Valentines and other holidays

by End of Grace

I know its new year, but this has been gnawing away at me to write it. So Enjoy!

Happy Halloween!

Bunnymund arrived late at the pole that evening at the begin of October. he had been in his warren for most of the day, making sure that the eggs were growing well and were all cuddled down for the night. in a few weeks he will have to start painting them, so that meant less time at the pole and even more time away from North, who was entering his busy season. This would be their second Christmas together. The last one had certainly tried both their limits and had almost broken up over it, but the making up had certainly been worth it. Now North made certain that he finished at six on the dot, and the yetis knew better then to disturb him with anything toy related unless it was a serious emergency. He made his way thought the globe room to North's kitchen when he heard his lover cheer for joy at something . He walked in to the kitchen to find North hugging tightly Jack Skellington, the leader of Halloween. The skellington face was red as North kissed both cheek bones.

"My friend I would be most honoured!" said North as he placed Jack down. "Yes I will gladly do this for you!"

"Oh thank you so much Sandy Claws. And remember you must not tell a soul!" said Jack gleefully.

"Tell a soul what?" asked Bunnymund as he walked in and made a beeline to North's side. He knew that Jack was over his Christmas obsession, but that still didn't mean he felt comfortable with him fawning over North as he did.

"Bunny, welcome home" smiled North kissing his love gently on the lips. "Jack has asked me for a very important favour for Halloween"

"Oh really, what kind of favour?" asked Bunnymund his voice dripping in sarcasm. When every Jack Skellington asked for favours, it usually meant a whole heap of trouble for them. Jack held his hands up in defence.

"A good favour I promise but it's a complete secret at the moment. No one is suppose to know except the people involved"

Bunnymund raised an eyebrow and looked from Jack to a nervous looking North, who was trying not to make eye contact. "I guess it's ok as long as no one gets hurt" he said slowly.

"Of course no one will!" snapped Jack who was well aware of his track "Sandy Claws getting hurt because of him" record.

"Bunny, you know that Jack would never hurt anyone on purpose. This is truly a good thing and you will find out sooner than later. You best go Jack, you do not have a lot of time to prepare for this as well as Halloween"

"Of course Sandy Claws, and thank you again. I'll send more details as they develop. Mr Bunnymund" said Jack as he left. Bunny turned to North and started tapping his foot, North laughed nervously as he turned to the side and picked up a plate.

"Cookie?"

"Nice try North! Now what was that all about?"

"Ah...Just as we said, it surprise"

"For who?"

"Everyone...well no not everyone but everyone will be there! Hopefully...maybe."

"You know as well as I do, how I feel about you doing favours or anything else for that bonehead"

"Bunny everyone makes mistakes, Jack Skellington just made some really bad ones is all. Does not make him a bad guy"

"Sure it doesn't. I mean it's not like every time you get involved you almost get killed or anything"

"Ok that was mean, truthfully but mean" said North as he pulled Bunnymund in to a hug, kissing him on the forehead down to his cheek and neck. "I promise you Bunny, this is a really good thing. And since we are all immortals, we get so few surprises would this really hurt?"

Bunny shook his head and sighed as he rested his head on North's shoulder. "If I asked you not to do this, would you?"

"You know I would. But would you really ask me that?"

Bunny didn't say anything but buried his face deeper in to North's neck. He wanted to say no, but the jealous and worried part of him argued that this was not a good idea.

Two weeks later, Bunny was in his house mixing up paints, when there was a knock on his door. Cleaning his paws on a cloth as he reached and opened the door. He was shocked to see Lock, Shock and Barrel there. Supposedly they had really been good on their probation, and really turned they act around. Still Bunny was dubious, there ankle-bitters weren't going to change their spots anytime soon.

"Mr. Bunnymund?" said Lock, a bit worried about the glare they were getting from the six foot rabbit.

"Yes? What do you three troublemakers want?"

"This is for you, please respond as soon as possible" said Shock as she handed him a black envelope. Bunny took the letter and looked at it, it had his name on it and was sealed down with waxed. He looked down at the three small monsters who were waiting uneasily.

"Thank you, I'll do just that!"

There was a collective sigh from the three kids as they turned away only for Barrel to quickly turn round and bowed.

"Thank you for your time and not throwing anything at us" he quickly turned back and ran after the others. Bunny shook his head as he closed his door, still holding the letter in his paw. Breaking the seal and opening it, he pulled out a gray card decorated in spider webs.

Dear

Your cordially invited to the surprise wedding of

Jack Skellington and Sally Ragdoll

On the 30th of October, four o'clock.

