Oneshot for the Holidays (afterwards)
By Loveless1617
[Author's Note]: Please read for any indication of an upcoming series!
First off, I just need to say that I absolutely loved writing up the wedding scene~ XD
But most importantly, I have to be honest...
DX
On Christmas, I actually kinda did write that overnight...
(I gave up part of my christmas to finish it, but that's not important~)
What WAS important was that I realized at about 11:00 PM that I did not finish my story from about two weeks ago and that I DID NOT EVEN HAVE TIME TO EDIT IT.
So as I was quickly trying to finish the story up, I also realized I had to make some major changes and cut out about half the stuff I had to write about for the sakes of "getting it in on time". So of course, I contemplated just posting the chapter a day late and, at the very least, EDITING the thing. But I just decided to hurry up and post it, thinking that i'm "just gonna edit the whole thing anyways". :(
Long story short, I KNOW THAT IT WAS A PRETTY RUSHED CHAPTER FOR THE FINAL ENDING OF ONESHOT FOR THE HOLIDAYS, AND THAT I DID NOT DO IT ANY JUSTICE BY NOT EVEN LOOKING TWICE AT IT BEFORE I CLICKED SUBMIT :(
So i decided to, (if it's something that anyone wants) to go on with a sequel. (that way, it's technically not the LAST LAST ending, but~)
Yeah, I will pretty much go on with another series and there WILL BE a January chapter. I'm really sorry, and I will try to get out this procrastinating habit before the series starts.
I will post another updated post for more information soon.
(adding me to your "author alert" will remind you to read it, if necessary).
Otherwise, just enjoy the final chapter of this story~
[Day of the Wedding]
Having a wedding so soon was nowhere near possible.
Even planning it would have taken months.
But because Yuuri, apparently, planned it beforehand,
Everything seemed to go on as a success.
And today...
"I'm getting married..." Wolfram whispered happily, as he woke up that morning. He looked out the window and everything just seemed to glow: The snow outside on the trees were glistening in the sun's light and the sweet chirping of birds didn't even annoy him today.
Because today...
Wolfram couldn't help but smile again as he quickly got out of bed.
Even though it was his wedding day, he was ordered to just do absolutely nothing to help prepare for the ceremony and rest until it was time to get ready. He slept in late, as a result, and enjoyed the last time he would ever sleep in bed alone.
[They were not allowed to see each other until the ceremony]
"Ah~ what should I do now?" Wolfram asked himself, as he walked about in his own, separate room. It was mostly empty now because his belongings were being moved to another wing inside Blood Pledge Castle for the newlyweds. Except for the bed, in which he slept on, and the bathroom, which he would use to at least wash up, everything else was already packed and gone. Wolfram was ecstatic at the fact that he would officially be sharing rooms with Yuuri.
He walked into the bathroom to wash up and take a bath, though he would probably wash up again anyways before the final fitting. He undid his nightgown and let it drop to the floor, as he practically jumped into the filled bathtub. It wasn't nearly as large as Yuuri's own, but it was still big enough for him to swim around in.
He waded to the side of the bath and sat there, letting his body relax a bit and enjoy the steaming heat from his bath water.
Wolfram opened his eyes after a bit and noticed a package on the side of the bathtub. He reached for it and found the box filled with red flower petals. He blinked back in surprise and noticed a card inside. He read aloud:
"Good morning, Wolfram~ ^^
I wanted you to relax after you woke up,
so I prepared the bath for you.
If you put these flower petals in the water,
it'll make the water smell really good~
(I didn't put them in because I knew you'd sleep late.
By the time you got in, they'd probably already sink, so~)
Anyways, I can't see you at all until the ceremony~ :(
It makes me want to see you so much more now that
they're keeping us apart,
but I'll make sure the wedding is a success!
I prepared more notes like these here and there,
so look for them, okaa? :)
~~~Yuuri
Wolfram smiled, then took a handful of the flower petals and let them float over the water. It was true, that they made the water smell good after a while and even more so that they were just pretty to look at. But it made him so much happier just knowing that it was for him...
He stretched his legs and laid in the bathtub, soaking in the smell as he relaxed in the tub.
After Christmas,
Yuuri finally told me what happened during the Thanksgiving preparation.
He explained to me that he didn't know what to get me for Christmas
and that he was really bad at giving gifts,
so he wanted to ask someone.
When he saw Alex talking with me, he got jealous.
He only asked to talk to Alex
(he was originally going to ask his mom, or something)
because he wanted to get Alex away from me.
When he talked to Alex about it,
Alex wasn't at all pleased with the idea that
Yuuri didn't even know what to get his own lover.
And Alex himself came up with a million different ideas,
But Yuuri didn't want to give me just anything...
He wanted to get me something special...
That was when Alex brought up the idea of a wedding,
and all of a sudden-
Well, he decided to just go along with that idea. Anything else that happened was really just a misunderstanding...
[flashback: parts from chapter 12]
[As soon as he knew that they were far enough away from Wolfram, Yuuri stopped and turned to Alex in front of his bedroom door. He was a bit nervous and embarrassed at what he was about to discuss, but he knew it was important, so…
"So, then, what can I do for you, Yuuri?" Alex curiously asked.
