Edna and Irene were both crying and dabbing their eyes and eating the wagashi that they had. Nathaniel had gotten up and walked to the front of the room. "If I can take a moment of your time. As most of you know I have known Gabriel for a long time. He is stubborn and proud. He does everything that he can and has always been a great friend. So I am grateful that you invited me to come here today to your wedding." Nathaniel placed a gift package in front of Amelia and Gabriel before going back to his seat. 

Aki got up and walked up to them. "Thank you for inviting me as well. Gabriel, I worked beside you as we were younger at the hospital. It has always been fun, and you have always been fast at mixing the medicines for the hospital. Congratulates Gabriel and Amelia." He, too, placed a package down. 

Ami jumped up and raced to the front of the room along with her father. "Amelia is the best friend that any girl could ever ask for. She is always giving and never asking for something in return. I am forever grateful to Amelia and I wish you both all the happiness. 

Amelia, the amount of time that you had spent at my house is astronomical, and I know that you helped Ami with everything that you could, I am glad that I am able to replay you today for all the kindness you have offered us." He placed down an envelope that was bulging. Before walking with Ami back to their seats. 

Sachi and Hideo came up to the front. "Amelia, I know that you are happy, and I will forever be your friend. I will always be there for you when you need a friend to take to. Gabriel, thank you for taking care of Amelia." 

Hideo looked at the two. "Gabriel, you have always been a good person, so I am glad that I was able to help you out and finally marry you. Amelia, you have always been the gentleness soul. You are kind and sweet. I am glad that I got to be here and unite to souls that deserve this more than anyone else." He placed a package down that was about the same size as The one Ami's father left.

The goddess floated into the room with Inari and placed a fruit in front of Amelia, "I want you to be a little stronger and this is my wedding gift to both of you. Please eat it now and then Inari and I will go to the next calling that we have." 

Inari jumped up and turned into a half-human he kissed Amelia on the cheek then kissed Gabriel on the cheek. "You both have my blessing! Be happy and healthy."

Amelia picked up the fruit and ate it and then bowed to the goddess and Inari, "thank you." She looked at the shocked crowd but paid them to mind as the goddess and Inari floated away. 

There was guest after guest that came forward dropping the money gifts in front of them until everyone had come and paid their respects. Gabriel smiled and looked at Amelia. "You look beautiful. Let's hand out the gifts we got for the guests and get ready to leave." He got up and helped Amelia to her feet. They walked to the entrance and handed out a bag to each of the guests as they left. Once the last guest was gone Gabriel went to Amelia and kissed her on the cheek. 

"This was beautiful." Edna came to stand in front of the couple. "I heard that Gabriel planned a trip for your two. You can wear what you are wearing and get into the carriage and take off. Have fun and please be safe." 

Irene rushed forward and hugged Amelia. "Look at my little girl all grown up. The first trip with your husband. Go and have fun and I will help Edna take down everything and place it all where it belongs. 

Kuma came out and hands Gabriel a package. "Some lunch for the road. I know that you will get hungry I also added bamboo shoots full of water for you both to drink." 

Thank you, Kuma." Amelia smiled and hugged both her Mothers and both her Fathers. "Be safe and try not to have too much fun while we are gone." 

Gabriel went and placed the food and drink into the carriage and came back to Amelia and picked her up causing her to squeal and laugh. He got her into the carriage and got in after her. As they drove away Gabriel and Amelia waved until their parents were no longer in sight. He closed the window and quickly pulled her into a deep kiss. "I have been wanting to do that all day. You are finally mine, and I will never let you go." 

Amelia kissed him gently back. When he let her go she was breathing heavy. "You are going to devour me before we even get to our destination." Amelia play smacked his shoulder.

"No, I won't go that far, but I have been eager to devour you for a while. Now that I am allowed I need to remember restraint because you are still weak, and I do not want to do anything in the carriage that will make you embarrassed when we need to go to school. For now, you can rest and when lunchtime comes I will wake you up." Gabriel kissed her forehead and down to her lips and kissed her lightly. 

Amelia blushed and kissed him back. She looked around the carriage and blushed deeply. "I am so lucky," she then laid down on his lap and closed her eyes. Falling into a deep sleep from all the activities of the day. 

Gabriel made sure that the hairstyle did not get ruined and looked down at her sleeping face. "Tonight I will satisfy both our needs."
