~~~ The Day of the Wedding ~~~
Oh my goodness, oh my goodness.I am so nervous! Wait, Rin did say we got the cake today right? I better go check, wait.no we did, I saw it arrive, oh my, I have to calm down.
My thoughts had been doing this for quite some time while pacing rather dangerously close to the roof edge.
What if I forget my vows? Oh no, I can't do this.I have to do this though, I can't let Kohaku down. But what if my dress rip? Or I fall, oh no, then everyone will know for sure what a clutz I am! Oh dear! The Invitations! They weren't sent out! Wait, yes they were I gave them to Nushi myself. I remember, he was grumbling about it not being a 'warriors proper work', oh dear.well at least we got the attic all restored and everything. Oh my.what about the decorations? What if some one sabatoges them! No! That would be horrible.but wait they can't. Granny herself put up a strong spell to keep any and all decorations in place.Oh but.
"Chihiro!" Spinning around and stepping back, I found that there was no more edge left to step onto.
"Eeep!" I screamed. I felt my arm jerk when a hand grabbed my wrist tightly. I looked up at Kohaku, and he pulled me up.
"Don't you know not to walk that close to the edge!" He said sternly I looked down at the ground, tugging at my clothes. The same habit I possessd when I was a small girl. I guess I never quite grew out of it.
"Huh?" I said out loud as Kohaku wrapped me in a strong embrace, filled with released tension.
"Don't scare me like that." He said. I relaxed into his embrace and hugged him back, my surprise slightly gone. It seems, only to me would he ever admit he is scared. Even towards Arelinita, he doesn't show he's afraid, even when some of their childish bickering gets to a heating point. They fight just like siblings, and over the most stupid stuff, like that pencile that Arelinita lost and blamed on Kohaku, or when Kohaku began arguing with her about how crazy she really is. I let out a giggle.
"What's so funny?"
"Oh nothing, I was just thinking." I said smiling. We got closer to the middle of the edge, and we sat down together, me wrapped in his arms. Though as hard as I try, I still can't completely relax.
"You shouldn't be so nervous. Tomorrow will come soon enough, and then it will be over with." Kohaku said soothingly.
"I know, but I still feel nervous. I mean, what if something goes wrong like." Just then Kohaku tipped me back and I felt our mouths melt into each others. Feeling my muscles go completely relaxed, Kohaku slowly pulled away and sat me back up against his chest where I was moments before.
"Better?"
"Yah." I said smiling. We stayed like that for most of the day before going inside to sleep, the sun gracing us with her soft bright rays of light, and the green grass swishing in the breeze. Little birds sounded here and there, but other than that, all else was calm.
~~~Dusk Hours~~~
"Chihiro! Chihiro! Wake up!" Arelinita cried. I sat up groggily, before getting splashed with cold water.
"Rin! What did you do that for?"
"At the rate you're getting up, the wedding wouldn't take place for another week!" She said, running through my room. I looked around. This is my last time staying here. It's kind of sad, but I have a new life I can live, a new adventure to start, one with Kohaku, and thankfully less dangerous.
I was pulled out of the bed, as two worker women; who work as maids; pulled me out and began to undress me quickly.
"I can undress myself." I said.
"No time!" cried Rin. Soon, she became impatient with the women and soon began undressing me too. Then wrapping me in a towel, her, and the three maids pushed me out the door and down the hallways.
"What are you doing?" I squeeled. Going down the halls with nothing but a towel on, and my hair in a ponytail, is not my idea of decent fun.
"You are going to get washed in one of the private bathrooms I set up for you. Call it a 'guests treatment'" She said before pushing me into a door way, which led to an enclosed room with two rather large tubs, on looked like one of the hot tubs here the other looked like a large bathtub, both set into the floor. The room is pink, with Sukura petals decorated all over them. Then the one wall was lined with towels. Next to the tubs, were shampoo's, conditioners, perfumes, bubble baths, and nearly anything else you could dream of having in a girls all out luxery tub room.
"You may leave, and tend to the others." She said bowing hastily. The two women bowed as well. Then Rin closed the door.
"But Rin, I don't need all of this stuff. A regular bath would have been fine." I said as she pushed me towards the regular tub.
"Nonsense, you're getting married. You deserve every bit of it." She said smiling. She whipped off my towel and pushed me in.
"RIN!" I said after sputtering water when coming to the surface.
"Well, you looked like you were going to stand there for a while, so I helped you along. She said smiling evily. Then she grabbed me by the hair.
