Goodbye & Hello 8.2

I walked up the pathway with my dad and Abbie on each side of me I could see Becca standing under a gazebo as we crossed a small bridge.

Over the years I had seen Becca go all out to dress up, but nothing could've prepared me for this. She wore a white Vera Wang Floriana dress that looked like Ms. Wang created it with Becca in mind. Her hair was done had the volume anyone would've of been jealous of with a few dreadlocks on the side that I was relieved to find out was extensions. Combined with that devilish grin and she looked like a goddess.

"Don't be mad! You should know by now that there was no way I could of had us married in a old stuffy courtroom. We would of probably of been in between a serial killer or stalker losers and their public attorneys. Would you really want Jack the Ripper jr. and Daniel Holzclaw-?"

It took every ounce of strength I had not to burst out laughing! Has there ever been a wedding in modern times where the first thing a bride-to-be says to her betrothed is 'Don't be mad'?

"-in our wedding photos?" she waved her hand in front of her "Imagine the kids and the guests having to endure that!"

I fought back the tears then figured to hell with it. Who isn't allowed to cry at their wedding especially when she was marrying a woman who would go to such lengths. "I never thought about that! Thank you for thinking of everyone's safety ,and our reputation, by moving it here instead. It's gorgeous and so are you!"

She gave me a gracious bow eyeing my dress as she did. "You don't like it?" OMG she's actually going to critique my look HERE? Can't she be off duty for once? She must of noticed me getting nervous. " You're beautiful. Watashi wa, anata O aishiteimasu!" My eyes went wide and I shook my head in disbelief. She knows Japanese? Since when? "It means I love you." "I love you too. How long have you known Japanese?" "Since I asked Mr. Tanaka to teach me it right after I arrived." I stood in disbelief. She had said it like she was fluent in the language.

Some slight coughing got our attention as we both looked over to the celebrant "Are we ready to begin?" I took a deep breath and nodded.

I didn't even hear very much of him as he talked about how joyous our marriage was. occasionally I would hear him mention some story back in college like when Becca decided she needed to prove who was the better dancer. I just couldn't take my eyes of Becca and it seemed she couldn't focus on anything but me until another cough broke us both out of our trance. "Huh?" Becca said looking around eyes wide. "Your vows." whispered the celebate.

Becca stood there as if lost in thought. "You know, I had something written down but... I can't help thinking back to the moment we first met." She glanced around at our family, and guests. "It sure wasn't love at first sight by most people's standards." The crowd laughed "but I have no doubts that it wasn't anything less. I knew the moment I saw you that you would change everything. You went from my biggest adversary to the person I couldn't imagine my life without. I promise to love you till the day that I die. To always be your biggest fan and loudest cheerleader. And you can bet I'll always be there to challenge you and make sure you are always your very best as you have always done for me."

Oh my God, I'm totally going to ruin the Make-up job Susan worked so hard on if I can't get myself to stop crying.

"Oh god becca, I have dreamed of becoming your wife for years. Nobody has ever touched me the way you do and there is certainly nobody I would rather want. You are such a loving person despite all your..." I did my best Becca impersonation "Whatever!" Becca and the guests laughed in unison. "And that's why I want to support and love you till my very last breath. “

We danced till I felt like my feet would fall off, but it was easily the best day of my life. “You know honey, I know we agreed to keep things simple, but thank you.” Becca kissed me “This wasn't my doing. It was all your parents idea after I booked the reservation. You like it?”

“I love it! And I love you!” “Well I’m glad to hear it because it’s a little late now for you to be going and changing your mind.”

I didn’t think I would ever stop dancing. My dad, Zack, Teddy, and Becca who had picked out ‘Because You Loved Me’ by Celine Dion which did cause me to lose it. “Do you hate the song that much?” I shook my head “I love it!” “So many times I have you reasons to walk away and you never did. Not only that you was the only one who stood by me and I really am, everything I am because you loved me.’” She said in sync with Celine.

I gave her a deep kiss then rested my forehead on hers “Let’s get out of here!” “About time!” Becca said with an evil smile. “You, wanting to leave a party?” “No party can compare to getting you out of that dress.” I laughed as we went to find the kids.

“They passed out a little bit ago.” My mom said looking at them. Why don’t you two enjoy some time alone and they can stay with us tonight.”

