A week had past since the wonderful proposal. And they hadn't told anyone, yet. Since then, they were trying to plan how to go about actually getting married.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Saitama had stayed another night at Saya's (nothing happened lol).

Saya was sitting at the table, looking through a wedding catalog while Saitama made them some tea.

Saya sighed to herself. She was loving the bridal gowns, but something about this just didn't feel right to her. She didn't want anything big or extravagant. Nothing fancy or gaudy. And she KNOWS for a fact that Saitama does not want to spend so much on a wedding. And honestly, neither did she. Even so, she still wanted to make this memorable. Saya rested her chin on top of her hand, thinking.

As she did so, Saitama walked over with their tea when he noticed the catalog, "What's that you're looking at?"
Saya sighed, keeping her gaze at the pictures, "It's a wedding catalog."
Saitama sat down next to her, putting their tea down and looking over her shoulder. He saw the dresses and saw the prices going well over 500,000 yen. (Translated roughly into $5,000 in USD)

"Are you kidding?! There's no way we can afford that, let alone a big wedding!" Saitama looked like he was about to blow a fuse.

Saya just sighed, "Relax, I wasn't even going to ask. I don't want a fancy wedding, nor am I going to want to buy something to only wear it once."

Saitama relaxed and looked at her, "Well, we can always just put in an application for our marriage license. It'll cost next to nothing, too."

Saya leaned more into her palm, thinking about it. Then suggested, "Why not get registered at City Hall and have a civil wedding?"
"How does that work?" Saitama questioned. Saya then proceeded to explain to him how it works and all the requirements for it.(A/N: I'm not putting down specifics because I'm lazy. Look it up. It's a lot of stuff. :P)

After the explanation, Saitama grumbled to himself for a moment, throwing his head back, "That sounds like a lot of hard work. Why can't we just put in the application, instead?"

Saya frowned at him, "Look, I know you don't like to take anything seriously, but in case you've forgotten, you're the one who asked me to marry you! That's a life long commitment and that takes 'hard work'!"
"Why are you getting mad?! I'm just saying it'd be easier to do it the other way!" Saitama barked back.

"Marriage is a big deal! It may be easier for most to do it that way, but it should, at least, be memorable!!" Saya was now fuming.

While they were arguing, they heard a knock at the door and stopped. Looking toward the corridor that led to the door, Saitama wondered, "Who could that be?"

Saya ignored him, got up and went over to the door. When she opened it, she saw it was Genos, "Genos, hey," she greeted.

"Hello, Ms. Saya. I have not heard from Master for a few days, so I thought I would stop by," Genos told her, "May I come in?"
"Uh, sure thing," Saya stepped to the side, letting the cyborg in.

As she closed the door, Genos couldn't help but ask, "My apologies for asking, but upon my arrival I heard some shouting. Is everything alright?"
Saya hesitated before answering carefully, "Uh, n-no, everything's fine. Saitama and I just had a disagreement."
"That's an understatement!" Saitama shouted from his spot in the living room.

The argument picked up again as Saya began her march back to the living room, "You think finalizing something so important is not worth your time!! That's why I'm getting angry!"
Sparks of anger were flying as they continued going at one another like cats and dogs.
