Shark Attack ~ Dave x Reader ~ Part 5

Your name is Dave Strider. You are 25 years old, and you swear you want to punch the waiter in the face.

    You TOLD the guy to keep all of the fan girls out, but the fucking dude lied. You wear just about to call your bodyguards, when the waiter finally listened and took the girls away. You sighed happily and smiled a bit. THANK GOG.

    What is Dave doing here you ask, reader? Well, you had been trying out all the fanciest restaurants you could find. All of them sucked, and you wanted to see if this one would be good enough for ____. Ahh yes. Your girlfriend ____ ____ of 8 years. In two weeks, would be the anniversary of your relationship. So to celebrate, you wanted to do something special.

And you were going to do just that.

You smirked to yourself as the damn waiter brought you your food. It was pretty fucking good.

~One Week later~

    You walked around the jewelers with your cruches, stopping at the ring selection. You fingered a charm ____ had given you for your 20th birthday. You looked at the silver rings. ____ didnt like gold all that much. "Hi! Do you need help looking for a ring?" A small petite woman asked. Her name tag read Mrs. Paint.

"Yeah. I do actually."

~Another week later~

    You were nervous. You were sitting in the passenger seat of the car as ____ drove you and herself to the restaurant. You patted your pocket again to make sure the box was still there. It was. ____ drove in silence as she concentrated. Some of your songs quietly played in the background. ____ was dressed in a long dark dress. Printed all over were galaxies and stars. You had learned she made it herself while you were at work.

    ____ worked at a successful art and fashion shop she owned. She only went in to drop off her latest works of clothes or drawings. She mostly did black and white drawings, but sometimes she would paint pictures. About half of them were in your shared house. It wasn't big, but you no longer lived in the city. You both had moved to the suburbs 5 years ago. Bro stayed in Huston. He just couldn't leave the apartment. But he did visit two times a week for dinner and a night.

    The house you both owned had been payed off very fast. So had the car. And the pool. And a few other things you both had added. Although you were famous, you didn't see the point in having a large house. Neither did ____, so you bought a 4 bedroom, 3 and a half bathroom house with a basement, a large backyard, and a basement. The house was two stories and was worth every penny you paid. And you loved that you lived there with ____.

    You were taken out off your thoughts when the car stopped. You looked to see you had parked and ____ was looking at you with a smile. "Happy Anniversary~!" She lightly kissed your lips and got out of the car to help you. You unbuckled your seat belt and opened the door. ____ came over with a metal leg that had a knee that could bend. You pulled up the left leg of your tux until it reach above your amputation.

    The shark that had bit your leg off was a great white. And it had been trying to go for the kill. You shuddered at the thought as ____ slipped the leg on and pulled your pant leg back down. You swung your legs over the side of the car and pushed yourself up as she got the crutches from the backseat and handed them to you. "Are you sure you don't want the wheelchair Davey? It won't ruin our evening if thats what you think!" She looked worried.

    You shook your head and handed her your shades to put in her purse. "Nah. I'll deal. I just want to feel sorta normal is all." You had gotten used to not wearing your sunglasses, but you still wore them a lot. You slipped the walking devices under your arms. "Come on ____. Lets get inside. I would offer you an arm," You smirked. You are pretty sure she could she the sillyness in your eyes. "But im currently using these pieces of shit." She giggled and locked the car.

~20 Minute timeskip~

    You had both ordered some super expensive food, and were now just sitting at the table talking. When the waiter came, you asked how long your food would be. She said 20 minutes. Just enough time.... You thought to yourself. You looked over to your girlfriend. ____ was talking about a movie her and Vriska had seen. It was a newer Nic Cage flick, but she said it was good. You will never know how John had dragged Vriska into those movies.

    And you didn't think she would keep watching them. After John died, Vriska was no longer a bitch. And it scared the shit out of you most times.

    ____'s voice brought you out of your thoughts. "Why don't you like Nic Cage, Davey?" Damn you wish you had your shades right now. She could read your face. "Well uhhhhh......for starters.......I have no fucking clue. I guess the guy just disgusts me is all." You shrugged. You then checked your watch. 15 minutes until the food came. You were gonna do this.

Shit was going down.

    You suddenly became nervous and you felt your cheeks heat up. You reached into your pocket as you pulled out the small velvet box. You kept it hidden under the table. "Dave? Is there something wrong? Your face is flushed!" She reached a hand over and held it to your face. This caused you to be even more nervous than before.

