Hidden Identity(Piratetale Crossmare)

Chapter XXVI- Today Is The Day

Don't play the music yet!

(Also I know this song has been used in my stories for weddings and it's a bit overused but I felt like this song is just right for a wedding)

Timeskip to 1 Month~

Cross' P.O.V

Today is the day.......I'm so worried.

I know Nightmare loves me and I love him but, well. What if he says 'I don't' or what if Dream still likes me and tries to kill him? Oh god, this is my wedding day and I can't do this!

C'mon Cross! You're the Shark Slayer! You've killed many, yet you can't do a wedding!

"Cross?"

I turned to see Dream in his black suit with golden thread lining. He also wore a golden tie.

"You're stressed, calm down, nothing bad will happen!" Dream tried to reassure me but it wasn't helping.

I looked down at my black suit with red lining and my red tie with a white X on it.(I wanted to make Cross seem more masculine and since I always write dresses, I thought it'd be nice to make Cross wear a suit)

I gulped, this is not helping. I noticed that my stomach was bulging and that made me self conscious. I heard the bell ring and I immediately felt a new level of panic.

Play the music!

I walked down the aisle with friends on my side. I noticed Nightmare was in passive form and he looked as nervous as I was. Once I reached the alter with the priest there. I knew this priest and his name is literally Alter, he's a skeleton just Nightmare and I.

If you want you can stop the music now~

"Ladies and Gentle-monsters. We're here to celebrate the gathering of these two souls. The Prince Of Negativity and Our Shark Slayer Cross" Alter smiled warmly.

I silently giggled. Nightmare looked agitated. I'm pretty sure he prefers King of Nightmare's.

"Do you Nightmare, take Cross as your lawfully wedded husband?"

Here it comes!!

"I do"

RELIEF!!

"And do you Cross, take Nightmare to be your lawfully wedded husband?"

"With all of my soul, I do"

Nightmare looked relieved.

"With the power invested in me(and the fandom!). You may now kiss the groom"

I walked up to Nightmare and gave him a sweet kiss.

Cheers we're heard and we grinned.

"Let's celebrate with cake!"

Everyone rushed to the dining room and we all had a lovely time celebrating....

Timeskip to the next day~

I woke up tired and groggy. Man, a wedding really sucks the life out of you. I sat up rubbing my sockets and looked to the side where Nightmare was still out cold. I got out of the comfortable bed sheets and grabbed my jacket. Recently my cloak has been cursed so I just enchanted my jacket and kept lots of stuff in it.

I looked into the mirror and rubbed my belly. I walked down the stairs with the help of maids. Dangit Nighty! Why did you tell everyone to help me!?

"We're sorry sir but Prince Nightmare told us to help you support your weight, Prince Cross" a maid said as we reached the last step of stairs. I forgot I'm a prince now because I married a prince.

I walked gently so they didn't have to worry about me. I didn't have anything to do so I went to the library. I grabbed a book, walked to the fireplace where I usually sat at and sat down to read....

Nightmare's P.O.V

I woke up with an absence by my side. I looked groggily to the side and saw Cross had already left. I sat up and got out of bed quickly. I climbed down the stairs literally and rushed to a maid.

"Where is Cross?!"

"He's in the library sir!"

I ran towards the library and heard soft humming. I got in and ran to the fireplace where Cross usually sat at. I saw him reading a book with a content smile on his face.

I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey Cross" I greeted.

He looked up and smiled brightly.

"Hello sleepyhead, how was your rest?"

"Calming, relaxing, luxurious since I barely sleep nowadays" I sighed, sitting down next to him and leaning my head on the crook of his neck.

Cross chuckled.

"Well, you are very busy since you still do work"

"I want to stay home and relax but for the sake of my crew I can't just lay back and relax, I wanna relax like you..." I mumbled.

"I'm not relaxing either, with the baby kicking and everyone fussing over me, I can barely even have some time alone, not even in this library!"

I laughed as I heard some maids run away as they were caught.

"I guess thats my fault, isn't it?"

"You're darn right its your fault!"

Cross gave me a glare and I just chuckled. Cross shut his book leaned back into the comfy sofa. He shut his sockets and sighed.

I took this time to examine his face. He looked calm and docile, the thing that really put me off is the light bags under his sockets. I thought he slept well?

"Cross?"

"Yes Nighty?"

He lazily opened one socket.

"Haven't you been sleeping well?" I asked, I am honestly concerned.

He sighed agitated.

"Usually I am very relaxed, its not Incubux who's causing me problems with relaxing. Its the entire castle. I like having alone time very often but nowadays I can't because the maids keep fussing over me! Everytime I shut my socket they throw a blanket over me and kept asking me questions whether I'm comfortable or not!"

I saw him frown in annoyance. I guess Cross is used to being alone and independent. He doesn't like people helping him unless he really needs help.

"But they are doing it for the safety of our child"

"Yes but you know that I like being alone and I don't like being fussed over! It makes me annoyed! I can't even read without being watched!"

Cross seemed agitated so I carefully rubbed his shoulders. He sighed and calmed down.

This is the first I've seen Cross actually agitated. Usually he jokes around with being agitated but he's really serious this time.

"Sorry love, there isn't much I can do about this since I want you to be fine"

"Whatever, I'm going to eat"

Cross stood up and started walking. I stood up to help him but he gave me a glare. I froze and just stood still. His glare eased up and was replaced with a calm look. I just walked behind him.

When a maid saw him he glared at her and she cowered beneath his stare. I'm guessing they really don't want Cross to be angry.

He sat down with the crew and waited for food to come. I sat next to him and listened to the small conversations they were having.
