As Bobby woke the next morning, he wasted little time in taking a shower and getting dressed. When he did, he came out to the living room to see Stu and his dad sitting on the couch talking to each other, but they both stopped when they saw Bobby enter the room. “Good morning, Bobby,” Stu said with a smile. “Good morning, Stu,” Bobby said with a smile of his own “So, are you ready to do this?” Bobby nodded. “Yeah, I think I am. I’m honestly surprised I got any sleep last night with how much I’m looking forward to this.” Sam chuckled. “We’ve got some oatmeal here for breakfast if you’re hungry.” Bobby nodded again. “I’d like that.” He walked over to the table, and Stu brought him a bowl of oatmeal, which Bobby began eating immediately. It didn’t take him long to eat it, and, when he finished, he got up, walked to the sink, and washed his dishes. After that, he looked back at the other two males. “Okay, I think I’m all set to go,” he said, adjusting his clothing. “Eager, are you,” Stu said with a smirk. “Extremely,” Bobby replied. “Well, in this case, I’d say that’s a good thing. I guess we’d better get you over there,” Sam remarked as he and Stu finished cleaning up their dishes. “I agree. And since I picked you up, I’ll be taking you there, seeing as your car is back at your apartment,” Stu commented. “Bobby laughed but nodded. “Ready when you are,” he replied. With that, the three of them headed out to Stu’s van after gathering their suits, climbed in, and made the drive to Charles’ place. Bobby noticed that Gideon’s van was there already, and he smiled as soon as he saw it. “Looks like Gid beat me here,” he said with a laugh. “Looks that way,” Sam said with a chuckle. “I see your mother’s car here too.” Bobby chuckled. “I should probably get inside.” “Good idea,” Sam commented. The three of them climbed out of Stu’s van. As Bobby was about to open the front door of Charles’ house, someone from the other side opened it instead. He was met with the sight of Theo, who looked at him with a smile. “Oh! Hi, Bobby. How are you?” The porcupine chuckled. “I’m doing fine. I'm a little nervous, but mostly, I’m just excited.” Theo gave him a quick hug before stepping out of the way to allow the three males to enter. “You happened to catch me just as I was about to go see Larry and Gary. They need some help getting the food brought over.” Bobby nodded. “I’ll leave you to it then, Theo. Is Tidus here?” “Mmhmm. He’s talking with Gideon.” He paused. “Are you still planning on staying out of sight of each other until the wedding?” Bobby went quiet for a moment. “You know... I’m not sure whether they want to or not. I mean, technically we did spend the night away from each other already, and...” The porcupine’s voice was cut off by the sound of Gideon’s voice. “Ah ain’t waitin’ that long ta see ya. Last night was hard enough.” Gideon then came up behind him and hugged him tightly. This made Bobby laugh again. “Aloha, Gid.” When the fox let him go, Bobby immediately kissed him. “I missed you.” Gideon kissed him back. “Ah missed ya too. Ah already told Travis the same thing.” “Well, then I guess that answers that question. Where is he?” “He’s with his Dad right now, out back. Ya should take a look back there. It looks great,” Gideon commented. “I’ll do that in a second,” he said, turning back to Theo. “I have a question. Unrelated to the wedding, I mean.” “What is it, Bobby,” Theo asked. “How’s the baby doing,” he asked, gesturing to Theo’s belly. Theo laughed softly. “He’s doing fine so far. Thank you for asking.” “And you? Are you doing alright? Your duties as Best Men aren’t making things too hard for you guys, are they?” Theo shook his head. “Not at all. Everything has been going just fine. Whenever I need a break, I just stop what I’m doing. You don’t need to worry.” Bobby nodded. “Okay, good... Anyway, I’ll let you go, so you can go get the food. Aloha for now, Theo.” “Bye, Bobby,” Theo said as he left. Gideon smiled. “Shall we?” “Yeah. Let’s go.” He turned back to face his dad and Stu. “We’ll be right behind you,” Stu told him. Bobby nodded and made his way outside. Travis almost immediately spotted him and stopped talking with his dad to greet him. “Hi, Bobby.” Bobby walked over, grabbed Travis, and