Hey people! Thanks for the nineteen reviews! Some reviewers thought that this story was over and it is not! This story won't be over for awhile (until the Trojan War has ended) and the sequel thing was just what I am thinking about for the sequel. I am going to a concert tonight so this might be a short chapter. Yes, this is the wedding chapter! Also, Gabrielle and Patroclus meet for the first time and sparks will fly. I might to a separate story of just Gabrielle and Patroclus but it depends on what you all want!
Here is the vote!
If you all want a Achilles/Briseis sequel and a Gabrielle/Patroclus sequel
Or
Just a Achilles/Briseis sequel?
Tell me what you all want in your reviews. If you chose A/B and G/P stories, I will write the A/B one first than the G/P one. Review!
Here is…
Chapter Seventeen
The cool air floated through the room and made Briseis shiver slightly. The sun had not yet dawned and the stars were still in the sky. Achilles thought she was asleep and stared at them, silently praying. He was praying to Isis, the goddess of fertility, praying that one day, not now, but someday Briseis would be pregnant. He wanted to comeback from a war and see his beautiful wife and have children running to greet him with hugs and kisses. He still wanted to fight, that should have been expected but he wanted children with Briseis. Nothing, not even immortality or eternal remembrance would make him happier. Part of his journey was going to end today. He was going to marry Briseis, make her his forever.
Greece was only two hours away and he was set to meet Patroclus at the docks with some of his things to move into his home. He loved Patroclus dearly and he knew the boy would be scarred from his parents death. He was very close to his father, teaching him to fight like Achilles did since he was a child and now, the best was set to teach him. The sun had yet to meet the horizon when he felt two eyes staring at him. He turned to see Briseis sitting up in bed clutching the white sheet to her naked body. She was still sleepy eyed which made his smile. "Do I have to get up?" She asked as she yawned and laid on the bed again.
Achilles nodded his head no and she smiled. She nodded and dozed off in the bed again, he had to admit it was warm but he was always up before dawn. Nothing could be heard from the dock above and it made Achilles slightly suspicious but ignored the pit in his stomach. He heard her toss slightly in the bed, turning her head away from the lightening sky. He was already dressed, in his war attire, what he always wore. He cracked his wrist, and sighed. He looked around the room, the bed in the center with Briseis in the middle, a sheet barely covering her. Of any physical feature she had, her eyes, that were shut were his favorite. Dark chocolate orbs that glowed with laughter and glazed over with sadness. Her fragile body laid at a different angle and picked up her arm that hung lifelessly on the side of the bed.
Achilles sat on the floor, and took a hold of her arm. He kissed her palm and each of her fingers, giving them tender care. She giggled in her sleep as his hot breath tickled her bare arms. He looked at her wrist, tracing the greenish-blue veins and kissed the wrist as well. The was over the horizon and was welcomed with blue eyes staring at it. He looked back to Briseis who still slept and took the sheet that barely covered her and placed it over her, tucking in the sides. It was a tender act, Achilles, the Greatest Warrior ever known, was not known to be tender. He looked back out the window before kissing her roughly. His kiss was so brutal it had woken up Briseis.
He got on top of her and kissed her more, his hand un-tucking the side. "No," Briseis said as she pushed him off her and he fell on the floor. Achilles looked stunned at his actions and couldn't even look at his love. "I have to go," He said as he stood from the floor, not even looking at her and ran out the door. Briseis gulped and picked up the sheet that he had taken with him when he fell onto the floor. She dressed but stayed in the room, scared about his actions. Achilles, on the other hand, wasn't doing better. He sat on the ship's edge, staring out into the ocean, the dolphins following the ship. He knew Briseis would have loved the sight, but, he was sure she hated him.
A girl came by, long legged with blonde hair and rather large breasts came waltzing by, her eyes kept on Achilles. She slithered like a snake and wrapped her arms around him, her eyes meeting his. "I am Shay of Troy. And you," Shay said as she ran her hands over Achilles' armor said, "must be Achilles of Greece. I am originally from Troy but I look for you." Shay said as she leaned in and tried to kiss Achilles but he moved his face to the right, she kissed the air. He removed himself from her arms and looked at the girl.
Briseis was perfection to him, so this girl was not as attractive as her. Some would have thought of her as beautiful but all he saw were flaws. Her legs that were long, she could have given him serious bruises when he picked her up or during the sex act. Her blonde hair, it was too light and blinded him. Her blue eyes, they reminded him of seawater that tasted bad while Briseis' brown ones reminded him of chocolate, a lovely flavor. Shay's hair was perfectly straight, his own hair was straight, he preferred curly. Her breasts, they were too large, while Briseis' ones were a perfect fit. Plus, Shay was almost as tall as him, Achilles was 6'5 (I know this is probably wrong but I find incredibly tall guys extremely sexy) while she was at least 5'9.
