Ivan's POV
The next morning the Doctor was jumping like a 5-year-old.
"Good morning, guess what, I teleported from the sofa to the bed."
I laughed
"I carried you to your room Doctor"
"You just ruin the fun. Anyways I'll be waiting downstairs for breakfast."
He left the room I turned around Alfred was still sleeping I notice the deep scratches on his back. I decided to take a shower when I enter the water my back ached. Once I got out to changed I went to wake up Alfred.
"Good morning Fredka."
"Good morning Ivan." He responded
"Go take a shower the Doctor and I will be waiting for you in the kitchen."
"Ivan"
"Yes"
"I love you."
"I love you too my Sunflower."
When I got downstairs the Doctor was baking some blueberry, chocolate, and banana muffins.
"They're ready in a couple of minutes. Where's Alfred?" The Doctor asked
"He's in the shower."
"Ready for today's schedule." The Doctor cheered
"Yeah"
"So how was the date?"
"Enjoyable"
"Is that muffin I smell." Alfred came down. He was wearing a red sweater, denim jeans, and black converse.
"Good morning, Doctor."
"Morning, both of you seem suspicious."
I looked at Alfred and wink at him.
"Doctor, will you be the best man?" I asked him
"It's my honor." He smiled
We headed to J.Crew Ludlow Shop to try out some suits. The Doctor choose a gray peak lapel tuxedo with a black tie for Alfred, black notch lapel tuxedo with a black tie for me, and he got himself a black shawl collar tuxedo with a black bow tie. Next, we went to see the ballroom the party is going to be held at. It was a victorian ballroom there was enough space for all the tables and the dance. We headed back to Alfred's home to make the invitations.
I had a pencil and a paper to write down the names. For now, I had Arthur Kirkland, Francis Bonnefoy, Ludwig and Gilbert Weillschmidt, Feliciano and Lovino Vargas.
"What about Romano's boyfriend, Antonio," I asked him
"Sure, don't forget my brother Matt."
"Yào Wáng?"
It was a terrible mistake to mention his name. Alfred gets angry, he still gets the idea I'm going to leave him for Yào.
"Why?" He demanded
"He's my friend."
"Are you sure." He said louder this time
"Alfred, relax he is just Ivan's friend." The Doctor came behind Alfred, just in case he get out of hand.
"Alright, he will sit in the back." He stormed out of the room.
"Should I be going after him?"
"No, he might get violent and I don't want to see my friends beating each other."
I had to do everything myself and the Doctor help me send the invitations. It was an uncomfortable day. When we return it was 9:18 p.m, I enter our room. Alfred was staring out the window he probably watch us coming inside.
"Did you went to see him?"
"Yes, to give him the invitation and the Doctor was with me. If it makes you feel better."
"Ivan, I been thinking about the wedding." Alfred turned around and he was furious.
"Alfred, you're scaring me." I was backing up to the door.
"You lied about the Doctor being with you!"
"What?"
"Don't play stupid with me." He pushed me to the floor.
"I don't know what you mean." I cried
"Then explain me this pictures."
He gave me some pictures of Yào and me kissing and the other one was both of us in bed.
"That's not me, I swear."
He formed his hand into a fist. I closed my eyes waiting for the punch. After a few seconds, I opened my eyes. The Doctor was holding Alfred down.
"Ivan get out of here."
I was crying in the hallway. I was hearing the groans of the Doctor and every punch or kick Alfred swing. He kept his promise he didn't let anyone hurt me.
"You shouldn't stick your nose where it doesn't belong!" Alfred shouted
"Alfred, you must belie- UGH! " The Doctor sounded feeble.
I couldn't bare listening to the Doctor's pain. I burst into the room, the Doctor was beaten badly.
"If you won't believe me, then the wedding is off."
I ran to the Doctor picked him up and headed to the Tardis. I didn't look back.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault Doctor."
"Don't say that, I promised you I wouldn't let anyone hurt you."
It has been weeks since the fight. Alfred usually calls me when he is drunk.
'Baby, come back I've missed you.'
'Vanya, please come back. Please forgive me.'
I started to ignore the voicemail he left. The Doctor's bruises were gone by now.
"You should talk to him and try to solve the problem."
"Why when he won't believe me."
"Trust me, I married the women who wanted to kill me."
"What, you're married."
"Couple of times throughout history. I accidentally married Queen Elizabeth 1st."
"You're full of surprises Doctor."
"Yes, do you want to visit Alfred."
"Yeah"
I was about to knocked on the front door then I heard two voices. Britain?
"You git, these are fake."
"How do you know?"
"Every photoshop pictures has minor mistakes. Anyway, who send them to you?"
"Someone slide it under the door in a envelope. And I did terrible things afterwards to Ivan and the Doctor."
I finally knocked and Britain opens the door.
"Hey, Russia wait a second. Wanker come here and solve your own problems. Good luck Russia." He left the Doctor was hiding from him. Last time they met Iggy couldn't accept his existence.
"Ivan, I'm so sorry for accusing you cheating with Yào." He wouldn't let go of me. I was getting squished by his arms.
"It is alright my Sunflower."
"Where's the Doctor I need to apologize to him."