kissed him. “Aloha, Travis. How are you?” “Excited. Nervous.” The ferret chuckled. “So, just like me then.” “And me,” Gideon added. “Right,” the ferret replied. Bobby looked around the backyard. As he did, he saw it was decorated in different shades of blues and greens. The fence surrounding the house had streamers lining it, and the chairs for the guests were of alternating colors between the two. He also noticed a bluish-green podium in front of all the chairs. This made him smile as he turned to look at Charles. “It looks nice out here.” “Thank you. We did our best to make sure it looked good,” Charles told him. “I can see that. I love it,” Bobby told him. “I’m glad we made the right choice then,” came the voice of Gideon’s mother, Amanda. Bobby, Gideon and Travis all turned around to see the vixen there. “We put a lot of work into the decorations,” she told them. “It looks great, Mama,” Gideon replied as he walked over, hugging her. “Mahalo for putting in the work to do it. I’m sure you all spent a lot of time getting everything ready,” Bobby commented. “You’re not wrong,” Kara commented as she came outside, walking over to Bobby and hugging him. “We spent several hours setting things up, and that doesn’t even count all the time we spent shopping for it all.” She let out a small laugh. “I believe it,” Bobby commented. He then looked at Gideon. “Where did Tidus go? Theo said he was originally talking with you before I got here?” “Turn around,” came the horse’s voice. Bobby did as instructed, and, almost immediately, he was hugged by the horse. “Aloha, Tidus.” “Aloha. It’s good to see you,” Tidus replied. “It’s good to see you too,” Bobby remarked. “What are you up to?” “I wanted to let you know that the guests have started arriving. I’ll be heading up front to greet everyone,” Tidus told him. “Oh! Okay. Mahalo for letting us know.” “We should probably think about getting changed,” Travis commented. “That’s a good idea. If guests have started arriving, then it won’t be too much longer before things get started,” Bobby commented. He looked at Charles. “I need to grab my suit real quick, but where can we go to change?” “My room is the last door on the right upstairs if you’d like to use that one,” Charles told him. “Mahalo,” Bobby replied. As he turned around to head back to the car, however, Stu handed him his suit. “Bought it with me. I figured you were too excited to think about it, so I grabbed it for you,” Stu told him. “Mahalo, Stu,” Bobby replied, blushing a bit. “Let's get changed.” Bobby, Gideon, Travis, Sam and Stu all headed upstairs to Charles’ bedroom. When they got there, they wasted no time changing out of their regular clothes. As Bobby was getting dressed, he had a smile on his face. He turned to look at Travis. “I’m a little surprised you weren’t already in your clothes for the wedding before I got here, considering you’ve been here since last night.” “I didn’t want to risk messing them up,” Travis said as he started getting into his suit. “Makes sense,” Bobby remarked. When Bobby finished getting his suit on, he looked himself over. “How do I look?” Gideon looked at him as he finished getting dressed himself. “Ya look great. What about me?” “You look perfect,” Bobby told him. “I agree,” Travis commented, smoothing out his suit as he finished getting dressed himself. “Ya look pretty good yerself there, Travis,” Gideon told the ferret. Sam and Stu got themselves dressed as the three talked to each other. When they finished, Sam spoke up. “I think you all look great. Are you ready to head downstairs and see everyone?” “Definitely,” Bobby commented. “Let’s go,” Travis added. Stu smiled. “After you,” he said, gesturing to the doorway. As the five of them headed back down, they saw a few furs had already gotten there. Among them, Bobby noticed both Leodore and Jasper. When he spotted them, he pointed them out to Gideon and Travis before walking over. “Aloha!” Jasper turned to greet him. “Bobby! Travis! Gideon! There you are! How are you three?” Bobby laughed. “Ready to get things started. I’m glad it won’t be too much longer.” Leodore chuckled as well. “Nope. The three of you will be married soon.” “Ah can’t wait,” Gideon remarked. Jasper laughed. “You’ll have to. It’s not time