Gem "That's the spirit," I said, smiling at her. "I know these things a re a little daunting but frankly, its all about you two. No one else matters that will be there, my own was harder seeing as my father is not liked by many of the guests that were there for Auraka and me." I smiled. "But I still managed to pull through and he went home in one piece much to my relief. He's staying with us again though at the moment, seeing as he wanted a bit of early notice when I was almost due. You'll see him over there, seeing as Drannor was eager to have him there as well if he was staying with us." I remembered the little foot note that had been on the invitation, in Drannor's writing: If your father is staying with you, Gem, tell him he is more than welcome to come as well. I would like to see him again. Drannor I chuckled. "My father was definately surprised by that guesture, indeed." I then remembered what she had asked me, just as there was a knock on the door. "Wait here," I said. Then I walked over to the door and answered it, making sure it was not Drannor. "Hello," I said to the man standing there. "Is this Sahar Ashia's house?" the man asked. "It is. Did Drannor send you?" "Of course he did." The man stepped out of the doorway, giving me a glance at the old purple hotrod car that was decorated for the wedding. "I'll go get her," I said, smiling at him. I shut the door and headed back to her. "You ready to go, Sahar? Our transport's here, though I was planning on driving by myself over there."

Sahar smiled weakily and nodded, she knew that Drannor had done that. She wanted him there, he seemed like a nice man despite being who he was. "Who was it?" she asked, frowning as she would and pulled her children into her arms and walked to the window to peer out and her jaw dropped. "Oh Drannor," she said and giggled and looked at Gem. "I just love old cars! And this one is just...amazing," she said and her eyes shone and gestured for her to lead the way.

Gem I laughed happily. "My father wanted to see you guys again. He mentioned something about wanting to at least get to know some of the other guys here on freindly terms." I smiled, "Come on, but you wont be able to hold Kasinda and Taeron, during the ceremony, nor while you dance." I opened the door and headed out with her.
"Good morning," the man said standing next to the car. His grey-blue eyes seemed to sparkle as he saw the pair of us come out to him. "You must be Miss Sahar," he said, smiling at Sahar.

"Oh," Sahar said as if she hadn't thought of it. "Maybe I wont be able to dance..." she said, hope clear in her voice. She wasn't a dancer, last time she had danced she had fallen right onto her face.
As they headed outside, she nodded to the man standing there but blushed lightly as he called her 'miss Sahar'. "That's me," she said brightly, lifting her dress so it wouldn't track in the mud.

Gem I laughed. "I dont think Drannor will let you slide out of doing that, Sahar. He looks forwards to this too much, and I doubt he'd let you embarrass yourself. I danced with him at my own remember? He is a good dancer, though a lot more patient than I am at times."
The man chuckled. "Drannor sent me to take you over to your wedding, mam." He bowed polietly. "Thought you'd like this, he did."
I smiled as I thought about that. I could tell that Sahar clearly did like Drannor's little idea. It was something he liked indeed.

Sahar blushed as he called her 'mam' but didn't say anything, rather looked over the car. It's bright purple paint and old car style made her heart melt, the white ribbons on the front marked it as a wedding and made her smile. "He knows me well," she said after a moment and turned to the man "I love it..." She ran a hand along the roof, loving the glossy feeling of the car and flashed Gem and smile. "Maybe I will...but what about these two?" she asked her, not wanting to but her children down for a moment. They made her day that much more special.

