Author's Time: The final chapter and you know what that means! No more cliffhangers! All right! Thanks sooo much for reading and reviewing, now, the last chapter... O yes! Please note that I'm going to use some of my pervious ideas from my other marriage fanfic. WARNING! THIS IS A LONG ONE! But let me tell you, it's worth it if you read this far!

"O man...what happened..." Shinobu said to herself as she got off the floor in the living room. The place was a mess, bottles and cans everywhere, chairs pushed down, dirt on the walls, and so on.
"Woo! What a party..." Kitsune said, waking up.
"I can't remember what happened last night..." By now, everyone was up and started to clean up.
"Hey Su, can you get the table cloth that's covering the sofa?" Shinobu asked. Su walked over and picked it up.
"Hey...do you mind? Me and Keitaro are trying to sleep here..." Naru said in a tired voice, grabbing the table cloth and used it like a blanket.
"Oops, sorry Naru..." Su said walking back to Shinobu.
"Where's the table cloth?" She asked her.
"Naru and Keitaro are using it to cover themselves." She said to her.
"Ahh, Sempai and Naru are....huh?"
Chapter 5: The Wedding and Reception
"Good morning Kei-kun!" Mutsumi greeted as she entered his room. It's been two weeks since Naru propose to Keitaro and as a result, the wedding of Keitaro Urashima and Naru Narusegawa was set to Saturday...which is...
"Two more days 'til I'm a married man!" Keitaro shouted. "O my Kei-kun, it seems you are ready for this." She said, with her hand over her mouth.
"Of course I am! I've been dreaming of this day to come! No really...thanks to your blue feather, I've been dreaming of this day...and sadly nothing else..." Keitaro said, looking at her strangely.
"Fu fu fu, I see. I also sent out the invitations like you asked me too. If you don't mind asking, who did you ask as your best man?" Mutsumi asked.
"Seta of course...I did have two other friends...now if only I could remember their names...O well...what about Naru? Who did she pick?" Keitaro asked.
"Well...she never said..." Mutsumi said to him.
"Really? We'll see about that...hey Naru?" Keitaro called, going to the hole.
"Keitaro?! Wait! I'm...!" Keitaro's head was through the hole and caught Naru changing again. Instantly, Keitaro was smashed back down to his room.
"Dammit Keitaro! Engaged or not, that's still annoying!" Naru yelled at him.
"O my, looks like things will never change..." Mutsumi said in delight.
**
"I'm going to work!" Naru called, foot outside the door.
"Hey Naru! How about a kiss before you go!" Keitaro said, puckering up.
"O geez look at the time...see you all later!" Naru said running of while Keitaro fell over.
"Heh, even engaged, you still can't get a kiss from her..." Kitsune said.
"Laugh it up all you want Kitsune, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm still going to marry her!" Keitaro said with pride.
"Hey K-boy, wouldn't be really funny if Naru ditched at the last moment? You know, like in the movie 'runaway bride'? She chokes and just runs. You know, now that I mention it...it'll be just like her to do that..." Kitsune said.
"Kitsune! Don't jinx it!" Shinobu cried, covering her mouth.
"O no! It would be just like her!" Keitaro said, beginning to cry.
"Hey, don't sweat though, we'll cover!" Kitsune said.
"Heh, thanks...well, I need to run an errand so, I'll catch you later!" Keitaro said, walking off.
"Kitsune, I need to talk to you." Kanako said to her, tapping her shoulder.
"Yes?"
"I need to revisit the fact that we can't have an after party at all. Our funds are too low..." Kanako said.
"Don't worry about it! I'll take care of everything!"
**
"What a day!" Naru said, walking home from teaching.
"Na-chan!" Mutsumi called, running towards her.
"Hey Mutsumi! What's up!?" Naru asked. "Nothing much, I just wanted to know who you were going to chose as your maid of honor?" she asked.
"Well, to tell you the truth, I'm not sure. We have a whole dorm filled with girls that I've been friends with since...o I can't remember. Kitsune has been my best friend up 'til now and well..." Naru started.
"I see, so you're going to chose Kitsune." Mutsumi said to her.
"Nope, I'm asking you Mutsumi. We've been together for awhile and were there whenever I needed help. Sure, you weren't the best of help...but you were there to say the least! And you are great friends with me and Keitaro. So Mutsumi, will you be my maid of honor?" Naru asked.
"Of course Na-chan!" She said happily.
"You know, wedding day draws near, you nervous?" "Not really, I'm nervous yes, but after that...then I'll be fine..." Naru said to her, walking along.
"O my, so you're not at all nervous of wedding night then?" Mutsumi asked.
"Wedding night?!" Naru suddenly remembered.
**
Day of the Wedding...
"Looking good Keitaro!" Seta said, looking at Keitaro in his tux.
"Thanks Seta..." He said letting out a sigh.
"You getting cold feet again?" He asked.
"Yeah...I mean, everything is going to change when tonight is over... nothing's going to be the same..." Keitaro said to him.
"O...well, I guess this won't help but some of the guys found the stash of alcohol before they entered the church...good luck!" Seta called, running off.
"They WHAT!"
**
The bells tolled and the wedding was on their way. Two by two they walked down the aisle and finally Keitaro walked down the aisle. He stopped in front of the alter, like he did some many times in his dream before. Then, the music started and walking down the aisle, Naru walked down wearing the most beautiful dress ever. Everyone was in awe and taking pictures. Keitaro stood there dumb struck for awhile.
[O man, she's so beautiful...] he thought as she stood next to him. Naru turned and they were face to face, looking into each other's eyes. Nothing could break the moment...until...
"WOOT WOOT! GO KEITARO!" someone called. A sweat drop appeared on Keitaro's head.
