Chapter 15: Pictures and the Reception
The wedding went by extremely fast. It was like a blur or something. We all were outside of the church and I was with okaa-san.
"Congratulations, okaa-san and Masao," I told them both as I took a turn on hugging them both.
"Thank you, Setsuna," Masao said with a smile.
"Thanks sweetie."
"Suna-chan!" I heard a voice shout out my name. I looked towards my right and I saw the Host Club a.k.a. my friends.
"Hey Hunny!" I said as I bent down a little to give him a hug.
"You look really beautiful," He told me as he released the hug.
"Thank you and you look handsome in your little tuxedo," I smiled. By now, everyone else appeared. I looked at okaa-san and Masao and said with a smile, "Okaa-san, Masao, these are my friends. This is Haninozuka Mitsukuni," I pointed at Hunny.
"Hi and congratulations," He smiled while his pink flowers appeared.
"Nice meeting you and thank you very much," Okaa-san said. I bet she thought he was really adorable.
'So the flowers always appear,' I thought before continuing. "This is Hitachiin Hikaru and Kaoru." I gestured towards the twins.
"Hello and congratulations," They both said simultaneously.
"Thank you," Masao said this time.
I pointed towards Tamaki and Kyoya and said, "This is Suoh Tamaki and Ootori Kyoya."
"Pleasure meeting you and congratulations," Tamaki said.
"Nice meeting you and congratulations," Kyoya said.
"Nice meeting you as well and thank you," okaa-san said.
"This is Morinozuka Takashi," I pointed at Mori.
"Hello and congratulations," he said in his oh-so hot voice.
"Thank you and nice meeting you," okaa-san said.
I then grabbed Haruhi, wrapping my arm around her shoulder, and said, "And this is my best friend, Fujioka Haruhi."
"Hi and congratulations," She said with a smile.
"Thank you dear and nice meeting you," okaa-san said.
"Well, I'll be with my friends. Call me when we have to go take pictures," I said to her.
"I will."
With that, we walked away from okaa-san. We were standing below the steps of the church when suddenly...
"Setsuna, my darling daughter, you look beautiful," Tamaki said as he pulled me into a hug. And surprisingly, it wasn't those killing hugs.
"Thanks," I said with a small laugh.
"He is right. Setsuna-senpai, we should dress you up more so we can increase our profits. Hmm I wonder," Kyoya said as he looked at his PDA; Most likely calculating something.
"Um, thanks?" I sweat dropped.
"Wow the people who did your make-up and hair did an amazing job. Right, Kaoru?" Hikaru said as he hugged me.
"Right," Kaoru said as he pulled me into a hug next.
"Suna-chan, you look extremely beautiful," Haruhi said as she hugged me next.
I laughed and said, "I'm not the only one looking beautiful. Look at you, Haruhi. You look amazing."
She blushed a little and said thanks. She then handed me my purse, which I thanked her for taking care of it. When I pulled out my cell phone to look at the time, Hunny suddenly jumped on me, causing me to lose my footing, but luckily for me, Mori was able to catch me. I'm beginning to think that Hunny was doing this on purpose. Or that he just liked being carried by me.
"Mitsukuni, be careful," He told him and he held my waist.
"Sorry but I wanted to hug Suna-chan. She is pretty!" He snuggled into my neck.
"Thank you, Hunny."
Then I felt someone's breathe next to my ear. "You do look beautiful, Setsuna," Mori whispered to me.
"Thank you," I replied with a blush.
"Hey Setsuna!" I heard my name being called. Walking down the stairs was Kazumi. She approached us and said, "We're about to leave to take the pictures."
"Oh okay," I lowered Hunny to the ground.
"Oh, I'm Kazumi. Setsuna's older sister." Everyone introduced themselves to her and I said,
"'Kay lets go. I'll see you guys at the reception." I waved to them and walked up the stairs. I met up with everyone, meaning okaa-san, Masao, and everyone else who were part of the wedding, and got into the limo. I didn't even know that we had gotten one. Hmm, must have not been paying attention when they mention this.
