Maka shook her head. "I appreciate that, but you have Hitomi's wedding tomorrow. And I know you want to go to that. You're the 'maid of honor', too," she said, pecking Yosuke on the lips. "I can handle watching them by myself for a day. You go and have fun. I know that wedding means a lot to you."

Hitomi giggled. "Thanks. I should be fine though," she said. "I've done worse than this before. Besides, it might be a good thing. This'll keep us from messing around too much before tomorrow." She winked at him playfully. "We should save some energy for tomorrow night, right? So we celebrate being newly weds."