"Well," Yuuri began, not knowing where to start. "I was wondering if you could help me with something..."
"Yes, I know, so what is it—" Yuuri grabbed Alex's arm and leaned forward.
[Yuuri's just being really detemined to explain his situation; he's not implying anything by leaning closer]
"Can you… keep a secret…?" Yuuri asked. [secret: about giving him a gift]
"W-What?" Alex took a step back. "What do you want me to…?"
"I need you to keep this a secret from Wolfram," Yuuri began, as he gently pulled Alex closer— but only close enough so that he could whisper into his ears. [Yuuri's just trying to whisper, so that no one hears them]
"Yuuri…heika?" Alex whispered, in confusion. "What exactly-?"
"I need to know…" Then leaned forward to whisper something into his ears…
["I need to know if you can help me pick out a Christmas gift for Wolfram?"]
~V~V~V~
[After a couple of scenes...]
"So then, you'll be helping me out?" Yuuri asked, when they were just about to finish talking.
"Of course! I'm happy to fulfill every one of your wishes, your majesty." Alex smiled. "If I can't even do that, how can anyone expect me to obey my king and serve him to the fullest?"
[Alex is just being sarcastic, for no particular reason. If anything, he's just making fun of Yuuri]
Yuuri scratched his head. "Well, you don't have to go that far, but..."
Alex walked towards the door, but quickly turned around to add, "so we'll talk again in a bit?" to confirm their plans. [Alex is just finds it amusing that Yuuri can't figure out a gift to give and he's just interested in buying a gift for Wolfram]
"Yeah, I'll see you in a bit," Yuuri smiled, after watching him leave.
He walked over to his bed and sat down.
Yuuri sighed.
"I hope he doesn't find out…" He murmured and sighed from all the stress. [Yuuri wants to keep it a surprise, so...]
~V~V~V~
[Another couple of scenes later]
["Alex, I don't think we should talk too much anymore..." Yuuri muttered, as he let Alex into his bedroom.
"Eh? Why not?" Alex turned to him. "Did Wolfram say anything?"
"...Well, he's been a bit on edge lately, so..."
"But don't you want to do this?" ]
[Alex is just talking about coming up with Wolfram's gift]
["Are you going to listen to everything Wolfram says?" Alex sighed. "Isn't it about time you do something you want to do?" Alex helped Yuuri relax in a chair. [He's just pushing Yuuri on as a friend]
"B-But..."
"Trust me, he won't find out. Okay?" Alex whispered, holding his hands in reassurance. [He's just being gentle, like talking to a timid pet or something, and trying to convince him to just finish preparing his gift. It's the least he can do, for causing whatever grief he gave to Wolfram this whole time]
"...okay, then..."
Alex slipped out of his jacket and tossed it to the ground. "Now then, you can just pretend that I'm Wolfram..."]
[Since, at this point, they already decided to plan a wedding (or at least, most of it so that Wolfram can decide on decorations and stuff), Alex is just helping Yuuri find a way to propose to Wolfram. Alex is just saying that he wants Yuuri to pretend that he's Wolfram and practice proposing to him]
(That last scene, where Wolfram walked in, was when Yuuri shoved Alex onto the bed for being mean and laughing at his way of proposing.
[End Flashback]
Basically, Yuuri was being suspicious for no reason at all...
(he was rather misleading, though...)
Makes me feel stupid for worrying for no reason...
Wolfram sighed, but there was nothing he could do over what had already been done.
After taking at least an hour in the bath, he finally got out of the tub and let the water drain out. He got into his bathrobe and walked over to the sink to brush his teeth. After putting the toothpaste on his toothbrush, he looked up to find a piece of paper sticking to the mirror (a post-it note):
"Yo, Wolfram~ :P
Hurry up and brush your teeth~
I made a delicious breakfast, myself, just for you
(a breakfast in bed... so lucky~)
A maid's probably in with the food,
so hurry up and go look! ;) "
After reading it over, Wolfram couldn't help but laugh at all his smiley faces and drawings.
"Yuuri's so weird~" Wolfram shook his head, though he couldn't help but want to hurry up and go look. He quickly brushed his teeth and walked out-
And just as he said, a maid had already brought in and laid out a meal for him on the round-table by his bed. He took a seat and looked over what had been prepared:
All on a matching plate set, were potato cakes with a small green salad, cranberry scones with oatmeal, crepes stuffed with fruits and syrup, bacon and eggs, and a cup of black tea with milk.
"Woah..." He blinked back in surprise. "When did he prepare all this...?"
Wolfram sat down in his seat and, using his utensils, reached for some food and took a bite...
And everything was just delicious.
The potato cakes were a little salty at first, but with the green salad, the saltiness was soon forgotten. The cranberry scones with oatmeal were amazingly sweet and delicious, and it surprised him that they were baked to perfection with its warm, golden crust. The crepes were soft and seemed to melt into his mouth with the cream, syrup, and fruits inside it, and he couldn't find anything wrong with the bacon and eggs. And of course, a cup of hot black tea with milk to finish it all off. It was a pretty simple meal for him, but he had to admit it was amazing.
