chapter 2
Lion-o was studying hard as he could. He was doing really well. His teachers were proud of him. Lion-o and Liosella saw each other often. They were even dating. They have just become a couple.
Manson would sometimes tease Lion-o about it.
But he ignored it. After 4 long years Lion-o was now a doctor.
"I'm proud of you son," Claudius said.
"I'm proud of you too," Leona said.
Lion-o was given a stethoscope for a graduation present.
"Mom dad the is my girlfriend Liosella she is a pediatrician," Lion-o said.
"She sure is beautiful son," Claudius said.
"Yes she's perfect for my boy," Leona said.
Liosella's parents came up. "We spoke with Lion-o over video chat and he's perfect for my little girl," said Lenoch. (Liosella's father.)
"Liosella there is something I've been wanting to do, but been to afraid to until now," Lion-o said. He got down on one knee. "Liosella will you marry me?" he asked.
"Yes!" Liosella said hugging him.
"Congratulations you two," Tanali said. (Liosella's mother.)
"We will help pay for the wedding," Claudius said.
"Both of us will," Lenoch said.
The wedding planning had begun.
They set a date for the wedding. It was going to be in October. "Okay October 6th, our wedding date," Lion-o said.
They started to plan. "Okay how about a vanilla cake with raspberry filling and white frosting?" Lion-o asked.
"Sounds good," Liosella said. "How about chicken?" she said.
"Good, but we need more than just chicken, how about some nice brisket too my mom's brisket is the best," Lion-o said.
"Okay then my mom's chicken and your mom's brisket," Liosella said.
"Okay then now we must choose the color of the venue," Lion-o said.
"How about red and yellow because it's an autumn wedding?' Liosella said.
"Great," Lion-o said. "Okay now, will our waiters wear gloves?" he asked.
"No," Liosella said.
"Okay, then," Lion-o said.
"I chose Pumyra to be my maid of honor," Liosella said.
"I chose Manson to be my best man," Lion-o said.
"Okay then, we have one more thing to do, I need a dress and you need a tux," Liosella said.
Lion-o and Liosella went to go get their wedding clothes.
Liosella chose a dress that was beautiful it had a jewels encrusted around the middle. "You look beautiful Liosella," Lenoch said.
"Thanks dad," Liosella said.
Lion-o chose a nice tuxedo. "There good fit," he said.
The big day was approaching fast. It was tomorrow and Lion-o got up bright and early. He headed off to where the wedding was being held. His groomsmen helped him get ready. "There, we go, you are a handsome groom Lion-o," Manson said.
"Thanks Manson," Lion-o said.
Liosella was ready now too. "You are beautiful bride." Pumyra said.
"Thank you," Liosella said.
Lion-o was waiting at the altar all nervous. He took a deep breath and relaxed.
Liosella's father was walking her down the aisle and gave her to Lion-o.
"Friends we are gathered here today to join this couple in holy matrimony," the preacher said. "Lion-o do you take Liosella to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, for better or for worse, for as long as you both shall live?" He asked.
"I do," Lion-o said.
"Liosella do you take Lion-o as your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, for better or for worse, for as long as you both shall live?" the preacher asked.
"I do," Liosella said.
Lion-o placed the ring on Liosella's finger and she place the other ring on Lion-o's finger.
"I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride," the preacher said.
Lion-o and Liosella kissed.
It was a big celebration. Soon it was time to go home. Lion-o and Liosella were off on their honeymoon.
It was a nice warm place. Lion-o kissed her and she leaned her head against him. It was wonderful.
