Different (a MIKA fanfic)

We'll see

We spent the next few weeks planning the wedding. We had one week by the hospital where I had checkups and things, then we were back home for nearly 3 weeks until I had to go back to the hospital for the reveal.

I couldn't wait to see it and neither could MIKA. We traveled down in the morning and arrived for my appointment at lunchtime where we were called into a small room and all the bandages were taken off. I was then told go look in the mirror.

The feeling was indescribable. It's similar, in a way, to the feeling of getting your hair cut when you are a trans guy; what you see in the mirror finally looks like you. I felt free and overjoyed. It was overwhelming but amazing.

"Wow..." MIKA gasped where he saw it. He had never seen me without a binder but even then, it was a huge difference.

He took my hand and stood beside me to look in the mirror at the two of us. He just grinned while I laughed quietly in disbelief.

"Are you guys magicians?!" I turned to the doctors behind me.

"Oh no! He's worked out our secret!" One of then replied causing the room to erupt with chuckling people. MIKA and I were still overwhelmed so everything seemed funny.

We were soon headed home with instructions on caring for scars and keeping everything clean. We hadn't got much left to do now with regards to the wedding  so we were relaxing and spending time together.

We also looked into the kids and found a lot. We were reasonably prepared for the appointments that we had made and we were ready for this.

WE'RE HAVING CHILDREN!!!

Hopefully anyway.

MIKA had booked some meetings and appointments for us to go and organise things and choose a surrogate mother. It was all very exciting.

We were now sitting together back at home, looking for short honeymoons seeing as we had a tour to finish after the wedding. We were to be getting married on a Saturday and then we had until the next Saturday to do whatever before the last weeks of tour so we had 6 days or less of honeymoon.

"How about here?" He pointed to the screen. "Maui in Hawaii. It looks beautiful."

"Woah. That's freaking romantic"

He scrolled through the photos of the 4 seasons hotel. It looked perfect for us and like so much fun.

"I agree. Let's book it!" He grinned.

MIKA put in our details and booked the hotel. He then sorted flights and all the other things that we would need.

"That's the honeymoon and nearly everything sorted for the wedding"

MIKA nodded and quickly leant in and kissed me. He was careful of my chest but still passionate and loving.

"We're getting married soon" I whispered against his lips.

"Sure are." He pulled back and stared at me with a smirk on his face.

"We need to sort out our best men, readers, witnesses, ushers and anyone else important. I also need to write a speech." I took his hand and fiddled with his fingers, never taking my eyes off of him.

"Ok so who shall we have? Readers first"

"I don't know. Luna can be a witness though"

"Ok. I think my mum should read and Kirsty maybe."

"Cool. Now the other witness"

"Paloma"

"Ushers"

"Let's have two between us rather than two each. We don't know that many people."

"Ok but who?"

"Well who's going to be your best man?"

"I was thinking Max maybe seeing as I don't know many people at all and I get on with him well."

"Thought so. I will ask Fort to be mine but I think Curtis and... Sam?"

"Ok sure. So that's best men, readers, ushers, witnesses... Anyone else?"

"I don't think so. We've also got to send the invitations soon. I designed them online and they will be printed and sent to everyone so now just to call everyone that we just decided on and ask them." MIKA picked up his phone and rang his mum.

"Hello mum... Ok. I have a question for you. Would you like to read at the wedding?... Thank you. I'll send you the poem... Good. Can you pass me to Fort please... Love you too"

Fortune and Paloma had gone back home by now so they were with MIKA's mum again.

"Hey Fort. So I have a question for you... How would you like to be my best man?... Lovely. I'm glad. Thank you brother... Alright can I speak to Paloma please..." MIKA cheerily spoke.

The one sided conversations were strange to listen to.

MIKA went on and asked Paloma before speaking to Yasmine and Zuleika. I just watched him with loving eyes as he talked; his voice soothing and music to my ears. I'm so glad he loves me back!

He hung up the phone before kissing me and helping me get rest for bed. It was a difficult task but we were getting used to it seeing as he had been helping me like this for a few weeks, since the operation. I could also move my arms better now but not well enough to do much.

We settled down and tangled ourselves extremely carefully together before drifting off to sleep.

What a day that had been. I saw my chest post op and it was amazing. Soon it will be healed and things will be better than normal with MIKA and I. I think we might be shirtless a lot! 

We'll see...