to start yet.” Gideon laughed too. “Ah know. Just sayin’.” “You three should go mingle with your guests,” Leo told them. “There are quite a few of them here.” “Yeah, we know,” Travis said. “We wanted to make sure we didn’t miss anyone, and we had a pretty big list of family and friends we wanted included in it.” “All the more reason for you to go and mingle,” Sam commented. “I think Stu and I are going to do a bit of that ourselves and leave you three to spend time with the others without us following you.” “Sounds good, Dad.” Bobby hugged him. “See you in a bit.” With that, Sam and Stu went one way, while the other three went another. It didn’t take long before they found themselves stopped by a couple of familiar faces. Namely, those of Koslov and Dimitri. “Privet,” Koslov said as he saw him coming over. “Privet, Koslov! Good morning, Dimitri. How are you,” Bobby asked the pair. “Doing good,” Koslov said. “We just got here. Is good to see you all.” “It’s good ta see the two of ya as well. We’re glad ya could make it,” Gideon told them. “This is not something either of us would want to miss,” Dimitri commented. “It’s a very special day.” “Da,” Koslov added. “You three get married. Wanted to be here like you there for ours.” “And here you are,” Travis said. “I hope it wasn’t too much trouble getting here.” “It was a peaceful trip here,” Dimitri told him. “Renato has always been a very good driver, and this was no exception.” “So I’m guessing he’s here too, then,” Bobby asked. “Yes. Along with Emmitt and his family.” “That’s good to hear. I think we’ll go say hello.” “Good plan,” the arctic shrew commented. “We’ll see you again soon.” “Aloha for now,” Bobby said, as he and his boyfriends continued looking around. The next people they spotted were Nick and Finnick. Both of them were sipping on drinks as they walked over. “Hey, you three.” Nick smiled at them. “Aloha, guys. It’s good to see you.” “Like we’d miss this,” Finnick gave Bobby a smirk. “Today’s pretty important.” “No kiddin’,” Gideon remarked. “Probably one of the most important days of our lives.” “Right,” Travis agreed. “It means a lot to have you guys here,” Bobby told them. “We know. Have you seen anyone else yet,” Nick asked. “We saw Kosolv and Dimitri just before you. We haven’t had the chance to find anyone else yet, because we only just got down here after getting dressed a few minutes ago,” Bobby told him. “Well, then we won’t keep ya,” Flinnick remarked, making shooing motions with his free paw. “Go on. We’ll chat more later.” Bobby chuckled and stepped up to Finnick, whispering. “Be a good boy for me while I’m gone, alright, son?” Whispering back, the fennec replied. “I will, Daddy.” “Good.” Bobby turned back to Gideon and Travis. “Where to next, guys?” “It looks like Ben just got here,” Travis commented. “Let’s go see how he’s doing.” “Sounds good to me.” Bobby walked over toward the cheetah, following behind Travis and Gideon. As they approached, Bobby called out. “Hey, Ben.” “Bobby! Travis! Gideon! O M Goodness! You three look great,” the cheetah replied. “Thank ya,” Gideon replied, with Bobby and Travis thanking him as well. Ben looked at them with a big smile. “You’re welcome.” He looked around for a moment. “It looks nice out here too.” “Yeah. Our parents outdid themselves decorating,” Bobby replied. “It definitely looks that way,” came the voice of the cheetah’s mate from behind them. The four of them turned to see the cape buffalo making his way over with two cups in his paws. One of which, he handed to Ben as he walked to his side. Azaan then turned to the other three. “It’s quite a nice day out today. Perfect weather for the wedding.” “Agreed,” Bobby remarked. “Glad you could make it.” “We’re both happy to be a part of this, as I’m sure you know,” Azaan told him. “Ya wouldn’t be here if ya didn’t want ta be,” Gideon commented. “Right.” “No trouble making it here, I hope,” Bobby asked. “None,” Azaan commented. “That’s good to hear.” As the group was talking, another voice called out. “Bobby?” Bobby’s ears perked up and he turned toward the source of the voice. Doing so led to him looking right at two elephants, both of which he knew. He made a gesture with his paw to get their attention and waited until the two of