Fall Wedding: Wynter and Rajan Ashley Empty Fall Wedding: Wynter and Rajan Ashley

Post by Wynter Ashley Sun Jul 30, 2017 8:20 pm

In exchange for her father's blessing, Wynter and Rajan had to wait a year for their wedding. He wanted them prepared, to make sure they could handle marriage and stay together. In that time, Wynter and Raj worked on her career and so far she was doing fairly well in the fashion industry. The more money the two made, the more money they had to put towards their wedding. She had always been interested in having a small wedding but the Ashley's weren't having any of that. They wanted the couple to have a large wedding full of friends, family, and other associates. Wynter wanted to work on the guest list with her soon to be husband but his parents made sure to hire people to take care of that for them. Wynter felt like she had no say in her own wedding.

While planning, Wynter had stayed up with Maddi to come up with their own guest list. She then went to her soon to be parents-in-law and told them she'd be taking over the planning from now on. The two had put up a fight, but Wynter and Rajan both confirmed that Wynter and him were more than capable of planning their own wedding. So, the Ashley's butt out and the two began to plan the wedding the way they wanted it. They got to hire the wedding planner they wanted, they had the say.

Wynter decided to let Raj's parents have their way with having a big wedding, but everything else was up to the couple. She had her dream dress, a long beautiful white gown with a trail and hints of silver in the details. She let Maddi pick out her own maid of honor dress, as long as it went along with the purple and silver theme.

Wynter was nervous, to say the least. She began to pace back and forth, waiting for the ceremony to begin. She was marrying the man of her dreams in less than two minutes and she couldn't be happier. She couldn't wait to spend the rest of her life with Rajan. She couldn't see spending her life with anyone else.

After the wedding, the reception began. Wynter hadn't left her husband's side as the two danced their first dance. Afterward, she watched her friends and family enjoy themselves.

Madi had never been to a wedding before, so she had gone into wedding planning blindly. She had no idea what she was doing, but somehow, it had all fallen into place.

She happily watched Mr. and Mrs. Ashley dance from Jakob's side. Madi and Jake had been friends and roommates already, but they had only become closer since being coupled up for wedding events. As Maid-of-Honor and Best Man, they walked planned things together, kept their respective friends calm and even walked down the aisle together. They'd been through a lot together over the past year and Madi was somewhat upset for it to end. She wondered what would be next.

She squeezed his hand. "I guess it's just you and me in your house now. I say we turn their room into a library," she said, half-joking, half-seriously. It was going to be odd, just the two of them. Madi had tentatively decided to stay in the dorms next semester, just so it wouldn't be weird, but she'd yet to tell Jakob. Now wasn't the time or the place.

When Rajan had come to Jakob and asked him to be his best man, he didn't know what to say. It took him a moment to respond, but he agreed. He wanted to be there for Rajan through it all. He knew what was going to happen after all this, Rajan and Wynter were going to move out and he and Madi were going to have the house to themselves. If Madi decided to stay and not move out, he wouldn't mind either way. He rather her stay though. But it was all up to her.

They helped plan some things together, which made the two of them grow closer together. He wasn't going to admit it, but he was enjoying their time together. He wasn't one to be emotional, or get attached to someone. He kept his feelings to himself and didn't express them.

"A library?" Jakob questioned with an eye roll. That statement reminded him of his brother, Reese. He would have wanted a library. "Sounds lame but I have no other ideas." Madi could whatever she wanted with the old room, he didn't have any plans with it. He kind of bummed him out that his best friend was moving out. "I guess I gotta be the only bachelor around here," he grinned. Not that he was looking around for a girlfriend. He just liked the hook ups.

Madi's hand covered her mouth as she laughed. "Winning by default is no fun," she told him. She'd think of something he'd like eventually and fill the room with that.

"Not so fast. I am also single. We have a bachelor and bachelorette pad," Madi pointed out. She often joked about bringing people home, but in reality, she probably never would. She didn't see herself ever being one for hook ups. It just didn't suit her. "Our house can just be a revolving door of quidditch fans." She had giggled before she even got the statement out. It felt so ridiculous on her lips.

