Seven Years Later…
"Well today's the big day," Shion said.
"Yeah, you must be very excited Rena," Mion said.
"Indeed I am," Rena smiled at the twins.
"I wish you both happiness," Rika said.
"About time, that's all I have to say," Hana said. Her arms were wrapped around Michiru in a loving embrace.
"Let's just hope they didn't drink too much last night," Satoko stated. "If Shinichi's hung over, he shouldn't get any sympathy from you, Rena-san."
"I'm so excited! I'm glad you two are finally tying the knot!" Hanyuu said, happy for her friend.
"We've waited a long time for this," Rena said warmly, wishing they were at the church right now.
"Man what a night…" Shinichi said. He had longer hair and seemed to have a much more mature look to him as he was putting on his tuxedo.
"Um, will he be alright?" an older Keiichi asked, pointing at a still passed out Shogo.
"Eh, a few hours of sleep, a shower and a couple of slaps to the face and he'll be out of dreamland," Shinichi assured them as he poured himself some coffee.
"I can't believe it took such a long time for you to pop the big question," Daichi said. He now sported a shorter hair-cut with a much calmer look to him.
"Well, at least he was finally able to do it. For a minute there I thought it was going to take a few more years," Chiaki said smiling. He no longer wore a hat or scarf to cover his face.
"I still don't see why Yokoshima gets to be the best man. I bet he forgot the rings," Keichii said.
"It's not my fault he won the contest to see who wins the best man thing…that reminds me, do you have the rings Yokoshima?" Shinichi asked
"For the millionth time YES! I have the rings!" Yokoshima groaned. "Now will you quit asking!? God, I thought I was going to only be asked that question once."
"Can you keep it down?" Shogo moaned, as he got up groggily.
"Here, drink this," Satoshi said, giving him a glass of water and some aspirin. Shogo popped the aspirin into his mouth and drank the water gratefully.
A couple of hours later, Warren walked in to see all the men, including the groom, ready for the big day.
"Well, shall we go?" Warren said. He got a nod as the men left to head for the church.
As the wedding march began to play, Shinichi turned to see his bride coming towards him and smiled. When she reached the altar, Rena took Shinichi's hand as her father stood to watch his daughter's wedding.
"I'm so happy for the both of them," Shiori sniffed. She was holding hands with Kasai. Asmodeus blew a kiss to her husband, who caught it. Sho was also sitting with his parents, waving at his brother and soon-to-be sister-in-law.
"Do you, Rena Ryuugu, take Shinichi Banabara to be your lawfully wedded husband, in sickness and in health, for better or for worse, for richer or poorer, so long as you both shall live?" the priest asked.
Rena answered, "I do."
"And do you, Shinichi Banabara, take Rena Ryuugu to be your lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health, for better or for worse, for richer or poorer, so long as you both shall live?"
Shinichi answered, smiling, "Of course I do."
"Now does the best man have the rings?" the priest requested
"Yes," Yokoshima said. While happy for the two, he was sick and tired of hearing that question. He pulled out the rings and presented them to the bride and groom.
"Rena-chan, by this ring, I swear to always be faithful to you, love you and to protect you, even at the risk of my own life," Shinichi vowed as he put the ring on Rena's finger.
"Shin-kun, by this ring I will always love and support you, no matter what, and always have faith in you," Rena vowed as she put the ring on Shinichi's finger.
"Thus, with the power vested upon me, I now pronounce you man and wife. You may now kiss the bride," the priest finished.
Rena and Shinichi smiled as they began to kiss. They didn't even notice the huge cheers coming from their guests as they were announced as Mr. and Mrs. Banabara.
Shinichi and Rena finally broke their kiss as they smiled at one another, a new chapter of their lives beginning…
-THE END-