"I can't even cook like this..." Wolfram pouted, as he took another bite out of the cranberry scones. "Do I have to learn how to cook for him?" He wondered, as he started to lose himself in thought.
But he couldn't help but just sit there and grin again-
"Geez, I can't stop myself~" Wolfram smiled, as he quickly finished up eating. But as it turned out, he slept a little too late...
"Wolfram!" Cheri-sama ran inside.
"H-Hahaue?" Wolfram nearly jumped out of his seat when he heard the door bust open. "What are you doing here alre-"
"I'm sorry I'm late!" She cried, as she swept Wolfram off his feet and hugged him tightly in her arms. "But you need to hurry up and get ready too, or else you'll be late!" She quickly grabbed his hands and dragged him out.
"W-What? Where are we going?" He asked, though Cheri-sama didn't answer. She was just happily dragging her about-to-be-married son out of his room to go and get ready.
"We're going to have to get you dressed, if you want to get married at all~" She grinned, as they made their way to the Maou's chambers.
"W-Wait, I can't go in there! I'm not supposed to see Yuuri until the wedding-"
"Don't worry, don't worry~" Cheri-sama opened the door and pushed Wolfram in. "He's already ready and outside while the guests walk in."
Wolfram was quickly scooted to a large chair in front of another large mirror, while a couple dozens of maids pampered over him.
"Wait, no, get his Highness to the bath!" A maid shouted, and he was quickly rushed to the bath. After getting bathed and washed all over again, he was pushed back into his chair in nothing but a robe. Another maid bowed before laying him back in his chair and poured creams and powders all over his face. Another maid did his makeup and another prepared his wedding clothes (all of which was prepared by Yuuri, himself). He had absolutely no time to prepare himself emotionally by the time he was ready to go out.
He was, however, allowed a moment to himself before he put on his clothes.
Wolfram was pushed into another room for changing.
And the first thing he saw was a beautifully made wedding dress with a lace and ribbons.
He walked up to it and noticed another note:
"Wolfram~
You're going to look so cute in this dress~ ^^
I can't wait to see you in it
while you walk down the aisle :)
I picked it myself, so you have to wear it! :P"
"...He's making me wear a dress?"
~V~V~V~
"Yuuri-heika," Alex greeted Yuuri as he walked in for the wedding ceremony.
"Oh, Alex~" Yuuri happily greeted Alex.
"So, then, wasn't this a great idea?" Alex asked, referring to the wedding.
Yuuri nodded.
"I couldn't have thought of this myself. Thanks for helping me! Otherwise, I would've not known where to even begin. Even though..."
Even though you like Wolfram too...
"Well, it was pretty fun, so I have no complaints." Alex started to walk away. "Well, I want to go and greet the bride, so~"
"W-What?"
"Well, I need to clear things up, don't I? With the bride..."
"C-Clear what up...?" Yuuri asked, feeling threatened.
Alex just grinned at Yuuri's obvious behavior and walked away.
"W-Wait!" But Yuuri was trapped by the other guests that arrived for the ceremony.
Geez...
He better not saying anything weird to change Wolfram's mind...
~V~V~V~
As Wolfram got into the dress anyways, he heard a knock on the door.
"H-Hold on a second!" Wolfram screamed towards the door, as he quickly pulled on the dress and took a step back to look in the mirror.
The door opened anyways and he was flocked by his family.
Cheri-sama squealed in delight as she saw her son in the adorable dress that her new son-in-law picked out for him.
"You're so cuuute~" Cheri-sama squealed, as she grabbed her son once more and whirled him around in circles.
"H-Hahaue!" He screamed, as he was about to fall over.
But he was quickly saved by Conrad, who quickly helped him stand.
With a smile, he said, "You look beautiful, Wolfram."
Wolfram quickly pulled away and blushed.
Stupid little big brother...
Gwendal merely nodded in the background, though he wasn't about to agree with words.
More and more guests walked in to see the bride before it was time to go.
When it finally seemed as if everyone had left for the wedding, he heard one last knock on the door.
"C-Come in!" Wolfram yelled, as he fixed his hair in the mirror.
When the door opened, he whirled around to see Alex standing at the door.
"Hi Wolfram~" Alex smiled, as he walked towards him.
Wolfram backed away.
Even though Yuuri told me what happened...
I still don't like it...
Him being here...
Noticing that Wolfram was uncomfortable with him getting closer, Alex laughed.
"I'm not going to do anything to you now." Alex smiled, though he stayed where he was.
"I-I know that..." Wolfram muttered, then sat down.
"Hm..." Alex sat down too on a chair across from him. "Well, I only came to clear some things up before you were finally married." Alex said, as he played with the flowers on the table.
"Yuuri already cleared everything up," Wolfram muttered coldly, trying hard to end the conversation.
"Probably why he did what he did," Alex looked at Wolfram. "But not why I took part in it willingly."
"...?"
