Hi guys! I'm sorry I haven't updated in awhile. Your support means so much to me, and I feel honored that you take time out of your day to read and comment on my story. And thank you for not giving me any flames. I'm a very sensitive person, and some people can be so mean. I hope you'll like this chapter. Tee Hee

Ch.15: A blessed union

Tohru stared at her engagement ring, watching as it sparkled. She felt Kyo take her hand, rubbing his fingers across hers. She smiled at him and nestled her head against his shoulder as their taxi drove on to some unknown destination that her fiance had yet to disclose to her.

"Are we going back to Kyoumi-san's house?" she asked.

"No, actually. I have one more suprise for you," he said to her with a smile. His nose nuzzled her cheek as he added, "And I know you'll love it." He could barely contain his excitement and nervousness as they neared the place that would change their lives forever..........

Hatori looked out the window of his plane, sorrow evident in his demeanor. The dread of what he had to do weighed heavily on his chest.

He recalled that when he went to retrieve Kyo before he left for the airport, curiously he nor Shizuma were there. Actually, he was relieved that his cousin was not there

His hands twitched slightly, wishing he could smoke a cigarette. He tried to smoke one in the bathroom, but a flight attendant smelled it. He remembred in embarrassment that she rapped on the door, and when he opened it, she tapped irritably on a sign that clearly said: " No Smoking".

As a doctor he knew it was a bad habit, but they helped when he was stressed or irritated. And right now he was very stressed.

He recalled earlier that when he went by Kazuma's, Kyo nor Kazuma was there. That relieved him a little. He didn't want Kyo to witness what he was to do to Tohru.

He leaned his head back with a sigh and closed his eyes in hopes of getting to sleep, though he knew it to be fruitless............

Tohru held onto Kyo's hand tightly, walking carefully as he led her blindfolded to their secret destination.

"Are we almost there yet?" she asked.

"Almost.......Okay, we're here." He reached into his pocket and pulled out a key. Then she heard him open a door, and he gently led her inside.

"Now don't take off your blindfold till I leave okay?" he said. He turned to leave, but stopped when she blindly reached out and grabbed his jacket.

"Wait, why are you leaving?" she asked confused. He patted her hand and told her not to worry; that she would understand once she entered the room. She nodded her head, and once she heard the door close, she slowly removed the blindfold an gasped.

Before her on a mannequin was a beautiful dress.

A wedding dress.

Tohru walked slowly towards it, her fingers brushing lightly over the silky material.

It was a cream-colored halter dress with cream-colored pearls in a cross-stitch pattern on the bodice. There were a pair of matching pearl/diamond earrings, pearl/diamond necklace, and matching heels resting next to it on the floor. The same pearls were also on two circular sterling silver hair combs with a thin veil attached to them.

Tears came to her eyes as she realized all this, the dress and everything else were hers. This was the dress she was to wear when she promised herself to Kyo as his wife.

Even though she had already cried so much today, she couldn't help but cry again about the endearing gifts she just received from her future husband.

Feeling overwhelmed, she sat at the vanity and noticed a white paper.

Picking it up she realized it was a wedding invitation, and it read:

You are cordially invited to the wedding of Kyo Sohma and Tohru Honda. It will be held at 6:00pm tonight, where the groom will wait patiently for his bride in the main meeting hall. He hopes to see her there if she will marry him tonight.

Love, Kyo

Alright folks. I split this chapter into two parts. The next part/chapter is the wedding. Hopefully I'll have it out soon.
