Black and white wedding bells chap 13
"I m nervous. I think I m more nervous then last time" Duo said as he looked at himself in the mirror.
Quatre laughed and fastened the last rose in the braid. "I understand you. We did the exact same thing last time and after that you got kidnapped. Don't worry, Duo. Remember, you have five guards outside of the room and Enjou is guarded as well under Treize's orders. This time, you and Heero will get married!" he said and tied of the braid with a white ribbon.
Duo stood up and walked to the full length mirror by the bathroom door. He looked himself over. He wore yet another white tuxedo, but this one was more beautiful then the last one. The wonderful patterns that covered the white silk tux twisted in great bows and ended with leafs and tiny white flowers in white. Around his neck he had a scarf that he had borrowed from Quatre and was held there with a red gem. A pinkish blush spread over his cheeks and his eyes sparkled.
As he stood there and watched himself, Quatre pulled out a black little box form his tux pocket. He opened it and pulled out a necklace that he slipped around the braided neck and fastened it in the back. The chain hung on the outside of the scarf and tux, making it visible for everyone.
Duo was surprised and picked up the item that dangled in the fine chain. "Quatre… you shouldn't have…" he whispered as his violet eyes gazed at the beautiful item. It was a tiny scythe in pure gold. On its blade there was small diamonds and the handle had a small string of silver warping around it from top to bottom. Duo flipped the jewel over and saw the tiny text `Duo Maxwell Yuy' carved on the backside. Dropping the jewel he hugged the blond. "It's beautiful, Quatre"
"I hoped that you would like it. It was made before you got kidnapped but I wanted you to have it when you got married. See it as a token of our friendship" Quatre said and ended the hug. He brushed back his blond hair as he turned to the door. "I'll go and check on Heero. I'll send Wufei in here as soon as possible"
Duo sat down on the chair. "Don't worry about me! I think I can handle being alone for a few minutes" he said and picked up his brush to piff up his forelocks. Inside he was a bit worried about being alone. Looking at the necklace he had gotten from Quatre, he felt a bit calmer.

Heero and Trowa just finished dressing when Quatre poked his head into the room. "Hi, how are you coming along? It's only… hmmm… ten minutes left before the ceremony starts. Where us Wufei by the way? I promised Duo that I'll send Wufei to him when I saw him" Quatre said and walked over to his husband and fixed the tie that was still untied around Trowa's neck.
Trowa stood perfectly still as slender fingers tied the tie. "Wufei is outside and fixing things and we are done as we speak. Calm down, honey, don't get all stressed"
Heero brushed his hair but it was still messy when he was done. "Has everyone come?" he asked Quatre.
"Yepp. Everyone is sitting outside and waiting, even the `terrifying hippo nurse' as Duo called his nurse. I haven't seen Treize today…"
"Treize is speaking with some of the guards. He said something about a surprise for Enjou or something" Trowa said and picked up a white rose from the vase that stood on the table in front of the mirror that they had been using. Cutting it with a scissor, he placed it in the loop of the breast pocket of Heero's black tuxedo. "There! All done. Lets head out and get ready for the ceremony. It starts in five minutes" he finished and left with Quatre.
Heero looked at the closed door before he shifted his glaze to his right hand. `Soon I'll carry a ring that proves that I and Duo are one. In just a few minutes, me and Duo will say I do and then… our life as a couple'

The backyard of Treize's and Wufei's cabin had never been as beautiful as after the decorators had gotten their hands on it. They had placed a great bow, decorated in white lilies and white roses, by the water edge. Under the bow they had made a altar with a platform where the priest would stand and look over the crowd as he wedded the couple. In front of the bow, under the hanging branches of great trees, they had placed chairs in white for the crowd. The chairs were placed on a huge red carpet and white flowers made an aisle that led to the altar in the middle of it. At the end of the aisle lay rose petals. Bands in white blew gently in the breeze.
Heero was stunned as he saw the ceremony spot. He had never thought that his wedding would take place outside, but now when he saw the decorations, he didn't regret anything. He walked down the aisle with Trowa. The Wing pilot spotted all the familiar faces that now had taken their seats in front of the bow. He was almost blinded by the many flashes from all the cameras that were aimed at him.
He spotted Relina* at the front row. She had given up her hopes of him falling for her when Heero and Duo had announced their engagement. Relina had avoided them from that time, but Duo had insisted that they should invite her and told his lover that it was up to her to decide if she wanted to come or not.
Trowa stopped in front of the priest and turned to his friend. "So the time has finally come. You and Duo are getting wedded" he smiled.
"Did you feel as nervous as I do now when you got married?" Heero asked.
"Yes, at the beginning. As soon as you spot Duo down the aisle, you will be walking on clouds"
"Being poetic now, eh Trowa?"
"If you weren't the one getting married I would say: sod off"

"Ready Duo?" Quatre asked as he stepped into Duo's dressing room. He looked around for the braided pilot but couldn't see him. "Duo?" he asked again, feeling a bit scared. He walked over to the bathroom door, his hand shaking as it reached for the handle. Just as he was about to open the door, it flew open in his face. "Woha!" he gasped and backed away from the door.
Duo looked at the blond pilot and frowned. "Did you call for me?" he asked.
Quatre collected himself and nodded. "Yes, it's time. What were you doing in there? I thought that you had vanished…"
The braided pilot shook his head and grinned. "I felt that one of the roses were loose so I had to place it back, but I needed the bathroom mirrors to do that" he said and walked to the door. "Shall we?"

