Keeper of the Wand

Small Space, Large Talks

Hey guys! We're back with Rose and the gang as things continue to get a little weird. What will happen today? Let's jump in and find out! :D

-Rose's POV-

I sat in the aisle seat next to Tom as Foolduke and Ruberiot walked towards each other in front of the silent mime. I smiled as I watched Ruberiot and Foolduke take each other's hands, looking at each other lovingly. Star, Marco and I had been invited to their wedding. We all were surprised that they were engaged when we got the letter, but we agreed to go. Star was wearing a long, sea green sleeveless dress that tied around her neck, held up by a pale bone pin. It had a green dinosaur at the bottom, whose tail wrapped around the bottom of the dress, almost touching the dinosaur on the front. She had a teal belt around her waist, a pink beaded bracelet, earrings to match her dress, and flats to match her bracelet. And to top it all off, she wore her infamous, hot pink horned headband.

I had on a long, white sleeveless dress. On it were blue and red butterflies of different shades. I had a blue beaded bracelet on my right wrist and for shoes, simple white flats. I had a small, red rose hair clip in my hair, since Star insisted that I wear it. Marco was wearing a dark gray suit, with a blue tie. Since Marco, Star and I were allowed to bring a plus one, I brought Tom with me, and Marco brought Kelly. Tom was wearing the same outfit he wore for the Blood Moon ball. I asked why he was wearing it and said his other suit was getting cleaned. Kelly wore a simple yellow dress and white shoes, her hair tied back in it's normal purple band.

We all watched as Foolduke said, "I take you, Ruberiot."

"I take you, Foolduke," Ruberiot said.

"In sickness and in health, 'til death do we part. Through pirate attacks, monster raids, and corn famine. I do!" They said together. Foolduke grabbed Ruberiot by the waist, dipped him back, and kissed him. Everybody started to clap and cheer. Even Star stood up and said, "Aww, mazel tov!"

The ceremony ended and the after party immediately began. Wedding guests started to mingle and mill about, either taking to the dance floor or heading straight to the buffet table. Tom and I walked around, hand in hand, looking around at everyone's happy faces. I sighed and leaned my head on Tom's shoulder, "Isn't this just beautiful?"

Tom nodded and opened his mouth to say something. But Star came up to us and asked, "Hey, have either of you guys seen Pony Head? I invited her but she hasn't responded to any of my messages."

"Maybe that's a good thing?" Tom commented. I elbowed him in the ribs and he winced in pain. I let go of Tom's hand and placed it on Star's shoulder. "Maybe she's just busy? Come on, I'm sure there's something fun for you to do."

"Yeah," Tom agreed, rubbing his side. "The photo booth is-"

"Photo booth!" Star gasped and I slowly started to step away from Star. But she grabbed my wrist and said, "Oh no you don't! Pony Head isn't here and I need a buddy to take pictures with!"

"Tom! Help!" I screamed as Star dragged me away. Tom gave me a half-lidded look and said, "Well, I'm just gonna go get some pie, then."

I rolled my eyes; my knight in shiny armor. Star dragged me to the photo booth and let me go just so that she could step inside. As she did, I noticed Marco and Kelly walking by. Marco glanced at me, and I muttered, "Save yourself."

"What?" He asked, not catching what I said. Before I could repeat myself, Star poked her head out from the photo booth. She gasped when she saw Marco and said, "Marco, Marco, Marco! You can't leave yet. We gotta take pictures!"

"But I gotta take Nachos home and feed her," Marco protested, lifting the keys to his dragoncycle. Star rushed out of the photo booth, took the keys, handed them to Kelly, and looped her arm through Marco's. "Kelly can do it! Let's go! You too, Rose!" Star said, looping her other arm through mine.