"Well ummmm......... yeah i........ uhhhhhhhh..... need to ask you something ____......" You then slowly stood up and walked over to where ____ was sitting. Shit you were sweating now. She looked at you worried. You could see out of the corner of your eyes that people were starring and starting to whisper. ____ opened her mouth to say something, but she stopped when you got down on your left knee.

She gasped. As well as a bunch of people around you both.

"(full name)," You began as you looked at her. You grabbed one of her hands as she held the other over her mouth. " Ever since that day when i was sixteen and you saved my life, i felt a need to repay you. And this will probably be the most cheesiest rom com related thing you will ever hear come out of my mouth." She slightly giggled.

"But all these 8 years that we have been together, i guess my love for you has grown stronger. And i know for a fucking fact that i wont be able to live with out you. Because i lost half of my leg." There were a few chuckles around the room. "But the point of this god awful speech is, well that i love you ____. And i want to spend my life with you." You held the little box out and opened it. ____ was smiling like an idiot as tears ran down her face.

"So ____, Will you marry me?"

You are now yourself reader.

    Oh my holy mother fucking shit faced son of a GOD!. You rapidly nodded your head to the hopeful looking strider. "Yes! Yes! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS~!" You screeched as you practically jumped off the chair into Dave's arms. You kissed him full on the lips as you felt him slip the ring onto your finger. There was hooting and whistling and cheering and clapping coming from the people around you both.

    Dave pulled away and smiled at you like and idiot as you both held each other close. "That good. Thats fucking great because if you had said no, then i'd probably break down in tears of sadness and embarrassment as i rolled around in a pile of shit for the next 70 years of my life." You laughed at him and kissed him again. "I love you so much Dave, you don't even know!!!!" "I love you so fucking much ____, that YOU don't even know!"

For once in his life, Dave was happy to be showing his emotions. And he really liked the joy it brought him.

~1 year later~

    Your name is Vriska Serket, and you are putting the final touches to ____. "You look amaaaaaaaazing ____~!" You told her. You looked back at your work. You weren't as good as Kanaya, but you were still pretty damn amazing you thought so yourself. Your moirail ____ was wearing a very interesting wedding dress. You, Aranea, Rose, and Roxy had helped ____ with the decorations and the theme of the wedding. It was a gothic theme that you all decided on.

    ____ was wearing a long bushy dress. The top was made of a dark purple velvet that tied in the front like and old Renaissance dress. The string used was golden thread and it was anchored down by black clasps on the sides of the opening. The dress was strapless and brought out ____'s cleavage quite well. If you do say.

    The bushy part of her dress had a bottom layer of dark green satin. Over that, was many layers of a spider web print lace that every few inches, and end was pinned up by a crow. Dave had given the idea to that part. The bottom of the dress was also covered in dark purple glitter that shone every time ____ moved.

    She wore a pair of dark Egyptian sandals on here feet, and she had stolen a pair of Bro's fingerless gloves. Speaking of Bro, you remember being dragged along to his wedding with ____'s mom. It was a little disturbing. Anyways. Her makeup was probably the most badass part about the whole outfit.

    You smirked as you fixed her veil a little bit and looked back at your work. ____'s makeup was dark as well, but she still locked beautiful. You had given her lips a weird treatment that made them look full and lively. She had to colors of lipstick on too. The top lip was given a dark shade of purple, while the bottom was given a coat of black. Over her lips, you put some concealer or some weird shit so if she rubbed her lips, the lipstick wouldn't smudge or blend.

Kanaya would be proud.

     Her eyes had been given a coating of water proof, glitter, mascara. Her eyeshadow was set in a beautiful gradient of colors. It went from dark green, to dark blue, to dark purple, to brown, black, then grey and white. The eyeshadow was also water proof. Her hair had been curled and pilled on top of her head in a bun. Throughout her hair were little mini crows. Also the work of her fiance.

    Covering her hair and face was now a veil. The veil was attached to a small tiara that sat in the middle of her head. It was a grey color so it hid her face quite well. Her nails were done in Dave's favorite color, a bright red. It clashed with the entire fucking outfit. But hey! It wasn't your wedding!

    You smiled at ____ as she spun around in a circle to look at her self. She looked at you and smiled. "Thank you Vriska. Its amazing!" You grinned at her. "It's only great because your are wearing it hun!" You told her. She laughed. "Well you look great too, maid of honor!" Oh yeah! Did you mention that ____ chose you as her maid of honor? Her and Dave both agreed to have one person of honor on each side. The others would sit in the front row.