"When he dragged me away and he told me that he didn't even know what he wanted to get you, well..." Alex paused, trying to look for the exact words he wanted to say. "Well, I just thought he was an idiot. I mean, how does your lover not even know what you want most?" Alex looked down and started to play with a flower petal. "I just told him I'll try to think of something and I left his room that first time. But then I remembered that I forgot something in there, and I went back to overhear your conversation with Yuuri." He looked up. "And I realized you were jealous, though Yuuri was oblivious to everything."
"..."
"Well, I knew that if I somehow separated you from Yuuri, I'd have a chance with you. So I figured, why not make it look like Yuuri and I have something going on, so that you'd break it off with him...?"
"...!" Wolfram looked up at him with a furious glare, though Alex just ignored it completely.
"I tried to talk to him as soon as I could. And to start somewhere, I told him to get you jewelry or something expensive. I listed just about a million things, but Yuuri was being so picky, even though he didn't even know what he wanted to get you."
"...and?"
"But then he told me he wanted to get you the most perfect gift in the world. Perfect enough to make an impression on you forever; something that you'd never forget. He wanted it to be memorable, something important..." He put the flower petal away and looked back up at him. "That it couldn't just be anything..."
"..."
Y-Yuuri...
"I didn't want to say it, but he looked so disgustingly in love with you that I couldn't help it. I told him that there was something like that and that it was something that only he could give to you. Something that you've been waiting for, for a long time..." Alex smiled.
"T-That's..."
"A wedding." Alex stood up. "He told me then that he'd surprise you with a wedding and prepare everything for you so that you don't have to be stressed over a single thing. But instead, he worked me to death with the invitations, the catering, the decorations..." He shook his head to, what it seemed to be, bad memories. But he smiled anyways."But it was all for his lover..."
Wolfram looked down and blushed.
"Yuuri..."
"The more I helped him, I realized that he really was in love with you. It was almost disgusting how much he fawned over you and talked about you. He was so annoying!" Alex shook his head again and sighed.
"But he did a really good job preparing most of the wedding." He made a bittersweet smile as he admitted in defeat, "And he really is in love with you."
Wolfram looked down in embarrassment at hearing those words from another person.
"Yeah..." Wolfram smiled.
Alex walked up to him.
"I'm also still in love with you, though." Alex declared, as he put a hand on his shoulders. "I realized it's stupid to ask now, but I needed to tell you that."
"..."
There was a moment of silence as Alex waited for an answer and as Wolfram tried to come up with one.
"I..." Wolfram looked down and answered, "I'm really happy whenever Yuuri talks to me about anything he wants to talk about or whenever he asks me how my day is, because I really love hearing him talk. I'm really happy when he plays with my hair or buys me something stupid, like some random keychain or candy, because no matter what it is, I love it. I'm really happy whenever he takes me somewhere, whether it's to watch him play baseball or out on a date that he planned last minute." Wolfram couldn't help but smile at all those memories. He looked up and grinned, "It's all because I love him so much~"
"..." Alex sighed. He turned and walked out the opened door. "I know." He replied on his way out, just loud enough for Wolfram to hear.
Geez, and I thought I was so much better than that annoying idiot king...
Alex looked down and smiled as he walked away.
"Guess not..."
~V~V~V~
A maid quickly rushed in to tell him that it was time.
"I'm coming!" Wolfram told her, as he stood up and took one last look in the mirror.
"Oh, also this-" The maid reached into her pocket and held out another notecard in her hands. "Maou-heika asked to give this to you." She bowed, as Wolfram took it.
"Okay," he answered, allowing her to leave.
He opened it up and read:
"Wolfram, Wolfram, Wolfram~~~
We're about to get married :D
Hurry up and come out!
I have one last notecard for you
before the ceremony starts! ^^
(Make sure you're all ready before you leave~)"
Wolfram smiled and tossed it to the mirror stand. He pulled up his dress and walked out, now that he was all ready to go.
Another maid escorted him to the main ballroom where he was about to be wedded.
Wolfram struggled to look around for that last notecard, but he couldn't see anything...
When he finally got to the door of the ceremony hall, he was told to wait there until he was called by the officiant.
He nodded and let the maid take her place on the side.
He quickly looked around one last time for that note, but still couldn't find anything.
"Looking for something?" He heard a voice from behind and whirled around.
"C-Conrad?" Wolfram blinked back in surprise. "What are you...?"
"I'm escorting you to Heika." Conrad smiled, as he stood beside Wolfram.
"...It's Yuuri, Conrad." Wolfram corrected for Yuuri.
Conrad smiled.
"Oh, also," he took out a notecard from his pocket. "Yuuri told me to give this to you."
The last notecard...!
He looked up at Conrad and frowned.
Leave it to Conrad to send me the last notecard...
Is he trying to tell me that I still have some competition left with my own brother?
Wolfram took the note from Conrad and stared at it, "Is that idiot going to send another stupid message about nothing?"
He unfolded the last notecard and read:
"Wolfram,
these last few years with you
have been the most wonderful, incredible years of my life.
We kind of rushed it the first time I proposed to you:
You were mad at me for being human
and you disapproved of me being king;
and I was angry at you for saying bad things about my mom.
But I want to do it right,
because I love you more than life itself.
Wolfram von Bielefelt, I'm going to take you and marry you today.
And when I do, I'm never going to let you go."