Heero shifted his weight to his other foot as he heard he music start playing. He was so nervous. He glazed at Trowa who was looking so calm that he made Heero jealous. He looked at his black shoes. `Soon…. Just have to wait for a few minutes…' he calmed himself. When he heard the gasps and ohhs from the guests, he looked up. The blue eyes grew wide at the sight of Duo.
Duo blushed as he walked down the flowery aisle with Quatre by his side. He looked at all the faces that were turned to look at him. His heart almost stopped as he saw the evil nurse that had bathed him at the hospital a few weeks back. Instead of glaring at her he smiled. The violet eyes then traveled to the person at the end of the aisle. His smile grew larger as he approached the blue eyed Wing pilot. When he finally stood by Heero's side, he felt Quatre squeeze his hand once before joining Trowa.
The couple joined hands and turned together to face the priest. The priest was an old man with thin grey hair and on his nose he balanced a pair of thin framed glasses. In his hands he held a thick bible. On the front of the bible there were two bells, a black and a white one. Quatre, Trowa and Wufei had made them especially for the marriage of the Wing pilot and the Death Scythe pilot. The marriage of the Angel and the God of Death. The ceremony lasted for about five minutes before the priest finally looked up from his bible. His old eyes fell on Heero as he asked the big question. "Do you, Heero Yuy, take Duo Maxwell to be you bellowed wif… man, to love and to hold until death do you part?*" he said and quickly corrected his little mistake.
Heero straightened his back. "I do"
The old man nodded and shifted his gaze to Duo. "Do you, Duo Maxwell, take Heero Yuy to be your bellowed man, to love and to hold until death do you part?"
Duo glazed at Heero and without doubt he answered: "I do"
The priest closed the bible and gave it to Wufei that stood behind the priest with Treize. Treize held a camera and was filming the whole wedding. A smile were on his face as he shifted the camera to film Quatre who picked a silk pillow. On the pillow rested the two golden rings. The blond walked up to the couple and offered them the rings. The priest smiled. "Put on these rings, a symbol of this joining, and carry them with pride. You have overcome many obstacles on your way to this altar. May this joining last for eternity. Exchange rings and exchange woes"
Heero took one ring and held Duo's hand in one hand. He placed the ring at the tip of Duo's ring finger. "With this ring I, Heero Yuy, promise to love, care, and be with you for the rest of my life. Whenever trouble will show its face, I'll be there to protect you. Whenever you need me, I'll be there to help you. I love you Duo Maxwell" he said and put on the ring.
Duo was in tears as he did the same to his lover. "With this ring I, Duo Maxwell, promise to be at your side to love you, care for you and protect you whenever you need me. I shall never leave your side as long as I live. I love you Heero Yuy" he sobbed at the end. He slipped on the golden ring on Heero's finger and never let go of his hands, his gaze stuck with the bobalt ones of the Wing pilot.
The priest smiled and lifted his hands. "Then I pronounce you Husband and Husband*. You may kiss your man" he said, having difficulties with the right words.
Duo embraced Heero and kissed him hard. He felt Heero's arms around him as they sealed their future.
Quatre wiped his eyes with a napkin as he leaned against Trowa. "I remember our wedding when I see them like that. I m so happy that they finally got each other"
Wufei joined the two and frowned at the blond. "When you say it like that you make it sound as they have been actors in a TV show. But even I hope that they will live happily from now on. I can't wait for our wedding. Right Treize… what the heck are you doing?" the black haired pilot asked his fiancé.
Treize was zooming in the kissing couple and wore a big smile when he did that. "Doing what?"
"Give them some privacy why don't you? Save the film until later!"
"For your information, lover, this moment is send to a very special person…."
Wufei frowned harder. "Who can that be?"
All he got was a smile.

"No! Stop them!! I can't take it!!"
"Shut up and watch! This moment is filmed just for you by our commander so be a good boy and watch it" a guard snapped at the hysterical man.
Enjou tore against the handcuffs that held him secure against the hospital bed. He was screaming and roaring, but couldn't tear his gaze away from the TV screen. His eyes burned with hatred as he saw Heero kiss the man he loved so dearly.
"I'll get you for this, Yuy. You won't have him for long…. I promise you that! I'll get my angel back…" he whispered for himself.

So, what do you think? I want you opinion… so please R&R… I beg of you!
Someone emailed me and asked me about the blood in the bathtub in the second chapter. Whose blood is it and so on… but I ain't telling you that right now. That may come up in the sequel... if there will be one that is…
* I didn't like Relina in the show so I didn't bother to write what happened to her or why the heck she even showed up at the wedding…
* This is what the priest is saying at a Swedish wedding.
* What can I say? It's not husband and wife!
