UPDATE! (3/28/13) I changed the wedding singer from Lady Gaga to Ellie Goulding. I realized that Ellie was a much better choice, considering that she sung at Prince William and Kate's wedding reception and is a more serious artist.
"A shot was fired during the protests and reportedly almost hit Lillian Golden. Luckily, she was moved out of the way right before the bullet could hit her." A reporter said.
Lily was watching TV in Liz and Hellboy's room with Liz, who was absentmindedly rubbing her stomach.
"How do they know this?" Lily asked, perplexed.
"Who knows? Could be the driver. Could be someone who was in the mob. The news channels always find out." Liz said.
"And this one reporter, Annie Jelson, always has the story on this wedding. It's getting kind of annoying." Lily said, pointing to the reporter on the television, a woman with red hair and green eyes.
"Yeah. Someone always stays on top of a big story." Liz said.
"I just hope they stop. I don't want them reporting on me and Nuada's sex life." Lily said.
"Yeah right. Like he'll ever want his nice pure royal parts near a filthy human's parts." Liz snorted.
"I hope we have sex. I've been a little on edge since I broke it off with Rocco. I'm not used to no sex for this long." Lily told her.
"Well you better get used to it for eternity, because that's what's going to happen." Liz said.
Lily groaned and put her face into a nearby pillow.

"Brother, you must look over these details for the wedding. To make sure that you approve of what Lillian has decided." Nuala said, handing Nuada several pieces of paper as he was walking to the training rooms of the BPRD.
Nuada took the papers from his twin and scanned them quickly. The farther down the paper his eyes went, the slower he started to read and the more anger spread across his face.
"That filthy, greedy human! What is this . . . this nonsense?" He said. He gritted his teeth and clenched the papers. "Where is she?" He asked Nuala through his teeth.

"What is a 'Goulding'?" Nuada asked Lily, thrusting the offending paper in her face.
"SHE is a singer. She has an amazing voice and even sung at Will and Kate's wedding reception! I was going to ask P!nk, but she recently had a baby and I doubt she would accept." Lily said, going off into a tangent.
"No!" Nuada told her and started to walk out of the door of Hellboy's room.
"No? No? I am having Ellie Goulding at my wedding! She is a nice person! She will sing for us and then congratulate us for our marriage!" Lily said, standing on top of Liz and Hellboy's bed, where she was previously sitting.
"No!" Nuada said again, stopping on his journey to the door.
"You gave me free range! This is happening!"
"Not at the wedding of the King of Bethmoora!"
"It's my wedding too! And I get what I want!" Lily shouted at him.
"Greedy human. Just like the rest of them." Nuada sneered. Hellboy put a hand on his shoulder.
"Hey. Let her have the Goulding." Hellboy told him.
"Ellie Goulding!" Lily corrected.
"Why should I?" Nuada retorted.
"I'll explain later, just do it." Hellboy said into his ear.
"Very well. You may have your singer, human." After Nuada said this, Lily jumped up and down with joy.
"Don't break my bed!" Hellboy said.
"Sorry." Lily sat back down onto the bed.
Hellboy led Nuada outside of his room and shut the door.
"Listen, you can't say 'no' to a girl about her wedding, it's not right. They'll freak out and pout. There's a show about how crazy they get and everything." Hellboy explained to him.
"Very well. She can get away with the things she wants, they fulfill the conditions I asked." Nuada said. Then he resumed his walk to the training rooms.

In the weeks that followed, Nuada trained Lily in the art of defending herself against a more skilled opponent aka hitting her multiple times with his staff while she tried to defend herself. Nuada and Meldiron finished with the construction of Bethmoora and the fae area around it. Lily, Liz, and Nuala all put the final touches on the wedding. The dresses were ready. The guests had RSVPed. The correct security measures were taken so that no one would end up dead. All that was left now was the actual wedding itself.
Wedding is next chapter. I didn't want to bore you with all of the details of planning it. Even I have butterflies about this wedding just from writing about it! The next chapter won't be up for a while(it's going to be looong) so please be patient with me. It's from right before the ceremony until the wedding night, so that's why it's so long.
