Chapter 1026 Simple Wedding - Cohabitation and Boundaries
But yeah, a few others didn\'t even think we\'d have a surprise wedding from the get-go—since everyone was still wearing casual clothes—but Allan and Jenny didn\'t want a grand wedding but a very simple one with all of our friends and family in one place.
It\'s just that I had to improv a few lines from memory but aside from my "group" chuckling to themselves from discovering the references I made along the way, all that mattered was telling the groom to kiss the bride and enjoy the happenings as all hell let loose when their lips touched.
And even if the venue wasn\'t as grand, the food and drinks served were appropriate to the occasion and it was probably why we had the meeting before dinner. But yeah, I didn\'t even think that Quinn would fight for the fucking bouquet tossed by Jenny at one point, but none of the guys expected the women, even Quinn who already won, to fight for the garter as well.
"WHAT— THAT\'S CHEATING!"
"WHO SAID I WAS?! YOU\'RE JUST FUCKING SALTY YOU CAN JUMP SO HIGH!"
"YOU— YOU DIDN\'T EVEN JUMP! YOU JUST RAISED YOUR HAND AND CAUGHT IT!"
"IF YOU\'RE THAT PISSED, YOU LITTLE BITCH-BOY, WHY DON\'T WE FIGHT FOR IT— YOU— DON\'T LOOK THAT EXCITED IF I\'M AIMING TO BEAT YOU UP! THAT\'S DISGUSTING?!"
"YOU— HOW\'D YOU KNOW I WAS GOING FOR THAT FROM THE START?!"
"Ew. I\'d rather see you— Nevermind…"
"PLEASE! JUST CRUSH MY HEAD BETWEEN YOUR THIGHS—"
"ALRIGHT, ISAAC~ YOU\'VE HAD ENOUGH, WE\'RE SENDING YOU BACK~"
"B-BUT—"
"D\'YOU WANT TO GET SHOT BY RUBBER BULLETS?! THAT\'S THE CUSTOM HERE, DO YOU KNOW THAT?!"
Honestly, it was just a blast and a wholesome moment for everyone else, especially the newlyweds, and it was also announced that they\'d be moving out of the compound and living in a house just by themselves.
They wouldn\'t be as far from the compound because it was still within walking distance and they would still be the pair guarding our compound during the day, but a few others were still teary especially their next-door neighbors who were Charlotte and Chris.
But yeah, regarding that subject, the next pair that would occupy their room was none other than Olivia, Kaley\'s younger sister, and Lois, Jared\'s younger brother.
It was pretty obvious that there weren\'t any problems from our side but we knew who was the only person that was upset about the whole situation. And yeah, that was the reason I didn\'t even see the two, let alone Matthew, when we arrived because those three people joined Oscar\'s expedition of sorts and Matthew would do anything to delay their cohabitation for as much as possible.
That problem of his even probably made him forgot about our little fight before we sailed to Batangas—including our arrival yesterday—but it was his problem to solve himself, not ours.
Granted that our young couple wasn\'t technically at the legal age to live by themselves and partake in such activities on their own, letting them live their lives while giving proper education and advice for such things was the lesser evil of them sneaking around whenever possible without the knowledge about the responsibilities they\'d have to shoulder the moment they made a mistake.
But yeah, now was just a different time compared to when the world hadn\'t ended but in this place, everyone else was still trying to live how they should for as much as possible.
The horrors outside were another thing but the inside—even though not entirely without problems—should be a safe space for everybody else that was left in this world.
\'Besides, both of them were only a few months before they were technically adults but the things they\'ve experienced this year probably sped up the process because let\'s be honest here, I\'ve met far younger individuals who\'ve had sexual experience and know jack shit about being an actual adult and there were also actual adults who also know squat about what adulting 101 should be, these two with the knowledge and experience they\'ve gained the past year would fare far better than 70% of the people from the old world…\'
Sure, if they were left completely alone without the rest of us to support them, there should be some struggles at the start but I\'m still completely sure that these two could handle once they found their own rhythm.
In any case, I made sure to not drink too much because someone needs to be sober at these types of parties, but once we sent off Allan and Jenny with their very own car as a present, the night slowly died down though there was still plenty of hours before midnight.
Most of the heavy drinkers were still present while small groups were either by our catwalk or some other spot chatting with each other, but with the way things were going, it seemed like Kaley enforced one of her decrees for us to be alone this night. However, that didn\'t mean that the women in our circle couldn\'t steal a round or two while Kaley still hadn\'t brought me to our room but I wasn\'t up for it.
All of them were still very welcome to sleep in the other rooms but this time, the moment the door to our room closes, Kaley and I should be the only ones inside.
A few of them weren\'t particularly happy with this type of arrangement but this was one of the boundaries we set and without following that, our arrangement with everybody else should be dissolved.
I could probably handle it but with the surprise wedding and all, Kaley enforcing her absolute rules had some hidden meaning within it. Furthermore, we already spent time with everybody else last night and I really wanted to sleep on my own bed just lying next to my one and only.
So yeah, even though the night was still young, I pulled Kaley from the people she was chatting with and voiced my sincere intentions, and she just couldn\'t hide the smile she was wearing when I took the initiative to get her.
Let\'s be honest, she was the one that would almost always initiate and come up with surprises and whatnot but this time, among a few times, I simply wanted to be with her.
