I followed Omega and Theresa out of her room and to the lobby where they announced their engagement to the entire hotel. Everyone was happy to hear the two of them were getting married, even Aunt Lydia, which really surprised me, as I thought she hated Omega. I gave him a curious look.
"I thought Aunt Lydia hated you?" I asked. Omega shook his head.
"Not anymore. We made amends." He said.
"I see. So, where are you going to have your wedding?" I asked.
"Well, we were thinking of having it here, if that's okay." He said.
"Sure, I don't see why not. I'm sure Papa Drac would be more than happy to have your wedding here." I said.
"I'll run it by him then." He said. I nodded then left the lobby and went back to my room. Wayde was sitting at the table doing some coloring.
"Hey little bro." I said. He turned around in his chair and looked at me.
"Oh, hey sis." He replied. I went over to the T.V. and turned it on to see if anything was on. I flipped through several channels and found nothing good was on. I then went over the bookshelf and grabbed a random book. I went over to my bed, sat down and started reading. A few hours passed and it was time for us to go to bed. I laid down on my bed and stared at the ceiling for a bit. Wayde went to our dresser and grabbed Mom's old binky from one of the bottom drawers. He put it in his mouth and started sucking on it. I sat up, looked at him, and smiled.
"Dad was right. You do look cute sucking on Mom's old binky." I said. Wayde blushed and smiled through the binky. He then walked over to my bed, climbed up, and looked at me. He took Mom's binky out of his mouth and gave me a kiss on the cheek. This made me smile, since I was usually the one to kiss him. I wrapped my arms around him and gave him a hug.
"Good night Wilma, I love you." He said.
"I love you too Wayde." I said. I let him go and got off my bed and went to his. He put Mom's binky back in his mouth before laying down and we were both asleep within a couple minutes.
[An hour later]
[Wayde's POV]
I was sound asleep when I started having a bad dream.
I was in a village surrounded by humans carrying torches. They were holding me against my will.
"Why are you trying to hurt me?" I asked one of the humans.
"My family is dead because of your kind! I want you to suffer for it." One of the humans replied.
"I had nothing to do with that!" I said.
"I'm not going to listen to another one of your lies!" He looked at the other humans. "Get him boys!"
"Leave me alone please!" I screamed. I broke free from the man holding me and I ran to the entrance of the village with the humans following. One of them tackled me just outside the village and sat on top of me.
"Prepare to die, dog!" He said bringing his torch closer to me.
"Noooo!" I screamed trying to fight back. The torch was getting closer to my face when I finally woke up. My fur was standing on edge and my claws were out. It was like I was actually there! I took Mom's binky out of my mouth and looked at Wilma. She was sound asleep.
"Wilma, wake up." I said. She slowly sat up, yawned, and looked at me.
"Is something wrong Wayde?" She asked.
"I had a bad dream. Humans were trying to hurt me." I said.
"You have nothing to worry about. Humans have been getting along with monsters for as long as I've been around." She said.
"But it felt so real!" I said. Wilma then got out of her bed, walked over to me, and picked me up. She started cradling me in her arms.
"It's okay little bro. I had a dream just like that when I was your age. You'll have dreams like that sometimes. Besides, I will never let anyone hurt you." She said. Hearing her say that made me feel a lot better and I started to fall back asleep from her cradling me. She went over to my bed, grabbed Mom's binky, and put it back in my mouth. I started sucking on it and Wilma carried me to her bed. She put me down on her bed and she laid down next to me. She gave me a kiss on the cheek, and I smiled.
"Good night, my little Wayde." She whispered to me before we both fell asleep again.
[The next morning]
I woke up several hours later. I yawned and looked at Wilma. She was still sleeping next to me. I took Mom's binky out of my mouth.
"Hey sis wake up." I said. She yawned and looked at me.
"Good morning little bro." She said. She got out of bed and stretched a bit. We then heard a knock on our door and someone came in. It was our dad, Dennis.
"Good morning you two." He said.
"Good morning Dad." Wilma replied.
"Hi Daddy." I said.
"Did you two sleep well last night?" He asked.
"Yep." She said.
"I did, thanks to my big sister." I said. Dad looked at me.
"What do you mean by that Wayde?" He asked.
"I had a bad dream Daddy, and Wilma gave me comfort." Dad walked over to me and picked me up.
"Is that so?" He asked. I nodded. Dad then looked at Wilma.
"Is this true, Wilma?" He asked. She nodded.
"Yes Dad." She said. Dad then smiled.
"That's wonderful! It's nice to see you taking care of your little brother Wilma." He said. Wilma smiled.
"I'll do anything for Wayde." She said. I smiled when she said that. I was lucky to have a sister like her. Dad then put me down.
"I think your mother is making some breakfast for you two if you're hungry. She's in the hotel kitchen." He said.
"Okay, thanks Dad." Wilma said. Dad then left our room. Wilma then walked over to me and picked me up. She carried me with her to the kitchen. Sure enough, Mom was making some food for us.
"Hi Mom." Wilma said. Mom stopped what she was doing and looked at us.
"Good morning you two. Here's some breakfast if you're hungry." She said finishing cooking and putting two plates of food on the nearby table.
"Thanks Mommy." I said. Wilma put me down and we both sat down the table and ate our breakfast. Once we were finished, we went back to our room. I sat down at our table to do some coloring in one of my books, while Wilma went and turned the T.V. on. A few minutes passed, and I had a strange thought come to my mind. I turned around and looked at her.
"Hey sis, do you know when you're in love?" I asked. Wilma gave me a surprised look.
"Why? Do you think you're in love?" She asked.
"Well, I love you, Mommy and Daddy but that's it." I said.
"Yes, well I suppose you do know when you're in love. Look at me and Walter. I had a feeling when I met him that we would be together." She said. She paused for a second.
"Where did that question come from?" She asked.
"I was just wondering, that's all." I said. In truth I didn't want to tell her that I thought of that question because I didn't want her to think I was weird. Eventually, it was time for bed.
[A few months later]
[Wilma's POV]
The time had finally come for Omega and Theresa's wedding. It was being held in the hotel, like they wanted. There were some Japanese styled decorations hanging about. I wondered why these were here, but I figured they just wanted that. Theresa walked down the isle. She was wearing a white dress, while Omega wore a black tux. The minister started going through the vow lines. I felt Wayde tug on my shirt and I looked at him. He was standing next to me.
"What's happening between them?" He asked.
"They're getting married." I replied. He gave me a confused look.
"What does married mean?" He asked.
"It means they love each other and want to be together for a long time." I said.
"Is that good?" I smiled and nodded.
"Yes." I said. The minister finished with his lines and Omega and Theresa kissed, the two of them now married.
The reception had started an hour later. I didn't stay for it however, and went back to my room with Wayde following. I was feeling tired for some reason and went to lay down on my bed. Wayde sat down on his bed and looked at me.
"How come you didn't stay downstairs?" He asked.
"I'm tired. That's why." I said. Wayde nodded in response. I was about to fall asleep when I heard a knock at the door. I got up and answered it. It was Walter.
"What are you doing here Walter?" I asked.
"Well, I was having trouble sleeping, and I thought I could sleep with you." He said. I smiled.
"Of course you can sleep with me." I said. He came in and I closed the door behind him. We both went to my bed and laid down. He wrapped his arms around me.
"I love you Wilma." He said.
"I love you too Walter." I said kissing him before we both went to sleep.
A/N: There you have it. The scene where Wayde asks Wilma if you know if you're in love is a reference to a scene in Assassin's Creed: Origins. I would like to add I have a little something planned for the next chapter. Until next time, take it easy.
