It was thirty minutes before the ceremony would start and this was definetively not what Jim had expected. Of course he knew that uncle Frank wasn't the sanest person anymore, not to mention he still had his doubts about the rest of the family, but this was just painful.
"Ah Jamie, my boy!" The grey haired man said as he threw an arm around the captains shoulders. Frank was wearing a strange combination of bright pink and yellow, a suit that was only appropriate if he tried to blind someone. He also wore a very old fashioned brown hat decorated with a long green feather. It was a nightmare. Jim really wanted to lock him in the closet and never let him out again. Could this day actually get any worse?
"I'm so happy that you want me to perform the ceremony."
Of course it could.
"Uhm....uncle Frank...Admiral Pike is going to marry us. Didn't mom tell you?!"
The older man's smiled faltered and his eyes started to glister. This was not good. "Oh....sorry, Jamie...I must have forgotten, probably inhaled to much pixy dust on my last hunt."
"Pixy dust?" The blond asked confused. "I didn't know they let you go on hunts at the clinic?"
Uncle Frank sighed and sunk into a chair next to the kitchen table. "They don't but every now and then nurse Shannon allows us to roam the garden for pixies. It is always quiet nice....Well, whatever Jamie, my boy. Where shall I stand? And what do you want me to read from for the ceremony? I'm so happy, that you let me marry you!" The oler man smiled like it was the best day in his life and however much Jim had wanted not to get even more embarassed, he just couldn't say no.
So he just smiled and said: "I'm glad too, uncle Frank. Look why don't you wait here. I'll send someone to get you when it's time."
"Of yourse my boy. You know I would do anything for you!" His uncle hugged him and Jim returned the embrace. Now he just had to explain to Pike....and Spock.
Holy Mother of New Vulcan....
"....ah, don't worry about it, Jim." The admiral said with a smile. "If it means this much to your uncle I won't make a fuss. Is he actually allowed to marry you?"
Jim nodded with a tint of red on his cheeks. "He's a certified minister. He's completely lost his marbles, but he's still allowed to marry people...."
Pike snickered and patted the blond on the back. "I can't wait. I'm so glad to be seated in the first row."
"That is completely illogical, Jim." Spock said with a stern look. "Your mother told me that he lives in an asylum and currently believes he's the lord of the shadow goblins. A species that, as I recall, does not exist. Administering the vows, will be completely out of his grasp."
Jim knew this would be difficult, but he just could not let uncle Frank down.
"Spock, please. It means so much to him and he actually is a certified minister. He was there for me, whenever he could and he loves me. Please Spock. I know it isn't customary, not even on earth, but he is so happy about it..."
A look of pure desperation was on Jim's face and Spock knew he would give in. He always did when it was something that important to his soul mate.
Spock sighed and kissed Jim's cheek. "If it is that important to you I will concede. They are, after all, more your customs than mine."
The blond huggged his bond mate tightly and kissed him softly on the lips. "Thanks Spock, it means a lot. And whenever you get embarassed by something he says, just know I'm right there with you, getting embarassed also."
"I suppose that is your human way of comforting me?!"
Everyone was seated and, as the melody strated to play, the hushed whispers stopped and the guests turned in their seats.
Spock and Jim walked down the aisle, side by side and smiling nervously and the music stopped a soon as the were at the podium.
As they stood before the altar, Sam guided uncle Frank before them and Spock nearly had a heart attack. He could hear gasps and snickers around the tent and Jim turned to glare at his crew, who wisely shut up.
Frank just grinned, as if nothing was wrong and clapped his hands together.
"Welcome people, it is an honor for me to be here today. I'm so happy that our little Jamie darling is getting married." Jim's face bloomed red and their guests giggled.
"Yes, yes, Jamie was always quiet the charmer, but let me tell you the boy is smart. I remember when he flooded the high school with green jelly without even beeing there and the school had to be closed for a whole week."
"Awesome, Captain!" Came a shout from his crew's ranks and there were more giggles as Jim blushed even more.
He shyly peeked over to Spock who, even though he seemed to try hard, couldn't supress a small smile.
"And Sparky here," Frank said an gestured at Spock, who flinched at the name, as more crew members, family AND Pike started to laugh even more. Jim also had to snort and put a hand over his mouth to stop the laughter.
"He must be one hell of a fellow if he can keep up with little Jamie, he's such a trouble magnet, but a sweet one. With all the chaos that he gets tangled up with, he'll practicall need a knight in shining armor. To bad you're wearing black, Speak."
The laughter died down slowly and Frank gestured to the pair.
Jim smiled and nodded and then turned to Spock to hold out his hands. The Vulcan took them and the blond started to speak.
"Spock, you have been by my side for barely a year, but I know that no one is so right for me as you are. You're my warmth when I'm cold. You're my calm, when I'm wild. You're everything I'll ever need. And even when we don't agree you support me. I feel safe near you and stronger than I thought I could be, because I know you're right there beside me. Whatever happens know that you will always have every part of me. My mind, my body, my soul and my heart. I will never belong to someone else, but you."
He had tried to get his soul into the words, but as he held Spock's hands he also sent his love over to him through their bond. Jim could feel the emotion be returned from his soul mate.
"Jim, I have never met a person like you. You are impulsive, unpredictable and definitively brave..."
A tiny smiled played at the corner of the Vulcan's lips. It had taken him quiet a while to get the speech right. It needed to be romantic and yet it was difficult to let go of the vulcan principles of decorum, that were ingrained in him.
