Honeymoon During a Funny Moon

(Strange that I held onto this topic idea for about 6 months, yet never got to write or work on it.)


I'm going to select a few baby names from this website for my story characters.

Rowan is a momma's boy, since his father, Jasper, left the family when he was 7 months old, due to divorce. He never heard from or saw his father again until his father made a surprise visit to the wedding. 


Rowan's mother, Hazel, insisted on doing all the makeup & hair for the bride & all of the bridesmaids, but his wife, Luna (How fitting!) has a personal pet peeve. She doesn't like or trust anyone doing her hair & makeup, except for herself. Hazel thought that Luna had something against her, but it was just Luna's issue. 


"Aww... come on, Luna! You're gonna love it. I promise you!", said Hazel. 


Rowan backed her up & said, "You gotta trust my mom. She does the BEST hair. She's not called a professional for nothing!"


So, Luna gave in. Hazel blindfolded Luna while doing her hair, & Luna was ranting & feeling nervous the entire time. The bridesmaids were gossiping & giggling. When Hazel took the blindfold off, Luna nearly lost her mind (in a good way). Luna was in love with her makeup, wedding dress & hairstyle. 


Rowan & Luna finally got married, & then at the reception, it unexpectedly rained halfway through, & everyone had to end it early, since both the wedding & the reception were outside. 


Rowan & Luna are simplistic, modest people. They didn't care for a fancy wedding, & neither do they care for an expensive, lavish honeymoon now. They celebrated their honeymoon in their backyard. That's right! Their backyard. 


During 1 of their romantic honeymoon nights, they slept outside in their heavy duty hammock & noticed a lunar eclipse, plus they could've SWORN that they kept hearing a wolf howling all night long! They didn't realize that nature was right in their backyard. Sounds of crickets, birds, frogs, you name it. 


The next morning, they were startled out of their sleep & awakened to a big black bear trying to make it's way to the gate. They were forced to prematurely end their honeymoon & call animal control. 


4 months after the ordeal, Luna found out that she was expecting a little boy. Rowan named him Jasper, after his father once he was born. A healthy baby boy. Baby Jasper grew up to have a career in rescuing & caring for animals. 


THE END