We drove to our destination. I fell in love with the place. There were all these cherry blossoms and, man, I didn't know how to describe it. It was just beautiful. There was a little bridge that was on top of a small stream. Past that there was a small waterfall. If I had my sketch book, even a napkin, I would draw out the scenery.
We got out of the limo and walked towards where we were going to take pictures. Our photographer, who was a guy, told us to walk towards one of the cherry blossom tress, and that we did. His assistant, who was a girl, handed him a camera. Then he began his work.
One of the first photos that we took was a group photo. My sisters, Megumi and I were standing next to okaa-san, while all the guys were standing next to Masao. We took about five pictures with the same pose. Then it was by pairs, meaning that it would be okaa-san and Masao, Megumi and her boyfriend, Fuka and Noriko, Kazumi and Kakeru, and Keigo and I.
After those were taken, it would be by the newly weds and the pairs. I went first with Keigo as I stood next to okaa-san. She smiled at me as I smiled back before our photo was taken. We took about two of the same pose before the next couple had to go. Next it was going to be all me and my sisters with okaa-san. I stood on her left with Fuka while Kazumi was on her right.
Once we finished with that, I asked okaa-san if I could go and walk around for a bit. She allowed me to. I left and headed towards one of the cherry blossom trees that were by the small stream. I found the little bridge and I walked towards it. I was standing in the middle and I had a perfect view of the small water fall. I grabbed my cell phone and took a picture of it. I smiled at my shot and made it as my wallpaper.
I put my cell phone away and sighed with a smile. If I had a car, I would come here all the time. Seriously. I would come here just to relax and get away from the world or even if I had a special someone, I would come here with him.
"Excuse me, miss," I heard a voice coming from the left. I looked and it was the photographer's assistant. She had brown hair with what looked like natural light brown streaks and brown eyes that were covered by square framed glasses.
"Yes?" I asked as I walked over towards her.
"I was wondering if I can take some photos of you for my portfolio. I'll even give you copies of them for free," She asked timidly as she held her camera.
"Sure. I'm Ayase Setsuna," I held my hand out for her to shake.
"Niwa Ami," She shook my hand. "Can I have you by a cherry blossom tree, please?"
I nodded my head and walked over to the cherry blossom tree that was near the bridge. I then asked her what she would like me to do. Ami asked if I could lean against the tree and place my hand on it, like if I was looking or hiding for someone. I did the pose and she adjusted the bottom of my dress. After she walked a few paces back, she took a picture. She took about three more with the same pose and then she walked over to me.
"Would you like to see how it looks like?" Ami asked me as she approached me.
"Sure." I looked at the picture and I was amazed. Ami captured the scenery perfectly. I didn't care if I looked good or not. I mostly focused on the scenery. "Wow this is good!"
"Thank you. Now let's continue," Ami said with a smile. We walked towards the bridge and said that she wanted to do a shot with the waterfall. I told her that that would be awesome. She wandered off for a minute before coming back with a rose.
'Where did she find that?' I thought but ignored my own question seeing that it was a rhetorical one.
She handed me the rose and said, "Okay, place the rose on your right hand and lift it so that's next to your lips. Then with your left hand place it lightly over your right hand."
"Okay," and with that I did what she asked me to do. I moved the rose and placed it on my right hand and by my lips. She walked towards me and adjusted my hair and hands a bit. She took two steps back and said to look towards my right. My eyes moved towards that direction and I waited for her to take the picture. Ami took it and then said to look towards the camera. I did and there went a couple more flashes.
"I think one more with a different pose would be good enough. Um, where do you want to take the next one?" Ami asked as we walked back towards where everyone else was at.
"Hmm," I ponder as I looked around. All I found were more flowers, a bench, and trees; wait a bench! "Does you camera allow you to take photos when someone is in motion?" I asked with enthusiasm.
"Yeah it does. Why?" She asked me as she changed the setting of her camera.
"'Cause I thought of jumping off the bench and posing at the same time," I smiled at her as I took off my heels and stepped on the grass.