    You asked the author why she did this, but she only replied with a cackle and smacked you upside the head. You rubbed your head and looked in the mirror to fix your hair. "Hey ____? Why is the author so weeeeeeeeird?!" She shrugged. "I don't really know anymore." Looking yourself over, you nodded an approval. You were wearing a simple blue dress made of satin that was edged with silver thread. Your hair had also been put up in a bun around your horns, but two  curled clumps were hanging on either side of your face.

    As usual you had on your normal blue make up. You even filed your fangs extra sharp for this occasion. You grinned into the mirror and turned back to ____. "Ready to get maaaaaaaarried ____?" She nodded and looked you in the eye.

"Ready as i'll ever be!"

You are now Dave Strider.

    You tapped your foot nervously and looked at the crowd. You shades were tucked into your shirt pocket. You locked down at your tux and smiled lightly to yourself. It was and EXTREMELY dark red, almost brown, and had little golden crows lining the edges. Man you had no idea why you like these brainless feathery assholes. But you did.

    There wasn't much to say about your outfit really. Many people kept starring at your eyes and the empty space below your leg. You had a specially made crutch tucked under your left arm. It was decorated to the theme of the wedding. You smirked looking around. You both had agreed that a white wedding with doves and shit would be stupid. So you went with the Gothic theme.

    You looked to your right to see Karkat scowling at you. You smirked at him. You gave you a smile smile to show he was faking the look. Karkat was wearing a suit similar to yours, minus the crows, plus crabs. Beside the short troll was a little alter dedicated to John. You wanted something to say that you still missed the guy. There were so many flowers, and you are pretty sure you see some blue lipstick in the corner of the picture.

    You looked around and noticed all the people there. Terezi, Rose, Jade, Bro, ____'s Mom, John's dad, Kanaya, Sollux, Jake, Roxy, Dirk, and Jane were all in the front rows. Behind them was all the dancestors, ancestors, and the other trolls not mentioned. A few of ____'s friends were also up front.

    You looked around at the decor again. Over the windows were large, silk, dark grey, curtains. All of the chairs were in style of the Renaissance. In different patterns all around the room where purple, white, and died black roses. The buffet tables were covered in cute little treats and snacks. Fakes crows littered the room as well as some spiders. The walkway was lined with a removable dark purple carpet. Candles flickered all over the room as the main source of light.

    Everyone was dressed to the occasion as well. The Maryam family had dressed up as vampires. And Porrim even got Kankri to play along somehow. You chuckled to yourself thinking of him and Porrim locked in a room for hours as she dressed him up. You had to stop yourself from laughing too hard.

    A person in a white tux suddenly burst through the door and hurried up to Jane. She nodded and scurried over to the piano with Dirk. She gave him a kiss and told him to do something. He got up and walked out of the room.

I will now give you the amazing privilege to see through my eyes.

You are now the author.

    You watched as Dirk hurried into the back room. After closing the door behind him, Dirk turned left down a hallway and came into a room. Inside, Vriska was helping Lil Seb with his bow and basket. You wondered to yourself why you let him be the flower bot. Watching your creations take place was AWESOME.

Plus you can hit them! Your face went dark with a menacing smile as you slowly lifted a pan in warning.

    You looked back down to see Dirk reconfiguring Lil Seb. He was making sure that this goes right. Because if it didn't Dave would maul him alive; even if he did have only one leg. Afterwards, Dirk went over and helped Vriska put a mini tux on her puggle Jack. Around his neck she fastened a little pillow. On the pillow, Vriska secured two rings. They were both silver, but the smaller one had three opals on it. Two were smaller and on each side.

    Vriska looked over at Dirk. "Striiiiiiiider! I think its time to start~!" He nodded and repositioned his shades. "Okay. Lil Seb's all ready and shit. Is Jack?" She flipped her hair dramatically. "Or coooooooourse he is, silly billy~!" Vriska then picked up Jack and walked out of the room with Lil Seb and Dirk in tow.

    You zoomed away from them on your screen and went to look at ____. She was Standing next to her mother, who should i daresay, was fixing little things here and there. "Mom I'm fine! It looks great please stop worrying!" Her mother smiled sadly. "I just don't want to see my baby girl go! ohhhhhhhh~!" Her mother scooped her up in a hug as Vriska Came into the room and Dirk went back inside the chapel after giving ____ a curt nod.

You are now yourself.

    The sound of piano music was heard. Vriska smiled at her moirail. "Its time ____." You nodded and straightened yourself out again, and took your mother's arm. Vriska opened the door and Lil Seb marched out and threw flowers everywhere. You chuckled when you saw Dirk curse himself out as Dave gave him this Look.

    Vriska whistled and Jack strutted out onto the aisle, never faltering. The dog went up and sat next to the pastor obediently. DAMN, that dog was trained! Then Vriska made her way out with a small bouquet of purple roses. You saw her glance sadly at the alter where John's picture stood.

