honeymoon in hawaii

well im back, with another new name: mrs. rose violet cade! that's right, the wedding went perfectly, i am now johnny's wife. where should i start? probly the wedding...so, around evening, i went to the curtis' house, & i think the guys took johnny to my parent's house, cause kitkat made johnnycake stay the night with pony, cause she didn't want him to see me until the wedding! haha! bubblegum did my makeup, & kitkat got me in my dress before doin my hair. the dress was strapless, with sparkling rhinestones on top, & for the skirt, it was just layers overlapping, creating this beautiful fairy-tale wedding dress. kitkat also got me these gorgeous heels that matched the dress, with a white bow on each shoe. after gettin me all ready, hair & makeup & all, darry came over to take us in the pickup truck to the park by the church. when darry saw me, he got this surprised look on his face, then said, "you look great, rosy. kitkat & bubblegum did an awesome job." we rode to the park, & it was starting to get dark, so kitkat took me over to get my veil & tiara on before the procession started. she started attachin the veil to my tiara, & she said, "you nervous, rosy? after all, you're only 16, I kno loads of girls that would have never accepted the proposal, let alone get married to a penniless greaser." i was dumbstruck for a minute, then responded, "i couldn't be nervous even if i tried, kitkat. in fact, I could never be happier with my decision. finally, im goin to marry the love of my life, my soulmate, & im gona be with him forever after tonight. think about it, if you met the person you knew you wanted to spend eternity with, wouldn't you choose to marry him, despite challenges, because you would be with him forever?" she stopped & thought about that for a sec, then said, "yeah, you're right, rosy, i would. you sure are right about a lot of things for a 16-yr-old kid. you know, rosy....you look real pretty right now, no wonder johnny chose you. i realy think you guys were made for each other." she finished on that note as she put my tiara on & pulled the veil over my face. "alrite 'princess juliet', ready to marry your prince romeo?" "yup, never more ready than now!" i said, my eyes sparkling with happiness. kitkat & bubblegum led me to the procession, & as the wedding march played, i walked down the aisle, bouquet of white roses & carnations in hand. johnny was standing there with pony & darry, in a tux with a red flower in his lapel, his hair combed out of his eyes for once. ;) his big black eyes shone when he saw me, & i came to a stop facing johnny. darry began to read the vows. "dearly beloved, we are gathered here today..." then came the actual vows. "jonathon robert cade, do you take rose violet white to be your lawfully wedded wife, in sickness & in health, as long as you both shall live?" "i do," he responded, having never looked happier in his life. "& do you, rose violet white, take jonathon robert cade to be your lawfully wedded husband, in sickness & in health, as long as you both shall live?" "i-i do," i choked, realizing that i was cryin. "i pronounce this couple, husband & wife," darry concluded, & turnin us to face the crowd, said, "mr. & mrs. cade, everyone. you may kiss the bride!" johnny turned me to face him, & pressed his lips to mine, soft & sweet. everyone clapped, & as johnny led me to the fountain, the stars glistening off my dress & tiara, steve got the stereo, & began to play "tell me soon". we began to dance, swayin back & forth. johnny whispered in my ear as we danced, "you look beautiful, rose. ive never seen anyone like you, so stricken with beauty." "finally, we can be together forever. ...i love you, johnny cade. i always have, & i always will. always...." i trailed off as he kissed me again, whispering, "the one thing socs don't have & can't take away: love as strong as ours. funny, how we met, & look @ us now. " i giggled, rememberin that moment. "i think i'll sit on that pile of newspaper to watch the stars, seems like a good place. ...oh my gosh, its a guy! im sooo sorry, i didn't see you!" he smiled, carryin on the memory. "its cool. hey, haven't seen ya around, what's your name?" "rosalina, but i go by rosy." "rosy, that's a nice name, im johnny. you like watchin the stars?" "yeah, they're real pretty." "mind if i watch em with you, rosy?" "not @ all. you know, johnny, you dig okay. i think we're gonna be real close, real close." we reached the end of the memory as the song ended. "i sit on a guy in the lot, & 3 months later, im marryin him! fate is strange sometimes," i said as we walked to a picnic table, thinkin of the odd way i had met my soulmate. "fate might be strange, but fate is what had us meet." "true..." then pony came over & said, "johnny, i know I'm your best man and all, but can i ditch the monkey suit tux now? im a greaser, not some stuck-up soc!" i laughed at pony's request, watchin him try to get his tie off. .....that's basicaly the wedding in a loophole, johnny & i are on our honeymoon in honolulu now. hawaii is super-pretty, sooo much different than tulsa! the hotel's like a zoo, there's PENGUINS in the lobby!!! well, i gotta go, im goin scuba divin with my newlywed husband. bye! p.s. i have good news: we now have 2 incomes in the cade household; besides my waitress/singer job, johnny just got a part-time job workin @ the DX with soda & steve! yay!
