The wedding was scheduled for a few days after Casper had called. That day everyone was nervous about it. Some because they were about to make one of the biggest changes in their life. Then there were those who were afraid about others interfering with their family's soon to be changed life. Ebony baked the cake for the wedding and decorated it in all it's glory. The colors were that of white and gold. To represent that of the heavenly gift that had been granted kindly. Also to represent the golden moment in time that would always remain for Casper and Kat. Rin was dressed in a beautiful purple and black dress to be the flower girl. Azriel was dressed in a white tux with a gold and blue tie. These were the chosen colors for the wedding that Kat and Casper had decided upon equally, Purple and White. All of the men were to wear white and the ladies to wear something with purple. Ebony placed the cake on the table at the hall where everyone would be dining at later and sighed with relief. "I hope this is good enough...! I really tried hard to get this to be done on time. Oohh... maybe I could add.." Ebony started to speak as Rin cut her off.
"Mom, It looks FINE! If you added anymore it'd look way too crowded. Leave it as it is, nice and simple." Smiling Rin hugged her mother as she reassured her of how everything looked.
"Well are all of the tables set up??" Panicking Ebony looked around at the tables to make sure they were all decorated well.
"Yes, Mom. Though I don't think that's going to matter with Azriel's uncles and father around..!" Lightly she laughed and placed her arms behind her back. As Ebony thought about that the more she frowned and slapped her forehead. Of course they'd ruin how nice it looked...! Then again, if she could talk to Fatso and convince him to get his brother's to behave...then it could work! Sure it was a shot in the dark but, it was darned worth a try at the very least!
Azriel threw open the doors as he entered into the room and laughed. "Everyone's ready at the church! C'mon, quick, quick...! They're just waiting on us to be there, we can make it if we... hur...ry..." His voice trailed out of the excitement as he stared at Rin. His golden eyes widened as he just took in her beauty. Never had he imagined her to look so beautiful in a dress. The boys heart skipped a beat as he stepped closer and closer to her. "I... you... YOU look...stunning!" Gently he swallowed as he gently took her hands into his. Batting her eyes at him Rin decided to play out that moment and teased the boy. Azriel's eyes just followed her with every move that she had made. Smirking she walked all around him as she eyed him over herself. He sure looked dashing in that tux he was wearing! Oh how she wanted to hug onto him tightly at that moment but, she opted to tease him instead.
"Well, It would be kind of nice to have someone hold open the door for a couple of ladies wouldn't you say...?" Rin giggled as she batted her eyelashes at him again. Gently she ran a finger under his chin, which nearly caused the poor guy to melt into a puddle. Azriel's cheeks became flushed as he laughed and scrambled over to the door. Quickly he opened it and propped himself against it.
"Ladies, first...!" Trying to be smooth he just allowed Rin to play with him all she wanted. When the two had exited he followed quickly behind. While they were on their way Kat slowly finished getting prepared for the ceremony. That day she was dressed in her mothers wedding dress something she dreamed of doing since she was a little girl. The earrings she wore were a beautiful blue color that glistened like that of the sea when the sun shimmered across the waves. She borrowed Melle's necklace that she had worn on hers and Stinkie's wedding day. It suited her dress perfectly too. To complete the outfit her father had bought a brand new bracelet with an inscription on the inside. Proudly she placed it on as she quietly wiped the tears from her eyes. It was a happy yet sad day for her at the same time. Today she gained a new life but would be losing an old one, one that she cherished so deeply. Her heart was torn in two directions, but she would not falter. She planned on doing this right and she was going to go through with it all the way until the end.
"Don't you worry, Kat! Everything is going to be just fine. You watch...!" Gently hugging onto Kat, Melle smiled and reassured her. "I can hardly wait to see you two get married finally. Y'know Stinkie and I always used to discuss about if you two would ever get the chance.." Lightly Melle smiled and stepped back to take a seat. Her ribs were still decidedly sore but she pushed herself to be well enough for Kat and Casper's wedding day.
"Really...? Lemme guess he complained how they'd have to do everything themselves then right...?" Kat laughed and grinned up at Melle. Ghastly also raised an eyebrow out of curiosity at this question.
