Chapter 4: Miaka and Taka's Wedding

So the week went by. The Suzaku group and the scout group spent a lot of time together. The all got along really well. Bunny and Darien read The Universe of the Four Gods every night before they went to bed. They got to the part were Tamahome goes to Kuto and leaves Miaka the note.

Finally, the day of Miaka's wedding arrives. It was a small wedding, just family and friends (including all the scouts). Yui was Miaka's maid of honor and Nuriko was Taka's best man. They had an outdoor reception.

Bunny runs up to Miaka, "You are absolutely glowing."

Miaka giggles, "Thank you. I can't believe we're finally married."

"I know exactly how you feel," Bunny smiles.

Taka and Darien walk up to them. Darien turns to Taka, "So were are you to going to be living?"

Miaka starts to laugh. "Actually, we found an apartment," Taka responds.

"What's so funny Miaka?" Bunny insists.

Miaka tries to stop laughing to answer, "It's… your old… apartment."

This makes Bunny start laughing to, "Well… it is… a really nice… place."

Darien and Taka just give each other these looks like 'do these two do anything but laugh?'

When it came time for the dancing Michelle and Amara start playing some beautiful music on the violin and piano. After a few songs Bunny goes up to them and whispers to them. They nod and Bunny makes an announcement, "Hello everyone. In case you don't know me, I'm Miaka's new friend Bunny. (Now normal reaction of shock that Princess Serenity is there.) I can tell that you all know my 'secret identity' of Princess Serenity. Anyhow, I would like to play one of my songs in honor of my new friends… 'My Only Love'." With that Bunny, Michelle and Amara all start the song. Miaka and Taka are surprised for a moment, they haven't herd Bunny play in public before, and then start to dance. One by one all the other couples start to dance. Surprisingly, Keiske asks Trista to dance, and she excepts.

After the song is over Bunny joins Darien, Miaka and Taka. "Thank you for playing that song for us," Miaka thanked, "It was lovely."

"Oh, it's no big deal," Bunny responded, blushing. "I enjoy playing my old song for my friends." That's when Bunny notices that Trista is dancing with someone. "Hey Darien, have you ever seen Trista dance before?"

Darien thinks about it, "Now that you mention it, I don't think so."

Miaka and Taka look over now, "Hey, she's dancing with Keisuke! I can't believe it." Miaka and Bunny are in stunned silence. Miaka recovers first, "Hey it's only a dance, right? It probably doesn't mean anything." The others nod agreement. However, for the rest of the reception where you saw Trista, Keisuke would be near by.

Soon, it was over and everyone was heading home. But first Bunny runs to talk to Trista. "Hey Trista."

"Hi Bunny," Trista replies.

"Have fun dancing today?" Bunny grinned.

Trista blushed, "Well, yeah. It was fun." Bunny was positively thrilled that Trista had found somebody, a boy somebody, to hang with. But she didn't want to pry so she just waved and left.

Meanwhile, Miaka had confronted her brother in a similar manner.

"Okay, so I liked dancing with her. Is that a crime?" Keisuke demanded.

Miaka laughed, "Not at all big brother. I'm happy for you." And before Keisuke could respond Miaka had skipped back over to Taka's side.

Bunny and Darien walked part of the way home with Miaka and Taka. For once the girls weren't laughing. In fact they were all enjoying some friendly silence. When they reached the corner were they had to split up Bunny and Miaka sighed happily. "See ya soon," Miaka said.

"Yeah, give me a call," Bunny answered. They waved and went their separate ways.

Miaka and Taka entered their new apartment and smiled. ":happy sigh: We finally have a place of our own," Miaka comments.

"Um-hum," Taka agrees, "Finally." And with that they went to bed.

When Bunny and Darien got home Darien adimaticaly reached for The Universe of the Four Gods. "So you want to read some more of this?" he asked.

"Um, yeah, but I got something I want to do first," Bunny responded. Darien was surprised and watched as Bunny got a pen, paper and an envelope. She sat down at the table and started writing.

'Dear Rini,

Hi sweety. :) How are things in the 30th century? Everything if fine here. Remember our new friends Miaka and Taka? Well their wedding was today. And guess what? We saw Trista dancing with Miaka's brother Keisuke! We were very surprised but also very happy. Anyway, hope your doing well. Give our best to everyone, and come visit whenever you want.

Love,

Bunny'

When she was done she let Darien read the note. Then she put it in the envelope and put "Rini" on it in big letters. Bunny then put the letter on Rini's bed. She knew that Luna-P would come and get it by morning. After she was all finished she joined Darien with the book. "I just thought I'd tell Rini about Trista. You know how close those two are."

With that, Darien started to read. Wanting to know what happens they didn't put the book down until Miaka and friends had meet the flute playing Chiriko. As Darien put the book down he said, "I didn't know that Chiriko played the flute."

Bunny shook her head, "Neither did I. And the way he's described doesn't sound much like the Chiriko that I know. Oh well, I'm sure it will all make since in the end. Good night."

Bunny kissed Darien and went to sleep. Darien put the book down and turned off the light. He kissed Bunny's forehead, "Good night Buns."