Briseis was a lot, a lot shorter than him with the height of 5'1. "Why don't you want me?! You hang with that dog of a girl, she'll probably die a virgin with a face as ugly as that." Shay said as she pointed to Briseis who had been watching. Her eyes were glassy with tears from the insult. She was wringing her hands violently when Achilles retorted back in Briseis' defense. "I'm sorry, but the only dog I see is you. With your blonde hair that blinds people, eyes that look like sea water and you're to fricken tall." Achilles said as he laughed at Shay and walked back to his love and took her hand. He led her back to their room, the sun was not even completely in the north sky yet. It was still early in the morning and he was already hit on.
Her tears came, pouring down her face like a summer rain storm. She adverted her face, hiding it in fear of him calling her an insult. "I don't understand you Achilles," Briseis started as she turned to face him, "you have beautiful women after you and you stay with me. These women are flawless and you stay with me, the ratty haired girl with nothing to offer." She said as she fell onto the bed in another fit of tears. Achilles sighed and sat on the bed next to her. "Define perfection." He said bluntly as he forced her to look at him. She didn't have to think long.
"You." She said as she stared into his sky blue eyes and watched his expression. "What is it for you? Shay, Helena or Helen of Sparta?" Briseis said as she waited to be let down, thinking of any excuse possible. "Perfection in my eyes is you. You are pure perfection." She hadn't been expecting to hear that. "Don't play with me." Briseis said as she sat up from the bed, looking angrily at him. Achilles sat up as well and kissed her sensually. "I would never play with your emotions." Briseis shoved him off her and stood angrily.
"If I am so 'perfect', tell me! What do I have to offer you?!" She asked and Achilles took her in his arms and thrust her into the wall gently.
"See this hair?" He said as he took up a strand and held it up. "This is not ratty, it's curly and lovely. Your eyes, like chocolate, sweet and exquisite. Your height, I like a girl that's shorter than me. It adds to her natural sexiness. Those delicate lips that I love to kiss taste like strawberry all the time. Your body is magnificent, I worship it. You possess delicate, feminine features. The best thing about you is that gorgeous personality. Smart, sophisticated, kind and sweet. So you're not the toughest cookie, you need to be protected, things have happened and I plan to make your life better. But only if you let me. You are perfection in my eyes." Achilles said as he hugged her to him and kissed her hair. Briseis breathed in and let the smell of him, his manly scent, run through her veins. No man has never loved her like he does and no man ever will.
"I want us to get married Briseis and I want it to work. You said yes before and do you still want to?" Achilles asked, his heart in his throat, he heaved in some air, his fate in her hands. If she said no, he would go jump off the boat right now. "Yes," Briseis said quietly as she felt his grip on her become tighter. Achilles picked her up and she wrapped her legs around his waist, he swung her around. Tears filled his eyes slightly but he blinked them away. "Let's get married when we get home!" he said, like a child. Briseis smiled and kissed his neck, she was going to love this man until the end of time. It was still the early morning hours and she sighed in happiness as she watched Achilles make a new seashell necklace.
"I know this is to early but," Achilles started as he finished the necklace, "would you ever want children…with me?" he asked nervously as he stared into her eyes, a playful glee on her face. "Yes, of course. Three little girls!" Briseis said as she watched horror appear on his face. "I would love daughters but only girls! I have to become protective over every person in my family! You and the three girls!" His hand flew to his face and Briseis giggled. He got so nervous over everything. "I already have the names and everything!" She said as she came over to him and sat on his lap. "But," Briseis started, "we have to get the whole sex thing out of your system. When you have kids, sex almost never happens. First it's libido than your plainly to tired." Achilles eyes widen in fear as he stared at her again.
"I'm just kidding, you always make me hot." he sighed and rolled his eyes, they felt a sharp shaking. "We're home love." Achilles said as he scooped up Briseis in his arms and escorted her out the door. The streets were crowded like usual and the marketplace was filled with young newlyweds, who held their husbands' hands. Briseis looked through the crowds with her eyes, only to see a young man with the same looks as Achilles. "Patroclus!" Achilles yelled over to his cousin as he took her hand and held it tight as they walked through crowd. The boy looked up, his lifeless eyes lit up as he saw Achilles. They hugged each other and Achilles introduced them.
