chapter 4

Lion-o and Liosella had been in college for almost 5 years. They were soon going to graduate. "Hey Lion-o I can hardly believe we are going to graduate in two months." Bengali said.

"Neither can I and I can't wait to go on my date with Liosella," Lion-o said.

"I can't believe you two have been dating for almost five years." Bengali said.

"That's how long you and Pumyra been dating I can't believe you two are getting married." Lion-o said.

"Well believe it," Bengali said. "We are getting married in August," he said. "Remember you're my best man," he said.

"I know," Lion-o said.

"So have you asked Liosella the question yet?" Bengali asked.

"No not yet," Lion-o said. "I going to soon," he said.

Lion-o and Liosella went on their date. "Hey Liosella I love you, and I want to be with you," Lion-o said. He got down on one knee and showed her the ring. "Will you marry me?' he asked.

"Yes!" Liosella said hugging him.

Lion-o placed the ring on her finger.

After the graduation Lion-o and Liosella told their parents the good news. "We're getting married," Lion-o and Liosella said.

"How wonderful," Claudius said.

"Wow!" Leona said.

"This is perfect," Tanali said.

"Congratulations," Lenoch said.

"We will help pay for the wedding," Claudius said.

"We all will," Lenoch said.

"Thanks," Lion-o said.

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 Bengali 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," Bengali said.

"Thanks Bengali," 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 bother 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 bother 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.