Wolfram closed the letter and held it close to his chest.
That idiot...
Is he trying to make me cry before the wedding even starts...?
"You ready?" Conrad asked, as the doors began to open.
Wolfram looked up in shock.
W-Wait, I'm not even-
He heard the music begin to play and watched the guests start to stand.
Conrad held out his arm for him, and Wolfram took it as they started to walk forward.
Each and every step made him more and more nervous.
But when he thought about Yuuri standing on the other end...
Wolfram looked up and saw Yuuri smiling at him.
When he and Conrad finally reached the end, Conrad handed Wolfram to Yuuri and they took the extra couple of steps to stand at the alter.
The music slowly stopped and the audience took their seats as the ceremony began:
"We are gathered here today in the presence of these witnesses, to join Wolfram von Bielefelt and Yuuri Shibuya in matrimony, which is commended to be honorable among all men; and therefore is not by any to be entered into unadvisedly or lightly. Into this sanction, these two persons present now come to be joined. If any person can show just cause as to why they may not be joined together, then let them speak now or forever hold their peace."
Wolfram felt an enormous amount of pressure from this single moment, afraid that anyone could and would stop them, their wedding, from taking place-
But he was eased by Yuuri's comforting hands, as he silently and subtly took Wolfram's hands into his. And with a quick glance, Wolfram realized that it really didn't take anything for Yuuri to put him at ease.
Wolfram smiled, and intertwined his fingers with his.
After pausing and confirming the crowd's approval of the couple's marriage, the officiant continued: "I will now read a poem, Gift From The Sea, by Anne Morrow Lindbergh:"
Knowing that nobody else would notice him zoning out of his own wedding ceremony, Wolfram started another rant in his head, because it wasn't until now that the fact sunk into his head, that he was about to marry the man he loves:
I'm standing besides Yuuri in front of this alter...
we're about to be married...
{the officiant:]
"When you love someone,
you do not love them all the time,
in exactly the same way,
from moment to moment."
But I'm scared...
What if he starts to flirt around again?
And I have to make a huge scene about it...
What if he gets tired of me constantly nagging him about cheating?
"It is an impossibility.
It is even a lie to pretend to.
And yet this is exactly what most of us demand.
We have so little faith in the ebb and flow
of life, of love, of relationships.
What if I don't do my part well?
What if I'm just not what Yuuri expected and wanted to be in his wife...
We leap at the flow of the tide
and resist in terror, its ebb.
We are afraid it will never return.
We insist on permanency, on duration, on continuity;
I can't keep him all to myself every single day,
and I know that...
But...
when the only continuity possible,
in life as in love, is in growth, in fluidity-
in freedom, in the sense that the dancers are free,
barely touching as they pass,
but partners in the same pattern.
How am I supposed to know that he truly won't leave me...?
The only real security is not
in owning or possessing,
not in demanding or expecting,
not in hoping, even.
E-Eh?
Wolfram looked up, surprised that the officiant seemed to offer him an answer.
Security in a relationship lies
neither in looking back to what was in nostalgia,
nor forward to what it might be in dread or anticipation,
but living in the present relationship
and accepting it as it is now.
Living... in the moment...?
Relationships must be like islands:
one must accept them for what they are
here and now,
within their limits.
Accept them for what they are...
Islands, surrounded and interrupted by the sea,
and continually visited and abandoned by the tides."
Wolfram looked down and blinked back in amazement.
He had no idea that the officiant could put his words in his mouth...
Then, that means...
To trust Yuuri for who he is right now...
Despite what he used to do and who he used to be,
trust him, because he's my...
"Now, would you like to say something to your bride?" The officiant asked.
He looked over to Yuuri first.
Yuuri nodded and turned to Wolfram.
He smiled, and pulled out a card from his inside pocket and cleared his throat, to which he quickly used to read aloud slowly and meaningfully with each and every word:
"I take you, Wolfram, to be my wedded wife. I promise to continue to love and cherish, and to honor you, to keep and comfort you in sickness and in health, for richer or for poor, until death do us part." He smiled at Wolfram, and he couldn't believe how happy his lover looked right now.
"And you?" The man looked to Wolfram.
"Oh wait," Wolfram shook his head, looking back and forth between Yuuri and the officiant. "I-I didn't prepare-" But Yuuri smiled and cut him off.
"Don't worry, I handled that too," Yuuri handed him a notecard with a grin.
"Mm..." Wolfram looked down and took the card from his hand. "I, Wolfram von Bielefelt, take you, Yuuri Shibuya, to be my friend, my lover, the father of my children and my husband." He couldn't help but pause and smile at the words, but had to continue: "I will be yours in times of plenty and in times of want, in times of sickness and in times of health." Suddenly, he could hear his voice start to break and struggle to not cry. "I promise... to cherish and respect you... to care and protect you... to comfort-" Wolfram bit his lips, and held his hand to his mouth to keep from breaking down."...and encourage you, and stay with you-" He stopped and put the cards down, then looked into Yuuri's eyes. He was muttering nonsense to hold back from crying, but he finally took a breath and continued with his own words, "Yuuri," He nearly whimpered, trying so hard to keep from crying. He sighed and put the card on the alter. He turned to Yuuri and cried, "Yuuri, I'm still crazy about you after all these years..."