[O no, Seta was right...some people did get into the liquor...] Just then, wild thoughts ran through his head about Naru and himself.
"COME ON KEITARO! WE DIDN'T PAY TO SEE YOU STAND THERE!" another person called.
"Shut up! You didn't pay diddly squat to be here!" Kitsune called. The priest came down and looked at the two.
"Don't worry about your friends, I've been taught to ignore them..." He said to calm them down.
"HEY! WE WANT SOME PEANUTS!" "PEANUTS! PEANUTS!" they chanted. A sweat drop appeared on the priest's head.
"O boy...today is going to drag on..." He said opening his bible. He cleared his throat.
"Welcome! Brothers and sisters! We are here today, to see Keitaro Urashima, and Naru Narusegawa join in holy matrimony. You have seen these two together, being friends to each other, helping each other out whenever they need it and so on and so forth. We have seen these two get close together at times and other times, move away from each other..."
"MOSTLY MOVING AWAY TO BE EXACT!" someone called.
"...and now these two have decided to become one, to be married to each other." The priest continued with his speech. He walked to the podium and started to read form the bible.
"Hey Kitsune...something has been bothering me...how did you find a reception place that pays what we have?" Shinobu whispered to her.
"Er...I'd rather not talk about it right now...hehe..." She whispered to her. After the readings, the priest went to Keitaro and Naru.
"Wow, so many people want to see these two marry. It's a full house today..." The priest said.
"YEAH! FULL HOUSE! RAISE THE ROOF!" someone called.
Then, the prient leaned over to Keitaro. "How did you manage to get so many friends here..." He asked.
"CHUG! CHUG! CHUG! CHUG!" they chanted.
"Sir...I wish I could give you an answer..." Keitaro said to him as the priest straightened back up.
"Um...yes, well, moving along..." He started.
"THAT'S RIGHT BITCH! MOVE ALONG!" someone called.
"WILL YOU PLEASE BE QUIET!" the priest yelled! They all shut up.
"That's beter..." he said, clearing his throat.
"...it's going to be a long day... Now we will hear the statement of intentions." He said, taking an aspirin.
"YEAH! STATEMENT OF IN-TEN-IONS? YEAH, INTENIONS!" they cheered, giving high fives. The priest handed Keitaro a flashcard.
"Read the print kid…" the priest said, patting him on the back. As Keitaro looks at the flashcard and his eyes were starting to blur up and he became hesitant.
"Um….I, Keitaro….take you…N-N-N…"
"Naru…" The priest said behind his shoulder.
"Naru, to be my…w-w-w…"
"wife…"
" um, wife. I promise to be …true to you in…good times…and in bad? Yeah, bad. In sickness and in…health?" The priest let out a sigh.
"Yes, health"
"Um…health. I will…love you…and honor you all the days of my….life. whew…" The priest sighed with relief, and handed Naru her flashcard.
"Ok, I Naru, take you, Keitaro, to be my husband. I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health. I will love you and honor you all the days of my life." She said in a breeze. The priest walked over to Keitaro.
"Good luck kid..." he whispered to him. The wedding continued and ask the priest talked, the crowd shouted, and the more aspirin everyone took.
"Finally! Now we will say those words of bonding...Do you take Naru to be your lawfully wedded wife?" The priest asked.
"I do" Keitaro said.
"And do you Naru, take Keitaro to be your lawfully wedded husband?" He asked her. Keitaro looked behind him and received a thumbs up from Kitsune. Then she looked behind her to see Motoko and Kanako guarding the door. Naru stalled for awhile and looked behind her. There she saw Motoko's blade out and Kanako in a fighting stance.
"Er! I do!" she called.
"YEAH! I DO ALSO!" some guy said. "Whoever should think these two shouldn't marry, speak now or forever hold your peace..."
Then, Kanako yelled, "I do!"
"O no you don't!" Mutsumi said, carrying her away.
"...um, ok...then, by the power vested in me and the church I now pronounce you..."
"SUCK!"
"...grr, pronounce you..."
"SUCK!"
"Man and wife! You may now kiss the bride while I got over there and teach someone a lesson!" The priest called, running towards the back. Keitaro and Naru both looked at each other. Keitaro removed the cloth that covered her face and kissed her. Everyone cheered for them...either that or the fight that was going on in the back. Kitsune then ran to the front of the church.
"Everyone! You are all invited to come to the after party, six blocks away from here!" She called. And from there, the madness didn't stop...
**
The After Party...
"Check this place out..." Keitaro said, looking at the place that was holding the reception. It was inside a fancy hotel, inside the ball room which was the size of a gym.
"Kitsune...how in the world did you afford something like this?" Naru asked her.
"Don't worry about it! Nothing less for my best friends." She said, patting them on the shoulder.
"Wow, thanks a lot Kitsune..." Naru said to her.
"But you know...there has to be a catch somewhere..." Keitaro said to her.
"Don't worry! No catches! Just enjoy yourselves!"
Two minutes later...
"I knew there was a catch...." Keitaro said in disappointment as he and Naru sat down with everyone else.
"It isn't that big...you just have to be outta here before nine o' clock is all." Kitsune said to him, sitting next to Naru.
"But it's already seven! That's only two hours!"
"Calm down Keitaro...I have something to make it up!" She said, signaling Shinobu. Shinobu then gave Keitaro two room keys.
"Here you go Sempai; we manage to get you two a room in this hotel. I heard the rooms are really nice." Shinobu said to them.
"Yeah, and the walls are said sound proof too...but I really don't think so..." Kitsune adding, snickering as Naru jumped from her seat.
"Kitsune!" Naru yelled at her.
