I promise.

Request from Rankochi: Well you did allow us to spam you with it and each story only helps with new ideas ;) but actually I'm a bit stuck with my own idea. I was thinking about a modern wedding between the three...but legally it's actually not possible. So how about what the guys think of as an alternative to realise Megumi's wish of a wedding? ;)

Megumi sighed twirling her drink in her hand watching Koala and Sabo dance beautifuly across the dance floor, she was happy for the two her and Koala had been friends throughout secondary school and then Ace introduced Sabo to Koala and now they are here at their wedding. It was something she would never have the church, the beautiful white wedding dress, because she fell in love with two men and by law she could never marry both of them. Oh yes she could have kids with both of them, live with both of them screw them until dawn broke but marry them oh no.

"Come on you," Ace took the champagne glass from her hand, "That's enough for you."

"I am fine," She laughed, "Doesn't Koala look beautiful…."

Ace sighed placing the glass down on the table looking round for Marco who was talking with Jimbei who was Koalas adopted uncle if he remembered the family connection correctly, he whistled catching Marco's attention and he shunted his head down to Megumi who curled up against him slowly undoing the orange tie.

Marco chuckled as they finally got through the door, Megumi's silver heels had come off in the taxi on the way home and was now held in his hands, "It's not fair…" Megumi murmured as they laid her down on the sofa and Marco went to fetch her a glass of water, "Koala gets her fairy tale white wedding with the big church and I can't marry the two men I love."

"It's the law," Ace sighed.

Marco came back with a glass of water in hand seeing that Megumi has fallen asleep, "She ok , yoi?" Marco asked sitting down next to Ace.

"Yeah just…."

"She wants to get married to both of us but she can't?"

"How did you…."

"Megumi was raised in a family that all they talked about was her wedding, she still dreams of the perfect white wedding, yoi."

"She said she didn't want that though?" Ace questioned.

"Megumi says a lot of things though I know she wants to be married," Marco sighed.

"I've got an idea."

A few days later Megumi sat with Izo and Haruta outside the coffee shop round the corner from hers, "So why have you called me out?"

Izo grinned, "Remember that wedding dress you saw the other day…?"

Megumi gave him a questioning look remembering the dress well it was off the shoulder knee length, "Yes why?"

Haruta threw the dress bag at her, "Quickly we have half an hour."

Later on that day Megumi stood in the back garden of Marcos fathers house, "It might not be the wedding you wanted and its not legal all paper work," Ace laughed as he slipped the ring onto her finger, "But I promise to stay by your side until our final breath."

Marco slipped another ring onto her finger kissing the tip of her finger, "I promise to love you for now and always."

It might not have been a wedding, but it was a celebration of a promise these three shared.

AN: Moderny Modern lol, rather than a wedding they share a promise which I think is more romantic, I do want a wedding don't get me wrong but just the money :P lol.
