A/N: I don't feel like typing out individual thanks for reviewing at the moment, but thank you all for reviewing. Here's an update (finally). Sorry it's such a bad chapter.

Chapter 11: EMAILS
Monday, September 14

To: BIG NEWS!!!!
Dear Tohru,
How are you? I hope you are doing well and are not over-exerting yourself at your job. You have to be careful not to worry too much, it's unhealthy.
Anyways, that aside, I suppose I'd better get to the main point of this email here. My reason for emailing you is this: I proposed to Machi on Thursday. AND, she accepted.
Now Tohru, I want you to breathe in and out. I want you to put yourself in a happy place and calm yourself down since you are undoubtedly spazzing out at the moment.
Are you okay now? I sure hope so.
Anyways, the wedding and wedding reception is scheduled to take place on the 24th of December. Hopefully, this does not interfere with any Christmas plans you may have, but if it does, I completely understand. Also, the wedding reception is somewhat doubling as a Christmas party, so that's something you might want to take note of.
The wedding is going to be smaller and simpler, but the wedding reception/Christmas party should be a considerable size.
Please email me back and let me know if you are able to come.
Yours truly,
Yuki
P.S. If you would like to invite your friends Uotani-san and Hanajima-san to the reception for me, I would much appreciate it as I don't seem to have their number. Plz&thnx.

To my all of my family and friends and other strange, random people I happen to know:
As some of you are already aware, Machi and I are engaged. You may consider this an invitation to the wedding reception. The actual wedding ceremony will not be very big so only the bridal party will attend and everyone else will all just meet up at the reception/Christmas party afterwards.
When: December 24
What: wedding reception/Christmas Party
Who: Me and Machi
Where: the restaurant/dance place/club thing called "Tokyo Pop" located downtown
Hope to see some of you there!
-Yuki
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A/N: The bridal party consists of:
Manabe: 'Guardian' of Machi (give Machi "away")
Ayame: 'Guardian' of Yuki (give Yuki "away") (A/N: I am aware that this is not a normal custom, but the Sohmas aren't normal and I just thought that Ayame would probably put it upon himself to do something like that)
Maid of Honor: Kimi
Best Man: Haru
Bridesmaid: Tohru escorted by Usher: Nao
Flower girl: Kisa ring bearer: Hiro
A/N: Yeah, I know, it's not a great chapter, but deal with it. I have a sore throat right now anyways and I feel pretty shitty since all my friends are doing something today and I'm not, so I don't really care how bad of a chapter it is. (Sigh) But what can you do? Maybe, if I'm lucky, my mom will take me to Borders tonight so I can get a new manga book and feel better about my lack of a social life. Anyways please review and make me feel better about my non-existent social life. Reviews make me happy. : )