"Its your time to shine." Your mother whispered. You began your trek down the aisle. You and Dave met eyes and you couldn't help but smile. He looked amazing. You didn't care that his leg was gone, all you cared is that he was there. Before you knew it, you were standing next to Dave Strider. You glanced behind you and saw Vriska smiling at you. Karkat had even broken his scowl to smile as he saw his best friend get married.

    The pastor cleared his throat as he opened a vary large bible. Dave reached over and lifted the veil from you face. He looked like he wanted to kiss you right this second. You grabbed his unoccupied hand as the ceremony began.

"Today, we join in marriage this man, David Elizabeth Strider, and this woman, (full name)." You sort of turned out of it for awhile. After a few minutes, you felt uneasy for some reason. You began to listen again.

"If Any object, please speak now or forever hold your peace." He waited a second, when all of a sudden the screeching of tires was heard. All looked confused as they starred at the door. A slam was heard and then quick footsteps. Then the door slammed open.

"DAVE! Oh my god im so sorry i'm late!" Vriska literally jumped off the stage and ran crying into the the arms of the one and only John Egbert. He was wearing a blue tux. And you were surprised. You looked over at Dave. He wasn't faring so well either. John's dad looked like he was forcing himself to stay seated.

    The whole room was filled with commotion as John and Vriska walked up to the stage. Vriska looked glued to his side. She was crying tears of joy, but her makeup was still intact. "Hey Dave!" John said as he took place next to Karkat. "What happened to your leg?" Thats when you noticed it. John still had both of his arms.

"John........." Dave whispered. He was crying now. "Your alive. How are you-" He was cut off by me myself and i the author zapping into the room. "Because Of me! I thought that you'd want your best friend at your wedding." I smirked. "And the rest of your life." You looked between the author and John. You smiled. "You little shit!"

    I crossed my arms and gave you a smug look. "You're welcome. Now finish this wedding so i can see what happens next." I then zapped myself out of the room.

    After a lot of commotion and explaining, the wedding was starting back up. Vriska was back in place behind you, and Karkat gladly gave John his place as man of honor beside Dave.  The wedding proceeded.

    You were getting jittery with excitement as the vows came closer. You and Dave agreed it would be too stressful to write them, so you just went with the original ones. "......And now David has prepared his own vows." Your head perked up as you heard that. You looked at Dave with annoyance, and love, and amusement. He only gulped as he pulled out a piece of crumpled paper.

As you looked closer, you noticed it was a napkin. And it had food on it.

How classy, Dave.

    He cleared his throat and began. "____, remember on my 17th birthday, when you found my shades? Well i remember that you told me god did this to me for a reason." He gestured to his stub of a left leg. "You told me it was so i can learn to appreciate what i have. But after these 9 years with you, I think otherwise. I think the big man big this so you would come into my suck ass shitty life. And you know how when I said that i would never say something so cheesy again? Well i lied." You giggled at him through your tears of happiness.

"____ ____, this sounds so stupid but your are the light in my world. If it weren't for you, id probably be either dead, or a fat ass still living with Bro in the city." There was a chuckle from the audience. "I want to be there for you and protect you to the extent that i can with one leg. Damn this sounds like one of Karkats movies, but i want to have kids with you, i want to grow old with you. And this is getting long by now but im almost done."

    Over Dave's shoulder, you could see John crying tears of joy as his best friend read his vows to the girl he loved. "You were the absolute first to see the color of my eyes from the start. You were the first to see me show emotion from the start. And it's felt pretty fucking good if i do say so myself. So ____, i love you very fucking much. And i want to spend the rest of my shitty ass life with you." He then put the napkin back in his pocket.

    Your face was beginning to hurt from the smiles. "(full name), do you take David Elizabeth Strider to be your lawfully wedded husband?" You nodded your head rapidly. "Yes, I do!" "And David Elizabeth Strider, do you take (full name) to be your lawfully wedded wife?" Dave was smiling. "I totally fucking do." The pastor then reached down and took the rings off of the pillow. He handed Dave's to you, and yours to Dave.

    Dave took your hand and pulled the engagement ring off your finger, placing the wedding ring it its place. The pastor took the ring and set it aside. You took Dave's hand in yours and slipped the ring on his finger. "I now announce you husband and wife." He turned to Dave and smiled. "You may kiss the bride."

    And with that passionate kiss, you started your new life as ____ Strider. You were just too happy to be married to Dave. And you knew that with John back, he'd be a much happier person.