"You know, you still didn't tell me how you got all this." Keitaro said to Kitsune.
"Well, to tell you the truth...I'm not sure either. To make things even more funny, I'm not sure how we're going to pay for it all...hahahaha!" They all looked at her with sweat drops on heir heads. "O yes, and here, my present to you guys." She said, taking out a wrapped box.
"Something is telling me that I'm going to regret this..." Keitaro said, opening the present. He looked inside and a sweat drop appeared on his head. "...handcuffs? And some rope?"
"Ok Kitsune! That's enough! You go outside now!" Naru said, pushing her out the door.
"Heh, see you later you two" Kitsune called, being pushed out.
"O brother..." Naru said, walking back to their table. Outside, Kitsune saw Mutsumi walking towards the entrance.
"O my, why are you outside?" She asked.
"Heh, long story...is that what you're giving Keitaro and Naru?" Kitsune asked, pointing at the very large box.
"Yup! Between you and me, it's a baby cradle!" She said happily walking inside.
"O boy...looks like someone's going to join me pretty soon." Back at the party, everyone was talking, showing slide shows of the two, and eating their dinner. The cake was passed out and the good old fashion cake-in-the-face gig when on their way.
"Heh, something I was looking forward to..." Keitaro said to himself and he snuck up behind Naru and planted the cake dead on her face.
"Grr....you're so dead!" Naru screamed, chasing after Keitaro.
"Naru! Naru! Calm down!" Keitaro cried, running away.
"You're mine now!" She yelled, carrying the whole wedding cake above her head.
"Ack! No! Don't!" Keitaro bugged, but it was too late...Keitaro was pummeled into the ground, buried underneath layers and layers of cake.
"O my, nothing says 'I love you' and being creamed by your own cake..." Mutsumi said to herself.
"Can...anyone help me?" Keitaro asked, pulling himself out.
"Don't look at me, I'm off to clean myself off..." Naru said, ditching him. Kitsune then walked and with a worried face.
"Kitsune? What's wrong?" Shinobu asked.
"Um...looks like things will have to speed up now...tell them to get really for the bouquet toss and the garter toss ok?" She said to her.
"Um...ok..." Shinobu said. Just then, a voice was coming out of Kitsune's pocket. She reached in and took out a walkie talkie.
"Kitsune! We can't hold the police any longer! Tell them to hurry it up!" Motoko's voice called the static.
"Roger that..." She spoke into the walkie talkie.
"Everyone! The bouquet toss is next! Everyone report to the dance floor! Single women only!" She called, walking to the dance floor. A few minutes pass and everyone was ready.
"Alright...here we go!" Naru called, tossing the bouquet over her shoulder. It landed in the middle of everyone and from there...total chaos...
"It's mine!"
"Give it to me!"
"OW! She bit me!" Just then, the bouquet was seen in the air again and landed in Shinobu's arms.
"Eeek! I got it!" she proclaimed, but then noticed a mad rush of women coming after her. So she panicked and threw it up again. This time, it landed on the table that Haruka was sitting.
"Hmm?" She looked at it, picking it up. Then she looked over his shoulder and saw Seta sitting behind her, winking.
"O, in your dreams lover boy..." she said, punching Seta across the room. So the women cleared out of the dance floor and the men went on. Naru was sitting down and Keitaro was kneeling in front of her.
"Woohoo Keitaro! The moment you've been waiting for! Grab that garter! Use your teeth!" Kitsune shouted from across the room. "I thought I threw you out Kitsune!" Naru yelled.
"Keitaro, I swear to God, you better remove the garter and nothing else you got that!" She threaten him, blushing uncontrollably. "Yes ma'am!" he said, going underneath Naru's dress. There were a lot of howling and cheering.
"O my, I think Keitaro got lost..." Mutsumi teased. Just then, Keitaro came out with the garter in his hands.
"Whew..."
"Keitaro...be careful flinging that thing..." Naru said to him.
"Why? Think I might poke an eye out?" He asked her.
"No....all the guys here are drunk..." she said to him. Keitaro turned around and saw a lot of dazed guys with bottles in their hands.
"O.." Keitaro said, flinging it upward. All the guys looked up as it flew...then got stuck in the chandelier.
"O my god!" the guys shouted.
"Heh...oops...." Keitaro scratched his head.
"O, that was smooth..." Naru said, kicking him on the back of the head. The party continued, everyone was dancing now and the guys tried to get the garter off the chandelier. And there, in the center of it all, Keitaro and Naru danced together. Naru's head was lying on Keitaro's shoulder and his head was against her head.
"This night has been a magical one..." Naru whispered to him as then continued to dance.
"You're right Naru, and I couldn't ask for a better wife..." He said back to her. They kissed and continued to dance.
"KEITARO! NARU! You guys have to go to your room and pronto!" Kitsune interrupted the moment.
"Erg...what's wrong with you Kitsune!" Naru yelled.
"No time to explain! You guys have to go!" She said pushing them.
"Don't worry, I'll transfer all your belongings to your rooms in the morning! Just go!" She ordered them.
"Ok! OK...just calm down..." Keitaro said. "Let's go Naru..."
"...O-Ok" she trailed off. The two walked together out of the room and Kitsune let out a sigh. Motoko and Kanako both rushed in and to Kitsune.
"They are here! We couldn't hold them back!" Kanako said to her.
"Don't worry, the two are safe, let's just get everyone out and..." Kitsune started but was interrupted by the mega-phone of the police.
"Attention! We have reason to believe that this party belongs to another wedding group and we are all taking you in for stealing!" He shouted from the mega-phone. Kitsune got up on one of the tables and cupped her hands together.
"Everyone! RUN LIKE HELL!" She called as everyone panicked and ran out the door, trampling the police over.