"Here I am, I was hiding from your friend."
Alfred quickly went up to him and hug him.
"I'm so sorry Doctor."
"Don't worry about it I forgive you."
We got everything in order the wedding will be in two weeks. Alfred would not stop apologizing. It has been a fantastic time the Doctor told us more stories about his past.
"I-Ivan Braginsky, take you, Alfred F. Jones to be my husband. I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health. I will love you and honor you all the days of my life. With this ring, I give you my heart, I promise you from this day forward, you shall not walk alone, may my heart be your shelter, and my arms be your home." I slide the golden ring onto Alfred's finger.
"You are the love of my life. You are the missing half that made me whole. And today I ask you to be my husband, my partner, my strength for the rest of my life. I promise our life will be filled with laughter and love. And we will share our joy with our family and friends. I will be loyal to you, I will love and adore you, I will help you achieve your dreams, and to pursue your heart desires. I will laugh with you and cry with you. I will strive to bring out the best in you and to always see the best in you. For you, I will be the best possible version of myself as your husband every day. With this ring, I give you my heart, I promise you from this day forward, you shall not walk alone, may my heart be your shelter, and my arms be your home." He gently slides the ring to my finger.
"Ivan Braginsky do you take Alfred F. Jones as your husband?" The Priest asked me.
"I do."
"Alfred F. Jones do you take Ivan Braginsky as your husband?"
"I do."
"Inasmuch as Ivan Braginsky and Alfred F. Jones have exchanged vows of love and fidelity in the presence of God and the church, I now pronounce that they are bound to one another as husbands in a holy covenant, as long as they both shall live Amen. You may now kiss."
Our first kiss as husbands was very emotional, some cheered, cry, or clapping very hard. We exit the church it was sunny and the white birds were chirping outside. Iggy and Francis were throwing pink and white rose petals. We took pictures with everyone. Afterward, I had to separate the Doctor from Britain, they were arguing about his existence again.
"Congratulations boys, I order a carriage to take you to the ballroom." The Doctor told us
"What about you?" Alfred asked
"I'm taking the Tardis."
We enter a Cinderella wedding carriage. On the way to the party, Alfred wouldn't stop kissing me.
"Alfred, can you wait 'till night."
"No"
"There are children watching."
"Fine, but I call top."
When we enter the guest were waiting outside the building. How were they here before us?
"There you are boys, I took everyone in the Tardis. Finally, Britain stops arguing with me. We should get inside and let the party begin."
We enter the ballroom it was decorated with sunflowers and red roses. The tables were covered in red lace. As I passed by the guests I over heard things. Sweden and Finland are going to buy Sealand from Ebay. Matt and Prussia were flirting, Italy and Germany blushing. You can tell they were holding hands beneath the table. Romano was screaming at Spain as usual. Australia was putting a spider into Britain's coat. Hungary and Austria were a happy married couple. Oh, crap he is walking towards me.
"Russia,-"
"Please call me Ivan."
"Ivan, if I may replace the pianist he's horrible."
"Umm...Sure."
Good, he was gone now I feel bad, Austria, yelled at the pianist. The music sounded better when Austria plays the piano. I suddenly feel so squished I turned around. It was my older sister Ukraine.
"Congratulations!!! Little brother, I'm so happy you got married to the man you love."
This was the happiest Ukraine been in a long time. Everyone around me was having a good time. I've never been a room full of joy. It was time the best man says his speech, we all sat on a long table. The Doctor stood up.
"Hello, I'm the Doctor, the best man of these fine gentlemen. It was only a couple of months since I met Ivan passed out near my Tardis..."
He really embarrassed us but at least he made everyone laughed. He talked about the trip when we visited the crystal planet. Then he went on how Alfred use to come to him and tried to ask me out.
"...Which makes this a day extremely important. I wish you boys have a happy married life."
After the last speech, we started to do normal wedding stuff. People started to give me advices.
"Ivan, I wish you good luck. I know Alfred will cross the line. You just come to me, if that wanker is making you do things. I have some spells I like to work out."
"Um..Thanks, Britain."
"Ivan, congratulations I hope you'll be happy with Alfred."
As Yào was talking to me Alfred came behind me you can see fire in his eyes.
"Thank you, Yào."
I hugged Yào for a minute or two just to mess with Alfred. Alfred grab my arm tightly.
"You aren't supposed to talk to him."
"Oh, Alfred stop being a party pooper it was just a hug." Francis came behind us which made us jumped.
"Look at the bright side you're losing your virginity tonight."
Alfred turned bright red, either he was embarrassed or about to slit Francis' throat. He was sweating so I joined Francis.
"That explains the deep scratches from that night."
"Honhonhon. Is he a screa-"
"Shut up!"
"Alfred, clam down we were only joking."
It was time for the last dance. Austria started to play the Sleeping Beauty Waltz by Tchaikovsky. I place my right hand on Alfred's shoulder, holding his hand with the other. He had his left hand on my waist and our foreheads were touching. He pulls me tighter to him it felt like a fairytale. As we were dancing there was a huge bang. Alfred's grip was loosening, suddenly blood was dripping from his hair.
"Alfred?...ALFRED!!!!"