After an endearing cheer from the crowd, he quickly looked down and wiped his eyes, which were about to overflow with tears.
Yuuri smiled and helped lift Wolfram's head.
Then he quickly leaned in and wrapped his arms around his lover's small, quivering body.
There was a moment of silence, before the officiant asked, "And do you have the rings?"
Yuuri had to pull away and take a step back.
"This ring I give to you," He took the ring from the ring bearer and held it up, "as a token of my love and devotion to you. I pledge to you all that I am and all that I will ever be as your husband." He took Wolfram's hand and slipped it on his finger, "With this ring, I gladly marry you and join my life to yours."
Wolfram took the other ring that was handed to him by the ring bearer and took Yuuri's hand, repeating what Yuuri said. "This ring I give to you," He held the ring up, "as a token of my love and devotion to you. I pledge to you all that I am and all that I will ever be as your... wife..." He took Yuuri's hand and slipped it on his finger, "With this ring, I gladly marry you and join my life to yours." They smiled at each other, while Yuuri wiped Wolfram's tears from his eyes.
"Then, by the power vested in me, I now pronounce you are married. You may now kiss the bride."
Wolfram and Yuuri turned to awkwardly face each other.
"U-Um, so," Wolfram awkwardly blushed, "So then, do i just-?"
Yuuri chuckled a bit, then held his hand over his face. "I love you," He whispered happily, then leaned in closer. "I love you so much-" He pressed his lips against his.
Wolfram furiously blushed, especially after hearing the crowd behind him cheer. But if anything, he was so happy...
Even though he wanted more, Yuuri had to pull away.
He licked his lips and smiled.
The officiant then announced, "I now present to you Yuuri and Wolfram Shibuya."
The crowd began to cheer loudly as Yuuri led the way for Wolfram down steps, down the aisle, and out the palace doors to the gates, where a large, white carriage was waiting.
He helped Wolfram inside first then quickly got in too.
The crowd began to follow them out and cheered even louder as they watched them leave in a fairytale-like setting into the early setting sun.
"Yuuri, I-"
Yuuri quickly pulled Wolfram on top of him and kissed him.
"Nn!" Wolfram nearly melted at the way Yuuri kissed him so passionately, yet so forcefully, with his arms wrapped around Wolfram's neck to hold him close and feel each other heating up in the winter cold.
When they finally let go, Yuuri gently licked Wolfram's lips and smiled.
"I missed you~" He whispered, as Wolfram blushed.
"W-We were just together!"
"I know, but..." Yuuri pulled him close again. "I don't think we've even kissed each other since the proposal, since everyone kept us away from each other."
Wolfram smiled and rested his forehead on top of his.
"Yeah, we haven't..." Wolfram finally smiled.
"You're so pretty~" Yuuri cupped his face into his hands. "You're adorable~"
But Wolfram quickly slapped his hands away.
"Wait, why did you have to make me wear a dress! I could've just worn a suit like you!"
"Well~" Yuuri tried to think of an excuse, but it was obvious...
"You just want to see me looking like a girl!" Wolfram shouted as he started to punch him in the chest.
"Ow~ You're punches hurt, Wolfram~" Yuuri cried playfully, before pushing Wolfram down.
After pausing for a moment and looking into each other's eyes, Wolfram hugged him and pulled him close.
"We're finally..." Yuuri nodded.
"We are..." Yuuri replied, as he helped him up.
"W-What...?"
"We're here already~" Yuuri said, as the carriage stopped and the door opened.
Yuuri nodded at the driver and gave him his pay.
"Thank you," Yuuri said to the driver, before turning back to Wolfram.
"Even though it's still winter, the ships are still running, since this area of the ocean didn't freeze at all." Yuuri helped Wolfram out the carriage onto the dock.
"You're taking me on a cruise?" Wolfram screamed. "You know I get seasick!"
"...oh yeah..." Yuuri forgot. "So that's what I forgot to change..."
"Oh yeah? What do you mean 'oh yeah'? How can you forget?"
Yuuri stuck his tongue out and smiled.
"woops." But before Wolfram could start another angry rant, Yuuri picked him up in his arms.
"W-What are you doing?" Wolfram screamed, as Yuuri walked into the cruise ship. "I'm going to fall! Let go!"
"Relax, you're not going to fall~" Yuuri chuckled, as he watched Wolfram quiver at the thought of falling.
They quickly boarded the ship and were greeted by the crew and the soldiers serving as bodyguards. The maids and chefs were also there to greet the newly wedded couple.
They were then led to a secluded dining room with a full-course dinner prepared just minutes before. As soon as the dinner menu was explained, everyone left the room to let them be.
Yuuri quickly sat down and pulled Wolfram in next to him.
"Let's eat first, then~" Yuuri said, as he helped pull Wolfram's dress in.
Wolfram nodded in agreement, since they were both starved.
But before Wolfram could start eating, Yuuri stopped him.
"Wait, Wolfram."
"...?"
"I really want to do this..." He took a spoonful of soup and held it up to his mouth to blow on and cool. Then he slowly drew in near Wolfram's mouth.
