Personal Narrative: A Humorous Wedding
Tomorrow I get married. You looked at yourself in the mirror, wearing your veil and holding your bouquet. You were still wearing your clothes from earlier that day which made for a strange combination with the fine lace draped on your hair and the calla lilies in your hands. It was a sight to take in and, somehow, made it seem very real and frightening.
“I can’t do this,” you told your reflection. Your whole life you had been afraid of commitment, or more accurately, of making the jump to tell someone how you felt about them. Tomorrow you were scheduled to do just that in front of hundreds of people you both knew and didn’t know. Was it really worth it? Was it worth the embarrassment? Oh God. What if he says ‘no’? The thought made you feel

Noticing for the first time what he was wearing, you were a bit stunned. Knowing Loki, he preferred formal wear and his typical Asgardian garb. Today he was wearing dark wash jeans, a cozy black sweater, and a chunky knit, green, winter scarf. He caught you staring.
“I, uh… went shopping,” he said, looking at the ground while fidgeting with his hands. “I figured it best to not attract too much attention, and someone once told me that you should never show up dressed better than the bride.”
You had told him that. You remembered when you had told him that and why, and you smiled for a second, reminiscing about that day. You remembered Loki walking out to the foyer of your apartment, all bedecked in Asgardian wedding attire, stating that he was ready to accompany you to your cousin’s wedding. You remembered the joy and laughter of that day.
But that was a different time. “Why are you here?” you demanded.
“I’ve come to confess my feelings.”
“Well it’s a little late for that now, isn’t it? I’m marrying Mark

(Y/N), I still love you.”
“Loki, you can’t just come to claim me the night before my wedding! That’s not how it works!” Your frustration was coming all out at once as you struck him with your blunt sword of your words. “You don’t understand! I’ve spent thousands of dollars on tomorrow! My dress, the cake, the venue, all the guests will be waiting! I’ve spent so much time and money and effor-“
Silenced by his lips, you shut your eyes. It was like Mark and the wedding had never existed as you experienced the déjà vu kiss. Loki cradled your head with one hand and, via his magic, you saw all that you were together, in the past and future, playing through the images in your mind; images of the first time you met, your first kiss, fights, laying next to him after making love. They flashed behind your eyelids so fast that you were becoming dizzy. There was also something incredibly soft and sweet in his lips and a unique fluttering in your stomach that was unlike how you were with Mark. As you pulled away, you stared at those incredibly close green eyes, trying to steady

Even though he wore a mask which made him unrecognisable, it was already enough for me to be certain of how handsome he was. Maybe the reason I'm here tonight isn't because of Paris but because of him and maybe it is fate that I'm in the same room as my first love. Every…

    he gave you a warning look and you open your mouth to reply but quickly closed it in a huff to avoid an argument, “look, you can go on a mission but take someone else with you.” “Yeah, okay fine.” you stopped leaning against the railing and straightened your short black kimono, before checking that your golden sash was tied securely. “Alright, I’ll be back as soon as I can. Don’t do anything stupid,” he reached out and places his hand on the side of your face, cupping your cheek for a moment before pulling you in and giving you a quick kiss on the forehead.…

    It was April again. The same month I first dreamt of him four years ago. The same month I met him a year ago in the flesh and the month I would separate from him. Servants scrambled, to make last minute preparations for the wedding. I managed to disappear to train. A day was not much time. Then again, escaping a death cult is something nobody could prepare for. I learned to the best of my ability the art of archery, shooting guns, driving stakes through the hearts of monsters, and chopping the head off an opponent.…

    The day started in a small where a small prayer was held before we headed out to the reception. My cousin sat at the front in her big blue, poofy dress while the guests all sat in the pews behind her waiting for the sermon to begin. The priest went through the prayer pretty quickly and my family and I rushed to the reception hall to make sure everything was ready by the time the guests arrived. My cousin was to arrive at a later time with her court of chambelanes. When I entered the reception hall, I was astonished by how beautiful everything looked. It resembled a disco ball with mirrors all around, even on the ceiling; the tables were covered in all white table cloths with a small blue centerpiece to match the quinceañera's dress; there were probably more balloons than there was people and the chandelier in the center of the dance floor brought the whole place together with its luxurious dripping crystals. When it was time for my cousin to arrive, a long, white Hummer stretch limo dropped her and her chambelanes off. As she entered, she greeted the few guests that had already arrived. With the light shining on her, she looked like Cinderella in her light blue dress which shined from all the glitter and diamonds it was covered…

    I can’t recall the day I first met my husband. I had seen him at work for a few weeks, and I was beyond intimidated. He strutted around the production floor of the food manufacturing plant where we both worked. He was a supervisor with a reputation for being hard and demanding, but his crew was loyal. He had a long goatee and even longer curly dark hair, which when not in a bun, fell past his waist. His hair had orange stripes from a hair bleaching gone wrong. When combined with his massive tattoo covered biceps, he seemed completely unapproachable; and he was Tongan. He was not a man to be messed with and I needed him, literally. I needed to earn some extra money for an upcoming vacation. The only way to get extra hours was to stay after my shift, and work on his crew, and the only way to work on his crew was to ask him directly.…