"Well, yeah... but Boys will be Boys...!" Lightly they three girls laughed together as Fiona entered into the room. Fiona stared at Melle and watched her as she winced in pain. A small smirk formed on her face as she was at least pleased with the fact Melle remained in some form of pain. Unknown to those there Stinkie watched over Melle the whole time while she was there and helped Kat out. After all, Fiona was there as well for this occasion. The last thing he wanted was for her to attack his wife again! There was no way she'd ruin this special day.
'What da Hee-Haw does she mean by dat...? She implyin' dat we's can't take care o'ourselves?!' Smirking himself now, Stinkie crossed his arms as he floated invisibly in the back. 'Okay, so she's right!' Silently he chuckled to himself.
"Okay!! We're here!! Is everybody ready...??" Ebony quickly walked into the room. Close behind her was Rin who smiled as she entered. Right on her tail was poor Azriel who was still distracted and caught in a day dream as he followed her into the room, only to have his face smashed in with the door!
"OOOF!!" The boy stumbled back and grabbed his nose in pain. He was luckily caught by his father who rushed to his aid and laughed at him.
"If yer gonna spy on dem, I'd suggest dat y'go invisible foist..!" Stinkie whispered and winked at his boy, helping him to his feet.
"Oooh!! I'm so sorry Ozzie!! Are you okay...?? Hmn, You know you can't go in here...! Hehe, Don't worry I'll see you out there okay...??" Rin giggled and kissed his cheek. "Though that served you right!" Turning away she grinned and stuck out her tongue at him. Azriel just rubbed his head and laughed as he felt himself blush deeper. Laughing at him Stinkie elbowed him in his side as they headed for their places they were supposed to be. Fiona placed herself down on one of the benches near the front and gazed up at the alter. Fatso sat not too far away from her so that he could also better keep an eye on her. Though his attention would soon be distracted by that of Ebony who quickly joined him with a giggle. The two smiled warmly at each other and held hands as they waited for the ceremony to begin. From time to time Fiona looked at the two then away as jealousy seized at her again. Why was it that everyone else but her was able to find happiness? Why couldn't she...? It all seemed just so unfair!
Casper waited at the alter as he straightened out his suit nervously and grinned at his Uncle Stretch who was his best man. Stretch just smirked at his nephew and winked a little. "It's gonna be alright short sheet... I have faith in ya's dat you'll do good. You always treated us right! Jus' look at it as preparation 'eh...?" Doing his best to help Stretch placed his hand on his shoulder and patted it. Hey, he figured he could be nice to the shorty on a day like today! It'd just mean double the trouble when he turned back into a ghost! The Uncle snickered to himself as there'd be plenty of time to plot how to be repaid! Casper laughed and smiled at his Uncle as he rolled his eyes.
"Thanks, Uncle Stretch..." Shaking his head Casper looked nervously to the doors as he waited for them to open. Taking in a deep breath he rocked back and forth on his heels. 'Finally it's the big day! I've waited for so long that it almost feels like a dream. I wonder if Kat feels the same way...? We've had years of preparation and time to get the jitters out, still I'm so nervous about the whole thing..! I guess I can hardly believe that it's finally here, finally real.. I wonder who's going to cry more, Her or I?' These were just some of the thoughts that raced through Casper's mind as he waited for the moment to start. Soon his prayers would be answered as the music started. The doors opened to reveal Kat in all of her splendor. With tears in her eyes she looked over to her father who smiled warmly at her. Slowly he lead her down the isle to pass her off to Casper. Tightly she squeezed her fathers arm as she looked up at him.
In front of them had been Azriel who carried the rings while Rin tossed out some flowers. Sure they were older than the traditional customs called for, but, this wasn't a very traditional family either despite some customs. When everyone reached the alter they faced each other how they were supposed to with Melle as the Matron of Honor. The Minister happily read from his book and as he neared the end he paused to ask them, "Is there a anything that either of you would like to say to the other...?" Casper thought back on Melle and Stinkie's wedding and nodded.
"Yes sir." He stated firmly as he nervously started to speak, " Kat I promise you from this day forward I will give you whatever it is you need. I'll be there for you totally devoted to you until you take your last breath. From the first day I saw you on the TV my stomach tingled. I knew you were someone special and someone I wanted to be near for the rest of my after life..er.. heh, and now life. Just tell me whatever it is that you wish for and I'll do what I can to make your dreams come true..."