them had come over to speak. “Aloha, Jerry. Aloha, Lucas.” “Hey, Bobby,” Lucas said in a soft voice. He looked at the porcupine in silence for several moments before he spoke again. “Thank you for inviting me to your wedding. We don’t even really know each other all that well, so I have to admit I was surprised when you sent me the invite.” “You’re a friend, Lucus. I wanted you to be part of it. It doesn’t matter how long we’ve known each other,” Bobby told him. “That’s what I tried to tell him,” Jerry told him. “I’ve learned, in the time we’ve known each other, that it doesn’t take much for you to call someone a friend, so I wasn’t surprised when he told me you sent him an invite to this wedding.” Travis spoke up. “We wanted to be sure all our friends got invited.” “And that included you, Lucas,” Bobby added in. “Well, thank you... So.... you’re probably tired of hearing this question, but how are you guys feeling,” Lucas asked. Bobby snickered. “Nervous. Excited. We’re wishing the time would come sooner.” “That makes sense,” Lucas replied. “It’s not going to be too much longer, though. Right?” “Nope. But it doesn’t make the waiting any easier.” Azaan spoke up. “I’m sure the wait will be worth it.” “Oh, I know it will. I’m looking forward to it.” “Me too,” Gideon and Travis replied at the same time. About a second later, Bobby felt himself get hugged from behind. He didn’t have a chance to ask who it was before the fur spoke. The voice came from Xander, who hugged Gideon and Travis after letting go of him. “Hey, you three.” “Aloha, Xander. Glad you could make it." "As I'm sure you've heard from several people by now, there's no way I'd miss this," the rabbit remarked. "Yeah, you're right. Several people have said that already," Travis told him. "Anyway, I'm sure there are a lot of people you still need to say hello to, but I wanted to make sure you knew I was here." Xander looked at Lucas and Jerry. "Hey." Neither elephant said anything, but they gave a small wave. "Anyway, I suppose I'll see you three soon," the rabbit remarked. "Ya definitely will, seein' as this is our weddin'," Gideon replied with a smirk. Xander laughed at that, hugged the three of them again, and walked off. After he had, Bobby turned his attention back to the two elephants. Before he could speak, however, he was interrupted again. This time, he'd been interrupted by the voice of his father. "Bobby? Could you come here for a second, please?" Bobby raised a brow at this, but he turned in the direction of Sam's voice to see the elder porcupine gesturing him over. he looked back to the other two. "I'll be right back, guys." After being shooed away by Gideon, he walked over to his Dad, who led him back inside. Sam led Bobby through the kitchen, spotting Lary and Gary who were prepping some things for the barbecue. He then took him through the living room, where many more of his friends were busy talking. Sam didn't say a word until the two of them had gotten upstairs, and they were back in Charles' bedroom. "I want to give you something." "We had to go somewhere private for you to give it to me," Bobby asked. "We didn't have to, but... given what it is, I figured you'd likely want to be somewhere where others wouldn't see your reaction," Sam told him. "What do you mean," Bobby asked. Sam walked over to the nearby bed and lifted one of the pillows, retrieving a small box from underneath it. He then walked back over to Bobby and handed the box to him. Bobby examined the box briefly before he opened it. Inside the box was a silver coin. The coin had a small porcupine engraved into it. Bobby looked at the coin quietly for several moments before looking back to his dad. “That coin has brought me a lot of good luck since I got married to your mother, and it’s brought me even more since Stu became my mate as well. I’m passing it on to you to give you luck in your coming marriage, Bobby.” It was only after those words were spoken that Bobby got teary-eyed. He looked down at the coin again, then he looked back at his dad. “Mahalo, Dad. I’ll treasure it, just as you did.” “I know you will, Bobby,” Sam told him. “I love you.” “I love you too. Mahalo for the gift.” He closed the box again, closing his fingers around it and closing his