**
"Finally...the room..." Keitaro said, kicking the door open.
"You know Keitaro; it was really romantic of you to carry me all the way to our room..." Naru trailed off.
"...but it wasn't romantic when we couldn't find it on 5 different levels...." "Heh, sorry about that Naru..." He said, carrying her to the bed. He laid her down and walked off to the bathroom.
"Man, I'm beat...I'm just going to freshen up a bit alright?" He said to her.
"Yeah yeah, I know..." Naru said to him.
[Ahh...the married life. It was really romantic that Keitaro carried me all the way here.. Now how did that rhyme go again? First comes love, then comes marriage...] Naru then choked on the last part. [...then comes Naru with a baby carriage...] She thought to herself.
"O man! I gotta stop thinking like that!" She said out loud.
"What were you thinking?" Keitaro asked as he came out of the bathroom. Naru turned her head to look at him.
"O nothing...I was just....thinkin..." she said, suddenly out of breath. Keitaro took off the black jacket and removed his glasses. His top coaler was un-buttoned and was smiling sweetly at her.
"I...I...I" Naru choked on her words. Keitaro sat next to her.
"What's wrong?" He asked in a soft voice. Naru was blushing uncontrollably, covering her face. Keitaro moved closer to her and moved her hands away from her face. They were about to kiss when Naru suddenly withdrew.
"Now what's wrong?" Keitaro asked, confused.
"I thought I heard something..." She said, looking around.
**
"Whew! We finally manage to escape those pesky police men." Kitsune said.
"It's a good thing we brought enough money to stay a night in the hotel also." Motoko said to them. They entered the room and closed the door.
"You know, this room number seems familiar somehow..." Shinobu said, looking at the room number.
"I'm pretty sure it's the same room number that you went to when you were little Shinobu." Su said to her.
"Hey you guys...I think the people next to us are getting it on!" Mutsumi said, placing a glass up against the wall.
**
Keitaro and Naru were kissing each other but then Naru push him away. "What's wrong this time?" He asked.
"I heard it again...that...thing...." she said.
"It's probably nothing Naru..." Keitaro told her, kissing her neck. Again, Naru pushed him back with her fist outstretched.
"I heard it! Again! Over there!" she said, pointing to a wall.
"You know Naru, you have a bad habit of showing someone you love them...and besides, it's probably just the elevator...you know how close we are to the elevator." He said, continuing to kiss her. But then, she held him away with her fist.
"There! Again!" she proclaimed.
"You know Naru, I'm beginning to think my wife is a little psychotic."
"I'm not psychotic! I know I heard something!" She said, getting off the bed. She grabbed a glass cup and place it against the wall she heard something. After a minute, her eyes widen and she broke the glass cup with her bare hand.
"Ow, Naru, are you ok?" Keitaro ask as Naru stomped towards Keitaro.
"I can't believe those idiots..." She said to Keitaro softly.
"What do you mean?"
"If I'm not mistaken, Mutsumi and the others are next door and listening to our every move..." She said to him.
"O great...no privacy..." He said in depression.
"Wait just a minute...I have an idea. If they are looking for a show...let's give them a show..." She said pulling Keitaro by the shirt towards her.
**
"I can't believe Naru and Keitaro are right next to us!" Kitsune said. Now everyone had a glass cup and listening.
"I knew I've seen the number somewhere...it was the number that was one off of Keitaro and Naru's room. But should we be doing this? I mean, we are disturbing their privacy..." Shinobu said to them.
"Of course we should!" Kitsune yelled at her. Just then, there was a loud moan coming from their room.
"O my god! They're doing it!"
**
"Shh! Naru! What are you doing!" Keitaro asked, sitting 3 feet away from Naru. "Heh, follow my lead." She said, letting out another moan.
**
"O Naru...i've been waiting so long for this..." they heard Keitaro's voice.
"O me, o my..." Mutsumi said, listening in. Just then, a body hit the wall, making them withdraw and went back listening. "Keitaro must have pinned her against the wall!"
**
"Keitaro...that's going too far..." Naru said, rubbing her fist. Keitaro was knocked into the wall by Naru.
"Ow Naru...do you have to punch me?"
"Just make enough noise 'til they back off." She said, winking at him.
**
"Keitaro! Get the rope and the handcuff Kitsune gave us..." Naru shouted, loud enough for them to hear.
"Oooo, I see that they're using my present the way it was meant to be used." Kitsune said. "O my, so you're the one that gave it to them."
"O! I love you Keitaro!" Naru's voice at the peak of its level.
**
"Ow..." Naru softly said, holding her throat. "I think I went over board that time..." she said. Keitaro handed her a glass of water.
"Here, now if we stay silent, they'll think we are sleeping..." Keitaro said to her. There were no sounds for ten minutes.
"Ok...I think it's safe...you ok Naru? Naru?" Keitaro asked, looking around. Then, the bathroom door opened and Naru was wearing a yukata.
"Come on Keitaro, there is a hot spring in this hotel, let's go together." She said to him.
"Um...ok. But is it fine with you? I mean, you won't freak out?" Keitaro asked.
"Of course it is, you're my husband. I'm going to have to get use to it." She winked at him. "Besides, it's only 9:30...we have all night for fun."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Alright you guys! I'm off! Wish me luck!" Shinobu called, running down the stairs of the Hinata Inn.
"Bye Shinobu! Good luck!" Keitaro shouted.
"Do your best out there Shinobu!" Naru called. She was then out of sight. Keitaro and Naru leaned against each other.
"She is off to finally take that entrance exam to Tokyo U...remember when we were like that?" Keitaro asked.