Ami smiled and said, "That's a good idea, Setsuna. I'll take multiple shots of one pose and do the same for another."
"Okay," I said as I got on top of the bench. "Ready?" I asked her.
"Yup. Go for it!"
I began to run towards the end of the bench and as soon as I reached it, I jumped. My knees were bent and facing towards the left. My arms were up, in an L shape, and I laughed. This was fun. Once I landed, I went back towards the bench and got on top of it. Once Ami told me she was ready, I ran and jumped again. My knees were bent like before but this time I held the end of my dress like if I curtsied to someone.
"Was that good?" I asked Ami as I put my shoes back on. She looked through all the pictures and said,
"Yeah they're all good. Thank you so much Setsuna!" She hugged me.
I laughed and said, "No problem. Do you need the portfolio for a job interview?"
"Yeah; there's this fashion magazine that I applied to. They liked my resume and all they needed was my portfolio," She explained to me as we walked back to the others.
"Well, I wish you the best of luck. I'm sure you'll get the job." I smiled at her.
"Thanks."
By the time we arrived, the photographer was taking the last photo. I gave Ami my email and address so she can send me the photos. Once the photographer finished, we were going to the reception. I waved goodbye to Ami and headed with everyone back towards the limo.
"What took you so long, Setsuna?" Okaa-san asked me once the driver began to drive.
"Oh well the photographer's assistant asked if she could take photos of me for her portfolio. She needed it for a job at a fashion magazine," I explained to her.
"Oh that's nice. If she sends you photos, I want a copy," She told me.
"Me too," Keigo whispered in my ear.
"No way in hell I'm giving you one," I stepped on his foot with my heel. He cried out in pain while I just innocently smiled.
It wasn't long before we arrived at the hotel where the reception was being held. I got out of the limo with the help of Kakeru. I held my purse as I walked inside the hotel. Everyone walked behind me as I walked towards one of the elevators. I pressed the button and immediately the door opened. We all got in and Masao pressed the button.
Not long after the button was pressed, we went up and then the door opened. In front of us was the ballroom that the reception was being held. Okaa-san and Masao got out first and then the rest of us got out. Right when we all walked in, someone announced that the newly weds were here and everyone stood up and clapped. It was there when we were able to go to our tables.
The way that everything was placed was something like this: The stage was at the front and center; next to that there was a small orchestra, who was already playing music; the table where okaa-san, Masao, and Megumi and her boyfriend would sit, along with other people was right across the stage. In between, there was a dance floor and along the edges of that was the remainder of the tables.
I looked for Haruhi and everyone. I looked around and found them. They were sitting in between okaa-san's table and the stage. Unfortunately, Jun Kazumi and the others were three tables away from us.
I walked towards that direction when someone said, "Setsuna!" I looked and it was Manami that shouted my name. She smiled and got up from her chair, which was next to Satoshi.
"Hey Manami," I said with a smile as she hugged me.
"Look at you! You're so pretty!"
"Thanks! You look pretty too."
She said thanks and led me to the table where everyone else was at. In order, they sat as follows: Hidekazu, Manami, Satoshi, Tatsuo, Jun Kazumi, an empty chair that was for Kazumi, Jiro, and Masahiro.
"Yo," I said with a wave.
"Hey," Hidekazu said as he got up from his seat and hugged me. Satoshi did the same too. Everyone else just waved.
"So where are you sitting at?" Manami asked me as she sat down again.
"Oh, I'm sitting with my friends," I emphasized the word.
"Really? Where are they?" Jun Kazumi asked with her little annoying voice.
"Over there," I pointed and looked towards where the Host club was at. I was lucky enough to catch Mori's attention as I tried to motion for him to send help.
"They're your friends!? Wow the guys are all attractive and the girl is adorable," Manami said. Satoshi gave her a look but she told him that no one would beat him.
"Suna-chan!" I heard Hunny's voice as he bounced towards me.