eyes for several moments as he composed himself. He then carefully slid the box into his pocket before hugging his dad. “Now, come on. I’m sure there are a few others you’d like to see before the wedding starts,” Sam commented. Bobby looked at a clock that was on the nearby wall. “Only an hour to go... Wow. I can’t believe it’s almost time...” Sam nodded. “Are you ready for it,” he asked as he opened the door, walking out with his son. “I think so. At least, I’m as ready as I think I can be,” the younger porcupine replied as he made his way back downstairs. When he had, he spotted Duke, who walked over to him just as he was heading for the back door. “Hey there, Spiky.” Bobby laughed. “Aloha, Duke. Glad ya made it.” “First time I’ve ever been invited to one, actually,” the weasel remarked. “I’m grateful to have been included.” “I wouldn’t leave you out. I wanted all of my ohana to be here. That includes you.” Duke blushed. “Thanks...” “You’re welcome.” “Hey, Bobby,” a voice called out. Bobby turned in the direction of the voice to see Michael coming over. This made him smile. “Michael! Aloha!” The tanuki walked over and stood beside Duke. “Oh! Hi, Duke. How are you?” “Doing okay, I guess. Just chatting with Bobby,” Duke replied. The tanuki nodded and turned to the porcupine. “It won’t be too much longer.” “Nope,” Bobby replied. “Just under an hour to go.” “Yep.” Michael walked up to him and hugged him tightly, with Bobby returning the hug and rubbing his sides. “So, I’m guessing you’re still greeting people?” “I’m trying to,” Bobby replied. “I had to step away from Gid and Travis to take care of something, though, so I’m gonna work my way back to them, wherever they are.” “Ya won’t have ta look too far,” came Gideon’s voice. Bobby chuckled as he turned his head to see the fox and ferret coming up to him. “Your ears must have been burning.” “Nah. We were lookin’ fer ya, because we need ta talk to ya about somethin’ before the weddin’ started,” Gideon told him. “Oh! Sure. What’s up?” “Well, uhhh... It’s kinda private,” Travis remarked, rubbing his neck. “This made Bobby laugh. “Alright then,” he said as he looked at Michael and Duke. “Guess I’ll see you both later.” “Definitely,” Duke replied, with Michael giving a nod. Bobby then walked with Gideon and Travis, who led him back upstairs again, and to Charles’ room once more. “What is it, guys? Is everything okay?” Gideon looked at Travis. “Go ahead and tell him... It’ll be okay. Ah promise.” After several moments, Travis spoke, though he sounded extremely upset. “I’m scared, Bobby.” “Scared? Scared of what,” he asked. “Scared that something’s gonna go wrong. Scared that when we’re actually out there, you’ll... that you’re gonna...” Bobby’s eyes grew. He wasn’t sure why, but something told him, just based on the ferret’s tone, that he knew what was wrong. “... That I’m only actually going to marry Gid, and that you’re going to be left out of it.” Travis fell silent and nodded. “Travis... I wouldn’t do that to you. That thought never even entered my mind. I love you just as much as I love Gideon. This wedding is for all three of us,” Bobby said. As he did, he raised the ferret’s head so their eyes met. “You’re special to me. I want to marry you both, not just him.” “Why,” is all Travis could say. “Because you make me happy. You make me feel loved. You’ve done that every day since I’ve known you. There isn’t a single part of me that doesn’t want to take you as my husband, Travis. Please... put that thought out of your head. I love you.” With those words, Bobby kissed Travis on the lips, wrapping his paws around the ferret. “Ya see, Travis? Ah told ya there was nothin’ ta worry about,” Gideon said as he joined in the hug. “Ah love ya, and so does he. And in a little while, the three of us are gonna be married. Yer a special part of our lives, and we’re not lettin’ ya go.” “Never,” Bobby added as he held onto the ferret. “I’m sorry. I’ve been so worried... I... I had a nightmare about it last night, and it’s been on my mind all morning.” Bobby let Travis go. “I’m sorry to hear that, Travis, but I promise you that’s not going to happen.” Gideon smiled. “Come on, Travis. Smile fer us... Please?” It took the ferret several moments, but he did smile