Summary:
Jon is nervous and excited about his upcoming wedding
"I can't just stay here." Jon muttered for what seemed like the hundredth time in ten minutes. He was pacing again and the two companions that were in the room with him gave each other identical looks.
"Well you have to." Raoul chided, nodding to Gary for support. "You'll get to see her in twenty minutes."
Both men saw Jon ready to open his mouth but Gary stopped him before he could speak. "And no spilling poetry. You're about to be married. She can hear all your love poetry tonight."
"And the next night, and the next until she's ready to strangle you." Raoul finished, clapping his long time friend on the back.
Jon shot them both a glare before deciding it was useless and collapsed into the seat. "I'm just so nervous. I want this wedding to be over so-"
"You can get on with spending the rest of your life devoted to your wonderful, beautiful wife, yes, yes Jon, we both know." Gary said with a smile on his face.
"That wasn't exactly what I was going to say." Jon said with a pout on his face.
"But she is wonderful, and beautiful." Gary supplied.
"And you do intend to spend the rest of your life with her." Raoul continued where Gary left off. "So what Gary says is merely the truth."
Jon gave a sigh but resided himself to nodding in agreement with the two men. His head turned as the door opened, revealing his best friend to his sight.
"Alanna, please can't I just walk around outside?"
Alanna gave him a narrowed look, blatantly ignoring him as she spoke with Raoul. "Is everything ready?"
"By our accounts, Champion." Raoul shot her a small salute which just earned him a partially nasty look, which he easily ignored. It was obvious that the firey red head was far from being angry today.
"Good. Five minutes." Alanna stepped back outside, and Jon tried in vain to get a look outside before the door was shut, and he was stuck back in the small room. However the idea that he only had fifteen more minutes was enough for him to be less likely to spring out of his seat.
Or more likely, it depended on who you asked.
Gary and Raoul shared a look as they helped Jon give one last look over at his clothing and gave him a pat on his back before they stepped outside, walking out into the large meeting room where he and Thayet were to be married. Jon shook the hands of the head priest and listened intently to the instructions that were being given out.
He was surprised at how quickly things had begun to pass after he had stepped out into the main hall, and before he knew it Thayet was standing in front of him, looking beautiful from behind the simple veil she was wearing. His eyes stayed on her as the priest and various other people spoke.
All too quickly they were pronounced married, and the room practically exploded in cheers as Jon cupped Thayet's cheek, kissing her soundly on the mouth.
Tortall had a new queen, and their king was beyond happy with his new bride.
