Chapter Text
You knew your home life was abnormal. But you didn't realize just how abnormal it was. You get to pick your own clothes. Moon bought you a cell phone. For the first time in more than ten years, you get a haircut! It's now the perfect length for you. You even get some clothes you like that aren't girly! Not that you hated your old clothes. You just wanted some band t-shirts and the like.
It took the better part of a month to finally adjust to your new life. You still had your hiccups but Moon helped you work through every single one. You and Moon had already started wedding planning. You had figured out your wedding colors. Not much but it's a start. Eclipse decided to invite your parents to dinner as a sort of olive branch. Eclipse, being the cheeky bastard he is, decides burgers and fries are the perfect dishes to serve.
Eclipse picked all the best ingredients to make the most delicious burgers. It actually has you excited. It's agreed that Moon will pretend to be a man for your safety. Moon does, however, thoroughly enjoy dressing you up. It's nice having Moon leaning in close to apply makeup to your face. She dresses you in a calf-length flowy dress. It's dark blue with yellow moons on the skirt. Moon finds it thrilling having you in something of hers. It's like her name is written all over you.
You have gotten so used to seeing Moon with breasts that seeing her without is weird. Now that you have spent more time together you can see the discomfort and disappointment she feels at not having them on. It also takes quite a while for Sun to remove them and put them back on. He is teaching you how to do it. You really want to surprise Moon by putting her breasts on before your wedding. You want it to be a special moment for the two of you. It will be the last time she has to pretend to be a man.
A knock at the door draws you from your thoughts "Must be my parents."
Moon stands up straight and sets down the lipstick "You look stunning."
You blush as Moon helps you stand up "Thank you. You look good too."
Moon links arms with you and leads you downstairs. Your father and mother stand in the entryway. Eclipse holds the door open for them. Your father looks worried for some reason. Moon stands tall beside you masking her discomfort with years of practice. Your mother looks relieved at the sight of you.
She holds her arms open for you "Look at you! You look so grown up!" She holds you tightly "OOO I miss you so much!"
You hug her back "Hello Mother."
Your father spins you around by the shoulders "How are you pumpkin? Are they treating you well?"
You smile softly "They treat me very well. Moon is a very respectable person and I'm looking forward to our upcoming wedding."
Your Mother looks a little hurt "You've started wedding planning without me?"
You glance over at her "Considering the marriage is between Moon and I? Yes, yes I have. I assume you got to plan your own wedding?"
Your mom nods "Of course. It was my wedding."
You turn to face her "Then why would you assume I wouldn't want the same thing for myself?"
She shrinks in on herself slightly "I'm your mother. I know what's best for you."
You purse your lips biting back all the things you could say right now "No, you don't. Not anymore."
Eclipse points to the dining room "Dinner is ready if you would follow me. I think we have much to discuss with the happy couple."
The dining room table has a large plate with a metal cover over it. Your parents look excited to see what's for dinner. Eclipse almost has a manic glee as he reveals the burgers. Your mother's face drops in disgust.
Your father points to the burgers "Burgers?"
Moon takes two burgers putting one on your plate "Yes. We love burgers."
You plate Moon and yourself some fries "These are hecking good burgers! Sun is teaching me how to make them!"
Sun beams with pride "Thank you, Yin! I love cooking with you."
Your mother pokes the burger "It looks good."
You take a big bite of food with a happy hum. Moon presses her leg against yours under the table. Eclipse and Sun both took a bite.
Moon swallows her bite "Aren't you hungry?"
Your father took a bite "MMM! It has been forever since I've had a burger!"
Your mother makes a disgusted face before taking a bite of the burger. Her discomfort is unmistakable. You hide your satisfied grin with a sip of your drink. Eclipse makes no effort to hide the smug look on his face.
Your mother sets the burger down "So, what plans have you made for the wedding so far?"
Moon sets her burger down "Our wedding colors are dark green and silver."
"Oh. Whatever makes you happy." Mother says.
Your father smiles "We are willing to put thirty thousand toward your wedding."
Moon smiles "Thank you, but no thank you. What kind of husband would I be if I didn't provide for my future wife? The ceremony will be small."
You nod "We don't want a big to-do."
Your mother takes a sip of her drink "So around 160 guests then."
You frown "No, closer to 70 at most."
Eclipse smiles "I look forward to joining our families. I feel we will all prosper from this union. Your daughter is a delight to be around." He sips his drink eyeing your parents over the rim of his glass "She's very smart."
Your father beams "We raised her well!"
Sun leans on his elbow "She knows a lot about how to run a business."
Your father looks a little uncomfortable "She did go through a lot of training."
Your mother smiles warily "It's late dear. We really should be heading to the hotel." She looks over at you "I'd hate for us to be late for the bridal appointment."
You walk your parents to the door "It was nice seeing you again. I look forward to tomorrow."
Your mother waves over her shoulder "See you tomorrow!"
You close the door and lean on it "That went better than expected. I thought for sure my mother was going to storm off at the sight of burgers."
Moon walks up to you kissing your forehead "You did well."
Sun huffs "Your mother is really controlling!"
You lean into Moon 'I can tell she's mad she doesn't have control."
Moon gently pulls you to the dining room "Let's clean up."
The four of you clean up the mess from dinner while chatting. Afterward you and Moon head upstairs to watch a movie together falling asleep in each other's arms. At about two in the morning, a gasp wakes you up. You rub your eyes and sit up in bed. Moon's eyes shine bright in alarm.
You gently touch her arm "Are you ok?"
Moon blinks the light out of her eyes "Nightmare."
You wrap your arms around her "Wanna talk about it?"
Moon lays the two of you back down wrapping herself around you "Your parents took you and hid you from me. I couldn't find you. It was like you never existed in the first place."
You kiss her neck "Well I'm here now." You nibble her neck gently "I'm with you forever."
Moon moans softly "Moonlight."
You tuck your head under her chin "Sleep. I don't want to wake up the house."
Moon blushes "Goodnight."
"Goodnight." You mumble sleepily.
