Drabble Eighty-Two - The Wedding

#82

~Sang~

I had a familiar craving for bananas and yogurt, and when I opened the fridge there was only coconut flavor.

Who even liked coconut flavoring? It was disgusting. Like someone had poured dirty water into milk. Wrong. Just wrong.

"Peanut!"

I turned around, leaving my disgusting yogurt in the fridge but keeping the banana in hand.

"Honey!"

He looked as if he was about to say something but paused and looked me up and down. His forehead creased as he frowned.

"Why aren't you dressed?" he asked. I looked down at myself. White t-shirt and jeans.

"I'm pretty certain I'm dressed," I said slowly. I was rather sure I wasn't naked.

"You're wearing that to my wedding?!" he screeched. Nathan Griffin. Screeched.

First coconut flavored yogurt and now a screeching guy? Was the world trying to curse me?

"What wedding?"

He pursed his lips in an oddly girlish way.

"The wedding between me, and the love of my life, silly!"

I blinked.

"Who's the love of your life again?"

"Max! The most handsome Labrador in all the land!"

What the hell?

Yet, I had a sense of deja vu. The banana and yogurt. The wedding. The wedding where Nathan married a male Labrador called Max...

Oh no. No. Noooooooooooo.

I felt something behind me and turned around.

Oh yes.

"Sang, babes, glad you could make it!" Max said in that high pitched girly voice. Max was in his wedding dress again, this time in an odd coral shade, stood on his hind legs. I pinched the bridge of my nose.

"Why am I back here?"

"Oh, honey, didn't you realize?" Max said sympathetically, "you didn't finish the dream. You left too soon."

I stared for a moment.

"I didn't finish the dream?"

"O. M. G! You're so new at this, aren't you, babes?" Max giggled. Freaking giggled. "You didn't see our wedding. You know, between me and the sexy redhead?" He threw a wink at Nathan who grinned.

"Please never say that again."

"Babes, you know it's true."

I glanced at Nathan. He was good looking, and he did have red hair, but I wouldn't exactly say 'sexy redhead'.

I tried to recall the dream before.

"I'm the best man, right?"

"Right. And these guys are the bridesmaids!"

Max gestured with his hand...With his paw, and the others walked out. Still in those obnoxiously pink dresses, wearing headbands with little purple bows on the top.

That was new.

Gabriel spun in a circle and the dress went a little higher than what I wanted to see. At least in a dream.

"I designed them myself, Trouble!"

"Yeah. Um... Lovely."

Mr. Blackbourne looked slightly reluctant to be in his dress, but Dr. Green looked like he was having fun. Way too much fun.

I shook my head slowly, before turning back to the... Um... Blushing bride,

"The sooner we start this, the sooner it ends, right?"

Max's tongue darted out and licked around his mouth, muzzle, as he nodded.

"Totes got that right, babes. Hit it DJ!"

The lights around my living room dimmed and the floor opened up as a platform was raised up. It looked like the setting for some cheap Vegas wedding.

My eyes caught on the DJ. Dr. Roberts, wearing a backwards baseball cap and bling. Oh dear god.

I took in a deep breath and readied myself as some sort of dubstep version of 'Here Comes the Bride' came on.

Time for Nathan and Max to get married.