'Thank you Mori!' I smiled at Hunny and said, "Hey Hunny."
"Takashi and I were wondering what was taking you so long, but not anymore since I found you," He said with his adorable smile and his little flowers. Then he looked at everyone and introduced himself. "Hi! I'm Haninozuka Mitsukuni."
"He's so cute!" I heard both Manami and Jun Kazumi say.
"Who's Takashi?" I heard Tatsuo say. Hahah, he's jealous.
"His full name is Morinozuka Takashi and he is my cousin. Also Suna-chan's boyfriend. Ne, Takashi?"
I suddenly felt someone's hand on my hip. I looked at the owners hand and saw that it was Mori. Mori looked directly at Tatsuo, intimidating him as he said, "Yeah."
If only you saw the look on Jun Kazumi's and Tatsuo's face. It was priceless. I wrapped my arm around his waist and said, "I should get going. Have fun."
We walked away from their table and headed towards our own. Once we got there, I smiled at everyone and said, "Hey!" In order it was Kaoru, Hikaru, Haruhi, Tamaki, Kyoya, and then three empty seats.
Mori kindly pulled out my seat for me and I sat down as he pushed it back in. He sat on my left while Hunny sat on my right.
"Thank you both so much! I thought I was going to be killed there," I told the two.
"No problem, Suna-chan. But I think that you should continue the act since that guy keeps looking at this direction. Who is he?" Hunny asked me after drinking some of his water.
"What act does she have to put on?" Haruhi asked since she was sitting across from us.
"That Mori and I are dating," I said. "And the guy is Fujiwara Tatsuo, my ex-boyfriend. Is it alright if we continue the act, Mori?" I asked.
"Its fine," He reassured me.
"I'll touch your arm whenever Tatsuo or anyone of them is looking, okay Suna-chan," Hunny smiled at me.
"Thanks Hunny," I pulled him into a hug.
It wasn't long before we were being served our dinner. We all laughed and joked around. It was fun, just all of us hanging around and not worrying about host club stuff. Hunny touched my arm about six times and I would comply by either kissing Mori's cheek or doing other affectionate things. Mori would also do affectionate movements when he noticed one of them looking. I was actually surprised that everyone else didn't mind. I then felt someone touch my shoulder. I looked up and smiled.
"Anzu!" I said with a big smile as I got up from my chair and hugged her.
"Hey! Man you look beautiful!" She told me as she looked at me.
"You too!" She wore a light blue dress that was strapless and reached her knees.
"Setsuna!" Kain shouted as he pulled me into a hug.
I laughed and said, "Hey Kain!" He wore a black tux with a black vest and tie. After we pulled apart I then said, "These are my friends. This is Haninozuka Mitsukuni, Ootori Kyoya, Suoh Tamaki, Fujioka Haruhi, Hitachiin Hikaru and Kaoru, and Morinozuka Takashi. Everyone, this is Watari Anzu and Kishimoto Kain."
"Hi there," Kain and Anzu said together, they held hands and waved with the other.
"Hello," everyone said.
"What time are we going to perform?" I asked them.
"Well right now we are going to do some songs and after your okaa-san does the toast and serves the cake, that's when you're going to sing. You better dance when we play," Kain said with a smile.
"Don't worry I will," I laughed.
"We should go now. We'll see you on the dance floor," Anzu said.
"Bye!" Once they walked away, I sat back down. It wasn't long before I heard them begin to play. It was the song Girls Just Want to Have Fun. "Haruhi, c'mon let's dance." I got up from my seat and went to grab Haruhi.
"Suna-chan, I can't dance," She told me as I pulled her up.
"Nonsense, no one will care if you can or can't. I'm gonna dance around like an idiot," I told her as I began to dance. She then began to move around and I smiled. "That's it. Just let the beat move you."
By then, more and more people began to dance as well. Haruhi and I were just laughing and having a good time. We spun each other around and just enjoyed ourselves. I sang along with the lyrics and spun around. The music began to slow down and then Kaoru and Hikaru showed up.
