Welcome to Gaia! ::

(The more of this I write, the more I realize. "Oh wait, we had planned this differently" ... whoops.)

C.T.'s glee was released in a joyful laugh that was absorbed into Esther's mouth as her now wife pulled her into powerful kiss that C.T. returned with equal amounts of gusto. The hall erupted with cheers and despite it being less than 20 of them in there, the noise they were making seemed to deafen her. She felt her ears ringing drowning out all the noise which was all well with C.T. she didn't need to hear them, she didn't need to hear anything, Esther was occupying the only senses that mattered to her right now.

Sight, touch, smell and taste.

If not for her situational awareness, C.T. would have ate Esther up right here.

But the sound of foot stomping and the clearing of throats, brought her attention elsewhere, reluctantly she pulled away from Esther, releasing a heavy breath C.T. looked from her wife to the crowd who were gesturing towards the door. Connie sighed, she forgot that even though they were married, they still had a wedding to complete. She looked back towards Esther Tereshchenko, and took her wives hand and to the sound of the organ playing together, she walked Esther through the foyer, and out to a rented limo that was waiting for them outside to drive them down the street to the rec. where the reception would be held.

Once they were safely tucked inside the limo, C.T. was instantly on her wife, kissing her again, still with the same enthusiasm, her hands finding themselves busy, feeling Esther's curves through the dress she wore. "I have a surprise for you," C.T. said, sliding her own jacket off. She went for the bowtie, moving to remove that and unbutton the buttons on her shirt.

"Let him look," C.T. said flashing her teeth in a wide grin, though there was color in her cheeks that suggested that she was maybe a tad bit embarrassed by the prospect of the driver watching them, but that slight embarrassment didn't slow her motions at all. She continued to unbutton her shirt until it hung loosely from her body, and then she moved to her pants, unbuckling the belt with a rustling of fabric and metal, soon the buttons of the pants followed and the sound of her own zipper, as she slid them off.

It was a bit awkward trying to shimmy out of her pants while still staying pressed against Esther, but she managed to kick them off without too much trouble. Finally she sat up a bit, in order to remove her shirt.

One would think that with her pants and her shirt removed that she would be sitting before Esther in nothing but her underwear, but that would be wrong. C.T. was adorned in a rather beautiful red dress, the same dress she had borrowed from Esther during the dance in the warehouse. "Like the surprise?" C.T. asked, leaning back in to kiss her wife.

"Oh? Not impressed?" C.T. asked Esther, with a tilt to her head and a bite of her lips. She didn't believe a word of what Esther said, but the girl fighting against how she truly felt was somewhat appealing to Connie, cute in all the right ways. "I'm really glad that I married you." C.T. said to Esther as the door to their limousine was opened by the driver, C.T. looked at the opening before turning to Esther and winking, before moving to make her exit. She did so in a way that was purposely careless, so that she could accidentally show her wife that she had chosen to go without the tights this time.

Something about this day was making her very adventurous.

C.T. exited first, and extended her hand to Esther to help the girl out, she could already hear the music emitting from the center, all the guest having arrived before them as planned, because the driver had been instructed to take a bit of a detour.

"I hear Mag went the extra step and rented us a suite in a hotel, so the question is, how long do we grace them with our presence?"

"Your surprise?" C.T. asked managing to stumble out of her own heels while Esther lead her to the dance floor, she didn't want to be at a disadvantage after all. She had a few thoughts flowing around in her mind as to what Esther's surprise could be. But she wouldn't make any wild guess' at it, she'd let these things unravel as they may.

For now she would dance with her wife, to the rather up beat pop song that she couldn't recognize, but she didn't need an ear for the song as long as she could feel the rhythm, and that came rather naturally for her. She was glad that Esther was light on her feet when it came to dancing as well. "I love how this dress fits you, and your hair today is beautiful, I meant to tell you earlier but we were a bit occupied." C.T. whispered, leaning into Esther's ear so that she could talk. "I think this dress would look a little better though," C.T. teased moving her hands towards the bottom of Esther dress. "If it were higher on your hips." C.T. finished with a smirk, but before she could move to do something that would be deemed rather inappropriate, Mag's voice rang throughout the hall.

"Alright ladies and gentlemen, better snag your dances with the two Brides, before they run off to get an early start on their honeymoon."

Connie found herself rolling her eyes. "Christ, someone gave her a microphone." She mumbled to herself, before feeling a tap on her shoulder, she turned to see Kat standing there a bit of a glint in her eye. "Let's see if you dance as good as you fight." C.T. snorted at that, turning towards Esther to make sure the girl was ok, only to see that Kia was already dragging her wife away. "Alright sis," C.T. said, shrugging. "Let's dance."

"Oh no, not in front of everybody." C.T. mocked shaking her head with a bit of a chuckle. "As tempting as your offer may be, it seems that there are more people who want to dance with me." C.T. said smirking as she nodded her head towards Mag who was standing behind her sister. Sighing Kia released Connie and allowed Mag to take her place. "Enjoying yourself?" Mag asked, causing them both to wince a bit as they realized that her earpiece was still connected to the speakers. "Why did they give you a mic?" C.T. asked with a roll of her eyes as she began to dance with Mag. "They, didn't give me anything. I am the coordinator here, I gave myself the mic, and I need it to demand attention. And I do believe I asked you a question." Mag tutted, Connie found herself rolling her eyes again. "Keep doing that and they'll fall out." Mag warned.

"You did an alright job."

Near Esther, Elric was lining up for his chance to dance now with his sister in law.

"She gets it from the women in our family, they all seem to have a knack for getting their way, but something tells me your not as much of a push over as myself or my father." Elric said, not doing a very good job of keeping his voice down because even over the music, their father's voice rang.

"I heard that!"

C.T. couldn't help but giggle as her father stopped their movements to give Elric a look, Elric was unabashed however and only shrugged his shoulders.

"You know he does have a point dear." C.T. heard her mother's voice behind, Connie released her father with a slight bow and turned around smiling wide as she faced Katja. "Mother!" C.T. said happily. Opening her arms to her mother and the two women shared a hug. The music in the background ended, but that was fine, Katja hadn't really planned on dancing anyway, she had just wanted to congratulate her daughter/ "I'm so happy for you Connie, so glad that you found us, and that even without us in your life that you found someone to love and care for you in the times that we couldn't." Katja was getting teary eyed and it was making C.T.'s eyes start to water as well. "Don't let me get you all worked up, enjoy your day dear." Katja said before going to her husband, new music was starting up, the two of them would dance now.

C.T. watched her parents with a smile before moving back over to her wife who was now unoccupied. "Hey." She said simply, with a grin.

C.T. let Esther's question mull over in her head as she looked around a bit, looking at all the faces in the party, before turning back to her wife, her grin widening. "I think I'll admit defeat on this one." C.T. said suddenly. More so because she felt that Esther had a plan for the surprise that she had mentioned earlier and C.T. found herself wanting to be the beneficiary of such careful planning. "Shall I have the driver take us back to the hotel room?" C.T. asked and then to make sure she didn't sound to eager she added. "We only have him for today afterall."