as he looked at the two of them. “Thank you.” “You’re welcome,” Bobby replied. He looked back at the clock again. “Heh. I guess we should start getting ready.” The three of them spent the next several minutes cleaning themselves up, making sure they looked their best for the wedding. Eventually, they heard a knock at the door. Charles spoke up. “Boys? May I come in?” Travis spoke up. “Yeah, sure. Come on in, Dad.” The door opened and the elder ferret stepped inside. “How are you, boys?” “Doing good, Dad. We just finished cleaning ourselves up.” “That’s good. I wanted to ask how you three wanted to handle the wedding itself. Did you all want to come down the aisle together, or did you want to do it one at a time,” Charles asked. Travis looked back to Bobby and Gideon. “What do you think, guys?” “Ah think ah kinda like the idea of us goin’ down the aisle together. Ah think that sounds kinda sweet,” Gideon stated. “I think so too,” Bobby added. “We’ve already seen each other so there’s little we could do to surprise each other if we went down one at a time, right?” “Fair enough,” Charles commented. “Are you three ready?” Bobby looked at Gideon and Travis, who both nodded with a smile. He then looked back to Charles. “We’re ready.” Charles stepped back into the hallway. Standing outside of it were both Tyler and Sam, who looked at the others with smiles on their faces. “Ready to do this, Bobby,” Sam asked. “Absolutely,” Bobby said. “What about you, Gid,” Tyler asked his son. “Ah’m ready. Let’s do this,” Gideon replied. The six of them made their way back downstairs. The living room was now empty, but many voices could now be heard in the backyard, where everyone was now seated and waiting. As soon as the group had reached the back door, Bobby Catmull, who’d had his keyboard set up nearby, began playing some soft music. Bobby looked back at Gideon and Travis. “Hey, guys?” Both Gideon and Travis spoke at the same time. “Yeah?” “I love you,” the porcupine said. “We love you too,” the other two replied. Charles looked at Travis. “Shall we?” He gestured toward the door. With a soft nod, the ferret smiled. “Yeah.” He then proceeded to walk out the back door with Charles at his side. He then began slowly walking up the aisle to where Jasper was waiting with a smile on his face. Once he was in his spot, Charles stepped to one side, waiting beside Tidus and Theo. Behind him, Bobby and his father followed. As they got outside, Bobby couldn’t help looking out over all the furs that were there. Just seeing the number of people there was enough to make him smile as he walked up the aisle as well. He took his place beside Travis, with Sam standing beside Charles. Right behind them was Gideon, being walked up with Tyler. As he saw his two soon-to-be-husbands standing at the altar, he choked up a bit but continued walking until he was also at their side, leaving his father to stand beside Charles and Sam. Jasper looked at the three of them and had a soft smile of his own on his face. Once Travis, Bobby and Gideon were in place, he spoke up, looking out to the crowd of furs that were there for the wedding. “We are gathered here today to celebrate the union of these three furs. The love they have shared has been strong through the years, and, today, they have come here to strengthen that love with the act of marriage. Should there be anyone present that has a reason these three should not be married, please speak now, or forever hold your peace.” The yard fell silent as Jasper waited. Though not a word was spoken by anyone, it was clear that Travis was still expecting something to happen. He looked relieved when Jasper spoke up once more. “These three are sharing their lives from this day forward, and doing so with the act of marriage is the greatest gift of love they can give.” Jasper turned to Bobby. “Bobby, do you take Gideon and Travis to be your lawfully wedded husbands? To have and to hold, to love and to cherish, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, until death do you part?” With no hesitation, and with the smile still on his face, Bobby spoke. “I do.” Jasper nodded and turned to Gideon next. “Gideon, do you take Bobby and Travis to be your lawfully wedded husbands? To have and to hold, to