What a princess would do for her family

Chapter 44: The dresses!

Lucy's PoV

As the guild members rush towards Mira, I stand on the table. "MAKE A SINGLE LINE IN FRONT OF HER! THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT EVENTS OF THEIR LIVES! DO NOT MESS IT UP!" I grow a warning aura. They all make a line and Mira begins to call people's jobs out. The list went like this;

-Lucy and Wendy. You are the bridesmaids. As well as Galaxia.
-Natsu and Gajeel are the groomsmen. As well as Metalicana.
-Ersa and Mira are in charge of the cake.
-Levy and Lizanna are in charge of the decorations.
-Cana's in charge of the booze.
-Master and the dragon King will be the ministers.
-Evergreen and Laki are in charge of flowers.
-Romeo and the exceeds are in charge of the rings.

Natsu, Gajeel, Wendy and I decide to go to the dragon realm, in the days leading up to the wedding. "Kids! How are you!" Our dragons come running up to us as I fly my friends to the main island. "Igneel/Grandeeney/Metalicana/Galaxia!" We all cheer, with the exception of Gajeel, and hugged our dragons. "Lucy!" My parents run up to me. "Mom and Dad! I missed you so much! How are you?" I giggle as they put me in a bear hug. "We missed you too Lucy." My dad patted my head. "Let me see the ring!" My mom squealed, grabbing my left hand. "Oh it's so beautiful!" She squeals again. "But haven't you seen it before? It was your mother." Natsu steps in, grabbing me by the waist. "It changes for every couple. My mom's was green and gold, while your's is pink and silver." I mother tells us. "That's so cool that you got a ring that's been passed down from generation to generation!" Grandeeney and Galaxia squeal like my mom. "Come on! We're not here to discus Lucy-san's and Natsu-San 's relationship, we're here to prepare for your wedding!" Wendy cheers. "Okay! Natsu, Gajeel, Agnologia and Metalicana go with Igneel. And Lucy, Wendy, Gala and Grandeeney come with me!" My mom gets in the alpha seat and demands everybody to go their separate ways.

The girls and I walk to the room for the Royal jewels. "Now it's time to see the dress!" Galaxia claps her hands together gleefully. "Come on! Show us! Show us!" Wendy and I chant. "Okay, okay. I'm putting it on." Grandeeney giggles. She goes behind a changing screen, with a body model with the dress on it behind it. It takes her at least half an hour to change, and when she returns, I'm glad I was so patient. The dress was slimming with long, lace sleeves and showed off her nice figure, there were light, baby blue streams flowing down it. It went down to her feet and onwards, it flowed behind her like a waterfall. Her long white hair, now to her knee, fell down her back. For accessories she wore white and blue, high heel, gladiator shoes, (Are those even shoes XD) a white pearl bracelet and white, chain necklace with air and fire symbols as pendants. We all gasped at her beauty. "I-Is it bad?" Grandeeney stuttered nervously. "ITS GORGEOUS!" We all scream and stand up. "R-Really?" She blushed. "You look amazing mom!" Wendy runs up to her. "Thank you Wendy!" Grandeeney bent down and kissed her child on the forehead. "It needs one last touch." My mom adds, turning around and getting something from the cupboard behind her. When she turns back around there's a long, lace veil. "I wore this on my wedding day, and I want you to wear it for yours." She says with tears in her eyes. "But your highness-." Grandeeney is cut off by Gala. "Just put it on already!" She commands, waving the tears from her face. Mom places the veil on Grandeeney and brushes it down, Grandeeney then walks in front of the mirror. "Oh my god. I think I'm gonna cry." I whisper. "Same here." Wendy hugs my side. "C-Come on guys. Don't make me cry." Grandeeney squeals and we all group hug.

After hugging and crying lots, Grandeeney finally shows us our bridesmaids dresses. They're all the same design, but with different colours. They're short, strapless with a flower, coloured matching dress. Mine's a pastel pink, Wendy's is a pastel purple and Galaxia's is pastel orange. We all get jewelled, matching headbands.

After squealing, cooing and crying some more, we all get dressed back into our casual wear and head to the dinning hall to eat with the boys.

Natsu's PoV

We are lead to a large room with changing rooms. There are comfy looking couches lined up, so I decide to flop on one. "More your ass, Salamander." Gajeel grumbles. "Sit on your own one, Metal head." I grumble back. "Alright boys. Let's not fight." Metalicana goes into his sissy mode. "So. What's our first job?" I ignore Gajeel and ask my dad. "Get dressed into these, then wait out here." A maid gives each of us a tux and quickly leaves. We all go in our respected changing rooms and change. I come out last, still fiddling with my tie. "Give it here." My dad grumbles. "Thanks pops!" He tightens it sharply, cutting my air supply for a couple seconds. "You look sharp, Igneel. Never thought you'd ever look like this." Metalicana chuckles. "What are you saying, stud face?" Igneel jerks his head. "Now, now boys. I proud of you Igneel." Agnologia shakes my dad's hand, stopping their fight. "Seems you've finally matured." The King says with a lower voice, but Igneel heard him, and somehow we all had a fight.

When we were called, we go to eat with the girls. After dinner, we're all sent to bed. Apparently, Lucy and I had to sleep together, because 'they didn't have enough rooms', or so the King stated. Settling into bed, Lucy walks from the bathroom in her short night dress. "Maybe we should sleep in the same room at home as well." I suggest as she turns the ceiling light off and her bedside lamp on. "We've been sleeping in the same room more frequently, I forgot we didn't." She chuckled, getting into bed. I move closer to her and pull my arms around her. She snuggles into them as I turn her light off. Although there is plenty of room on the bed, we only use a small portion of it. "I guess we're so used to the small bed, we only need this small area." Lucy giggles, seemingly reading my mind. I chuckle at the thought and burry my head in her hair, inhaling her strawberry sent. Soon enough, we both fall asleep in each other's arms.
