Nat led little Kari back to her parents as she went to go stand beside Rei who looked at her curiously.
"Anything wrong?" Rei asked her girlfriend.
"No, just had a minor...incident in the bathroom." Nat said not wanting to imply anything more than that.
"Oh gross, I don't think I want to hear what Kari did in there." Rei whispered. Nat was glad that's all Rei thought it was. She now watched as Rick's family and Julia's family gathered around to proceed with the wedding. Nat remembered overhearing Julia and Claudia in the bathroom talk about a big fancy wedding instead of a courthouse wedding. She then had an idea as she whispered something to Rei and proceeded to use the ring and made an illusion of a grand, fancy, wedding in what looked like a church. Rei limited the illusion however to herself, Rei, Rick, Julia, and Claudia, everyone else was none the wiser.
Julia was confused for a moment before looking at Nat and Rei and realized that this was their doing and to just keep quiet about it and act like it was just a courthouse wedding. The judge of the courthouse read from his book then asked if the bride and groom wanted to have words to each other. Rick nodded and went first.
"Julia, I know you didn't plant exactly what your future would be, but I promise to be the best man for you in your life. Through the good days and the bad days, I'll be there for us." Rick said looking at his wife, who in Nat's illusion was wearing her dream wedding dress.
"Rick...I didn't know what kind of a man I would marry. But since you came along, I know the kind of man I wanted to marry, it's you, Rick Moreland." Julia said with a warm smile.
Claudia knew the real circumstances of the wedding was about, but still to see the illusion brought tears to her eyes trying to keep from crying.
"So I now pronounce you....have you decided on a last name?" The judge asked them.
"Moreland-Harris." Julia replied.
"Mr. and Mrs. Moreland-Harris." The judge finished as Rick and Julia kissed prompting Nat to finish the illusion. Julia had been holding a small bouquet of flowers which she had brought into the court house and tossed aside, they were caught by Spark who looked towards Connor and both of them gave each other a bright red blush across the face.
"That was really sweet of you." Rei whispered to Nat.
***************************************
Soon enough, everyone had left the court house and proceeded on their way. Derrick and Morgan went on their honeymoon, as did Rick and Julia. Rick told his brother we was going all out for his new wife and was taking her to a Hawaiian resort. Nat walked Rei to her house after a long trip and said good night to her giving her girlfriend a passionate kiss on the lips. Nat excitedly zipped home with her heart beating a mile a minute. She knew she would get a little lecture from her mom from using her vampire speed, but she didn't care.
Meanwhile Spark and Connor returned to the Moreland home with Jacob and Nina in tow. Spark helped Nina inside while Jacob asked Spark to sit outside with him for a moment.
"So, your uncle told me you and Spark's little dance." Jacob said.
"Uh, yeah dad. It kind of came as a shock to me." Connor admitted.
"Well, I'm not going to try and stop your future marriage or anything, so don't worry about that." Jacob said.
"Oh, okay good." Connor said breathing a sigh of relief.
"But I did want to talk to you about something else....sex." Jacob said.
"Oh no, dad please not the sex talk." Connor sighed.
"Don't blame me, this was your mom's idea. She's inside giving a...'similar' talk to Spark." Jacob said.
Inside, Spark and Nina were sitting on their couch as Nina had been explaining about human sex, Spark was now explaining to her, fairy sex.
"So my mom tried to tell me that it's kind of like...how a butterfly does it. A fairy will lay her eggs, but the fairy eggs don't exactly hatch at the same time, but the mother and partner both take turns protecting the eggs until they've all finally hatched." Spark explained.
"Oh, the stories I'm going to tell these two one day." Nina said patting her stomach.
