Eighteen

I shoved the table into place then stood, pulling my flannel off as I got hot.

"Sorrentina!" I turned then smiled as the Kingsglaives came in with the flowers, cake, and their suits.

"You gotta get ready!" Pelna laughed, but I shook my head and got the flowers into their vases.

"I gotta finish-"

"Sorrentina!" Nyx caught my waist and forced me to stop, turning me to face him.

"I love you, but for the love of the gods, go and get into your dress! Please, or you will be upset because you didn't have enough time to get ready." He said then I sighed and knew he was right.

"Fine." I said and he smiled.

"I have the plans memorized, I will finish this then we will be done. Okay?" I nodded then he kissed my head and I went to the suite that Noctis was letting the girls change in. I saw Crowe, Lady Lunafreya, and Miss Cindy there getting into their bridesmaid gowns, but I went to the bathroom and got into the shower.

I finished adjusting my tie then turned to Libertus to see he was struggling.

"Come here, you idiot." He came over then I helped him.

"Uh, Nyx?" I looked at Xander as I finished with Libertus and saw him also not able to do it.

"Let me show you." I said and showed him how to tie it. As I finished, I fixed his suit then turned as someone knocked on the door.

"Come in!" I called then Crowe came in and I smiled, happy to call her my best friend.

"Nyx, it's Sorren. She's freaking out, something about that 'piss pot'." She said then I left and glared as I saw the original wedding planner standing in front of Sorren, but she was screaming in his face as he argued with her, the crownsguard and Noctis with her.

"YOU ARE AN IDIOT! I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW YOU ARE STILL ALIVE, YOU SON OF A BITCH!"

"SORREN!" I bellowed and she looked at me then I saw the reason behind her anger. The guy had spilled wine on her dress and threw what looked like mustard onto it as well.

"Nyx-"

"I was told that you weren't even allowed into the Citadel today!" I spit at the guy then he scoffed.

"She ruined my greatest work of art-"

"And you ruined her mother's dress!" I snarled then his eyes went wide as he looked at the dress.

"Good, it was a piece of trash-" I caught Sorren's waist when she went to jump forward to attack him, but guards grabbed the guy as I held my girlfriend.

"Sorrentina!" I yelled and she stopped, but I noticed tears falling down her cheeks.

"This was my mother's fucking dress, you sick son of a whore!" She yelled then I grabbed her cheeks and forced her to look at me.

"We'll get it cleaned, okay?! You gotta calm down, screaming won't help anyone here!" I said then looked over as Lady Lunafreya came over.

"Maybe I can assist, I know of a way to quickly get stains out of dresses." She said then I nodded and sent Sorren with the platinum blond, turning to the guy as he spit on the floor.

"She's a slut!" I punched him then he hit the ground, his nose broken, but the guys did nothing to stop me.

"Call my girlfriend a slut, insult her dress, and keep trying to be a homophobic piece of shit to my friends, I will personally kick your ass in so many ways, you won't know which way is up! Get out of this building, out of this city, and you stay gone, or I will make you regret ever coming near Sorrentina!" I growled then he stood and guards escorted him out.

"Hey, she's gonna be okay." Crowe said and I nodded.

"That was her mother's wedding dress, Crowe, it's all she's got left of her." I said then Crowe nodded.

"I'll go help them." She said and turned to go help clean the dress.

"Well, this will be one to remember." Noctis said and we all laughed, going to finish getting ready.

I watched as Prompto and Noctis exchanged their vows then smiled as I felt Nyx grab my hand, squeezing tightly as I eyed my work. Prompto stood in a white tux with a rainbow tie, a gun symbol on the middle of it while Noctis was in a black tux that also had a rainbow tie, but it had a crown symbol on it instead. The flowers were wild flowers, all in a rainbow design, but the rest of the wedding designs were the classic white and a bit of gold to add some color.

"See? It all worked out." Nyx whispered then I looked down at my mother's dress and was so, so thankful to Luna. When I had handed her the dress, dressed in only a strapless bra and some panties, she had handled it with such care and I could only watch as the stains just vanished from the fabric. Then Crowe used her fire magic to make enough heat to dry the dress for me, which made me so happy.

"I know." I whispered and laid my head on his shoulder, everyone cheering as the prince kissed his new husband and I saw the king was silently crying with a smile on his face, so I knew he was happy. After the wedding, we had the reception and food, cake, and they opened the presents. As Prompto got to the one Noctis had me make for him, I saw tears in his eyes. It was a portrait that I had made purely from a few things that the prince had asked for. It was the two of them standing on a balcony, based on the one in the prince's suite here at the Citadel, but it was a star filled night with a full moon in the dark sky behind them. The portrait was drawn as if someone had taken their photo from inside the suite, but they were standing together, facing each other, and Noctis' arms were around Prompto as their heads laid together. When Prompto looked at me, I knew he realized I had made it for them, but I had never been so happy to see someone crying over my work.