"Briseis, this is Patroclus, my cousin and Patroclus, this is Briseis, my soon-to-be wife." Achilles said as he hugged her close to him. Patroclus nodded to her and said pleased to meet you.
"BRISEIS!" A voice yelled from behind and she turned to see Gabrielle running towards them, her blonde hair flailing over her shoulder. "Briseis…SIR!" She said as her eyes opened up wide. She muttered to Briseis, "Why was he hugging you?" Briseis didn't mutter anything back; she noticed the way Patroclus' breath caught as he saw Gabrielle running towards them. Gabrielle followed her eyes and she took in a sharp breath as they met eyes. Patroclus gave his hand to hers in a shake and said, "I'm Patroclus, and you are?" He asked, giving her a look that screamed 'I like you'. Gabrielle took his hand and said, "I'm Gabrielle. Pleased to meet you sir."
Achilles and Briseis' eyes met as they started to walk down the street, he held her hand since neither Patroclus or Gabrielle were paying attention. The people looked at them which made Briseis become uneasy. The house was going crazy with work and Achilles led Patroclus and Gabrielle inside, they were laughing with each other. "It's gonna be love." Briseis said as she watched Gabrielle laugh with glee. A man, an older one, came from out of the crowd, and tapped Achilles' shoulder. He turned and looked at the man, and than sighed. "Yes, um, be in the gardens in 20 minutes." Achilles said as he led Briseis into the house and brought her to their bedroom.
"The workers should be in bed in 10 minutes. Wear this when you come outside." Achilles said as he took out a rack from the closet. He turned around, the dress hanign off it. The dress, the white dress, with diamonds sewn in with sequences. The dress had no sleeves and Briseis covered her mouth in amazement. "It's beautiful!" she said as she took the dress in her hands. "Be in the gardens in 15 minutes." Achilles said as he kissed her deeply. Briseis smiled and when he left, she slipped off all of her clothes and slipped on the dress. It clung to her, just right. She fixed her hair into a bun at the top of her head, some ringlets falling, framing her face. It had been a hard task to get downstairs without anyone noticing, especially Helena who had a bad habit of staying out half the night. The trip was smooth and when she made it outside to the gardens, she gasped.
The gardens were lit with white candles and a small area was made up with Achilles and the priest stood in the middle, he looked incredibly nervous. Achilles looked up and almost choked.
Briseis looked more gorgeous than she ever did before. Her long hair was in a bun, the ringlets, smooth and curly fell and framed her face. The dress clung to her in all the right curves and her creamy skin looked soft and smooth. The priest stood and smiled at Briseis.
"Milady, you look beautiful. May I start the ceremony?" Achilles nodded as he took Briseis' hand in his.
"The gods, I pray. Bless this couple. Two people, in love, have decided to take that ever so sacred oath of marriage. Bless them, Zeus, Isis and Aphrodite. Bless them that this marriage will be beautiful as this night sky. Do you, Achilles of Greece take Briseis of Troy as your wife, to love forever and take care of until the day you die?"
"I do," Achilles said as he looked into her chocolate eyes.
"And do you, Briseis of Troy, take Achilles of Greece, as your husband to love forever and take care of until the day you die?"
"I do," The priest smiled and read on.
"By the power in the gods above and myself, I pronounce you man and wife. Please, Achilles, kiss your lovely bride." Achilles obliged and leaned in, taking her strawberry lips in his and kissed her as a married man. The priest smiled at the couple and left them alone. Briseis took his face in her hands and let his tongue slip into her mouth. This was a time the two will never forget. Achilles now kissed a married woman…
-------
"OH!" Zeus said as he cried into the piece of cloud. "That is so sweet!" He said as he cried into the cloud again. Hades smirked at Thetis and Hera who also cried into clouds at the beautiful sight. "I bless you with fertility!" Isis cried as she stared into the well.
"I bless you with beauty and love for those children!" Aphrodite yelled at the well and Zeus was the last to speak in a blessing.
"I bless you, Achilles, when the war comes, the whole world will remember your name!"

Thanks again everyone! You people are great! Also, in your review, please tell me if you like that sequel synopsis that I posted last chapter.
If you all do (which I hope) I will write it exactly like that and if not, I will rewrite it and post it again probably in the next chapter or Chapter Nineteen.
I also know that Briseis is very out-of-character but when they get to Troy, she will be a much stronger person. I hope you all loved this chapter because I had a blast writing it. I will also look for a picture of the dress in here and post the internet address on here and you all can go see it! The last chapter should be in another 10 chapters or so.
Oh god, this story is going to be soo long! Review people!
Until we meet again,