"Yeah...those were some good times..." She said, kissing him on the check. And coming from behind Naru's pant leg, a little girl peeked out. "Bai Bai Shinamu..." Ooops... but that's a whole story entirely...
The End

"O man...what happened..." Shinobu said to herself as she got off the floor in the living room. The place was a mess, bottles and cans everywhere, chairs pushed down, dirt on the walls, and so on.
"Woo! What a party..." Kitsune said, waking up.
"I can't remember what happened last night..." By now, everyone was up and started to clean up.
"Hey Su, can you get the table cloth that's covering the sofa?" Shinobu asked. Su walked over and picked it up.
"Hey...do you mind? Me and Keitaro are trying to sleep here..." Naru said in a tired voice, grabbing the table cloth and used it like a blanket.
"Oops, sorry Naru..." Su said walking back to Shinobu.
"Where's the table cloth?" She asked her.
"Naru and Keitaro are using it to cover themselves." She said to her.
"Ahh, Sempai and Naru are....huh?"
Chapter 5: The Wedding and Reception
"Good morning Kei-kun!" Mutsumi greeted as she entered his room. It's been two weeks since Naru propose to Keitaro and as a result, the wedding of Keitaro Urashima and Naru Narusegawa was set to Saturday...which is...
"Two more days 'til I'm a married man!" Keitaro shouted. "O my Kei-kun, it seems you are ready for this." She said, with her hand over her mouth.
"Of course I am! I've been dreaming of this day to come! No really...thanks to your blue feather, I've been dreaming of this day...and sadly nothing else..." Keitaro said, looking at her strangely.
"Fu fu fu, I see. I also sent out the invitations like you asked me too. If you don't mind asking, who did you ask as your best man?" Mutsumi asked.
"Seta of course...I did have two other friends...now if only I could remember their names...O well...what about Naru? Who did she pick?" Keitaro asked.
"Well...she never said..." Mutsumi said to him.
"Really? We'll see about that...hey Naru?" Keitaro called, going to the hole.
"Keitaro?! Wait! I'm...!" Keitaro's head was through the hole and caught Naru changing again. Instantly, Keitaro was smashed back down to his room.
"Dammit Keitaro! Engaged or not, that's still annoying!" Naru yelled at him.
"O my, looks like things will never change..." Mutsumi said in delight.
**
"I'm going to work!" Naru called, foot outside the door.
"Hey Naru! How about a kiss before you go!" Keitaro said, puckering up.
"O geez look at the time...see you all later!" Naru said running of while Keitaro fell over.
"Heh, even engaged, you still can't get a kiss from her..." Kitsune said.
"Laugh it up all you want Kitsune, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm still going to marry her!" Keitaro said with pride.
"Hey K-boy, wouldn't be really funny if Naru ditched at the last moment? You know, like in the movie 'runaway bride'? She chokes and just runs. You know, now that I mention it...it'll be just like her to do that..." Kitsune said.
"Kitsune! Don't jinx it!" Shinobu cried, covering her mouth.
"O no! It would be just like her!" Keitaro said, beginning to cry.
"Hey, don't sweat though, we'll cover!" Kitsune said.
"Heh, thanks...well, I need to run an errand so, I'll catch you later!" Keitaro said, walking off.
"Kitsune, I need to talk to you." Kanako said to her, tapping her shoulder.
"Yes?"
"I need to revisit the fact that we can't have an after party at all. Our funds are too low..." Kanako said.
"Don't worry about it! I'll take care of everything!"
**
"What a day!" Naru said, walking home from teaching.
"Na-chan!" Mutsumi called, running towards her.
"Hey Mutsumi! What's up!?" Naru asked. "Nothing much, I just wanted to know who you were going to chose as your maid of honor?" she asked.
"Well, to tell you the truth, I'm not sure. We have a whole dorm filled with girls that I've been friends with since...o I can't remember. Kitsune has been my best friend up 'til now and well..." Naru started.
"I see, so you're going to chose Kitsune." Mutsumi said to her.
"Nope, I'm asking you Mutsumi. We've been together for awhile and were there whenever I needed help. Sure, you weren't the best of help...but you were there to say the least! And you are great friends with me and Keitaro. So Mutsumi, will you be my maid of honor?" Naru asked.
"Of course Na-chan!" She said happily.
"You know, wedding day draws near, you nervous?" "Not really, I'm nervous yes, but after that...then I'll be fine..." Naru said to her, walking along.
"O my, so you're not at all nervous of wedding night then?" Mutsumi asked.
"Wedding night?!" Naru suddenly remembered.
**
Day of the Wedding...
"Looking good Keitaro!" Seta said, looking at Keitaro in his tux.
"Thanks Seta..." He said letting out a sigh.
"You getting cold feet again?" He asked.
"Yeah...I mean, everything is going to change when tonight is over... nothing's going to be the same..." Keitaro said to him.
"O...well, I guess this won't help but some of the guys found the stash of alcohol before they entered the church...good luck!" Seta called, running off.
"They WHAT!"
**
The bells tolled and the wedding was on their way. Two by two they walked down the aisle and finally Keitaro walked down the aisle. He stopped in front of the alter, like he did some many times in his dream before. Then, the music started and walking down the aisle, Naru walked down wearing the most beautiful dress ever. Everyone was in awe and taking pictures. Keitaro stood there dumb struck for awhile.
[O man, she's so beautiful...] he thought as she stood next to him. Naru turned and they were face to face, looking into each other's eyes. Nothing could break the moment...until...
"WOOT WOOT! GO KEITARO!" someone called. A sweat drop appeared on Keitaro's head.
[O no, Seta was right...some people did get into the liquor...] Just then, wild thoughts ran through his head about Naru and himself.