"He wait! What are you doing?" I cried. It hurt, even though I can tell she is trying to be gentle.
"I'm taking your hair band out." She said. I began to struggle.
"But Rin..."
"No but's about it, you're getting a new hair style tonight, don't worry, you'll still wear your hair band still." She said reassuringly. After a few pulled hairs, and a hairband less, Rin then began to vigerously wash my hair.
"Out." She said as I rinsed my hair. I wrapped my hair in a towel. I did as she said and she pointed to the tub where steam was rising. I nodded and dipped my toe in.
"Ouch! Arelinita, it's hot!" I said stepping back, and nearly falling on the wet floor. She sighed.
"I'm going to go check on the four Maids of honor next door. By the time you had better be in there." She said and left when I nodded. Hesitating for a few moments more, I soon slid into the light juniper perfumed, silky warm water. Instantly I felt my muscles relax.
"Though not as good as the kiss." I said. I layed back against the wall and relaxed. Soon Arelinita came back.
She poured some new water in the first tub, took off her Kimono and she too slid into that one, cleaning herself off, then slid into the hot tub as well, on the opposite form me. I could see some of her tension leave.
"Rin?"
"Hmm?"
"Thanks." I said. She opened her eyes to look at me.
"For what?"
"For everything. I mean, you've done so much." I leaned back closing my eyes and going into more detail of all the wonderful things she's done for me.
"You gave us our own place to live, Both of us work here, you got me up and ready even before yourself, and you did a lot of the planning of the wedding, and even before all of this. When you tried to protect me, and even before that, when I first came here. You didn't avoid me like the other workers at first, and yeah, you were harsh, but you were kind too, and taught me everything I needed to survive. So I guess, I just wanted to say, thanks.for being a greater friends than I could ever had hoped for." I opened my eyes, as small happy tears slid down. Looking up at Arelinita, I could see tears welling in her eyes.
"I didn't offend you did I?" I cried out in panick. Oh no, what did I say that would make her cry? I thought I was thanking her, but what if I hurt her feelings by accident.
"No. It's just that.that's the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me.and Chihiro.you're the best friend I could ever hope to have as well." She said. I smiled. She sniffled, and wiped away a few tears.
"Mistress Arelinita, Miss Chihiro, It's time to get your make up done." Came a cheery voice from the other side of the door. We looked at each other than down at our wrinkly hands. I guess we stayed in here longer than we had intended. We met each others eyes and giggled before getting out.
Touching the material of my dress, it makes me think of soft rose petals. It's quite lovely. It's funny I never got to see it before. Granny measured me a week ago and that was that, but this is beautiful. I hadn't expected her to make me something as wonderful as this. Gazing into the mirror, I looked in awe at myself. I'm.actually.beautiful. It's hardly believable, that that woman standing before me is my very own reflection. That women with lightly pink tinted cheeks, dark forest brown eyes, waist length, thick, silky brown hair, with hair framing her face and sweeping across her shoulders, with one single thin braid that was tied at the end with a glittering purple hair tie, and only held a hint of make up. Her face determined, gleeful, nervous, and thoughtful, all in one. Her slim curvy figure adorned by a rose petal soft, light, stormy purple colored dress that had long sleeves that loosened more and more as it went farther down her arm, and the bottom leaving enough room for her to walk, or dance, or skip comfortably without tripping, and held an open neck for the most part, showing no cleavage, which is good, and had an open back. This woman.could it possibly.just maybe.could it really be me? Am I really her? And she me? I smiled.
"Chihiro, It's time." Said and enthoused Arelinita. Her dark brown hair was free from it's bonds and flowed in a cascade. Her eyes pirecing, stern and mischievious. She too wore make up, more around the eyes, which could captivate anyone. Her figure was graced by a dress that was made from the same soft material as mine, and was a soft yellow, like buttercups. All of the other Maids of Honor also wore dresses similar. I looked over at them. Narua, Gina, Enreesia, and Yukiko. All of them either with their hair down, or pulled back with a ponytail at the nape of their neck. All of them shining too.
"Chihiro!"
"Come on."
"Before you're late." Cried the twins Irah and Riah, bounding with energy, nearly tipping over their rice, and flower baskets. It was decided, that Riah would hand out the rice to be thrown, while Irah was going to be the flower girl, and they both gladly accepted.
