Airjitzu Temple/Tabitha's POV:
A couple days have passed since we moved to the Airjitzu Temple. So far life has been pleasant. Preparations for our wedding have been running smoothly. And whenever he's not working, he's either smothering me with love in bed, or giving me beautiful jewels as gifts.
Yugataro's clones have been working quickly and efficiently to get everything ready, and for it to be perfect. The temple looks way cleaner than before, and many decorations have been placed around the halls of the Airjitzu temple.
But to be honest... I'm terrified. This is not how I want to get married. I want to be surrounded by my friends, my family, even all of Ninjago to celebrate my engagement. Not just with Yugataro.
Whenever I try to give my opinion towards something, he brushes me off and does something else. Last time I tried suggesting that we should invite Nelson, Mullo, and Lou, but he growled at me and said 'no'.
He said that they gave away our location and were no longer our friends. This shocks me, terribly. He continued working and told me to wait for him in his room.
That's not the only strange thing that's been happening around here. During certain parts of the day, Yugataro goes into Lloyd's old room secretively. He also doesn't want me calling him 'Cole' anymore.
This breaks my heart. He's now a completely different being from the person that I once knew and loved. I cried silent tears on the way to my room that day.
Today, I wake up to something different. I open my eyes to see Yugataro on top of me! His excited expresssion and smiling fangs look down at me.
"Good morning, my dear!" The ghost grins happily at me. "Time to get up!"
"How can I, when you're on top of me?" I asks with a small giggle.
He laughs and gets off of me. Then he stands next to the bed, and crosses his arms. Yugataro seems to be in a very good mood.
"Someone seems excited about something!" I say, combing my hair with a nearby brush. I gently put my hair in a low ponytail, and place the brush on my side table.
"Of course I am!" Yugataro exclaims sweetly. "Our wedding is tomorrow, and everything is perfectly set up. Plus I have another surprise for you!"
I look up at him questionably. "Really?!"
"Yep!" The ghost takes out a rectangular box, and hands it to me. "It's another pre-wedding gift!"
"Awww~!" I gasp in surprise. "Oh sweetheart, you don't have to keep on getting me all these presents!"
"Well, why not?" He kneels alongside my bed. "I want to be the best future husband that I can be! Plus I want to apologize for yelling at you the day before."
I look at him sympatheticly, nodding my head, accepting his apology. I give him a kiss on the lips, then open my present. Inside of the box was a beautiful gem necklace, using the same Aurora Green diamonds as the one I would use for my ring.
"Oh my god." I exhale in awe. "This is gorgeous. It even matches my ring!" The necklace sparkled when sunlight hit the green diamonds. "Thank you." Yugataro helps me put on the necklace, and then kisses my forehead lovingly.
"I have to go somewhere for a little bit to get more things for the wedding." Yugataro states. "But I'll be back, hopefully by the end of the day."
"Can't I come with—." I try to ask but I'm interrupted.
"No!" Yugataro says firmly. "People already know of your disguise and your fake name. I don't want to risk anyone finding, and hurting you again. Understand?" He raises an eyebrow at me.