"COME ON KEITARO! WE DIDN'T PAY TO SEE YOU STAND THERE!" another person called.
"Shut up! You didn't pay diddly squat to be here!" Kitsune called. The priest came down and looked at the two.
"Don't worry about your friends, I've been taught to ignore them..." He said to calm them down.
"HEY! WE WANT SOME PEANUTS!" "PEANUTS! PEANUTS!" they chanted. A sweat drop appeared on the priest's head.
"O boy...today is going to drag on..." He said opening his bible. He cleared his throat.
"Welcome! Brothers and sisters! We are here today, to see Keitaro Urashima, and Naru Narusegawa join in holy matrimony. You have seen these two together, being friends to each other, helping each other out whenever they need it and so on and so forth. We have seen these two get close together at times and other times, move away from each other..."
"MOSTLY MOVING AWAY TO BE EXACT!" someone called.
"...and now these two have decided to become one, to be married to each other." The priest continued with his speech. He walked to the podium and started to read form the bible.
"Hey Kitsune...something has been bothering me...how did you find a reception place that pays what we have?" Shinobu whispered to her.
"Er...I'd rather not talk about it right now...hehe..." She whispered to her. After the readings, the priest went to Keitaro and Naru.
"Wow, so many people want to see these two marry. It's a full house today..." The priest said.
"YEAH! FULL HOUSE! RAISE THE ROOF!" someone called.
Then, the prient leaned over to Keitaro. "How did you manage to get so many friends here..." He asked.
"CHUG! CHUG! CHUG! CHUG!" they chanted.
"Sir...I wish I could give you an answer..." Keitaro said to him as the priest straightened back up.
"Um...yes, well, moving along..." He started.
"THAT'S RIGHT BITCH! MOVE ALONG!" someone called.
"WILL YOU PLEASE BE QUIET!" the priest yelled! They all shut up.
"That's beter..." he said, clearing his throat.
"...it's going to be a long day... Now we will hear the statement of intentions." He said, taking an aspirin.
"YEAH! STATEMENT OF IN-TEN-IONS? YEAH, INTENIONS!" they cheered, giving high fives. The priest handed Keitaro a flashcard.
"Read the print kid…" the priest said, patting him on the back. As Keitaro looks at the flashcard and his eyes were starting to blur up and he became hesitant.
"Um….I, Keitaro….take you…N-N-N…"
"Naru…" The priest said behind his shoulder.
"Naru, to be my…w-w-w…"
"wife…"
" um, wife. I promise to be …true to you in…good times…and in bad? Yeah, bad. In sickness and in…health?" The priest let out a sigh.
"Yes, health"
"Um…health. I will…love you…and honor you all the days of my….life. whew…" The priest sighed with relief, and handed Naru her flashcard.
"Ok, I Naru, take you, Keitaro, to be my husband. I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health. I will love you and honor you all the days of my life." She said in a breeze. The priest walked over to Keitaro.
"Good luck kid..." he whispered to him. The wedding continued and ask the priest talked, the crowd shouted, and the more aspirin everyone took.
"Finally! Now we will say those words of bonding...Do you take Naru to be your lawfully wedded wife?" The priest asked.
"I do" Keitaro said.
"And do you Naru, take Keitaro to be your lawfully wedded husband?" He asked her. Keitaro looked behind him and received a thumbs up from Kitsune. Then she looked behind her to see Motoko and Kanako guarding the door. Naru stalled for awhile and looked behind her. There she saw Motoko's blade out and Kanako in a fighting stance.
"Er! I do!" she called.
"YEAH! I DO ALSO!" some guy said. "Whoever should think these two shouldn't marry, speak now or forever hold your peace..."
Then, Kanako yelled, "I do!"
"O no you don't!" Mutsumi said, carrying her away.
"...um, ok...then, by the power vested in me and the church I now pronounce you..."
"SUCK!"
"...grr, pronounce you..."
"SUCK!"
"Man and wife! You may now kiss the bride while I got over there and teach someone a lesson!" The priest called, running towards the back. Keitaro and Naru both looked at each other. Keitaro removed the cloth that covered her face and kissed her. Everyone cheered for them...either that or the fight that was going on in the back. Kitsune then ran to the front of the church.
"Everyone! You are all invited to come to the after party, six blocks away from here!" She called. And from there, the madness didn't stop...
**
The After Party...
"Check this place out..." Keitaro said, looking at the place that was holding the reception. It was inside a fancy hotel, inside the ball room which was the size of a gym.
"Kitsune...how in the world did you afford something like this?" Naru asked her.
"Don't worry about it! Nothing less for my best friends." She said, patting them on the shoulder.
"Wow, thanks a lot Kitsune..." Naru said to her.
"But you know...there has to be a catch somewhere..." Keitaro said to her.
"Don't worry! No catches! Just enjoy yourselves!"
Two minutes later...
"I knew there was a catch...." Keitaro said in disappointment as he and Naru sat down with everyone else.
"It isn't that big...you just have to be outta here before nine o' clock is all." Kitsune said to him, sitting next to Naru.
"But it's already seven! That's only two hours!"
"Calm down Keitaro...I have something to make it up!" She said, signaling Shinobu. Shinobu then gave Keitaro two room keys.
"Here you go Sempai; we manage to get you two a room in this hotel. I heard the rooms are really nice." Shinobu said to them.
"Yeah, and the walls are said sound proof too...but I really don't think so..." Kitsune adding, snickering as Naru jumped from her seat.
"Kitsune!" Naru yelled at her.
"You know, you still didn't tell me how you got all this." Keitaro said to Kitsune.
