This takes a couple years after the Kaider wedding. Cresswell is engaged.

Hope ya like it!

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Cade- (ahem) Captain Carswell Thorne and Crescent Moon Darnel are in a sterile hospital room. Earlier that day, Thorne was helping Cress move a table down some stairs when he slipped backwards and broke his foot. Cress had to take a car-she had learned to drive by this point-and drive His Handsomeness to the ER.

"Uhm, no! I will not be in a cast for my wedding." Thorne proclaimed after the doctor told him the results of the x-ray.

"Captain, you broke your foot. I think you have to." Cress, sitting on the side of the bed, brushed his bangs.

"That wouldn't be very fashionable..." Thorne grumbled. There was a knock at the door then an immediate burst of it being opened. It was Cinder.

"Cinder! Oh, what a pleasant surprise." Cress smiled. Cinder stomped toward them in her bulky dress.

"Aye, Rice-head. Aren't you supposed to be running a country?"

"My favorite person is in the hospital. The country can wait." she responded.

"I don't think that's how it works, Cinder." he struggled to sit up but Cress  told him to relax.

"I run the country, so it is." she put her hands on her hips. "You have a wedding in two weeks, you're not supposed to have a cast on your wedding!"

"See Cress?" he turned his head to look at her. "She gets it."

"Iko is going to be furious." Cinder pointed out.

"Let's just... not tell her?" Thorne suggested as he shrugged.

"Tell me what?" Iko popped her head into the door way, her blue braids swaying.

"He broke his foot moving a table." Cinder crossed her arms as she told her. Iko gasped.

"You imbecile!" she ruffled his hair. "You have a wedding!"

"I know, I know!" he smirked at Cress.

"These things just don't go away in a couple days, Thorne. And I think postponing the wedding is out of the question." Cinder explained.

"Why not?" Cress suddenly asked, meekly. "If he can't have a cast at the wedding, why not move the date?"

"Because that'd be too arrogant." Cinder said. "But, it's Thorne. What'd you expect?"

"I think we should move it." Cress stated, serenely. The room was silent. Even the doctors wouldn't dare intervene. Throne scratched his head, Iko stood very still, her fan whirring. Cinder looked at Thorne, her arms crossed. 

"Wha- Cress." He sternly peered at her. "That'd be too selfish of me to move the wedding because of my foot." 

"But this is the moment that we'll remember for the rest of our lives. We don't want pictures of you with a broken foot!"

"Can we have the room?" Throne asked. They left, and it was just them. "Cress..."

She stood by the foot of the bed. "I think we should. What's wrong with it?" 

"I just think..."

"No, I think we should. If it's that important to you." she crossed her arms. Thorne smirked.

"Cress... We're not postponing the wedding. We're keeping it on track. Come here." he reached for her and kissed her on the forehead. "It'll be an amazing day. Just you wait."

*CRESSWELL FAN GIRL INTENSIFIES*

AUGH! I love Cresswell! I got this idea from a dialogue prompt and I just wanted to write. I know it's mainly dialogue but it's Cresswell. (and it's not that great)

God Bless <3

(Let me know if you want me to write their wedding because believe me, I will work hard on it to make it beautiful)
