as his own flesh and blood."
Fili nodded letting the tears fall. He was 10 when his father, Vili, was killed. Kili was five and has little memory of his father.
"I know amad."
Dis smiled as she wiped his tears away.
"It's time amad. Let us walk you to Bilbo."
Said Kili with a smile as he offered his mother his arm, Fili did the same. Dis smiled at her boys, lifted her veil to cover her face and walked down the isle with them. Flower petals scattered on the ground. Bilbo stood facing the alter, Thorin by his side as best man.
"Who gives this woman in marriage to this Hobbit?"
Asked the holy man. Fili and Kili answered in unison.
"We, the princes of Erebor, give our mother to this honorary dwarf."
They lifted the veil over their mothers face and kissed her cheek. Bilbo then turned to face her, he smiled seeing her, holding back tears. Bilbo looked handsome in his attire, white slacks, blue buttoned coat with silver buttons and gold leaf in lay, matching cape with a red sash around his waist. Thorin stood in a gold inlay tunic, blue coat with a fur on his shoulders, black slacks and boots. He glanced over at Katie and shared a smile with her as Dis and Bilbo read their vows and stood handfast.
"In the eyes of Mahal! I pronounce thee Husband and Wife!"
The holy man said as he raised the couples hands into the air. Bilbo and Dis shared a kiss and made their way to the hall of kings to celebrate. There was much drinking, food and dancing. A beautiful seven tier wedding cake stood in the center of the room. Green icing with white trim and flowers adorning it. Bilbo and Dis cut their cake and served it to their guests. The celebration lasted three days, on the last day they went on their honeymoon to the Shire. Bagend. Thorin wrapped his arm around his wife and smiled down at her and kissed her forehead as thunder rumbled in the distance.
Something sinister was coming.
