Moonlight Dances

Chapter 11: Navy

(Y'all, I don't know how to plan a wedding so I'm just doing what I think goes on. I can't even ask my parents-)

"Do you remember me? I'm Nejire!" She said. If he was able to blush, he would panic and be a red mess.

"I- I remember."

"You haven't called yet! I thought you forgot about me."

"I- I don't have a phone." He answered. She nodded and smiled.

"Well that's ok! I'd ask if you wanted to swim with us but..."

"It's fine, even if I were dressed, I can't swim." He sighed. He felt sad. He had been thinking of her for a while now, now they met again and he wasn't prepared. Nejire sat down next to him and laughed.

"So, which house are you at?"

"The one behind us, right there." He pointed up. "My uncle isn't home right now so I just took a walk outside." He said. Nejire nodded. Her male friend called out to her, telling Nejire she should probably get in the water.

"I'm coming Mirio!"

Mirio?

"I'll be back in a few minutes Tamaki!"

"Bye." He said. Nejire took off her jacket, revealing a white swimsuit. He didn't want to look at her in such a way. It felt wrong.

He watched her and her friends play in the water. It must've been somewhat warm from how none of them shivered. As they played in the water like children, Tamaki started thinking about Mirio. He knew a guy named Mirio.

He was his only friend until eighth grade. Eighth grade was when he ran off because he became a vampire. Well, not completely a vampire. He had never bitten anyone so he was still... what was the word? Fledgling (I'm vomiting over this world omg.)

So yeah, he ran off and left Mirio in the dust. He prayed he didn't get closer and recognize him. Were vampires technically demons? Would his prayers be answered? He was no longer a human, would that mean his prayers would never be answered? He didn't know so, he just got up and left. There was no point, it's not like his prayers would be answered, Mirio would definitely recognize him if he stayed.

Hey, maybe he could see her tomorrow?

(You see this is actually important, not me wanting my ship to be here-)

It had been a long day. Ryuko had gone to ballet classes and done her normal routine. She felt like she was only working on complete caffeine though. Shinya told her not to overwork herself while he was gone. He was at work, and the wedding was in a few months. She had to work hard. They had been planning on getting married when they were still dating so they were going on what they had planned earlier.

She was seriously working on pure caffeine. Shinya joked about her burning out a few times, but with how much she was doing, it might not be a joke anymore.

She went for another drink of coffee but her wrist was grabbed softly. She paused and looked behind her.

"Hey Shinya." She said. She puckered her lips and he bent down so she could kiss his forehead. She turned the office chair around and stuck her tongue out. "I thought you had work tonight as well?" She said and stood up.

"Nah, I had the chance to get off so I took it." He kissed her forehead and they sat down. She knew his line of work was dangerous. To be honest she didn't believe him when he admitted his work. Thought he was quite crazy to be honest. Then, he explained and it made more sense.

"What flowers should we have?" He asked.

"What color should the wedding be? I think light purple would be heavenly." She suggested.

"Navy blue would look nice. Light purple is cool too. Maybe we should get a second opinion."

There were a few issues with planning. They wrote everything down. Things were much harder than a normal planning. They rushed the date because of his work. Sometimes, there was no guarantee he would come back home. They just wanted to get married. Now, they had at least four months to plan a damn wedding.

"I'm going shopping for a wedding dress soon." She laughed. "I'm trying to think of colors that look nice with the bridal party. My niece, Rumi, Emi, Nejire. The only color I think would work well with most of them is pink."

"Navy blue works well with pink."

"You really want Navy blue, don't you?"

"It's a nice color." He laughed.

"True."

So they put it on the list.

(I can hear y'all laughing at my attempt of writing this.)

(back to Tam tam)

When Taishiro returned home, Tamaki was inside watching tv with Momo. Momo waved at her dad and Taishiro waved back.

"Oh hey Tamaki! Sorry I couldn't be here earlier." He apologized. Tamaki waved back nervously. "If you're staying over, you can sleep in Eijirou's room. He has a futon. Or do you need sleep?"

"I-I'm fine." He could just watch TV all night. Momo didn't sleep very often so it wasn't a big deal. He had someone to hang out with. He'd rather not hang out with people, but Momo was ok...

"Well, get comfortable!"

Tamaki felt bad for leaving. Nejire might've come back, maybe she wouldn't. It made him feel guilty for leaving. He just felt uncomfortable staying while she had fun with a friend he once had.

As he was thinking, Taishiro's phone rang. He seemed slightly irritated by the call, but politely left the room. It was his sister.

(Peewoop, if you get this, you are amazing)

Momo was watching the 'Good Doctor' like she would die if it turned off. She said 'it reminded her of a friend'. Tamaki found it pretty good. Shawn was adorable and reminded him of himself a bit.

"Oh god!" Momo said, watching someone being operated on, while they were awake. It made her a bit nauseous.

Tamaki continued to think about Nejire, he thought about going back out and talking with her, but she probably went back inside by now. It had been about an hour since he went inside.

So... now he had a guilty conscience for leaving Nejire outside! Yay!

(👉🏽👈🏾 I lied, that Ryushot bit was totally me wanting my ship to have some action, and introduce the reason the wedding was so soon after he proposed. Peewoop!)
