Ian

I woke up, staring down at her beautiful sleeping figure. Her hair was in knots and like a halo around her face and her arms and legs were sprawled across the bed. I stroked my hand across her perfect cheek, it had no marks or spots, but it still wasn't the body that attracted me. I loved her, the little thing in the back of her head. SHE was the beautiful one. I pushed a fly-away hair from in her eyes and patted it back in place. She smiled in her sleep and let out a small giggle which made me smile. She was my own personal angel, and I was in love with this person from heaven. I know that this sounds crazy, but I am grateful for the apocalypse because if not, my life would have been a mess, but this was my own cloud 9. Me and my wife-to-be in a hotel room alone, soon she would be mine. Forever.

She stirred in her sleep and her eyes fluttered open, revealing the silver glow in them, the smile that broke across her lips lit up the room and I could have sworn that my heart stopped when I looked into her face.

"Good morning gorgeous." I whispered and she groaned, smiling wider and closing her eyes again. She let out a whimper and frowned. It broke my heart to see her upset. "What's wrong darling?" I asked "Ah, yes. Dress shopping, well good luck today."

"You too, baby. I love you, you know. You don't need to worry about me running off with Burns." As soon as I saw them, I was going to punch the guys, but it did give me a little peace. "Yeah, I talked to Jared and Kyle." I sighed and she giggled at me, obviously finding me hilarious. I rolled my eyes at her but she didn't see because she was stretching, her arms high above her head. She suddenly jumped off of the bed, pulling me up with her.

"I love you too, come on, now let's get dressed before Mel comes and personally drags you away from me." I was in for a very long day; a day away from Wanda.

I threw on a pair of jeans and my cleanest t-shirt. I threw her some three-quarter lengths and a pink shirt; she put them on and pulled on her battered tennis shoes. I pulled her close into my chest and kissed the top of her hair before pulling away and bending down to collect our suitcase from under the king-size bed. I pulled it out and handed it to Wanda who had a pile of clothes in her arms. She threw the dirty laundry in the bag and sat on it while I zipped it up. I slung the duffle bag over my shoulder and we made our way over to Mel and Jared's room.

We lightly knocked on the door and someone shouted "Come in" at us, so I pushed on the door and it opened, revealing the girls huddled in one corner and the guys in the other. I walked over to Jared and Wanda went to sit on Mel's lap, who was sitting on the floor.

"Hi Ian, today we're going a bit further and everyone's going in the stores today. We're looking for the tuxes, food and the rings. The girls are getting the dresses. Once we're done today, we can go home." I was pleased by this idea, I think everyone was. I walked over to Wanda and pulled her up and into my chest. I held my hand out for the room key from Mel and she, Lily and Sunny slid them into my hand. I took ours from Wanda and pulled a small box from my pocket, pulling off the lid and taking out some contacts. I slid them in, grabbed Wanda's hand and pulled her off towards the front door.

"See you all by the van in 5 minutes." I called out and slipped out of the door. Running down towards the lobby and pulling Wanda with me. We slowed down and walked towards the front desk.

"Thank you very much Sally." Wanda said as we handed the lady behind the desk, Sally, the keys.

"You're very welcome Spins Strong Webs. I hope that you and your friends had a very enjoyable stay."

"We did. Thank you, but we really must be going. Goodbye Sally." I said, waving at the clueless lady and putting my arm around my love, we walked off towards the car park. "Hi guys." I climbed in and pulled Wanda in next to me. She curled into my chest and I kissed her hair and breathed in her sweet, floral smell and savored our last moments together today. She closed her eyes and stretched up towards me; she pushed her lips to mine and put her hands against my chest. We didn't break away until Jared parked the car and someone (Kyle) cleared their throat. I sighed when she pulled away and got out of the car to stand over by the girls.

"Bye sweetie, see you later." She said to me, with a pained look on her face. "Oh and don't forget to get me some cheetos." She piped up and I grinned, she loved cheetos. Such a strange girl.

Everyone had slipped in their contacts (I still had mine in) and Mel, Wanda, Lily and Sunny skipped off to the dress store. We watched them leave and we left for the suit shop. We went in and were met by a kind man at the door.

"Hello, my name is Moon Walker. What are you looking for today?" He asked.

"Hello. I am Flyer of Earth and my friend Orbits the Sun is getting married. We need some suits for my friends and I." Jared announced and my eyes widened. Wow he was good. Moon Walker motioned to a rack of black and blue suits and we all followed him, picking out our favourites. I liked a simple black suit with a long, black tie. Jared and the rest of the guys picked out black suits with small bow ties. I thanked Moon Walker and he wrapped them in garment bags, handing them to us and we took them out of the store. We carried our outfits towards the van and hunted down another shop. We found a store called The Buttercup Bakery; they sold cakes and the food. The food was delicious and we were certain that this was the place we wanted. We chose a small wedding cake, some cupcakes and some found some ingredients to make loads of simple sandwiches. It wasn't much of a wedding meal, but it wasn't much of a wedding so, ah well.

I spent the whole day in a trance, trying on clothes without really noticing it, eating without tasting and talking without knowing what I was saying. The whole day I spent worrying about Wanda. It was a relief to finally see her face at the end of the day. She ran up to me and leaped into my waiting arms. I grabbed her and held her close to my chest. We all piled into the van and truck and Jared started the truck, and Wanda and I settled down for a long journey home.

So, what do you think? Please keep reading and writing reviews! Thanks to all of you.