You may bring a guest. Presents are optional but welcome.

Please respond card back A.S.A.P to the mayor of Halloween town.

So this was the surprise North and Jack were organising. Jack's wedding. He was genially happy for Jack and Sally. Sally had seemed like a nice gal when they met and she was sure to keep Jack on track and away from North. Bunny searched his memory of any other weddings involving holidays and sprites and found he could not think of any. It said presents were optional but you really couldn't go to a party empty handed. Maybe North would have a couple of ideas, he'll ask him tonight, but first to reply. He quickly signed the response card only to jump back when it magically changed in to a bat and flew off. He spent the rest of the afternoon as planned and then just before six, went to the pole. North was holding a very long scroll of parchment, and talking to three yetis when Bunny arrived.

"Now remember, everything one the list! If we don't have it, make it, borrow it or even buy it! Nothing is to be left out!" said North rolling up the scroll and handing it to one of the yetis as they left.

"Looks like this wedding has got you busy Mate, Not too much so I hope that you can't spend a little time with me" said Bunnymund as he hugged North from behind, rubbing himself suggestively

"For you there is all the time in the world love. Tell me, did Lock, Shock and Barrel behave themselves?" asked North as he turned around to face Bunny.

"Yes surprisingly enough. Even polite too"

"Good. It was my idea to send them, so they could prove that they can be good. Sadly I wish that could be said of other leaders. Thanksgiving, Lucky and a few others throw rocks at them"

"You can't fully blame them North, Lock, Shock and Barrel did go around kidnapping the other holidays and trashing their realms"

"Still they are children who have learnt lesson but I guess you are right!"

North pulled Bunny in for a long sentential kiss when Jack Frost came running in, trails of snow and ice following behind him.

"Hey North...oops! Sorry!" he laughed as North and Bunny broke away and looked annoyed at the young guardian.

"Jack, what have I told you about bringing ice in with you?" said North looking at the floor. "You know how the yeti's feel about that"

"I'll clean it up right away but you've got to answer my question first!" said Jack who was bouncing on his feet.

"Alright, what is it?" asked North smiling at the excited youth. "Have you filled in your response?"

"I WILL if your answer my question! Can I invite Jamie to come with me?"

North and Bunny's eyes quickly met and an even quicker discussion passed between them. They had both been concerned about Jack's and Jamie's relationship, but felt it was not they place to get involved. Jamie was still a young child that believed in Jack and that was enough for both of them for now. Bunny nodded and North gave Jack a warm smile.

"I don't think it would be a problem Jack, as long as Jamie's mother doesn't mind!"

"YES! I'll go tell him and fill in the card once he's got permission" said Jack as he hugged both North and Bunny before flying back down the corridor.

"JACK! THE FLOOR!" shouted North after the boy.

"I'll do it when I get back" shouted Jack as he took off.

"Let him go North, he would have only made a bigger mess, if you made him stay" laughed Bunny at the frustrated face on North.

"HA! I let you explain it to the yetis then! I was thinking, wedding present for Sally, Jack says she is in need of new sewing machine. What do you think?"

"I was thinking something along the lines of...bone china?" smirked Bunnymund.

"Well yes, we could get...Not funny Bunnymund honestly!"

"Sorry, couldn't resist Mate! Sure a sewing machine for Sally. Speaking of the doll, I take it it's a surprise wedding because Sally doesn't know about it?"

"That's right"

"Then what happens if she says no, and leaves Skellington at the altar?"

"Not going to happen! Sally has been dropping hints for months, planning it all in scrapbook that she thinks Jack doesn't know about. Jack found it and had made it her dream wedding."

"Alright if you say so. So how are we getting there? Snow globe or tunnels?"

North's eyebrows raised and his jaw dropped for a moment before turning fully to Bunny, rubbing his hands.

"North...we are going together right?"

"Um...no we're not. Jack Skellington needs me there before the ceremony. So you bring the boys with you though the tunnels"

"What are you his bloody wet nurse?" snapped Bunnymund angrily.

"Jack has asked me for my help Bunny" said North soothingly as he rubbed Bunny's shoulders.

"Alright fine, I'm at least going to be seating with you..."he stopped when North shook his head "Am I going to see you at all that day?"

"Oh you will see me! I have to make speech as well but we will not dine together either, but as soon as formalities are over I'm yours" North promised hoping that was enough to ease his lover.