"Okay, I'm ready. Lets go. I said, and we made our way through the back ways we had prepared, so we wouldn't get stuck in the crowd. We soon arrived outside in the fields, where there were thousands tabels graced with every delicacy known, and musician Spirits, that travels many lands, earning their pay with their beautiful playing, with a variety of hand mad and carved instruments. But what caught my attention, was the prize that awaited me, at the front of the crowd, standing next to an angel like Spirit as our priest. The one dressed in a loose white shirt trimmed in green, and loose whit e pants that had elastic around the ankles to tighten it, and a green sash on. His dark green hair shaping his face like always, his emerald eyes on me, making me blush. His face showing calm tranquility, but in truth, the littlest details tell me he is nervous as well. The robust music that had been playing moments ago had slowly quieted, and was soon replaced with soft flutes, and string like instruments, playing a soft, and nearly entrancing song, but a happy one non the less.
Irah began to dance through the aisle the crowd had formed. Her toes barely touching the ground, and spread petals of some of the most brightest colored flower petals, and sweetest smelling. I smiled at her. I hope someday, I'll have a child of my own, who is just as sweet and rambunctios. The ten Spirits of honor, five of mine, and five of Kohaku's, danced lightly too, as was custom through the aisle of spirits as soon as Irah was done. The dance they were doing was called "The circle of many, the Circle of one." I smiled, and soon it was my turn to dance. The dance to be performed by me, and Kohaku is called "Two no longer, but One in the Same" My part, I had been practicing for days on end until it was perfect. I'm only to perform one part of the dance right now. I stepped to the side, twirled, made a sweeping bow like gesture, and rose my hands to the air. Beginning to feel nervous again, I wobbled as I stood on my very tip toes, but breathing in, then out, taking one more breath, I continued with my dancing, and soon, I began to forget the crowd around me, and remember to whom I was dancing for, finally the steps fully came to me, and so naturally, it's like breathing. I made many other fluid movements, all to the rythem of the music, and stopped when my part was ended, in a still, statuete like pose, that is supposed to speak of respect, love, and welcome, but also of warning, to not break my heart. Now it's Kohaku's turn. Watching his movements, I become hyptnotized. I know I can't look away even if I wanted to. If my movements were anywhere near graceful, his far surpassed mine. His dance though was different than mine. We both had our own dances to do. While mine was made of more fluid motions, his was precise. Almost like watching a warrior with his sword in full concentration as he practiced. All too soon, he stopped, and posed in a gesture similar to mine. The angel like priest began to sing what was to be expected, the promise agreement we were to make. Soon we moved and dance in circles around each other, our bodies never touching, but coming close at times. It is a rapid wild dance, reminding me slightly of a mix of an Irish jig, and ballet. Soon, our voices, his and mine could be heard as we began our vows, while dancing. My soft strong soprano voice harmonizing perfectly with his sweet tenor. Now, after the first three lines of our sung vows, we were allowed to touch when we danced. We touched palm in palm, circling, until the winged priest was done singing, pronouncing our vows to be pure, and intertwined into each other, our voices mingle together in harmony, as we sing the final parts of the song, the parts proclaiming our love to be true, smiles on our faces. We stopped. Our faces a mear inches from his face a mear inch from mine. His breth warming my face.
"I love you." I whispered.
"I love you too." He replied, in an equally soft voice. He bent down lower, our lips meeting in sheer bliss. My arms wrapped around his neck, his around my waist, and we kissed a deep passionate kiss. Our first kiss, as husband and wife. We pulled away, slightly blushing at all of the attention we're getting from the Spirits. All of them whistling, yelping, and howling. We smiled at each other.
"Well? What are we waiting for? Let the Celebration begin!" Cried Arelinita. Soon, a familiar song began to play. Only, unlike many other times, this was on in the instruments. Until many womens voices joined in, including mine as we danced.
In A city deep, where the drink is cheep
There is a Tavern called
The Drunkards Inn. .Called out the Soprano's, Kohaku looking at me with amusment, and delight at my merriment.
The Drunkards Inn.Echoed all of the alto singers soon everyone every one else caught on and began singing, dancing, laughing and being themselves. Everyone is happy. Looking at Kohaku, I know he is completely happy too. And reaching deep within my heart, I know that that's how it's always going to be.

Oh, the reason for such an odd wedding was..well I was going to type up a normal regular American wedding, you know with the white dress, the church, ect. but I figure that's boring, and not reasonable for this story, then I was thinking of typing a Japanese wedding, but I'm thinking, but I don't want to do that, so, I just came up with my own wedding ceremony. Hows that? Tell me what you think!
