[the odd couple returned to the reception hall, where Wander n Hater were waiting for them a little worriedly, n thankfully the guests were having too much fun to notice they're gone]
Wander: Everything okay?
Sylvia: Yeah, got a bit of drama, bt it's more or less settled
Hater: U alright, Peeps?
Peepers: :(
Wander: ...Don't wanna talk about it?
Sylvia: C'mon, Pipsqueak. We nvr got to finish our dance [takes his hand n led him to the dance floor]
Peepers: (walks with her)
Wander: (stared after them) I take he don't want to talk about it.
Hater: Probably not. Might just ruin his night. Ugh, of all times, his dad had to show up now on the most happiest day of his life
Wander: (leans into his side) We shouldn't try to interfer.
Hater: Yeah, I knw [winced] Oof! Tht was a hard kick
Wander: (placed a hand on his stomach)
[another hard kick was felt]
Hater: >.<;;
Wander: Heh, strong little sweeties, ain't they? :)
Hater: Yeah, n heavier too. Feels almost more than the usual litter weight
Wander: (think) ..a larger litter possibly?
Hater: Oh god, how large? Isn't 6 in a litter large enough? (worry)
Wander: Yes, nomads do have about 5 to 6, but...we'll just have to wait and see. (hugs the Skeletor)
Hater: [hugged him bk] Wanna dance?
Wander: :$ Sure thing. (leads him to the dance floor)
[they both made their way to the dance floor to join the dance with everyone else]
Wander: :) (waltz with Hater but stole a glance at Brad sitting by himself)
Brad: [sipped on champage n ate the wedding cake alone]
Hater: Wat's wrong, Wander?
Wander: ...Nothing.
Hater: Wander, honey, wat did we say abt speaking ur mind?
Wander: ... Only if you won't be too mad about it...
Hater: I promise :)
Wander: (bites his lip) Well... See... Bradley and I... We... (whispers into Hater about what his relationship used to be with Brad)
Hater: [blinked] Oh, reli? Huh, no wonder he's pissed at u
Wander: Yeah... I can't blame him for feeling used...but it was what Princess Demurra asked of me...and now...
Hater: Now he's left heartbroken n alone by BOTH of u. Prolly finding it hard to trust ppl to be in a real relationship again. I guess he reli did love u
Wander: I guess I did too... but you and I are married and he might find someone out there somewhere someday... :(
Hater: Well, everyone has their first love at some point in their lives, I shouldn't be surprised since ur a conquerer. Tho... technically ur my first n only love :$
Wander: That right? You didn't...like like anyone else before me?
Hater: [shook his head] Nvr. I was a prisoner in my own home, remember? N I was sold off to slavery at 18, I nvr developed a bond with anybody, not evn my previous Masters
Wander: (hugged him close)
Hater: [hugged him bk, then whispered] U wanna give Brad a dance, don't u?
Wander: Oh...um... (glanced again towards Brad)
Hater: Its OK, I'm kinda tired anyways, my bk n my feet r killing me. Besides, I think there's some leftover cake I wanna finish coz I'm pretty peckish. Go ahead. U hv my blessing
Wander: :) (heads over to where Brad is)
Hater: [made his way to where the leftover cake was n helped himself]
Brad: [was lost in thought sipping champagne, didn't notice Wander coming ovr]
Wander: (cleared his throat)
Brad: [jumped a little n turned to see Wander] Oh, it's u. Wat do u want?
Wander: ... Care for a dance?
Brad: :^) ....Excuse me?
Wander: Hater needed a little break and he already said he was fine if I shared a dance with you too. (holds his hand out in offer)
Brad: Reli now? How generous of Boney... [glanced at Hater's direction, where the Skeletor was munching away on the leftover cake]
Wander: We can just do a short dance if that's what you'd rather do.