"I better get a dance North! So make sure they play good music at this thing"

The big day arrived, and Bunny woke up to an empty bed. It was still really early, and he was in no mood to get up just yet. He had gone to bed in a foul mood as North insisted on staying up and double checking his list for the wedding. In a few hours he had to go and pick up Jamie and Sandy and Tooth would arrive at the pole. They decided to go together as a group, that way they could keep an eye on Jamie and make sure nothing happened to him, not that Jack Frost would let it.

He rolled around for a few hours before getting up and heading towards the bathroom. He told himself that he had to make an impression, as both as a guardian and the Easter Bunny. He rubbed a special oil in to his fur and brushed it in, bringing out the gloss of his fur. He took a small cloth and polished North's gold ring around his neck. He looked at the ring and kissed it, he did truly love North. If he was being honest with his self, he was jealous of Jack Skellington. He was about to get hitched to his girl while he and North had only exchanged tokens. Maybe he was getting ahead of himself and letting his jealously get the better of him, he and North had only been together two years and Jack and Sally had been together a lot longer. Giving himself a quick look over and a nod, he went to wake up Jack and go and get Jamie.

"JACK FROST! GET BACK HERE AND PUT ONE THESE DAMNED SHOES!" yelled Bunnymund holding a pair of black shoes up. Both Sandy and Jamie tried not to laugh as Bunny and Tooth had tried to capture the ice sprite. Jack was wearing a nice black tuxedo but still had nothing on his feet, and was refusing to do so. Sandy had changed his sand style to make it look like he was wearing a suit. Jamie was wearing a nice brown suit with a white shirt. Tooth was wearing a necklace of gold with matching gold bracelets.

"Knock it off guys! I haven't worn shoes in over three hundred years, why should I wear them now"

"Because its been over three hundred years since you've been to a formal function!" said Tooth as she grabbed him.

"I don't want to wear them!" Jack moaned as Bunny slipped them on to his feet.

"Ah shut ya trap! Its only for the wedding, after that you can take them off! Bunnymund promised as he stood up grabbing the basket that held his and North's wedding presents. "Alright, are we ready to go?"

Everyone nodded, Jack wrapped his arm around Jamie and winked. Bunnymund rolled his eyes as he opened up a tunnel for them to jump down in to. Sandy and Tooth went first followed by Jamie and Jack, Bunny last sealing up the tunnel as he left. They arrived in Halloween town, to see a large crowd already gathering outside town hall. Bunnymund had to admit they had really done the place up. The queue to the town hall was line with smiling pumpkins with bright burning candles. Large black and white ribbons hung from everything.

"With the fact we're all going in, I'm guessing that Sally said yes" said Jack as he held Jamie's hand. Jamie blushed and nodded as he followed them in. Jamie had tried not to stay around, but he had never seen such an odd looking place before, let alone the monsters. When Jack took his hand he felt calmer then before and decided to just to enjoy the day with him. A monster in a tall hat greeted them at the door.

"Welcome guardians, please leave your gifts with me and your seats are the fount bench on the right hand side"

Bunny handed him the basket and led the way down the walk way to their seats. He noticed that many of the holiday leaders and sprites were seating on the right hand aide while all the monsters were on the left. Jack was on the stage with the Mayor talking, and looking nervous, but where was North? He looked around the room and there was no sign of him.

"Bunny, I thought North was Jack's best man" said Tooth also looking around the room.

"I don't know, but I'm going to find out!" said Bunny as he went to march towards the skellington.

Suddenly the eerie tone of a badly played wedding march started, stopping Bunny in his tracks. Everyone stood up and looked down the aisle, as Doctor Finklestein wheeled nosily down it, escorting Sally, in a beautiful white dress with a spider pattern woven in black sequins, with a matching veil. There was the sound of a door closing behind him and Bunny turned to see something that made his mouth drop and eyes widen. It was North, his white beard brushed and trimmed, his blue eyes bright with happiness and wonder. He was wearing his normal hat but his coat was different, It was more like a robe that trailed behind him and was deep red velvet with a tidy black fur trim and gold buttons. Dark black trousers covered his powerful legs and polished boots on his feet. He wore a thick black belt with a golden buckle to hold them up. He wore a deep red long sleeve shirt with the first two buttons undone. And there for all to see was the pendent that Bunnymund gave him at Easter. He looked like a great Russian Czar from the great empire, powerful and magnificent. Several very dirty thoughts went though his mind, that he completely blocked out the march as Sally stood in fount of Jack as he raised her veil. North smiled widely, Bunny blushed deeply and swallowed hard.

"Friends and fellow leaders of holidays we are gathered here, to celebrate this joyous occasion, Jack Skellington and Sally Ragdoll. Please be seated" said North gesturing to the room. Everyone did so, except for Bunny who was stuck on the spot, Tooth pulled him in to his seat.

