27. Stained Glass

Thanks to Serandi, tipsu, Rainediamond, Wannabe kairi, Doc-sama, for reviewing the previous chapter!

A/N: I'm not a Christian, so let me know if it's wrong to do it in a chapel or anything like that. I just thought the chapel would look beautiful for a small and cosy wedding without overdoing it.

"Do you want to hold the wedding at a chapel?" Mamoru asked, eyes skimming through the bridal magazine's pages. "The building would look really nice on pictures."

"Hmm, yes, but the decorations for a chapel wedding, wouldn't it be too expensive?" Usagi answered, brows furrowed in deep thought as she clicked away on the websites. She didn't want to spend too much of his money, yet she did want it to look beautiful and grand at the same time.

A pair of lips kissed the side of her neck, arms encircling her shoulders. "Why not I bring you to the place first? Then you can decide if you still want it or not." She'll deifnately take the chapel when she sees it. He smiled knowingly.

"True, we'll have to see it first." She got up to change, planting a kiss on his lower jaw. Mamoru grabbed his keys, senses humming with excitement as they went to the car. The car pulled up at the orphanage he grew up in as a kid.

"Mamo-chan? Why are we here? Isn't this the orphanage you grew up in? Usagi questioned, puzzled that he would bring her to the orphanage instead of a church. Mamoru didn't say anything, grabbing her hand and walking towards the back of the orphanage.

What Usagi saw rendered her speechless. A small chapel stood at a distance away from the back of the orphanage, with large beautiful stained glass windows depicting flowers, a mother and child, and many other similar pictures complete with white washed walls. There was nothing else aside from the building except lush green grass. There was no question about it. It was absolutely perfect. A tug on her hand brought her back to her senses and she found herself behind the chapel this time, staring at the biggest garden of roses with different colours.

"Wha-wait. Is this yours?" She turned to face him, eyes wet with moisture. Mamoru scratched the back of his head sheepishly. "The garden's mine, and I planted those roses when I was a kid. We can ask the chapel to be lent to us for the wedding, and we don't have to pay because the orphanage won't take any money from me for this. For payment, we have to teach the kids how to do the flower arrangements for the decoration of the church."

Usagi couldn't hold it in anymore, bursting into tears of joy. How could anything be more perfect than this arrangement? She had already planned to involve the kids from the orphanage but she hadn't figured a way how to yet. With this arrangement, he basically solved all of her problems and she could finally concentrate on getting her dress and the other minor stuff for the wedding.

"How, I mean. Why. No Wait-" She couldn't get the words out. It was all just too wonderful.

"Decide if you want to talk or cry-." He chuckled, clearly delighted at her joy with his arrangement. Usagi took the chance and silenced him with a desperate kiss, fingers intertwining with his as he returned the kiss with equal fervour.

"It's perfect."

A/N: This didn't come out as nice as I expected, like kinda choppy between the sequence, I felt. Let me know if you feel the same so I can improve! For those who put me on story alert/favourites, I thank you too, but please review!

Give me some love! Virtual coffee to those who read and review, thank you!
