Ellie slumped against Lori for a moment as she found her footing again. She giggled furiously and blushed. "I can't believe you did that!" she laughed, hugging the pirate captain tightly.

“I'm just so happy.” Lori laughed, returning the hug and pressing another kiss against her cheek. “I finally understand why people say a wedding is the happiest day of their life.”

Ellie grinned like a madwoman and closed her eyes, savoring the feel of Lori’s body pulled close against hers. “Me too,” she said, agreeing with both of Lori’s statements at the same time.

Lori sighed and held Ellie close. “I don't think I’m going to let you go all day,” she admitted with a giggle.

“I’m fine with that arrangement,” Ellie purred in reply, nuzzling her nose into her partner’s soft cheek.

Lori chuckled and kissed Ellie again. “I love you.” she smiled.

Ellie returned the kiss eagerly. She kissed for a lingering moment before finally breaking away to reply. "I love you too, my darling wife."

Lori’s heart soared at those words. “My wife.” she chuckled. “I almost can't believe it. We’re actually married.”

“Believe it, Cap’t.” Jax interrupted softly. “But as sweet as watching t’e pair of ye is, I t’ink it’s time ta move on ta t’e celebration, don’t ye?” he asked with a kind laugh.

“Oh, Jax. Let them be.” Charlie scolded. “We have all day to celebrate. And I’m sure it will continue through the night.” she pointed out.

Ellie couldn't shake her smile. "I know. We're married, my love." She listened to the crewmates talking, vaguely aware of what they were saying. Her eyes never left Lori's.

Lori, however, did hear what her crewmates had said and knew she was blushing. Though Ellie’s words were assuring, enabling the pirate to calm down before peppering her wife's face with kisses.

Ellie giggled and squeezed her eyes shut. She loved when Lorelei covered her face with little kisses, and she squealed happily. "Loriiiiiiii!"

Lori chuckled at the reaction before placing one last kiss to Ellie’s lips. She was still grinning when she finally pulled away. “What was that, my love?” she asked coyly. “Are you ready to celebrate?”

Ellie kissed her back, whining softly as Lori pulled away sooner than the princess thought she would. But she quickly was smiling again at Lori's words. "Yes, my darling. Of course, I am."

Lori nodded and turned towards the crew, keeping one arm around Ellie’s waist. “You heard her, crew!” she called out. “Get out the rum and any wine if we still have some!”

“Aye, Captain.” Marc nodded, taking off to do just that as Drake started playing something more upbeat and easy to dance to.

“Tommy and I can get something real good ready for tonight.” Charlie smiled at the couple.

Ellie grinned as everyone whizzed around them to prepare for the celebration. She grinned widely at Charlie before noting the upbeat tune of Drake's song. "Lori! Let's dance!" she exclaimed, pulling her wife into a more open space and spinning around. Her dress flared out, revealing her fine calves and pale ankles.

Charlie smiled back before calling Tommy to join her in the galley.

Lori whooped in surprise as she let her wife spin her around, dancing happily. Though she had to be a little more careful when she noticed Ellie’s bare feet since she was wearing her boots.

Ellie twirled and spun and leaped and dipped. She reached for Lori’s hand with a wide smile. “Come on, Lori!” she enthused.

Lori held Ellie’s hand, matching her smile, and held on tight as she danced with her beloved princess.

Ellie closed her eyes and spun again, keeping a hold on Lori’s hand. Stars, she’d never been this happy before.

Lori laughed, grabbing her hat with her free hand as they twirled, danced, and lept to Drake’s music. When Ellie closed her eyes, Lori took off her captain’s hat and put it on her wife's head.

Ellie's eyes flew open at the sudden addition of the hat, but she grinned and pressed a hand to it to keep it from flying off of her head as she twirled around. "Captain Ellie!" she declared before bursting into a fit of giggles.

Lori laughed happily at the cry and nodded. “Captain of my heart!” she called back.

Marc raised a brow at the scene as he came back on deck, bottles of rum for everyone in his hands. “Sounds like you two are already drunk.”

Ellie doubled over in a fit of laughter. When she straightened up again, her face was tinged pink with joy, and her smile was so wide it made her cheeks hurt. "Drunk on love," she cooed, reaching for her bottle of rum and sipping on it immediately.

Marcus was surprised by how easily Ellie seemed to be taking to her rum but just continued to pass out the other bottles.

“I’ll drink to that!” Lori cheered, raising her rum in a toast before taking a good sip.

Ellie winced as the alcohol caught up to her and burned her throat, but it wasn't the first time she'd had it. It had just been a while. But her smile quickly came back as she heard Lori's words. "To being drunk on love!" she cried out, lifting her bottle ceremoniously into the air.