Wolfram started to laugh.
"You want to feed me?" Wolfram asked, as he let him anyways.
Yuuri nodded happily when Wolfram ate the food from his hand.
"I always thought it was cute." Yuuri said, as he took both their cups and filled them with some wine.
"Mm... really?" Wolfram took a spoonful of the soup too and help it up to Yuuri's mouth.
Yuuri leaned over and tasted it.
"Mm~" Yuuri smiled. "It's delicious~" Yuuri then set down the two cups of wine and turned to Wolfram.
"Isn't it?" He took more food from different dishes and started to feed it to him. After pausing and waiting for Yuuri to finish chewing, Wolfram asked, "How is it?"
"They're all so good~" Yuuri cried happily.
Wolfram giggled.
"Ah, you too~" Yuuri took the same foods Wolfram gave him and fed it to him.
"Mm~" Wolfram nodded. "Yeah, it really is delicious~"
They continued to feed each other until the end of their meal. Then, they were led away to
their royal chambers inside the ship and left with everything they needed: their luggage, a large pool already filled with warm water, and a large bed...
Wolfram ran in and looked around the large suite.
"Wow, everything is so pretty~" He toured around the room, which was decorated in white and gold marble and matching decor. When he entered the large bath, Yuuri slipped away to the bedroom, though Wolfram hardly noticed him gone when he was fascinated by the exquisite interior of the bathroom.
He leaned over the bathtub and started to play with the water, when Yuuri slipped back inside and hugged Wolfram from behind.
"You having fun?" Yuuri asked, as he breathed into his neck.
"Mhm!" Wolfram nodded happily.
"Mm..." Yuuri began to nuzzle his neck with his nose. "That's good..."
"Nn..." Wolfram didn't pull away when he continued to brush his lips onto the nape of his neck.
"Mn, you're not resisting..." Yuuri moaned, holding Wolfram still in his arms. "You're usually more resisting to these things..." He looked down so that their eyes were leveled with each other. "Does that mean...?"
Wolfram looked down and blushed.
Yuuri smiled, then gently took his hand and led him out to the bedroom.
"Y-Yuuri~" Wolfram mouthed, when he was amazed that Yuuri could already prepare so much in just a few minutes. Because when he last checked just minutes ago, the bedroom light wasn't dimmed and there weren't at least a couple of dozens of candles lit around the room for effect. The bed wasn't covered in rose petals, the windows weren't closed and curtained, and the bedroom door wasn't locked...
Yuuri led him to the end of the bed and let him sit down.
When he did, Yuuri kneeled in front of him.
"Y-Yuuri!" Wolfram tried to pull away. "A king isn't supposed to kneel-!"
"Wolfram," He spoke gently, as he caressed his hand.
"..."
"You were beautiful today, at the ceremony..." Yuuri whispered, as he rested his head on Wolfram's lap. "I knew you were going to get angry when you found out that you had to wear a dress, but I knew you'd look amazing in it, so..."
"Mm..." Wolfram couldn't exactly get angry like he usually would when Yuuri looked so happy. All he could add was, "you idiot..."
"Wolfram...?" Yuuri whispered.
"Yeah...?" Wolfram start to play with Yuuri's hair.
"This... is going to be our first time..."
"...?"
"...as husband and wife..." Yuuri added, noticing Wolfram's confusion.
And of course, Wolfram obvious response was to blush in embarrassment when he knew he was talking about their first time in bed...
"Y-You idiot!" Wolfram screamed, as he looked away.
"Haha..." Yuuri smiled, and slid his hands from his side to his legs. "You really are adorable..."
"I tried really hard to resist it before, but since it's our wedding night..."
Wolfram blushed, and whispered, "Y-You don't have to hold back today..."
Yuuri smiled, then started to massage Wolfram's legs.
"Then can I?" He asked, as he started to make him feel good.
"Nn..." Wolfram slowly nodded.
"...Ne, Wolfram..." Yuuri whispered, as he continued to massage.
"Yeah?"
"I meant everything I said before and at our wedding. And that last notecard-" Yuuri looked up. Then, he began to recite everything on the last notecard: "Wolfram, these last few years with you have been the most wonderful, incredible years of my life. We kind of rushed it the first time I proposed to you: You were mad at me for being human and you disapproved of me being king; and I was angry at you for saying bad things about my mom. But I want to do it right, because I love you more than life itself. Wolfram von Bielefelt, I'm going to take you and marry you today. And when I do, I'm never going to let you go..." He whispered, softly. "I'm going to make you happy." He added.
Wolfram looked down into his eyes and began to cry.
"Y-Yuuri..."
"Don't cry," He kissed his hand, "I promise I'll take care of you."
"Uuu..." It made him want to cry all the more.
"Wolfram-" But he was cut off when Wolfram pulled him up on top of him. "W-Wolfram?" He screamed in surprise, as he was suddenly pulled up.
"You made me so happy today at our wedding. You surprised me with everything: the decorations, the food, the ceremony. You planned everything so well, all on your own. " Wolfram wrapped his arms around Yuuri's neck. "So I want to make you happy too," He cried, as he began to kiss Yuuri's lips. "Because you're the most important person to me now~"
Yuuri rolled over and, now that he was on top, he smiled and began to kiss his lips too.
