Don't plagiarize or sue me---it ain't worth the hurtin' you'll be feeling in the morning. All characters that do not belong to either MIB: The Animated Series, or Delia, or Chanda, or Jen, belong to me. I hope you enjoy the story. ^_^ So close to ending this!
Written in the Stars: A Destined Romance
Part 38: Two Worlds Collide
"Gather round everyone," Zoey announced happily, "it's time for the bride and groom to cut the cake!"
Elle giggled as she shoved a piece of cake into her partner's mouth, "Here you go Honey."
"Don't forget your piece Dear," he snickered, shoving a piece at her.
Covered in frosting the two laughed at each other and were completely unaware of Zoey snapping all the pictures.
"Heyyyy RRRR," Delia whispered in a sing song voice, R turned around and was met with a piece of cake to the face.
Delia burst out laughing while R licked the icing off his lips, "Mmm, not bad," he reached down and took the piece of cake off his plate, "Why don't you try some?"
"Huh?" Delia gasped as the cake was shoved in her face.
She was about to get mad when he wiped some off onto his finger and tasted it, "Gee Del, you do have good taste." She couldn't help but laugh at that.
"Don't tell me there was a food fight and I missed it?" Jay said jokingly as he came over to the table. "Either of you seen Val?"
"She's over there by Aileen and Kay." Delia pointed.
With a wave of his hand Jay was off to pursue poor Val. "Oh no," she moaned when he came over.
"Here's your boyfriend Val," Aileen teased.
"He's NOT my boyfriend," Val grumbled.
"That's right," Jay exclaimed, "I'm her reason for getting up in the morning, the apple of her eye, the sugar in her coffee, the spring in her step, the-"
"JAY!" Val winced, why did he always have to be so arrogant and embarrass her like this?
While Aileen was musing over this she felt a soft tap on her shoulder. "Care to dance?"
"Ah Kay, always a pleasure." she smiled and let him lead her out onto the dance floor.
Elle and X had finally gotten their act together and were dancing themselves. "So," Elle inquired, "do you have any clue where we're being shipped off to on our honeymoon?"
"None whatsoever," X replied, "Where do humans usually go on their honeymoon?"
"Oh someplace tropical, romantic, foreign…" Elle went on as they danced, leaning against the JeeDangian's shoulder, "…lots of couples go to Niagara Falls."
"Why travel all that way over some waterfalls?" X asked, it sounded so---ridiculous.
"Because some people think they're enchanting." Elle smiled, X would never catch on, "It's supposed to be a really inspiring, breathtaking view."
"Then we don't really need to go." X concluded.
"What makes you say that?" Elle puzzled.
X smiled and took her chin in his hand, tilting it upwards so she was gazing at him, "Because I've already got a really inspiring, breathtaking view."
Elle blushed, "Whatever you say, Cowboy." Then again---maybe he'd already mastered it.

Zed glanced at his watch, if those two were going to make it on time they had to leave right now. He walked over to where Elle and X had just finished opening their gifts. Spotting Kay he tapped him on the shoulder, "Better get those gifts packed, it's time Elle and X were on the road."
"Sure thing," Kay motioned for R and Jay to help him.
"What's up?" W asked as U was suddenly told to follow Jay.
"Gotta get those two outta here now, or they'll miss their flight." Jay whispered.
"Oh," W nodded, "better let U here lift the non-breakable items."
U glared at her, but he couldn't stay mad. She looked so pretty in that dress.
Finally it was time for Elle and X to go on their honeymoon, Zed presented them with the tickets, "Consider this my wedding gift to you both."
X stared at the destination written on the tickets, his eyes grew large and a smile spread across his face. Elle could tell by the odd language that the tickets were written in that she was about to embark on an outer space flight. "Where are we going?"
"The most romantic place in the universe," X informed her, "we're flying back to my home world in the JeeDang Galaxy!"
Elle's eyes grew large too, but not from excitement, "Uh X---are there a lot of JeeDangians like you there?"
"Well," X began vainly, "I'm considered to be one of the most handsome of my race, but you might see one or two worthy of being compared to me."
"Uh-huh," Elle stated unenthusiastically, 'this oughtta be fun.'

Elle and X arrived at the shuttle port fifteen minutes later, still dressed in their ceremonial wedding robes. "Oh well," Elle sighed, "it could be worse, at least I'm not wearing my black heels."
"Better get cozy Little Ears," X grinned, "it's gonna be a long flight."
"Thanks for the morale boost."
He stretched out and put his arm around her. "Yep, my people are sure going to be pleased to see me, especially now that we've gotten that whole Ziphron and F thing cleared up."
Elle rolled her eyes, 'This IS going to be a long flight.'
"Where will we be staying during this honeymoon?" Elle inquired.
X pulled out the reservations that Kay had handed him just before they'd left the reception hall. "Wow, they spared no expense. We're gonna be staying at one of the finest resorts my planet has. The Cupidix Remflog."
"Sounds lovely," Elle muttered.
"Always wondered what their rooms were like, and I've heard they've got excellent room service. No spas though," he chuckled at Elle, "not that you'd really have time to visit them anyways, we probably won't leave the room that much." he gave her sly smile.
"You've certainly got your hopes set high don't you X?" Elle teased.
"Don't sweat it, no matter where we go or don't go on this trip, I'm determined to show you a good time." he drew his little bride into a kiss. Elle moaned at the warm feeling of his lips pressed against hers. She had no doubt he'd keep his word.