"Let's dance, Setsuna-senpai," Kaoru said as he asked for my hand.
"Sure," I grabbed his hand and we began to dance. Untouched was now being sung. I looked and saw Hikaru dancing with Haruhi. I smiled and thought, 'Maybe he does have a crush on her. Who knows?' I looked towards Tamaki and I saw him whining to Kyoya. I think it was something about protecting his precious Haruhi from the grips of Hikaru. 'I wonder...'
Me and Kaoru were spinning around and did all these funny faces. We both then dragged Haruhi and Hikaru so we can form our own little circle. I was pushed in the middle and I began to dance. I moved my hips to the beat and then jumped up and down. The song then changed again to Bad Boy. I grabbed Hikaru and danced with him. He followed my movements as I moved my hips. He then grabbed my hand and spun me around. I laughed at his gestured and for the fun of it, spun him around.
The song was changing and everyone else went to sit back down. Dance, Dance played and my hands we taken by someone.
"Suna-chan let's dance," I heard Hunny say. I laughed and nodded.
I mostly twirled Hunny around since he was shorter than me. My relatives that were dancing by us thought he was so cute since he was laughing a lot. I bet they thought he was a little kid. Before the song ended, Tamaki showed up and asked if he could dance with me. Hunny let go of my hands as I said yes. Sakura Kiss was now playing.
We did the waltz but I found it funny since it was to a fast song. But we didn't mess up. Tamaki sure did have good dancing skills. He spun me and I placed my hand back on his shoulder. Jun Kazumi was dancing near us with Manami and she was shocked. Her eyes widened at the sight of Tamaki. Did I forget to mention that she loves blondes with colored eyes? I stuck my tongue out at her when we danced by them.
"What was that for, Setsuna-senpai?" Tamaki asked me with a chuckle.
"Oh nothing," I said innocently.
We kept on dancing and the song ended. Tamaki bowed and thanked me for the dance. I curtsied and said no problem. Then, Kyoya came along and asked if I could dance with him. I said yes and then the next song played. It was Can't Fight the Moonlight. We did the waltz as well.
"Having fun, Kyoya?" I asked him as he spun me.
"I'm actually having fun. And how about you, Setsuna-senpai?" He asked me.
"Of course I am. I'm glad that you all came. It would have been boring if you didn't."
He smiled another real smile and twirled me again. The song ended and that was when Masao asked if everyone could take their seats. Kyoya bowed and I curtsied. I hooked my arm with his as he led me back to our table. Once again, Mori stood up and pulled out my seat. I sat down and thanked him.
I got hit on the arm by Hunny and I took that as a sign saying that Tatsuo was looking. I kissed Mori on the cheek as a sign of appreciation. He blushed as he grabbed my hand and kissed it. It was now my turn to blush. I liked this little game that we were playing. It's just that I hope that it would be for real in the future.
Okaa-san and Masao got up from where she was sitting and called everyone's attention. I was tapped on the arm again, this time by both Hunny and Mori, and I felt Mori take my hand and lifted it up to the table. I looked at him and he smiled, making me smile too.
"First of all, thank you all for coming to one of the most special days of mine and Masao's life," okaa-san began. "I would like to thank everyone who was a part of this wedding and all those who helped. I especially want to thank my three wonderful daughters. Girls, stand up."
Mori let go of my hand as I awkwardly stood up. I gave a small wave to everyone, as did Fuka and Kazumi.
Okaa-san continued, "I want to thank my beautiful daughters for being part of this special day. I want to thank you for accepting this wedding and for all the love and support you have given me. I love you with the bottom of my heart." She blew each of us a kiss.
Everyone clapped at her little speech that she gave about us. I clapped as well and then sat down. Mori took a hold of my hand once again and gave it a squeeze. I squeezed back as well. Okaa-san's speech continued on as she and Masao took turns thanking all the people that came to the wedding. Then Megumi and her boyfriend took turns speaking since they are the Maid of Honor and the Best Man.
'My doom is coming soon,' I thought as I drank some Coke.
