There was no cake at the wedding.
Everyone had gone to a large ballroom like area that was adjoined to the church. Ju San had apologized multiple times to Eto bout Hitomi's mishap, and now stood with some of the other female servants. Many of the girl servants had grouped together, and Ju San talked to Ju Nana.
"Are you ever gonna get married?" Ju San asked the older servant.
"Servants can't get married," Ju Nana said, frowning. "You know this."
"Well, you know what I meant. Get together with someone. Have kids?"
The black haired ghoul bit her lip. "Maybe. I don't know."
"You're awfully close with Ni, aren't you?"
A blush spread over Ju Nana's face, breaking her usually stoic charisma. "Whatever."
"Oh, you guys sleeping together?" Ju San asked, giggling and wiggling her eyebrows.
"Shut up," Ju Nana said, lavender eyes flickering to Ni.
The ghoul had been one of the groomsmen, and he wore the tux that all the others had. His black hair was nicely combed, but his brown eyes still looked tired.
"I won't tell anyone," the doe eyed servant giggled. "You guys should have kids. It would be cute."
"Honestly Ju San, you need to mature some. You haven't changed since you were seventeen."
Ju San cocked her head. "How so?"
"Well for one," Ju Nana said, frowning. "You make irrational suggestions. Second, you still wanna get in The Master's pants."
Ju San's face burned with embarrassment. "T—that's not true."
Ju Nana gave her friend a disbelieving look. "Honestly, you gotta find someone else."
"I don't want anybody else."
"So you do want him?"
"I didn't mean it like that!"
"Sure."
Ju San rolled her eyes and glanced at her master. He was standing next to several male servants. His arms were crossed and he was staring skeptically down at Hitomi, who was clinging to his leg.
Another servant tapped Ju Nana's shoulder. "Eto's about to throw the bouquet!"
"It's not like we can get married," Ju Nana said harshly, and the other servant rolled her eyes and turned away.
"Well don't pester me about my feelings while you're hitting it up with Ni," Ju San said.
"That's different," Ju Nana said. "Ni is another servant. Naki is our Master."
"Used to be a servant," Ju San reminded her friend.
Ju Nana sighed. "I just knew this was gonna happen. When you were younger it was all cutesy with you being best friends and all, but I just knew this was gonna come of it. I knew when you were older you would start thinking differently of him. And let me tell you, it's never going to work! Honestly, I wish the heavens would open up and give you a sign wether you should let it go or not."
"I t—."
Ju San was cut off by a something hitting her in the side of the head. She blinked in surprise; it had shocked her but not hurt her. A roar of laughter erupted from the crowd. She looked around at everyone; they were all laughing. All except Naki. He was beaming at her.
She looked down to see what had hit her. A lump formed in her throat. The bouquet laid at her feet.
"Pick it up!" Shichi, a female servant called out. "It hit you, Ju San! It's yours."
The doe eyed servant slowly picked up the flowers and stared at them with wide eyes.
"Awwwww!" another servant called out. "Ju San's gonna find a man!"
The crowd broke into conversation, and Ju San turned her eyes from the flowers back to Ju Nana. An impish grin spread across the doe eyed servant's face.
"So, Ju Nana, what were you saying about a 'sign'?"
"I am so fucking done with this bullshit, Ju San."