love and to cherish, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, until death do you part?” “Ah do,” the fox said, with a smile on his face as well. Jasper nodded again and turned to Travis. “Travis, do you take Bobby and Gideon to be your lawfully wedded husbands? To have and to hold, to love and to cherish, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, until death do you part?” Travis looked at both Gideon and Bobby, who just looked at him in return without a word. He then looked back at Jasper, wiping a tear away that had formed in his eye. “I do.” The rabbit nodded. “As I understand it, these three have each written their own vows, so...” He gestured to Travis. “Feel free to start.” Travis took a deep breath, reaching into his pocket for a moment and pulling out a folded-up piece of paper. He unfolded it and looked over what was on it for several moments before folding it back up again and looking at Gideon and Bobby. “Bobby... Gideon... Today is a day I thought would never come. I felt like no one could ever love me, because of my nature and the way I act about certain things. Gid, I’ve known you ever since we were kids, and yet, despite my awkwardness, you’ve remained at my side. As we got older, you even let me live with you and help you with your shop. You’ve been a great friend over the years. And that’s only continued to get better as we’ve become mates. And Bobby, even though I haven’t known you as long, you make me feel just as important and cared about, and have ever since the day we first met five years ago. I find it amazing that someone so young can be so sweet. As I stand here today, ready to take you two as my husbands, I want you both to know, that I will always do my best to show you the same love, care and kindness you have shown me. Every day, I’ll do everything I can to let you both know you can count on me to help you whenever you need it, just as you’ve done for me.” Bobby and Gideon’s smiles both grew. Jasper gave Travis a soft smile as well, turning to Gideon next. Gideon reached into his pocket and pulled out what looked like an index card, which he looked over briefly before tucking it away again. “Travis... Bobby... Ah can’t tell ya how happy ah am that ah’m here right now. Knowin’ that ah’m standin’ here with the two of ya fills me with so much joy. Travis, ya put up with a lot of my problems in the past and still stuck by me, even though most furs would have run away and hid. Ya helped me ta seek help and get better. Over the years, ya helped ta make me a successful bakery owner too. Ah know ya don’t like takin’ credit fer that, but it’s true. Ah don’t think ah’d be where ah am without ya. And Bobby, knowin’ that ah won yer heart when ya were just thirteen years old amazes me. Ya were quite the amazin’ cub when we first met, and, every day, ah see that heart of yours, and it makes me happy ta know ah can call ya mine. Ah’m standin’ here with, in mah opinion, the two best furs in Bunnyburrow, and ah vow every day ta make sure ya know how much ah appreciate how special ya both make me feel. The three of us bein’ married is somethin’ ah’ve been lookin’ forward ta fer quite a while now, and it’s somethin’ ah’ll work every day ta prove ah deserve. Ah promise ta put mah heart into everythin’ ah do, ta make the two of ya feel as special as ya make me feel.” Bobby smiled again and Travis wiped a tear from his eye as he smiled as well. Jasper nodded and turned to Bobby. Bobby reached into his pocket and pulled out a piece of paper, but he paused after doing so, looking like he was thinking about something, then crumpled up the paper and stuffed it back in his pocket. Travis gave him a concerned look, but he noticed the smile was still on Bobby’s face. “I have to be honest... I never finished writing my vows,” Bobby said. “I couldn’t figure out what I wanted to say. And, as I’m sure most of you know, that’s something that just doesn’t happen with me. Writing is usually something I’m good at, but this time... the words just wouldn’t come... So... you’ll have to settle with what’s in my heart right now.” This got a chuckle from several furs. “Gideon, when I was thirteen years old, we met and things just clicked with us. I didn’t know how or why, but I just