Chapter 23-Heero's Wedding
Mina thought to herself ,"I knew it.".
Duo was proud that Heero Yuy, the seemingly emotionless killing machine,
actually uttered those three words. Heero spoke the words with an unrivaled
passion in his voice.
The bill
came to $147.73, with a 15% tip. Quatre gladly paid with some help, forced by
Duo. Sensing that Heero would need some time alone with Serena, Zechs said to
Heero ,"How about you and Serena take my Jeep. Noin and I will go with
Quatre." Heero agreed, thanking Zechs for offering.
It was
7:00PM when everyone returned to the Winner Estate. Heero was completely
exhausted from his confession and went directly to bed. Mina, along with
Quatre, came up to Serena and said ,"I told you so, girl.". Duo
followed, accompanied with Lita, saying ,"I'm proud of him. He finally
told her how he felt.". Serena stayed up for another hour, then went to
bed. She found Heero asleep in her bed and joined him. Following Serena, the
girls and their new boyfriends went to bed with each other, making sure to keep
all actions clean.
The next
four days came and went, cementing the relationships between the Gundam Pilots
and the Sailor Scouts. Duo was always with Lita. Trowa and Amy were together.
Quatre and Mina were always together. Wufei and Raye stayed together. And Heero
and Serena stayed in each other's arms, hand in hand for the entire time.
On the
fourth day, which was a beautiful Saturday, at precisely 2:25PM, Heero made a
choice that would affect him for the rest of his life. In the courtyard, making
sure that everyone heard he said ,"When Serena comes out, I'm going to ask
her.". She came out at 2:30PM, finding Heero alone. Everyone was hiding in
the bushes. "Where's everyone, my love?" she asked. Heero responded
in a firm voice, holding out a small royal blue box ,"Serena, will you
marry me?" Serena was breathless when she saw the ring. It was a beautiful
Diamond ring with two emeralds, two rubies, two sapphires, and two topazes. He
pointed out that a second diamond was made for the ring. "I would be
honored to marry you, Heero." she said, firmly. "With this bond, the
Sailor Scouts and the Gundam Pilots will be joined together in the name of
Peace." Heero said with dignity in his voice. He then put the ring on her finger,
kissing her.
After he
placed the ring, the Sailor Scouts and the Gundam Pilots jumped out to
congratulate the newly betrothed couple. The wedding took place in the Tokyo
Starlight Tower on next Saturday at exactly 5PM. Quatre and Trowa took care of
reserving the tower. Wufei informed everyone involved. Duo's assignment was
Heero's tuxedo. The girls had Serena's wedding gown custom made. And Zechs and
Noin took care of the other various arrangements, including catering and
coordinating the efforts being made.
Pre-wedding
arrangements included Zechs as Best Man and Relena as Serena's Bridesmaid.
Since Heero was her best friend, Relena comforted Serena every step of the way.
Promptly
at 5PM, the wedding commenced at the Starlight Tower. The government official
marrying Heero and Serena was the head of the Preventers, Lady Une. Maremaia
Khushrenada, now adopted by Lady Une, was the witness.
"Do
you, Heero Yuy, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife, till death do
you part?" Lady Une asked. "I do." said Heero. "And you,
Serena Tsukino, do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband, till
death do you part?" asked Lady Une to Serena. "I do." she
returned. "Maremaia, will you do the honors?" said Lady Une. Maremaia
said confidently ,"I now pronounce you Husband and Wife. You may kiss the
bride.". Heero then romantically kissed Serena as she threw the bouquet.
Relena caught it and congratulated the newlyweds. "I hope you find that
someone special soon, Relena." says Serena. "Thank you, my friend. I
hope you have a long passionate life together." says Relena, giving them
her phone number. A white limo then pulled up. Serena and Heero got in and took
off into the sunset.