"Same here..." he moaned.
But he slipped away and kneeled again on the floor.
"Yuuri~" Wolfram whimpered, when Yuuri began to move away.
Yuuri slowly lifted Wolfram's dress and spread his legs.
"Y-Yuuri?" Wolfram blushed. "What are you doing!"
"I think... this is my first time doing this for you..." Yuuri pulled off Wolfram's underwear and prepared himself.
"F-First time doing what?" Wolfram cried, trying to pull away. "D-Don't~"
But he felt Yuuri's warm lips on the tip of his erection and slowly start to engulf the whole thing in his mouth. He could feel it pulsate in his mouth and moaned when Yuuri's lips skillfully blew and kissed his length.
"Aah~ Yuuri!" Wolfram cried, as he couldn't help but pull Yuuri in closer. "Aaah~" He felt Yuuri's mouth move faster and faster on his heated organ, which made him feel even hotter. "Nn~"
Wolfram writhed and moaned while being swallowed, the sensation of his first time overwhelming him. "Yuuri, stop! I'm going to cum~"
He felt Yuuri pull out and slip away.
He came out from under his wedding dress and wiped his mouth.
"Well, I don't want you to cum yet, so I'll stop from doing that," Yuuri then slowly removed his clothes and slipped Wolfram out of his dress. But before he could completely get it off...
"A-Ah~ Yuuri, stop playing with that~" Wolfram cried, when he started to nip and bite his nipples.
"Why? It's fine, right?" He sucked on them. "Since they're mine…"
"N-N-No, Yuuri~ No…"
"What a perverted display…" He chuckled, while Wolfram adjusted his legs at an angle that just barely uncovered his entire body. Yuuri got up and held him down firmly, with his large hands. He loomed over him with his broad chest, giving Wolfram the signal that he was going to do things to him that, as always, would send him to a frenzy.
Only this time…
"Wolfram, I have to cum..."
Wolfram opened his eyes-he didn't even notice when Yuuri got an erection...
"Mm..." He spread open his legs. "Then... come inside me..."
Wolfram could feel him coming closer.
"Sorry, Wolfram, it's just that when I saw you in your dress..."
"Mm..."
He felt his engorged organ start to push inside him.
"N-Naah~" Wolfram tried to relax when he came inside, but it was so hard-
"Wolfram..." Yuuri began to pant. "You're so adorable..."
Although Wolfram felt the pain at first, as soon as Yuuri found the spot that made him feel good, Wolfram's cries of pain turned to cries of pleasure...
"AaH! I need more~ more! More! More~! I have to have more~!" Wolfram cried, hungrily, as he was suddenly pulled up and made to ride him.
"Shh..." Yuuri lifted his chin. "I'll give it to you, so you don't need to beg..."
"A-Ah!" As Yuuri continued to thrust up, he could feel his heated erection grow bigger- big enough to the point where he was almost there...
"Mm..." Yuuri's movements grew faster and faster, each one almost tearing into his body and forcefully taking him. But it was so good, that it nearly made the both of them faint.
"Mm... Wolfram~" Yuuri moaned into his ear, when the both of them were just about to cum. He bit his ear and whispered, "My beautiful wife..."
"A-ah~!" Wolfram screamed, as Yuuri's words moved him and made him cum.
"Nn!" Yuuri's body quickly reacted to the sudden tightness in Wolfram's body and released inside him. Wolfram continued to pant, even when he was let go of, but Yuuri was nowhere near done.
"Wolfram..." He whispered, as he leaned in for another round...
~V~V~V~
Wolfram quickly ran to the bathroom toilet to puke. And with that one last trip to the bathroom, Wolfram came back out to collapse on the bed and sigh.
"Nothing came out..." He groaned, as he swayed in a feverish state.
"Haha, are you sure you're not pregnant?" Yuuri asked, as he crawled over to Wolfram's side.
"I'm not, you idiot! It's because you brought me to a place like this! I'm going to keep on having random fits and-"
Yuuri gently pulled him back to bed and laid him down.
"Aw, come on, Wolfram~" Yuuri patted his head. "Rest a bit, then, okay?"
"Mm..." Wolfram settled down under the warm blankets and Yuuri's cool touch to his head, and began slowly falling asleep.
But just right before losing consciousness, Wolfram smiled.
He smiled at all the small things that Yuuri had given him—His truthfulness, his idiotic smile, his cheerful voice. But most of all, his heart...
Wolfram rolled over and hugged Yuuri tightly in his arms.
",,,?" Yuuri opened his eyes and looked down.
Yuuri….I'm so happy just by staying by your side.
And no matter what, I promise to be by your side.
I want to be by your side—
And I realized today that it's the same for you….
Really, Yuuri, I think that you're the greatest man I'll ever love…
And with that, their night was finally over and the long-awaited holiday was finally here.
"Happy new years, Wolfram~" Yuuri whispered, before falling asleep.
"Mm~" Wolfram snuggled in closer. "Happy new years, Yuuri~"
