Well, the bachelorette party went off without a hitch and River and Haruo were free to get hitched at any time. This proved to be the longest week of their lives, all things considered as they couldn't keep their hands off each other. However they tried... Haruo went fishing...a lot... and River painted... and Haruo's father gardened, making sure that neither of the two were sneaking off to have their way with each other. Did it really matter in this day and age? But Yasunobu and Fiona were both old-fashioned in that they believed in "hands off before the marriage bed."
So Haruo fished; River painted...and Dad gardened... every single day that week... and Fiona kept her eye on Haruo to make sure that he wasn't doing anything he wasn't supposed to be doing...
...and Dad kept his eye on Haruo as well while he was practicing his piano... while Haruo was diligently reading up his cooking skills book. There was nothing better to do at least anyway...
Wedding preparations were made and decorations were bought. And a festive air fell across the Chikamori property.
The day of the Wedding was a Friday scheduled for after work when everyone could attend. After all, River was pretty popular in high-school and many of her friend chose to attend the wedding held at 15 Summer Hill Court. In fact there were quite a few attendees...and some who actually crashed the wedding, but were able to be present to see the vows take place.
Their honeymoon was in France in Champs Les Sims. And they spent a wonderful three days there sightseeing, fishing and exploring. Visiting the nectary was a highlight of their trip and they camped out at the lake where they had the opportunity to fish and spend some quiet time together.
But all too soon it was time to come back to the "rat-race".