Isobel was thrilled for her niece. She was so excited that she was marrying the love of her life. Everyone had criticisms of couples and while Isobel might say that the couple was a little young, she wished them the utmost happiness.

Aidan was away doing emergency work for the Ministry today, so the auror was flying solo for the wedding. It felt a little strange and she was a little lonely, but she had her brothers and sister-in-laws to spend time with. While Serah was dancing with her son-in-law, Isobel swept in and stole Ryan. "Hey big brother," she said adjusting his hands to proper dancing positions. "Do you think Ryder and Ben are next?" She nodded toward their nephew, where he was talking animatedly with his boyfriend.

At first, Ryan wasn't too keen on the idea of his daughter getting married, he wanted her to stay his little girl forever. She was still young, almost twenty. Far too young to be getting married in Ryan's opinion. In order to get his blessing though, he made the couple wait a year to make sure they were ready for marriage. When they passed his test, he gave them his blessing. But he was still upset about it. He wanted his little girl to stay little forever, but that clearly wasn't happening. So, he put on a grin and went along with his daughter's wishes. He couldn't help the tears that fell from his eyes when he walked Wynter down the aisle.

Ryan made sure to get a few dances in with his daughter, including a daddy/daughter dance to the song Ryan used to play to calm her as a child. After those dances, Wynter excused herself to greet her other guests and spend more time with her husband. While Wynter was talking to some extended family and Rajan was dancing with Serah, Isobel greeted her brother. "Maybe," he looked over towards his nephew. "Possibly." He didn't know much about their relationship, but from what he could see, they were very into each other. "Maybe they'll wait," he said bitterly. He wished his daughter the best, but he really wished she would have waited.

Ryder was very grateful for Madi Puchard. He'd never thought he'd say that about the former Head Girl of Eclairage (and resident pain in his ass) but she'd definitely saved him the headache of helping his cousin plan her wedding. Any time Wynter had asked for his opinion, he'd just shrug and tell her to ask Madi, which allowed him to daydream about his boyfriend.

He hadn't seen Ben for a whole six months and he'd missed his boyfriend more than he'd ever thought possible. Ryder hadn't thought it would really be so bad, but going from seeing each other every day to nothing at all was difficult. He'd definitely underestimated how much he'd miss Ben's laugh and his sweet smile. He missed freckles and springy curls and stolen kisses in the corridors of the castle. He missed watching Ben dance, whether to music or some tune in his head. He missed Ben's hand in his. Ryder was pretty sure his chest ached the entire time they were apart.

Picking him up from the airport was like exhaling after holding your breath a little too long. Ryder was so relieved to see him. If he could have run into his arms, he probably would have. But Mabel and Stark were there and he didn't want them to watch him. It was a hug and a quick peck on the lips before they were off.

They'd spent almost the whole night before the wedding catching up. Mabel was making them stay in separate rooms, but Stark was more lenient with them. Ryder was grateful for his stepfather's blatant disregard for what he and Ben did behind closed doors. And he was grateful for knocks indicating that his mother was home. He had brought up that they weren't sleeping together, but Mabel got him back with the I know how boys are at your age argument and Ryder knew better than to push it.

He knew what his mother meant. Especially when he saw Ben in a suit again. There was definitely a little lust there, but mostly adoration. Ryder had felt like he was floating all through the day. He was somewhere else with his hand in Ben's and he had trouble paying attention to anything other than Ben.

The ceremony had flowed flawlessly into the reception, which must have been a result of Wynter and Raj's perfect planning. It was nice to see all of his family again and it was especially nice to introduce Ben to everyone who was important, specifically Aunt Isobel. And it was nice to just be out in public with his boyfriend.

But after awhile, they were mostly left to their own devices. He sliced a massive piece out of the cake for himself, then a still-too-big piece for Ben and offered it to him.  "Do you think cake survive a trip back to LA? For Mariana," Ryder asked.