"Jack Skellington, leader of Halloween take Sally Ragdoll to be your beloved wife. To have to hold and in all things? as long as you both should live?"

"I do!" said Jack as the Mayor handed him a ring and he slid it on to Sally's waiting finger. Bunny was trying to concentrate on the ceremony he was, but damn it, North looked fantastic. Would he wear that at their wedding ceremony? He hoped he would, and what would he wear? something green? A long emerald green cape with gold embroidery, yes something like that.

"Do you Sally Ragdoll, take Jack Skellington to be your lawful husband, to have and to hold and to keep him out of trouble?"

Everyone let out a friendly laughter as Sally said "I Do" Doctor Finklestein handed her a ring to put on Jack's finger.

"By the power invested in me, by the Man in the Moon, I declare you Skellington and Wife. Kiss your bride!"

Jack and Sally wrapped their arms around each other and kissed, as everyone clapped and cheered.

The meal and speeches went well , though as far as Bunnymund was concerned it was going to damn slow. He wanted nothing more than to run up to North and take him back to the pole and not letting him go until he had no choice but to return back to his warren. Tooth and Sandy were have a polite conversation while Jack and Jamie were discussing all the different foods, daring each other to try the Halloween food and laughing. Jack then led his beautiful bride to the floor for the first dance, and North finally joined their table. He slid in to the seat next to Bunny, and took his paw in to his hand.

"North..." Bunny started but felt his tongue come to heavy to say what he wanted to say out load.

"Are you all enjoying yourselves?" North asked looking at them all.

"Yes, it was a beautiful ceremony North!" said Tooth

"Yeah you did a great job of planning all this North!" said Jack "Come on Jamie, Jack and Sally have finished their dance, so let's go and show everyone here what we've got!"

"Huh?" Jamie didn't have a chance to argue as Jack dragged him to the dance floor.

North laughed and pulled at Bunnymund's paw "Shall we join them?"

"Thought you'll never ask Mate!"

Since North was slightly taller than him , he allowed him to led them around the dance floor, in a gently waltz. He saw Jack showing a very nervous and blushing Jamie how to, with his hand firmly on his back.

"You looked very shocked to see me on the stage Bunnymund" said North as he swayed them.

"It's just your outfit, you look really good in it, my mind went and wondered in a very dirty place. And I plan on following its example as soon as we get back to the pole" said Bunnymund his eyes burning with lust. North chuckled and kissed Bunnymund, his tongue gently licking Bunny's lips asking permission to enter the rabbit's mouth. Bunny opened his mouth, his own tongue rubbing against North's as they battled for dominance. They broke apart unwillingly and continued to dance close together. Jack twisted and twirled Jamie around the floor, both smiling and laughing.

"Are you enjoying yourself Jamie?" asked Jack as he dipped the boy.

"Hey knock that off, I'm not a girl" Jamie laughed "And yes I'm having a blast! I can't wait to tell Sophie about this. She'll be so jealous!"

"I'm glad you could come with me Jamie, it would have been boring without you" said Jack sincerely as he took the boy's face and leant down and kissed him gently on the lips. Jamie felt his lips were warm for a moment before he felt Jack's cold one's pushing against his, his tongue pushing his way in. Jamie moaned, gripping Jack's jacket, pulling him closer. They broke apart when they needed air, a trail of saliva still linking their mouths together. Jack wiped his face on the back of his sleeve and held Jamie close, the human boy resting his head against his chest, content to hear his heart beating.

It was the end of the evening and Sally was now standing on top of a table with her back turned, was surrounded by female monsters and spirits alike jumping up and down.

"What's all that about?"asked Bunnymund as he watched with the other males.

"It's a tradition of throwing the flowers" said North "Very popular with women"

Sally threw the bouquet over her shoulder, were it bounced in several hands before they started knocking left and right trying to stop each other from getting it. One of the monster woman hit it as hard as she could and it flew up in to the air and landed in Bunnymund's arms. Some of the woman groaned buy must clapped and cheered.

"What happens now? Do I give it back or something?" He asked.

"Mr. Bunnymund, don't you know? The person that capture the bouquet is the next person they say will get married." explained Jack Skellington.

"So do you want me to give it back to Sally?" asked Jack Frost with a smirk, his arms held out to take it. Bunny pulled the flowers close to him and smiled, looking over at North helping Sally down from the table.

"Not on your nelly! I'm saving this!"

The End.

I know I know not much of a Halloween theme but like I said this plot bunny has been hanging around for awhile and was demanding to be written. So please tell me what you think and review.