"...Casper..." Softly her voice trailed off as she gazed deeply and lovingly into his eyes. "I ... I never would've imagined myself in this position ever when I first met you. Though as the years went by and you were always there for me.. I knew there was a connection something that I'd been missing. Something I needed, someone who I wanted to spend the rest of my life with as well. I'm so glad I found you..and... You've already made my dreams come true... I hope that wasn't too corny.." Lightly Kat laughed as did Casper. The couple then turned to the Minister as they smiled widely and waited.
"Then now, Do you Casper McFadden take Kathleen Harvey to be your Wife..?" He asked.
"I Do." Casper smiled warmly at Kat as he touched her cheek.
"And do you Kathleen Harvey take Casper McFadden to be your husband..?" He followed up.
"I Do!" Laughing lightly Kat popped in place a little.
"Then I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride!" As the Minister finished the two of them exchanged the rings on each others fingers. It wasn't but a second later that Casper pulled Kat into his arms and kissed her just as deeply and romantically as he could. Everyone who had been in the church at that moment clapped and cheered for the brand new happy couple. Melle placed herself next to Stinkie and hugged onto him tightly as the two remembered their wedding day as well. Fiona quietly excused herself form the celebrating bunch as she placed herself on the steps of the church. Lightly she frowned as she buried her face into her hands.
It didn't take long for everyone to make it outside and to the limos where they poured into them to go party of course! Fiona of course followed along with it though she appeared less than happy. Stinkie was happy to have noted this and figured it was good to see her feeling left out and ignored. At least she'd be getting a little of what she dished out! At the dining hall the Trio piled out of the Limo like they'd been starving to death. Kat and Casper however had the upper hand this time! They called in their secret weapons to keep the Trio from ruining the buffet table as it only just started!
"HEY GIMMIE DAT IT'S MINE!" Stretch howled at his brothers.
"NUH-UH, IT'S MOINE, I SAWR IT FOIST!!" Stinkie grabbed a hold of one of the edges of the plate.
"NO-WAY! MY SWEETY MADE DEM SWEETS FUH ME!!" Fatso growled as the three of them tugged the dish in the direction of each other. There was NO way that Fatso was going to let them have those cream filled donuts, nuh-uh, they were his!
"IF YOU'S TWO DUN LEGGO, I'LL CREAM YA'S MYSELF!!" Stretch growled as the three of them butted their heads together.
"Oh Boys...!" Ghastly called for their attention in which they slowly looked. "Why dontcha come have some fun eating with us..?" The girls teased as they waved around a few cans of whipped cream and winked. They did their most sexiest of poses they could think up.
"Yeah-yeah, inna second..!! " Stretch pulled on the dish and grunted.
"AW, NAW Y'DON'T! DEM IS MOINE..!! GIMMIE A FEW!" Stinkie tugged back at the dish.
"HOLD ON!!" Grunting himself Fatso pulled back really hard. The girls stared at the boys in awe at first unable to believe they cared more about the donuts than them! Soon their eyes narrowed as they grabbed their next form of weapon, the hand-held vacuum cleaners.
"Oh... really?" Melle narrowed her eyes with the other girls as they flipped the switches on and sucked the boys up inside of them. "We'll hold on alright!"
"MMHM, You can take ALL the Time you need now... t'think about what you boys just did wrong!" Ebony hissed as she placed a hand on her hip. Ghastly caught the donuts with her tail and placed them back on the table. The Trio could be heard making a fuss as they tumbled and squirmed around inside of the vacuum cleaners. Later they were released when the cake had been cut and divided up into equal shares. Toasts were made and cheers were given as everyone dug into the cake and food. The Trio downed their pieces rather quickly though when they finished they noticed that their girls weren't really talking to them, let alone giving them any eye contact. It was then they knew they were pissed for sure.
"Great de girls haven't talked to us since dey let us out!" Stretched frowned and glared as he watched them eat.
"Yea'... an' we all know who's fault DAT IS...!" Stinkie added as he eyed down Stretch with a very grumpy look placed on his face.
"YEAH!" Fatso glared at Stinkie as they started a low rumbled growl at one another. In no time the three of them were at it again. The Trio fumbled around as they bashed one another's face in sending food flying everywhere. They even knocked over tables and chairs as they rumbled and fought over who's fault it was. Fiona stared at the boys with a raised eyebrow as she slowly remembered that's how they acted whenever they argued. She'd almost forgotten about that part of them that annoyed her just so much. It'd been awhile since she watched their childish antics like this. Normally Kat would be annoyed by this, but, actually it allowed her to enjoy everything just that much more. It just wouldn't have been the same if they acted any different! Lightly she smiled and laughed along with Melle who giggled and shoved some cake into Stinkie's face. When that happened the Trio blinked then grinned as everyone joined in for the food fight. It was the BEST time they had together in a long, long time. Even Dr. Harvey indulged himself in some food fighting for the party.