Brad: (think) .... |-( Fine~ bt only coz u insist [gets up n went up to Wander]
Wander: (took his hand and led him to the dance floor)
Brad: [felt a bit awkward bt went with the flow]
Wander: (danced with him in a slow manner, sort of looking away from him)
Hater: [just watched quietly as he ate at the scene unfold]
Brad: [notice him looking away] Geez, if I didn't knw any better, I think u don't like dancing with me after all
Wander: It's not that, just...you know, a little awkward.
Brad: Awkward? Why would u think tht?
Wander: Well, sure we were some sort of item but me being married now... it's like something with an ex, you might say.
Brad: Huh, now tht u mention it, it does... So why did u do this then? N how is Boney OK with this?
Wander: Hatey did say he was fine with us dancing. And well... I don't know... I'd still like to take a shot as friends...
Brad: Didn't we already established tht with our drinking session? Ur the one who stopped approaching me after tht talk we had since then
Wander: True, it's just... some feelings are harder to get over then others... (looked away more)
Brad: [sighed] Look, I get it. Ur feeling guilty abt us n all tht crap. I've already given u my good faith n let this "friendship" thing worth a try. If u can move on n marry Boney there, then u can move on n start forgiving urself for wat u did to me. I'm not going out of my way to kill u or insult u anymore, so u should take ur own advice abt us being friends
Wander: (sighed of relief) :) I will. And I'm sure you'll find someone too.
Brad: Pfft, tht'll be the day, bt I appreciate ur enthusiasm [held up Wander's arm n twirled him in circles in the dance] :D
Wander: (chuckle) (kept dancing with him)
Hater: [was a bit jealous seeing them, bt decide to let them hv tht moment for a while as he continued eating]
Sylvia: [meanwhile had finished dancing n was at the table sitting with Peepers as they sipped champagne] U OK now, Pipsqueak?
Peepers: (sipped his drink, still a bit silent)
Sylvia: U wanna retire to our room now? I know ur not in a mood, so we can skip our wedding night. Sleep early tonight n we can go visit him where he's staying tomorrow
Peepers: (signs) I'm sorry...
Sylvia: It's OK, we're married now, there'll be plenty of time to celebrate our wedding night. Give n take in the relationship, right?
Peepers: (nods slowly)
Sylvia: Come, let's go to bed. Let the rest party the night away [held out her hand]
Peepers: (nod) (takes her hand)
Sylvia: [turns to the crowd] Everyone! Thank u for being at our wedding n celebrating with us, bt we've got a celebrating of our own, if u know wat I mean ;) U guys can carry on partying without us!
[Everyone whooped n cheered as they send them off]
Peepers: :) (follows Sylvia to their room)
Hater: (wave) [made his way to Wander] May I hv my husband bk now?
Brad: Oh hey, Boney, sure, go ahead [makes way for him]
Wander: (goes over to Hater) Hey, how you feeling now?
Hater: Better, now that I managed to sit down n take a break. Tho I might hv finished the entire leftover 3-tiered cake ^^;;
Wander: (giggle) Oh you.
Brad: I'm gonna go score me some more champagne while u two lovebirds carry on ;) [left to chk the buffet n drinks table]
Wander: (chuckles to himself, watching Brad leave)
Hater: So how did it go? U two good now?
Wander: Yeah, I think we're good. (nod)
Hater: That's good :)
Wander: (hugs him gently)
Hater: [hugged him bk, then yawned] (yawn)
Wander: You wanna turn in early?
Hater: Yeah. It's been a long day, n I ate too much to stay awake
Wander: C'mon. (leads Hater back to their room for the night)
Sylvia: [once in their room, took off her wedding clothes n went to tend to the twins, bathing n dressing them up in their jammies]
Peepers: (yawn)
Sylvia: [sat on the bed to nurse the twins] It's OK, Pipsqueak, u can sleep first. I'll join u wen the twins r done
Peepers: (nod) (climbs into bed, snuggling under the covers) ... |-)
Sylvia: [chuckled n shook her head as she continued feeding, then once the twins were done, burped them n tucked them into their baby basket n joined Peepers in bed] |-)
Peepers: (cuddled against his wife)