I was unsure and immediately felt guilty. It wasn’t that I didn’t trust my parents but the separation from Madison hasn’t been easy now… is this okay?

“I don’t know…” “Honey, you just got married and are supposed to have some alone time. I know you’re worried but they will be fine for one night.” I have my mom a smile. You will call if anything happens?”

“Of course. I’m not new to this after all.” I gave her a hug and me and Bec… my wife, rushed home.

As soon as the door shut I pushed her against it as my hands grabbed her by the side of the head as I kissed her. “ Look at you taking charge. I like it!”

“What can I say? I just can’t resist my wife!” My hand reached behind and unzipped her dress as I kissed her again.

“Well duh! You proved that by waking me up this morning. She undid the zipper of my dress then stepped out of hers and set it across the chair before moving to the recliner.

I went towards her as I started getting out of my dress when he held up her finger as she crossed her legs. “Not so fast! Dance for me!”

WHAT?! She can’t possibly be serious. I let the dress fall. “Oh C’mon MC, you can do better than that! You beat me in school after all.”

She is serious! My brain ran a hundred directions before I took a deep breath and steeled myself. I was probably going to embarrass myself, but why not? She was giving me that smile of hers. Yeah, you're enjoying this, aren’t ya honey? I guess some things will never change between us. Well then, game on!

“Where are you going?” “Put on some music. It’s hard to dance without it.” I said without looking back.

I dimmed the lights and quickly glanced at the music on my phone. Whitney Houston’s ‘I’m every woman’ jumped out at me. Damn right I thought as I clicked it and waited to see if the speakers would pick it up. They did and I upped the volume as I headed back.

Becca was sitting away from me acting nervous looking around. I’m not sure what she has to be nervous about. It’s not like I just told her to give me a striptease.

I came up behind and wrapped my arms around her. She jumped a little “shhhh don’t be so jumpy.” I whispered in her ear. I gave it a kiss before pulling away and moving in front of her.

“I haven’t practiced much since then so you’ll have to be patient with me.”

“If you ever practiced this for anyone else I definitely want to know-“

I kicked off my heels towards her. “Hey!” She caught both of them and set them on the floor.

To my surprise I found this kinda fun. Okay, a lot of fun! How much could I make her squirm? Let’s find out…

I turned away from her as I slowly let the wedding dress drop a little more with each thrust of my hips. I looked back behind me and could tell Becca was getting worked up.

I let the dress fall and pool at my feet. I stepped out and turned towards Becca. “You always pick the oddest things. Why do you do this to yourself?”

I sashayed over and sat on her lap. Wrapping my arms around her neck I nuzzled her it didn’t take long before her hands was on my sides working their way up.

“I have no idea what you are talking about. I just didn’t-“ I pulled back and slapped her hand away. “What the hell was that for?!” The look on her face was priceless. Why wasn’t I recording this? “This is what I was talking about. You choosing this little game. It has rules you know? I can touch you wherever I want but you can’t touch me.”

I had never seen her put on such a sad face. She crossed her arms “That is just stupid! Who would create such a thing?” I put my arms back around her “Oh you poor girl.” I kissed her and could see out of the corner of my eye her holding her arms outstretched. It had to be the funniest thing I’ve seen “I’m not touching you. I can- I pulled back again and slapped her shoulder. “What the hell did I do this time?”

“I felt your tongue. That counts as touching and I told you-“ Becca grabbed and kissed me “I was never good at following rules.

A few hours later we laid in bed our bodies worn out. By all accounts I should be fast asleep but I couldn’t.

“You’re not asleep?” Becca said sitting up. “I was just thinking.” “About?” “Mmm nothing.” “It’s not nothing. I can tell you’re worn out. I have to admit with all the dancing…” she coughed “and endless sex I’m more than a bit myself. So tell me!”

I gave her a kiss “I’ll be fine Becca. Geez! I’m just…” “Okay!” Becca pulled away and turned on the lamp. “What…” “Lets go get them.” She said as I sat up and looked at her in disbelief. “Becca it’s past eleven and-“ “and you’re missing them like I am. I figured it was like when I stayed the night a Alice’s house when I was a kid. I got homesick and left in the middle of the night. But you’re missing them too so let’s just go get them.

“You’re perfect you know that?” I climbed out of bed. “Duh! I’ve been telling you that since we met.” “And now you know I agree.”