"Well, to tell you the truth...I'm not sure either. To make things even more funny, I'm not sure how we're going to pay for it all...hahahaha!" They all looked at her with sweat drops on heir heads. "O yes, and here, my present to you guys." She said, taking out a wrapped box.
"Something is telling me that I'm going to regret this..." Keitaro said, opening the present. He looked inside and a sweat drop appeared on his head. "...handcuffs? And some rope?"
"Ok Kitsune! That's enough! You go outside now!" Naru said, pushing her out the door.
"Heh, see you later you two" Kitsune called, being pushed out.
"O brother..." Naru said, walking back to their table. Outside, Kitsune saw Mutsumi walking towards the entrance.
"O my, why are you outside?" She asked.
"Heh, long story...is that what you're giving Keitaro and Naru?" Kitsune asked, pointing at the very large box.
"Yup! Between you and me, it's a baby cradle!" She said happily walking inside.
"O boy...looks like someone's going to join me pretty soon." Back at the party, everyone was talking, showing slide shows of the two, and eating their dinner. The cake was passed out and the good old fashion cake-in-the-face gig when on their way.
"Heh, something I was looking forward to..." Keitaro said to himself and he snuck up behind Naru and planted the cake dead on her face.
"Grr....you're so dead!" Naru screamed, chasing after Keitaro.
"Naru! Naru! Calm down!" Keitaro cried, running away.
"You're mine now!" She yelled, carrying the whole wedding cake above her head.
"Ack! No! Don't!" Keitaro bugged, but it was too late...Keitaro was pummeled into the ground, buried underneath layers and layers of cake.
"O my, nothing says 'I love you' and being creamed by your own cake..." Mutsumi said to herself.
"Can...anyone help me?" Keitaro asked, pulling himself out.
"Don't look at me, I'm off to clean myself off..." Naru said, ditching him. Kitsune then walked and with a worried face.
"Kitsune? What's wrong?" Shinobu asked.
"Um...looks like things will have to speed up now...tell them to get really for the bouquet toss and the garter toss ok?" She said to her.
"Um...ok..." Shinobu said. Just then, a voice was coming out of Kitsune's pocket. She reached in and took out a walkie talkie.
"Kitsune! We can't hold the police any longer! Tell them to hurry it up!" Motoko's voice called the static.
"Roger that..." She spoke into the walkie talkie.
"Everyone! The bouquet toss is next! Everyone report to the dance floor! Single women only!" She called, walking to the dance floor. A few minutes pass and everyone was ready.
"Alright...here we go!" Naru called, tossing the bouquet over her shoulder. It landed in the middle of everyone and from there...total chaos...
"It's mine!"
"Give it to me!"
"OW! She bit me!" Just then, the bouquet was seen in the air again and landed in Shinobu's arms.
"Eeek! I got it!" she proclaimed, but then noticed a mad rush of women coming after her. So she panicked and threw it up again. This time, it landed on the table that Haruka was sitting.
"Hmm?" She looked at it, picking it up. Then she looked over his shoulder and saw Seta sitting behind her, winking.
"O, in your dreams lover boy..." she said, punching Seta across the room. So the women cleared out of the dance floor and the men went on. Naru was sitting down and Keitaro was kneeling in front of her.
"Woohoo Keitaro! The moment you've been waiting for! Grab that garter! Use your teeth!" Kitsune shouted from across the room. "I thought I threw you out Kitsune!" Naru yelled.
"Keitaro, I swear to God, you better remove the garter and nothing else you got that!" She threaten him, blushing uncontrollably. "Yes ma'am!" he said, going underneath Naru's dress. There were a lot of howling and cheering.
"O my, I think Keitaro got lost..." Mutsumi teased. Just then, Keitaro came out with the garter in his hands.
"Whew..."
"Keitaro...be careful flinging that thing..." Naru said to him.
"Why? Think I might poke an eye out?" He asked her.
"No....all the guys here are drunk..." she said to him. Keitaro turned around and saw a lot of dazed guys with bottles in their hands.
"O.." Keitaro said, flinging it upward. All the guys looked up as it flew...then got stuck in the chandelier.
"O my god!" the guys shouted.
"Heh...oops...." Keitaro scratched his head.
"O, that was smooth..." Naru said, kicking him on the back of the head. The party continued, everyone was dancing now and the guys tried to get the garter off the chandelier. And there, in the center of it all, Keitaro and Naru danced together. Naru's head was lying on Keitaro's shoulder and his head was against her head.
"This night has been a magical one..." Naru whispered to him as then continued to dance.
"You're right Naru, and I couldn't ask for a better wife..." He said back to her. They kissed and continued to dance.
"KEITARO! NARU! You guys have to go to your room and pronto!" Kitsune interrupted the moment.
"Erg...what's wrong with you Kitsune!" Naru yelled.
"No time to explain! You guys have to go!" She said pushing them.
"Don't worry, I'll transfer all your belongings to your rooms in the morning! Just go!" She ordered them.
"Ok! OK...just calm down..." Keitaro said. "Let's go Naru..."
"...O-Ok" she trailed off. The two walked together out of the room and Kitsune let out a sigh. Motoko and Kanako both rushed in and to Kitsune.
"They are here! We couldn't hold them back!" Kanako said to her.
"Don't worry, the two are safe, let's just get everyone out and..." Kitsune started but was interrupted by the mega-phone of the police.
"Attention! We have reason to believe that this party belongs to another wedding group and we are all taking you in for stealing!" He shouted from the mega-phone. Kitsune got up on one of the tables and cupped her hands together.
"Everyone! RUN LIKE HELL!" She called as everyone panicked and ran out the door, trampling the police over.
**
"Finally...the room..." Keitaro said, kicking the door open.
"You know Keitaro; it was really romantic of you to carry me all the way to our room..." Naru trailed off.
