"WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT YOU AND HENRY WERE ATTACKED IN LONDON?!" cried out Juliana in horror as she examined Christina's face, checking her for any bruises or wounds. Christina had just finished telling her sister what happened as she was trying to calm down the Nightingale sister who was happily married to Harriet Jekyll.

"Don't try to calm me down, Christina! You could've DIED that night! you were only lucky that Helsing didn't try to shoot you!" Juliana added as she was scolding her sister and her fiance for doing a stunt like that. She then spotted the engagement ring around her neck as she stopped scolding her sister. "Christina.. Are you and Henry...?" Christina could only give her a smile, confirming Juliana's thoughts as she was hugged. "MY ELDER SISTER IS ENGAGED!" as Christina laughed.

It was quite amusing to see the middle sister of the Nightingale family turn from scolding to shocked yet happy to see her sister was to be wed. "So, when are you both setting up the wedding?" she asked Henry as he smiled at her sister. "We are still waiting for the search for us to die down a little bit before we decide to set a date for our wedding. In the meantime, your sister and i will hide our engagement like Christine and Raoul once did." Juliana nodded, showing she understood completely.

"But, it will be funny to see people's faces when they realize that the half-Swedish songbird is to be wed to a doctor~" Roseanne said in her sing-song tone of voice as Edward laughed, loving how his future bride would be a little sassy because that was one of the traits he loved about his grey-eyed songstress. When they got the engagement ring for their beloved songbirds, they knew it had to have their eye colors; Grey for Roseanne and pure blue for Christina. "I couldn't agree more, love." Edward told Roseanne as she blushed like a shy schoolgirl.

Edward always enjoyed making his pretty rose flustered as she leaned into his embrace through the mirror they both shared with each other. He would be lying if he hadn't said he wanted to keep his rose near him for the rest of forever.. But, he knew that one day, Helsing would find them and finish the job that was given to him by the Vatican. and Edward Hyde would never go down without a fight! "So.. Do you have any ideas for your dress, Christina?" Christina shook her head as Juliana sighed softly.

"Alright, we'll go dress shopping later. Right now, we need to wait out the search. If anyone asks me where my sister and her lover are, i shall not say anything." Juliana told her sister as she nodded, taking Henry's hand and going upstairs to their assigned room. Fortuantely, Harriet understood the situation and allowed them to hide in their house until things settled down a bit and the search died down. As Christina was walking across the hall with Henry at her heels. To him and Edward, their girls were angels among humans. they looked the same but their eyes different eye colors and their personalities different also. But, they loved them and they loved their songbirds, regardless of that.

Christina's long honey-hued curls, fair skin and pure blues belonged to a princess while the silver-hued eyes of Roseanne belonged to a moon angel. As the women walked and talked about the wedding plans, the topic of an engagement party came up. Henry's fiance's face furrowed in thinking, the same face she made when she was thinking about a new song to sing for her fans back in London. He knew that look very well before Roseanne reached towards her from the mirror and placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Do not worry about that, Chris. i know you are smart and sweet underneath your beautiful exterior, But.. I know how you think. Besides, knowing my Eddy.. he would probably want to come out during the announcement of you and Henry to be wed and i am sure you do not want that." Christina would admit, Roseanne had some good points about that and she was right about that fact of Edward. He would want to come out during the announcement of the engagement of her and Henry, just to prove he is with Roseanne as well.

Later that day, Christine and Juliana were talking in the tearoom as Christina was debating to have a few flowers in the corners of the chapel or not since Juliana's wedding had many beautiful flowers before her sister spoke up. "How about floral arrangements behind the guests' chairs, sister? it could save you the trouble of having leftover petals and if your guests want to take the flowers home, they can just take some." Christina looked down at the murky depths of her white teacup with silver roses and golden vines, sipping at it lightly before responding.

"That would be a good idea, Juliana.. I was thinking of pure red roses and violets or white lilies with blue irises. which do you prefer?"

"how about red roses and blue irises?"

"oh, so a mix of those two?"

She watched as her sister nodded her head yes and Christina wrote that down. that was one thing done. only a few more left to-go. It was times like this she was glad to have a sister who knew about this sort of thing and would give her advice about her wedding plans, which she didn't mind as she and Juliana continued to talk about her wedding and give her a few more ideas. Christina asked questions and Juliana answered them all, giving her pieces of advice for her to take.

as they continued to talk, They got a bit off-topic as Christina laughed at a story Juliana was telling her. "Eleanor did that?! what in the world was going on in your wife's head that time?"

"Overprotectiveness, sister."

Christina and Juliana hoped for these moments to last forever...