Gem Lamya "I can keep an eye on them, when I am not preoccupied by Auraka. Plus my dad said that if anyone needed help with anything then he would. So I am sure he would not mind watching them for a bit. He loves children to mch. Two is nothing for him, he had to deal with three once. Myself and my two recently deceased sisters." That still hit hard when I thought about the way my sisters had been murdered, all because of a bookstore that my mother had owned, that I had recently inherited but did not want. It was not fair that someone could be so cruel just because my mother had not wanted to see Hawksong Books knocked to the ground because of some fancy mall. Other than my father, I was the last true Hawksong alive. I chuckled. "I'm sure things will all work out. You'll see." "Well hop in ladies," the man said.
Drannor Silverleaf I sighed as I pulled up at the church. "I don't use this car much, don't like people knowing that I have a good amount of money behind me." I had inherited a lot of money recently, and that was something that I was a little skeptic about. What had happened to my entire family to cause me to get so much money in the bank? I smiled though as I turned the car off, noticing a few of the other lads were staring as I got out of the flashy car. They were all too used to seeing my old grey dinted Ford Station wagon.

Auraka nodded, he was the same though didn't actually buy a flashy car in the first place. He thought his old white ute was good enough, despite being somewhat filthy on the outside it was still well looked after inside. "Yeah, I need to buy a new car...for Gem and the kids," he said as a thought and climbed out of the car gracefully.
Sahar flashed the man and smile, an climbed into the car before answering Gem. "We'll see," she said shyly, not wanting to dance but knowing Drannor would get her to. Anything he asked, she would do. If he said jump off a bridge (though she hoped he wouldn't) she would gladly fall to her death.

Drannor "I have not used this in a long while, I had to get the battery working last night. It did not want to start, been about 3 months since I've driven in it." I chuckled though as I saw all the faces around us. "Did Gem's father come?" "I did," replied another voice and there he was coming over to us. "Nice to see you both again."
gem I laughed. "You know him better than I do, Sahar. There is no doubt in my mind though that he will not do anything silly though." That was saying something.

Auraka nodded his head, mouth opening to answer but the General had already replied for himself. "Good to see you again General," he said with a smile, though he was currently living with them. "Seems you are one for the weddings," he grinned gesturing to the church. His and Gem's wedding, now Drannor's and Sahar's.

Drannor "With a family as big as mine, I daresay I would have to be. Firs Laura and me, then her two sisters, now my three beautiful girls, Gem being last though she's eldest." Zelphar paused. "Plus I am certainly into this sort of thing when it comes to my own religion." I chuckled. "Definately a big family then."

Auraka nodded in agreement, smiling warmly at both his friends. He counted the General as a friend as well as family, here they weren't against each other, here they were somewhat understandable relationship. Maybe it was because they both held Gem dear, and her up coming children.
Sahar looked over at Gem, her hands slightly shaking and put on a brave face. "Can you give the children to your father? Sadly I cannot walk down the isle with them....when we get there I mean," she asked quietly

Gem "I'm sure my father wont mind keeping them safe for you. He knows you're a very close freind to me." I smiled though, resting one hand on my belly as one of my kids kicked. "Ouch. Thats the first time one's kicked at me." It had not really hurt, it was just a little bit of a shock for me that was all, to feel such a thing happen inside of me.
Drannor I smiled at them both, I was getting used to the italian General being around here. He was family to Auraka now, and i would not dare do anything. "We better get inside, they'll be on their way." "I might wait out here for them, Gem asked me to."

Sahar chuckled and gave her a knowning smile, and rested her own hand beside Gem's and eyes widened slightly at the power of the kick. "Your's seem a little strong then mine," she agreed smiling down at her own children "mine seem to...gentle to do much more then roll around."
Auraka nodded and smiled to the General. "Taking Sahar's children?" he asked, knowing that she would want to carry them all day but would not be able to. He lent a little closer to whisper something in his ear. "Keep an eye on Gem...she's due soon.." he said, worrying slightly about her. But it was Gem he knew, she would never be able to sit still for more then a moment.

Gem I rubbed my belly. "They have active parents, so it would only seem fair that the kids will be as well." I laughed though, knowing that there was nothing wrong at the moment. Even so, she knew i would be staying close to Auraka for the day.
Drannor "yeah, I'll keep an eye on her when she's not with you, Auraka," Zelphar replied. "I know she is close, else I'd not be here." "Well if that settled, we better get inside," I replied.