"...but it wasn't romantic when we couldn't find it on 5 different levels...." "Heh, sorry about that Naru..." He said, carrying her to the bed. He laid her down and walked off to the bathroom.
"Man, I'm beat...I'm just going to freshen up a bit alright?" He said to her.
"Yeah yeah, I know..." Naru said to him.
[Ahh...the married life. It was really romantic that Keitaro carried me all the way here.. Now how did that rhyme go again? First comes love, then comes marriage...] Naru then choked on the last part. [...then comes Naru with a baby carriage...] She thought to herself.
"O man! I gotta stop thinking like that!" She said out loud.
"What were you thinking?" Keitaro asked as he came out of the bathroom. Naru turned her head to look at him.
"O nothing...I was just....thinkin..." she said, suddenly out of breath. Keitaro took off the black jacket and removed his glasses. His top coaler was un-buttoned and was smiling sweetly at her.
"I...I...I" Naru choked on her words. Keitaro sat next to her.
"What's wrong?" He asked in a soft voice. Naru was blushing uncontrollably, covering her face. Keitaro moved closer to her and moved her hands away from her face. They were about to kiss when Naru suddenly withdrew.
"Now what's wrong?" Keitaro asked, confused.
"I thought I heard something..." She said, looking around.
**
"Whew! We finally manage to escape those pesky police men." Kitsune said.
"It's a good thing we brought enough money to stay a night in the hotel also." Motoko said to them. They entered the room and closed the door.
"You know, this room number seems familiar somehow..." Shinobu said, looking at the room number.
"I'm pretty sure it's the same room number that you went to when you were little Shinobu." Su said to her.
"Hey you guys...I think the people next to us are getting it on!" Mutsumi said, placing a glass up against the wall.
**
Keitaro and Naru were kissing each other but then Naru push him away. "What's wrong this time?" He asked.
"I heard it again...that...thing...." she said.
"It's probably nothing Naru..." Keitaro told her, kissing her neck. Again, Naru pushed him back with her fist outstretched.
"I heard it! Again! Over there!" she said, pointing to a wall.
"You know Naru, you have a bad habit of showing someone you love them...and besides, it's probably just the elevator...you know how close we are to the elevator." He said, continuing to kiss her. But then, she held him away with her fist.
"There! Again!" she proclaimed.
"You know Naru, I'm beginning to think my wife is a little psychotic."
"I'm not psychotic! I know I heard something!" She said, getting off the bed. She grabbed a glass cup and place it against the wall she heard something. After a minute, her eyes widen and she broke the glass cup with her bare hand.
"Ow, Naru, are you ok?" Keitaro ask as Naru stomped towards Keitaro.
"I can't believe those idiots..." She said to Keitaro softly.
"What do you mean?"
"If I'm not mistaken, Mutsumi and the others are next door and listening to our every move..." She said to him.
"O great...no privacy..." He said in depression.
"Wait just a minute...I have an idea. If they are looking for a show...let's give them a show..." She said pulling Keitaro by the shirt towards her.
**
"I can't believe Naru and Keitaro are right next to us!" Kitsune said. Now everyone had a glass cup and listening.
"I knew I've seen the number somewhere...it was the number that was one off of Keitaro and Naru's room. But should we be doing this? I mean, we are disturbing their privacy..." Shinobu said to them.
"Of course we should!" Kitsune yelled at her. Just then, there was a loud moan coming from their room.
"O my god! They're doing it!"
**
"Shh! Naru! What are you doing!" Keitaro asked, sitting 3 feet away from Naru. "Heh, follow my lead." She said, letting out another moan.
**
"O Naru...i've been waiting so long for this..." they heard Keitaro's voice.
"O me, o my..." Mutsumi said, listening in. Just then, a body hit the wall, making them withdraw and went back listening. "Keitaro must have pinned her against the wall!"
**
"Keitaro...that's going too far..." Naru said, rubbing her fist. Keitaro was knocked into the wall by Naru.
"Ow Naru...do you have to punch me?"
"Just make enough noise 'til they back off." She said, winking at him.
**
"Keitaro! Get the rope and the handcuff Kitsune gave us..." Naru shouted, loud enough for them to hear.
"Oooo, I see that they're using my present the way it was meant to be used." Kitsune said. "O my, so you're the one that gave it to them."
"O! I love you Keitaro!" Naru's voice at the peak of its level.
**
"Ow..." Naru softly said, holding her throat. "I think I went over board that time..." she said. Keitaro handed her a glass of water.
"Here, now if we stay silent, they'll think we are sleeping..." Keitaro said to her. There were no sounds for ten minutes.
"Ok...I think it's safe...you ok Naru? Naru?" Keitaro asked, looking around. Then, the bathroom door opened and Naru was wearing a yukata.
"Come on Keitaro, there is a hot spring in this hotel, let's go together." She said to him.
"Um...ok. But is it fine with you? I mean, you won't freak out?" Keitaro asked.
"Of course it is, you're my husband. I'm going to have to get use to it." She winked at him. "Besides, it's only 9:30...we have all night for fun."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Alright you guys! I'm off! Wish me luck!" Shinobu called, running down the stairs of the Hinata Inn.
"Bye Shinobu! Good luck!" Keitaro shouted.
"Do your best out there Shinobu!" Naru called. She was then out of sight. Keitaro and Naru leaned against each other.
"She is off to finally take that entrance exam to Tokyo U...remember when we were like that?" Keitaro asked.
"Yeah...those were some good times..." She said, kissing him on the check. And coming from behind Naru's pant leg, a little girl peeked out. "Bai Bai Shinamu..." Ooops... but that's a whole story entirely...
The End
