TEASER :)
Cid Highwind made his way quickly to the mailbox at the gate of the white picket fence that surrounded his small house on the outskirts of Rocket Town. His wife of almost two years, Shera, loved the little white fence. Cid hated it, it was a tribute to sissery and was far to girly for him, but if his daling Shera liked it, he was willing to make sacrifices, even if it did immasculate him. He sought solace in the mail he quickly pulled from the box. He lit up a cigarette and began to read the addresses aloud to himself.
"Bill, shit! You go in the garbage disposal as soon as I get my ass back in the house,"
"Mr. Cid Highwind, You could have just won 10,000,000 gil. Yeah, in a rat's ass,"
"Please donate to Aviation Affecionados: A father/son bonding troop. Sounds like something little boys and their pansy-ass daddies do on sunny afternoons,"
"Missing for two weeks, Have You Seen Me? Yuki Hojo, age 17, height 5' 3''. Eyes:Orange, Hair:Black. Ah, good riddance, at least she doesn't look like her father, (shudder)."
A small cream colored envelope caught his eye. It was addressed to him and Shera and was written in beautiful calligraphy and smelled of flowers. He quickly opened it, as he did, several dried flower petals fluttered to the ground unleashing a rich and blissful aroma from the envelope. The small card within the envelope was an invitation, written in the same beautiful handwriting as the outside, Cid momentarily marveled at its perfection before reading the invitation. It read:
Dear Cid and Shera Highwind,
Vincent Valentine and Lily Newlite cordially invite you to Costa Del Sol for their celebration of Holy Matrimony at the Our Lady of the Waters Cathedral on May 12 at five p. m.
"I'll be damned," Cid thought ouloud to himself."Vincent' going to marry that nurse he met while at the hydroelectric plant in Junon. Who'da thunk it?"
He turned toward the house and rather unceremoniously shouted to Shera,"Hey, Shera, Baby! Guess Who's getting married? Old Freaky deak Valentine! This is something I gotta see,"
"Cid, be nice," a calm voice, accostomed to the outbursts came from the open kitchen window,"Come have some tea darling, we can discuss this quietly. I don't think your close friend would want you shouting about his personal life at such a high decibel level,"
"Coming Shera, the love of my life," He replied sweetly.
"Oh, Cid," came from the window, followed by a girlish giggle.
Cid headed back up the path to his front door. He entered his home and proceeded to hide the bill on top of the grandfather clock (Shera wasn't tall enough to reach the top, which is why he used it for a hiding place) that had been a wedding present from Reeve. He couldn't understand why people gave you the most pointless shit for wedding presents? What the hell did a grandfather clock have to do with getting married? He'd never figured it out, but at least Vincent had given them a decent present, a beautifully carved statue of a man and woman sharing an intimate kiss. Cid wasn't a "soft" man, but he felt the statue was perfect, he loved it best of all the presents, especially when its competitors were things like a grandfather clock and a blender (a gift from Tifa, What the hell?)
He and Shera spent the rest of the morning talking about the invitation, Lily and plans for traveling. Shera got very excited and went out to buy a wedding present, she came back with baby crib and a stuffed Carbuncle. Cid was dumbfounded.
"Why the hell did you buy them that? They're not even married yet and you buy the a f%@&*ing baby crib?"
"Women't intuition. Besides, you needed a hint to start thinking about something,"
"Ouch."
