Chapter 9~
I Do
Tony was sitting at a table at Mario's with Dr. Bellows and Amanda. They were busy talking about Major Healey's wedding that would be taking place within two hours.
"I do hope our food will be arriving shortly, we need to be heading to the gardens so we will be ready for Major Healey's wedding."
"Oh I'm sure it will be darling." Amanda said getting a little frustrated at her husband.
Tony was in a daze and barely heard Mr. and Mrs. Bellows arguing about how Mrs. Bellows should hold her flowers.
"So major, when are you going to get married?" Amanda asked, going straight to the point.
"Amanda, don't prod." Her husband scolded.
"That's all right Dr. Bellows. Um, well I'm not sure when I will get married." He said and the three of them waited for their food to arrive.
"Well you do have a girlfriend don't you?" Amanda asked, not being able to keep quiet
"Yes."
"DO you love her?"
"Of course I do Mrs. Bellows."
"Well then what is the problem?"
"I.. well I'm not sure." Tony said and thought about it.
"Ah the food is here." Dr. Bellows announced and the three of them ate. ~*~
A restaurant away Jeannie and Kyle were almost done with their own food.
"Would you like to go dancing tomorrow?" Kyle asked finishing his roll.
"I do not think so Kyle. I like you a lot, but I am Major Nelson's girlfriend."
"Yeah I know, I wish you weren't." He said and put his hand over hers.
Jeannie jumped up at the gesture and grabbed her purse.
"Kyle I want to go to the gardens now."
"I thought we could stay a little while longer and maybe have some dessert.
"No, I don't want dessert, please?"
"Sure." He said and stood.
The two walked out and got into the car. Jeannie was quiet all the way there and couldn't wait until she could see her master.
~*~
Jeannie was upset when she got there and found out her master wasn't there yet. But she was soon feeling much better as she went to help Lili with her wedding dress.
"Oh I am so happy Jeannie." Lili said as she looked into the mirror.
"I am glad Lili, no one deserves this more then you and Roger."
"What about you and Tony?"
"Well I am not sure."
"Don't you love him?"
The question took Jeannie by surprise.
"Of course I love him. I love him more then anything else in the world."
"Well then what is the problem?"
"He hasn't asked me yet."
~*~
Tony, Mr. and Mrs. Bellows arrived and Tony went to see Roger.
"Hey Rog. You ready?"
"Yes.no.yes."
"Ummm, good."
"Tony I'm nervous."
"About what?"
"Everything."
Tony smiled at his friend and straightened his tie.
"Well, no one deserves this more then you and Lili."
"Hey Tony?"
"Yeah?"
"Are you ever going to marry Jeannie?"
Tony didn't answer right away; he walked up to the mirror to fix his hair.
"Maybe someday Rog."
~*~
Jeannie was sitting next to Dr. and Mrs. Bellows and watched as the bridal party started walking down the aisle. When Tony walked by Jeannie smiled at how wonderful he looked, but then she saw Melody. Jeannie was quick to notice that their arms were linked. She wanted to blink her into oblivion, but decided better of it.
Everyone stood as Lili came walking down the aisle. She was beautiful, and as she got up to were Roger was waiting, Jeannie noticed him let out a breath of air and smile as he took her hand.
"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to bear witness as we join this man and this woman in the bonds of Holy Matrimony." the minister started and said more words to the congregation.
Jeannie looked over to Mrs. Bellows who was crying.
"Oh Mrs. Bellows, what is the matter?"
"Oh nothing dear, I just always cry at weddings."
Thinking it was the right thing to do, Jeannie started to cry as well.
~*~
The rest of the wedding was beautiful and the reception was wonderful.
Although Jeannie got a little uptight as she watched Melody dance with her master, she kept calm and waited for him to come over and sit with her.
"Hello Jeannie."
"Hello master."
"Is something the matter?"
"Oh no, nothing."
Jeannie looked over to where Lili and Roger was sitting and smiled. Another dance started and Tony got to his feet.
"Miss Jeannie, may I have this dance."
Jeannie looked up at her master and found she couldn't move right away.
"I would love to Tony."
He smiled that priceless smile and took her hand.
As they made their way to the floor, Mrs. Bellows was watching intently.
"Oh Alfred isn't this wonderful. Maybe he will marry her!"
"Amanda I don't want to hear anymore about it. Now, would you like to dance?"
"Of course darling."
Tony put his arm around Jeannie's waist and pulled her to him. She was so comfortable in his arms. Jeannie loved the way he danced with her. But just as soon the dance was over and Tony and Jeannie went to say goodbye to Lili and Roger.
"Goodbye Lili," Jeannie said and hugged her friend.
"Oh goodbye Jeannie."
"I do hope you have a good time on your honeymoon."
"Oh I'm sure we will," Lili said with a glint in her eye.
As Tony was saying his goodbyes, Jeannie's eyes wondered over to the gift table.
"Oh my gosh! I forgot your present."
"It's okay Jeannie, Roger and I have been talking it over and I know what you can give Lili for a gift."
"What?"
Tony didn't answer, just nodded to Roger and walked outside. The girls followed them until they were out of earshot to everyone.
"Go ahead Jeannie."
"Go ahead and what?"
"Give them whatever they want."
Jeannie smiled knowingly and looked to Lili.
"What is it you would like for a wedding present?"
"Um, oh! I know. A whole new bed with a new frame, sheets, comforters, and pillows." She said dreaming.
"Okay."
"What?"
Lili watched as Jeannie folded her arms and blinked.
Right in front of her eyes was the bed and bedspreads she wanted.
"How.. how did you do that."
"Well, I am a genie."
Lili's eyes grew big and she smiled.
"That's great. I know a genie!"
"Your not shocked?" Roger asked looking shocked himself.
"Well yes but what did you expect me to do? Pass out?"
"Well yes."
"Oh come on darling. Who would pass out?"
"I did."
"Well you're a man."
Jeannie laughed and blinked up the limo Lili and Roger would be riding in.
"Well have a good time." Tony said putting an arm around Jeannie and watching them go.
As the car drove away Tony and Jeannie were waving.
"Do you think they're looking?" Tony asked softly.
"No. I know I wouldn't be." She looked at her master and kissed him. Pulling away she blinked and the two were gone.