After the food fight finished everyone indulged themselves in dancing. Kat and Casper had their main slow dance in which they dreamed would go on forever. They forgot all about the world around them as they gazed only into each others eyes as they had that day at the Halloween dance. Romantically he twirled her around and dipped her as they drowned themselves in the music that surrounded them. The rest of the family just stared on as the two danced. Pretty much everyone felt lovey dovey there right about then as they witnessed the two in their happiness. Though some tried to hide it while others flaunted it around like nobody's business. Both Azriel and Rin shared a dance at the party as it was tradition to do it. With much ease the two danced across the floor. Azriel blushed deeply as he looked deep into Rin's eyes, there was just something that sparkled about them today that he hadn't noticed before. Gently he bit his lower lip as he tried to think up something to talk about with her. Rin just giggled to herself during this time finding herself to be flattered by his silence.
When the free dance opened everyone joined in even Melle and Stinkie. With every move he made he was careful with how he touched her. Gently he placed his forehead against hers and smiled warmly to her as he closed his eyes. Ghastly and Stretch happily shared a dance themselves being reminded easily why they loved one another so much. Fatso happily danced with Ebony and blushed as he melted from the first feelings of being deep in love that he'd ever experienced. When the time came everyone stepped back from the dance floor as they allowed for the final dance. Kat and Dr. Harvey's turn to dance finally came as they stepped onto the floor. The two exchanged happy and yet saddened smiles as they started their dance. "Your Mother would be so proud of you right now. She'd tell you herself if she could..I'm sure.." Dr. Harvey whispered to her as they embraced tightly with their dance. Kat smiled widely though her eyes filled with tears. Softly Dr. Harvey stroked the back of her head and took in the moment as he soon after spun her around. "Don't be sad...I'll always be there.. watching.." Smiling he winked and kissed her forehead.
"Mmhm... I...I know you will... Thank you... for.. everything.." Kat whispered as she hugged onto him tightly as they finished up the dance. "You... You'll always be in my heart too.. I'll never forget what you taught me. I love you, Dad.." Sniffing she wiped the tears from her eyes as everyone gathered around and stared at Dr. Harvey. From behind him a light seemingly shined out of nowhere.
"I... I guess it's time for me to go... I .. I'll miss you. All of you..." Dr. Harvey hugged Melle tightly as well as the Trio who had started weeping like babies.
"We're gonna miss you too, Doc!" Stretch whimpered out as he clung tightly to the doctor. "I Don't wanna let you go...!"
"Y-YEAH! Y-Yer supposed ta help us out wit our therapy!! Who's gonna do dat wit us now??" Stinkie whined as he clung to the Doctors free arm.
"YER DA ONLY ONE DAT UNDUHSTOOD ME!!" Fatso hugged onto him from behind as they all bawled and never wanted the moment to end.
"Aawww, Fella's... Hey... ! Don't cry about it... It's... It's gonna be alright. You'll see...! I'm not the only one who's a therapist for ghosts...! There'll be others.." Dr. Harvey smiled warmly at them. Turning to Casper he sighed and hugged onto him next. "It was an honor and a pleasure to meet you Casper. I'll be sure to tell your father all of the wonderful things you've done for your family and for mine. Now chin up... and never stop smiling! It's up to you now to continue my family tree..!" He winked as he started for the light.
"Heheheh... I.. I'll remember that Dr. Harvey. Thank you, It's been an honor...sir." Casper tightly pulled Kat close as everyone witnessed Dr. Harvey disappear into the light where he was visibly greeted by Amelia. Kat covered her mouth and waved to them until they were completely out of sight. When everything had been said and done the party ended for the couple and family. The Trio traveled off to have Happy Hour in honor of Dr. Harvey, while Kat and Casper made their way home to get rather close. Melle and the others also made their way home to do their own things and leave the love-birds alone. As everyone separated and went their own ways this placed Fiona in a rather good position. An evil grin formed on her face as she watched everyone split up. Divide and concur is what she had always heard!