Spending time away from Ryder was difficult, to say the least. The only thing that kept him from going insane was his sister, Mariana. He missed Ryder so much. He missed his lame jokes and his laugh after laughing at his own jokes. He missed his smile and being the reason behind it. He wanted his boyfriend to hold him close and tell him everything was going to be okay. He wasn't having the best time. He was trying so hard but it didn't seem to be paying off. Everyone loved Mariana more than him and clearly only kept him around because his sister made them. Was it because he was so young? Or was he just not as talented as he thought he was? Did they not take him seriously?

Every time he tried to talk to Mariana about it, she brushed it off and told him that everyone loved him. Most nights she was away with her friends which meant he had their apartment to himself. He was not only missing his boyfriend, he was missing his sister. He didn't mention it to anyone, he didn't wanna inconvenience anyone. No one needed to know how lonely he was.

Ben wasn't expecting how relieved he felt when he saw Ryder after so long. He wanted to wrap him up in a hug and never let go. He wanted to stay with Ryder forever. "I missed you," he whispered when he was in Ryder's arms again.

Suits were uncomfortable in Ben's opinion but he was used to it. It was Ben's idea for his and Ryder's ties to match, he wanted to be that couple. Ben was beginning to grow some facial hair but didn't care for shaving it. His sister, when she was around, gushed about how grown up he looked.

The wedding was beautiful, it felt like something out of a fairytale. Ben knew Wynter well enough to know that she wanted a happily ever after and the perfect fairytale wedding. He also knew about the Ashleys' wealth and knew they could provide the request.

"I don't know if I wanna go back," Ben said absentmindedly as his eyes darted around the room, taking in the decorations and the people. His eyes widened at his own words before finally looking at Ryder. "I mean, everything is great." He accepted the slice with an uneasy grin. He didn't want Ryder knowing he was having a crumby time in LA.

Ryder wasn't an idiot. He knew Ben wasn't happy with being a troupe dancer. He gathered based on the way his boyfriend spoke of LA. Ryder wasn't quite sure what to suggest he do instead. Dancing was Mabel's department, not Ryder's.

He frowned at his boyfriend. "You know I'll support you no matter what, right?"

He absentmindedly rubbed his chin. He knew he wasn't going to sprout hair there since his father didn't, but he was admittedly jealous of Ben's. "But you're still here for a whole seven days. You and me," he reminded.

Ben gave Ryder a half-hearted smile. He knew Ryder would understand but he didn't want him to know that he wasn't having the time of his life like he thought he would. "I know," he squeezed his boyfriend's hand. "I'm just trying to figure everything out." He rather stay in France if he was being completely honest. But he wasn't sure how Mariana would react. Would she even care at this point? Of course, she would. She'd through a fit but continue to be out every night with her friends. "Everything is fine." It wasn't.

His smile was genuine when Ryder mentioned that the next seven days they would be together. He didn't want to leave his boyfriend's side ever. "Let's hope you don't get tired of me," Ben joked.

Ryder nodded. "You got this. Everything will work out. It's only been six months."

He may not know what to say, but Ryder knew he wasn't going to let Ben throw away his dancing career. Especially if it was just for him. "I know it's difficult, but nothing that's worth it is. Even Mabel was a troupe dancer," Ryder reminded him.

Ryder's lips spread into a grin. "Never. You're stuck with me," he joked before shoving a bite of cake in his mouth.

Isobel stuck her lip out. She wanted him to tell her that she was next, but she knew better than to go to Ryan with her anxieties. She took both of her brother's hands and put them in the right spots for dancing, since he was clearly distracted.

She sighed as they danced, quite unanimated. "There's a timeline for women, you know. Seventeen, graduate from high school. Go to college, find a man by twenty-one. Get him to marry you by twenty-six, and so on. It's a lot of pressure, Ryan," she pointed out. "Wynter is affected by that, too. Imagine she was, oh, I don't know, pushing thirty and still with Raj with no hope of him proposing. Wouldn't that be bad?"

She looked away from her brother's face as her own turned red. She was twenty-eight, almost twenty-nine, and she was a lieutenant in the Ministry. Why wasn't she a wife, too? It wasn't fair.