went with it. You were so kind and caring about it too. There was just something about you that drew me to you. I didn’t care about the age difference. All I saw was a sweet and loving fox.” He then turned to Travis. “And Travis, it may have taken a bit longer for us to become mates, but, even when we were just friends, I couldn’t help noticing how kind and sweet you were. Your personality reminded me of me in many ways. I liked what I saw, and, as time went on, that feeling just grew. When we finally became mates, I was so happy. I know you were worried about it messing things up with Gid and me, but, as you’ve seen, it’s only made our bond better. Your sweet and gentle nature is something I feel happy whenever I see.” He smiled. “You’ve both shown me a great deal of love and kindness. I have to admit, knowing I’m here and about to get married makes me happier than I think I can ever put into words. I want you both to know that I will always love and cherish you both. I will do everything in my power to take care of you and be there for you whenever you need it. No matter what the future holds, I promise I’ll be there to help you through it all.” Travis looked like he was ready to cry, but, after taking a deep breath, he managed to keep himself composed and, instead, just smiled again. The fox beside him smiled as well. “I’m quite pleased to have witnessed such heartfelt words coming from the three of you,” Jasper said. “And, having heard them, I believe we should now move forward to the exchanging of the rings. The way I understand it, there are only three rings. One for each of you.” Bobby, Travis and Gideon nodded. Tidus stepped up, presenting the rings. Jasper then looked to the three of them, and Bobby Gestured to Gideon to take the first ring. Gideon did so before he and Bobby turned to Travis. “Jasper spoke up. “Bobby and Gideon, please repeat after me. We give you this ring as a symbol of our love and devotion. Our love for you is endless, just as this ring is. We choose you to be our husband today and until the end of time.” Bobby and Gideon both smiled and, in unison, spoke. “We give you this ring as a symbol of our love and devotion. Our love for you is endless, just as this ring is. We choose you to be our husband today and until the end of time.” With those words, Gideon slid the ring onto Travis’ finger. Looking at the ring, the ferret couldn’t help getting choked up, but he then looked back at the other two with a smile. He then took the next ring before focusing his attention on Bobby. Gideon focused on Bobby as well. Jasper spoke up again. “Gideon and Travis, please repeat after me. We give you this ring as a symbol of our love and devotion. Our love for you is endless, just as this ring is. We choose you to be our husband today and until the end of time.” Not even a second later, the two spoke, together. “We give you this ring as a symbol of our love and devotion. Our love for you is endless, just as this ring is. We choose you to be our husband today and until the end of time.” Travis then slid the ring onto Bobby’s finger. Bobby looked at the ring, which made the smile that was already on his face grow bigger. He had to reach up and wipe a tear from his eye before he took the final ring, focusing his attention on Gideon. Travis turned his attention to Gideon as well. Jasper spoke up again. “Travis and Bobby, please repeat after me. We give you this ring as a symbol of our love and devotion. Our love for you is endless, just as this ring is. We choose you to be our husband today and until the end of time.” The two of them spoke shortly after. “We give you this ring as a symbol of our love and devotion. Our love for you is endless, just as this ring is. We choose you to be our husband today and until the end of time.” Jasper looked out to the crowd of furs watching. “With the vows complete and the rings exchanged, it gives me great pleasure to present this newlywed trio.” He then turned his attention to Bobby, Gideon and Travis. “Bobby, Gideon and Travis, you may now seal your wedding with a kiss.” The three of them shared their kisses amongst the crowd of cheering furs. Bobby was the first to speak afterward. “I love you.” “We love you, too,” Gideon and Travis replied.
