You are Dave Strider and Jegus Christ, you actually forgot how to breathe. How is that even possible?
You dad whacks you on the back,"Yo, Davey-boy, chill out." He abandoned his anime shades today, just for the event.
"Shut up, Pops, I'm about to get married in an hour, how the hell am I supposed to calm down!?" You throw your arms up. Dirk only laughs, leaning against a wall.
"Ah, reminds me of my wedding." He smiles fondly.
"Oh, hush, you almost passed out too!" Jake enters the room, dragging John, Jade, and Rose behind him. You tried to hold back a laugh; John looked so dorky in his little tux, Rose looked plainly uninterested in her sparkly red dress, and Jade had been tossing petals all morning.
"No, no, Jadey." You knelt beside her, picking up a handful of flowers and putting them back in the basket. She giggles loudly as she takes some petals into her tiny hands and tosses them on top of your head.
"What do you mean, I can't drink in the church!? This is an outrage!" Dirk face palms as his sister storms into the room.
"How do they expect me to go a whole twenty minutes without a drink, hm!?" She sits herself down in the nearest chair.
"Roxy, cool it with the damn booze." Dirk picks John up.
"Oh, Roxy, you dropped your flowers...and your keys...and your shoe...and your beer bottle." Jane runs in with a plethora of items dropped by the blonde, who apparently dropped her other shoe. The black haired woman didn't notice it in time as she tripped over it.
Jake caught his sister by her arms and pulled her back up, "Careful there, Janey." He straightens her up.
You almost have to laugh at your family. This typically happened at every event, but today, you were worried as all hell.
"What if he says no?"
"He said yes to the proposal." Dirk points out.
"Okay, but what if he de-"
"What if you calm your arse down and get to the alter so he doesn't think you left." Jake folds his arms, nodding up toward the clock.
Alright...here goes...
You stand up at the alter with Dirk and Jake next to you. You forgot how to breathe again so both boys whack you this time.
"Breathe, man." Dirk smirks at you.
"Shhh, it's starting." Jake hushes you both as the piano begins to play.
Rose and Jade toddle down the aisle, tossing petals as they go, John walks down the isle with the rings. Your aunt Roxy slowly descends down the aisle with Tavros, followed by your aunt Jane and Karkat's brother Kankri. Gamzee and Terezi follow. And then...
Karkat, being escorted by his dad, comes in to view.
Forget breathing, you felt like you were fucking floating right now. Like you were on cloud nine or some shit.
Karkat was never much for wearing a suit, so he went with black skinny jeans, a white dress shirt with he sleeves rolled up, a black vest, and a pair of your red converse. His red tie hung loosely around his neck. For sake of tradition, he carried a single red rose with him. He kept his face down as a bright red blush spread across his face.
Dirk smirks and elbows you in the side. You blush just as bad as Karkat, maybe even more.
Karkat finally reaches the alter and turns to face you. You realize now just how short he is compared to you and just how much more adorable that makes him.
"Hey." He whispers.
"Hey." You grin. You continue to stare at each other as the priest began speaking, automatically picking up on key words and replying with your planned response. Now comes the part you were scared for.
"Karkat Sangre Vantas, do you take Dave Caballero English to be your husband?"
There was a pause. Everyone in the church quickly shut up, waiting.
"I..." Karkat begins slowly, testing his words.
'I.." He stutters a bit. Here we go, he's gonna say no,
"Do."
There! Wait, what!? He said yes? YES!
You feel a sigh of relief come over you and eagerly press your lips to your new husband's.
From here, it was on the reception!
A/N: Alright, virtual cookies to who ever can tell me what Karkat and Dave's middle names translate to.
