Chapter 56

J: *calls up Cardiff City Hall for him and Ianto to get married as soon as Ianto's been given a clean bill of health*

I: *heads over to the Hub kitchen* Oh, I've missed you, coffeemaker

Y: *comes up behind Ianto, hugging him* Ianto-

I: *turns to hug them* It's nice to be back

Y: I'm happy you're back. We missed you

J: *comes back to the kitchen* Okay everyone, go home and get changed and be at city hall in three hours. Ianto and I are getting married

R: *hurries to the kitchen* I'm still your best man, right?

J: Sure, but it's not gonna be a massive ceremony

I: Jack, I don't have a tuxedo

Y: I have two, Ianto you can borrow one

M: *thinking* Do I need one? Do I HAVE one?

Y: No, you don't need one

R: Can I walk you down the aisle then?

J: Not really gonna have an aisle

M: Who's officiating?
J: They have an officiant

R: *muttering* Gotta dig out the old suit

Y: You have my old ones

R: Oh yeah!

I: What do we wear, Jack? I've only got my work suits!

Y: I have two tuxedos, you boys can borrow them

I: Thanks Yan

J: Perfect. Let's go then, we don't have a lot of time

R: *gulping down the rest of his coffee* Aye Captain

M: *to Yan* *We'll stop and get champagne, right?*
Y: *Um. They're coming with us.*

M: *That- true. No champagne then.*
Y: *I have a plan.*

M: Alright everyone, let's go, we have a wedding to get to

M: *Oh? Tell me more?*

Y: *We don't need as much time to get ready. So we give them their tuxedos, quickly get ready, get champagne and party stuff, set up quickly here and then meet them there.*

M: *starts the car* *I like it.*

Y: *But, we do have to move quickly.*

M: *nods*

Y: *drives home with Jack and Ianto following*

Y: *runs inside to get the tuxedos once home*

J: *drives him and Ianto home once he has the tuxedos, not staying to talk so they have maximum time to get ready*

Y: *quickly changes* I am very glad we showered this morning

M: *nodding, looking for his nice shoes* Definitely glad, saves time

Y: Ready to get the other stuff?

M: *turns to them so they can tie his tie* Just about

Y: *ties it* *oh fu-*

Y: *kisses him hard, physically and mentally*

M: *knees buckle slightly, having been unprepared for the kiss* Oh-

Y: *pulls away* Alright?

M: *nods, looking stunned and in love* Uh huh

Y: Come on then

M: *follows happily*

I: *helps Jack with the bow tie* It's finally happening

J: It is

J: *feels butterflies in his chest while they get ready*

I: *teases him* You're how old and still can't tie a tie?

J: Hey, they're difficult!

I: 8hums* There you are

J: *kisses him* Thanks love

J: …We're about to get married, it feels almost unreal-

I: *kisses him again* It feels like a dream come true

J: That's cuz it is

I: *laughs softly, looking at him lovingly* It is

J: Why did we wait so long?

I: *shrugging * I'm just glad we're not waiting any longer

J: I should have fixed things sooner-

I: *hugs him* Not your fault, Cariad

J: But I forgave you quickly, I should have been able to fix it too-

I: *kisses him to shush him* It doesn't matter now

J: I suppose not

I: *straightens his tie* We'd better get going

J: *ties his shoes* Yeah I'm ready

I: *holds out his hand* Let's go, love

J: *takes it, excited*

I: *smiles, pulling him out to the car*

J: Can I drive? Please?

I: *gestures to the driver's seat* As you wish, my good sir

J: *drives them to the City Hall*

Y: *finishes setting up with Malcolm* How much time we got left?

M: *checks his watch* Like three minutes

Y: Shit shit let's go. Good thing we're pretty close

Y: *tosses Malcolm the keys before getting in the car* You drive

M: *gets in and drives* Wedding, here we come!
Y: *holds on tight*

J: *sets Ianto down* Wow, it's nice in here

M: You've never been in here?

I: *laughing* Jack, this isn't even our threshold

J: Don't care

R: *bouncing along behind them* Is there cake?

M: Yeah but it's not exactly a wedding cake

M: *brings out a chocolate cake with rainbow sprinkles and decorations* Figured you'd like this better. Also it was a bit too short notice for a wedding cake

J: Heh, yes

Y: And we have champagne *goes to get it*

R: Chocolate!

M: *laughs and sets it down, setting a knife near Jack and Ianto*

J: *whispers something to IAnto along their bond about chocolate frosting and naked*

I: *nearly chokes on his cake, turning pink*

J: *amused* Okay, Ianto?

I: Oh yes, perfectly *Not at the table, for crying out loud.*
J: *Oh you'll definitely be crying out loud.*

I: *turns red*

J: *smirks*

R: *noticing, rolls his eyes* Oh come on, not in front of my cake!

M: *snorts*

Y: *laughing*

J: Fine, we'll go behind your cake

I: *swats at Jack* Behave, Jack

R: *mock gags*

J: Fine! *pouting* You're no fun!

I: *raises an eyebrow* Oh really? *sends Jack a mental image to make him turn red*

J: *blushes hard, sputtering* And he tells ME to behave

R: Ianto you are just as bad as him!

M: *laughing*

Y: *slightly red* I'm gonna just *closes their link to Jack and Ianto* I was still linked to you two-

Y: I saw and heard all of that

J: Oops-

I: *turns red* Sorry, Yan

R: I am so glad I did not! There are just some things you don't need to know about your parents!
Y: No worries, Ianto. Nothing I don't plan on doing to Malcolm

Y: *smirks at him*

I: *laughs*

J: Malcolm, I do believe you've met your match

M: *sounding slightly strangled* You tHiNk?