"Your spirit, devotion and your love have facinated me from the start and I am glad to have the honor to call you mine as I am yours. You surprise me everyday with something unexpeted and I will happily devote the rest of my life to finding out all there is to know about you. You helped me, when I needed a friend, your love has gotten me through the darkest of times and I will always return your feelings, of that I am sure. I will stand by you forever, protect you and be yours for as long as we live. You have my heart, my body, mind and soul."
They just smiled and looked into each others eyes and Jim could feel the energy bustle between them were their hands touched. He could hear faint sniffing noises in the background, but he was to caught in Spock's sight to really register it.
Suddenly there was a clapping of hands and both turned to Frank again, who was smiling like crazy.
"Wonderful, wondeful. Am I ever glad to hand our little Jamie over to you, Spot. You're a real fine lad, perfect. So....uhm....oh yes....The rings please." Frank cleared his throath importantly as the crew giggled again.
Grinning Bones and Uhura stepped forwart to hand the pair the golden rings.
Jim took his from Bones and slowly put it on Spock's finger. Then Spock carefully put his ring on Jim's hand. Both smiled at each other and then turned back to Frank.
"Oh....oh yes....So do you Jamie baby, take this man...or is he an elf? He's got really cool ears, hasn't he...." Jim was so happy he just didn't care. Also the people he loved were all here and they had fun. That was what mattered.
"Well, whatever....Jamie do you take this man to be your knight in shining amor?"
Jim tried really hard not to laugh, but he couldn't help a little snort.
"I do!"
"Do swear to make him breakfast and not to paint him pink in his sleep?"
Jim snickered again and nodded. "I swear."
"And you...uhm...Spock? Do you take Jamie to be your lawfull wedded trouble magnet?"
Spock's eyebrow twitched. "I do!"
"Do you promise to tell him how pretty he is and not to leave him alone with strange men, giving out free candy?"
The Vulcan's other eyebrow twitched as more snickers were heared from the guests.
"I do!"
"That's a good boy!" Frank cooed as patted Spock on the head.
"Well then. I know pronounce you knight and trouble magnet. You may make out in front of your friends!"
Jim giggled again and shook his head, before he leaned up to kiss his husband.
Spock pulled the other man into his arms and softly returned the kiss, as around them their friends cheered.
'I love you, Spock.' The blond sent his commander.
'I love you to, Jim....but I will kill your family if they ever make us go through something like this again.'
Jim snorted and just nodded his agreement. 'As will I, Spock, as will I...'
*************Reception Time******************
His mother had really gone overboard with the decorations. Everything in the hall was white, gold and blue. The tables were covered with the softest cloth he had ever felt, the chandeliers were blinking like crazy and everywhere he looked the were his blue flowers. Their table was on a podium a little higher than the other table and it was only for family and his most dearest friends.
Jim and Spock, of course, sat in the middle. Bones sat on his right side, while Sarek was seated on Spocks left. Winona was next to Bones and then came Frank, Sam and his family. Admiral Pike, Uhura, Scotty, Chekov and Sulu sat besides Sarek.
Jim just hoped Bones would not torture him to bad, he was already sweating it because of Uhura. After all Spock was her ex-boyfriend.
As soon as everyone was seated, Bones stood up and called for attention.
"Hello guys," The doctor began grinning and Jim already wanted to hide.
"For those of you who don't know me, I'm Leanard McCoy and have the dubious honor of being Jim's best friend. As we first met, the first thing I told him was that I might throw up on him. Needles to say he instantly was attracted to my grouchy charms." There were snickers among the audiance and Bones continued.
"He always had a thing for strange people, which is why it didn't really surprise me, that he married Spock."
At that Spock glared at him, but wisely refraind from pinching the doctor.
"However, Jim is also one of the smartest people I know and therefore it was kind of logical that he and Spock would hit it of, eventually. I know that many people have observed the differences between them, but some, like me also know that they are not that different at all. They are smart, kind, loyal and brave. Who knows them, is aware that there are no better guys around anywhere. As a team they have managed to overcome the most complicated and dangerous problems and have, quiet often, saved their crews collective asses. I also know that they love each other more than we will ever know and that together they can do anything. So, pick up your 2000 credit champagne glasses and toast. To Jim and Spock. May they always be there to save our hides!"
"To Jim and Spock!"
*********
"Jim, it will be quiet difficult to dance, if we cannot establish who should lead." Spock pointed out as they tumbled over the dancefloor.
"Well, why should you lead. We're nearly the same height!"
"To the contrary. I'm a few inches taller, which is no surprise, since I'm still growing."
At that the blond stopped cold. "What? Why? You didn't tell me that."
"I'm vulcan and Vulcans continue to grow until they are fully developed which ends at 30."
"Are just telling me I married an underage Vulcan. I'm not going to end up in jail, am I?!"
"I'm not an adolescent. Now stop your fussing." With that he took his husbands hips and started to lead the slow dance. The blond just gave in, as he still had to swallow the fact, that Spock would soon be even taller than him. Well, it was never boring around Spock that was for sure. Jim was tempted to ask if other parts of his husband would also continue to grow.
"Yes, that is a distinct possibility." Spock said and looked into his Captain's eyes with a hint of amusement. Jim blushed, he had completely forgotten, that they could read each others minds, if they didn't shield.
"Well, that's good to know....."
