I'm a Walking Disaster With My Unwanted Virginity

The party lasted for a good two hours. 

We met people, we ate stuff, we even sang together- Marg and I. I was tone-deaf. 

So that was something. 

Then again, I was weirdly excited. 

I had no idea I could be such a clown.

The music, the sweet smell… it was nice.

Most of our friends and family would arrive tomorrow at our home party, so this didn't really feel like a party. It was a party regardless but I just didn't get the feeling. 

Still, it was fun to see people actually caring about us- which was probably fake. 

Okay, it was definitely fake. 

But still, it was fun. 

Marg didn't have any maternal relatives other than just one uncle who couldn't make it here. he'd be at our party later on- or so she said. 

"I think it's time we head back," Marg said.

Speaking of heading back, how were we going to get back? 

"We'll take the jet." Mom came over. 

"I'll come later," Marg's mother also came over. They were awfully close.

"Yeah, you can take dad with you. I'll carry Marg instead." I was not getting on that plane, no thank you. 

Just the two of us, flying through the sky. 

Dad grimaced as he stared at the plane- which magically appeared just before we got here. Okay, okay, it flew here. 

The pilot guy never took off his helmet, he ate while still keeping the damn thing on. 

"I have bad memories with crafts like that," Dad admitted. 

"Yeah, me too. But I've gotta escort Marg back, so Good luck." I gave him a thumbs up. 

He grimaced some more. 

"Don't worry, it's fun!" Elsa started pulling on his arms. 

His cheeks twitched as he tried to smile. And failed miserably. 

"Take care of her." Marg's mother touched my cheeks and then Marg's. 

"I will."

Melheim didn't bother coming to us. He was too busy with the guests. This was a grand opportunity for him to advertise his relationship with both the Romswells and the Battlesuins, so I guess that mattered more. 

Anyway, we were basically done, so mom and the others headed for the plane. 

And that's when I realized, "Dad you have something on your sleeve."

"OH yeah!" He said, looking back. "This is Janel! And He's Monro!" He pointed towards the other side. There was a horse there. Or rather a guy with the head of a horse who was happily chomping on a pine tree. 

I was speechless for a second.

How the hell did I miss that?

I tried to sound normal. "So, they really did get you here." 

The horse guy grinned, showing his flawless teeth. I couldn't make out what the beetle guy was trying to do though. 

"We should just go." I whispered to Marg. 

"Yeah." She came close and grabbed my arm. "You want to teleport?"

"Nope. I'm going to carry you into the sunset!"

She giggled. 

"Yor Leawing?" A kid came our way, still munching on a nugget. 

"OH hey. Yeah."

It was Marg's half-brother- the one who was with us for a few days. Other kids were also headed this way, even the one who'd scraped his knees. 

Some servants surrounded us. They actually had a genuine smile for once. 

"I'll com visit you." He had his mouthful. 

"Don't talk with your mouth full, kid. And yeah, sure." I grabbed Marg tight. Carried her like a princess. She wrapped her hands around my neck and I could almost feel her racing heart. "BYE, EVERYONE!"

We caught people's attention and they all just waved. 

'Just wave and smile.' Since I couldn't wave- Marg was doing it for me. 

And fly!

***

Marg was holding me tight. She had a smile and her heart was racing. 

Mine was kind of too. We just got married!

It seemed so surreal. But it was real.

In my arms was my GF no more. She was now my wife. 

She actually smelled really good. 

I couldn't say the same for me though.

The sun was kind of in the middle of the sky- rather than near the edges. So, it was impossible to fly through the setting sun. We could have always just flown somewhere where the sun was setting- but that was impossible. 

After all, I was flying way too slowly. 

Reason being- wind. 

How the hell did I forget that I didn't bring my saber? 

"Maybe, we 'should' teleport," I said, after a while. "Though, I'm still not sure if we should." After all, who knew when something could go wrong?

"It'll be fine," Marg said. "You're with me…" She brought her lips closer to mine.

"I'm with you…"

We kissed. 

And so, everything went purple and we teleported. 

***

We'd reached home before mom and the rest arrived. 

The outside of the house was moderately decorated- nothing fancy. 

But more importantly, a lot of our relatives were here. Mostly the uncles and the cousins. 

I had no idea they were coming today. 

All this time, I'd taken for granted that they were coming tomorrow. 

"The party was tomorrow, right?" I whispered to my left. 

"Nope." 

Shit. 

Party crackers, balloons, and all sorts of stuff went popping as we entered.

"CONGRATULATIONS!"

***

Mom and dad arrived about ten minutes later. 

Dad looked awfully pale and ready to throw up.  It was a miracle he didn't. 

Meanwhile, the rest of them were fine. 

Oddly the horsehead guy and the beetle were here too. And here I thought they weren't coming. I never saw the horsehead guy getting on the plane though. So-

'Was there even enough space in the plane?'

Oh well. 

Anyway, another party went underway.

And one by one, the number of people just kept on increasing. 

Friends, family, teachers, distant relatives, yeah, this was going to be a packed party. Even the pilot entered the house. 

But unlike the last time, I actually felt at home- well, this was my home. 

And this odd sense of calm enveloped me. 

Life was good.
