"Mares and gentlecolts, your graduating class of 2004, of the university of Manehattan!" The dean of the previously stated university said, allowing the graduates to stand up and throw their caps in the air. All the students did this, and many cheers were heard. One stallion in particular, had been thrilled to have finally finished his studies at the university. The stallion was named Time Turner, and he looked up and saw his marefriend was flying in the air to find him, and from what he could tell, his crossed eyed gray Pegasus marefriend was tearing up, and then she darted down to her stallionfriend.

"Turner!" She said hugging her stallionfriend. squeezing every bone she had her legs around "I'm so happy for you! I can't believe it's been THIS long since you started coming here!"

Time Turner chuckled and said "Thanks Derpy, I'm glad to!" then returned the death hug with his own hug. After a couple moments of hugging, Time Turner broke the hug and said "Hey, let's go out to dinner tonight, alright?"

"Yes!" Derpy said "Let's go, I wanna put on my fanciest dress!" She said, pulling her stallionfriend to their ride, which confused a lot of ponies on why they chose to ride in a phone booth around Equestria. Once inside, Derpy had to readjust to the bigger interior of the blue box she and her stallionfriend just entered.

"I'll be right back!" Derpy said to Time Turner, heading for her room to get her dress on. Turner thought he'd go put on his own fancy attire, and went to his room to put on his best suit. Once he finally got it on, he looked in the mirror to see how he looked.

He was wearing a black vest, with a white shirt underneath, and a dark brown bow-tie to top it all off. After examining his self in his mirror, Time Turner went back into the main area of what he knew as the 'TARDIS' and waited for Derpy, as he got their transportation ready for travel to the restaurant that he planned for them to go.

After some whizzing and buzzing, and some 'REEEEOoohhh...'-ing going about, the machine started and flew to the restaurant nearby the university campus, and landed nearby on the corner of the street near the restaurant.

It took a while, but Derpy finally came out of her room, and revealed herself to Time Turner, and he was amazed, stunned by his marefriend's appearance.

Derpy wore a blue dress, that covered everything down from her wings back, but allowed room for her wings to still be unfolded from time-to-time. "Hey, whadda you think?" Derpy asked.

Turner had kept gawking at his marefriend like he was still a school-colt in secondary school looking at the prettiest mare in the class. He finally was able to close his jaw, after it dropped several times, and was able to say something, but what came out as a mutter "Y-You.... I just can't.... Lovely...." After this, he extended his right hoof, so to court his marefriend.

Once she finally accepted his hoof, Derpy and Turner left the blue box and went into the restaurant to eat their meal.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The two ponies had finished their meal, and enjoyed their night and meal. "So, Derpy, there's something I've wanted to ask you, something rather important." Turner said.

Derpy began to form tears in her eyes, then said while trying not to cry "You wanna leave me and go to someplace far away!?" succumbing to the worst possible outcome.

Turner looked confused, but felt morally outraged that his marefriend thought he'd leave her to go someplace far away from her. Well, he did actually in a way leave her to go someplace far away when he was accepted in the university, but that was behind him. "What? No, Derpy!" Turner said, trying to calm down the now crying mare, who still thought Turner was leaving her "Derpy, that's not it! It's just-" Turner continued, trying to find the words he was trying to use "Derpy," He began, pulling out a small box "will you marry me, and become my wife?"

Derpy couldn't believe what she had just heard. Was she hearing this correctly, was he really proposing to her? She didn't know, but instead of giving an answer when she could've, she began to cry some more. She cried for a minute, then looked through her watery eyes to see a sad looking Time Turner, then said to her stallionfriend "Of course *hic* I'll *hic* marry you!" as she threw her legs around her fiancé.

After paying the bill, and apologizing for the noise the two made, Turner and Derpy went back inside the blue box they arrived in, and went to Turner's bed room to... Well, you've probably figured out by now, haven't you?

4 months later...

Turner couldn't believe it, he was almost late for his wedding, and he was a lord of time! He was glad to have made it to the alter before his fiancé did, because if he didn't, she would've probably killed the stallion! Soon, after he arrived at the alter, everypony got quiet, and the piano nearby was being played by Turner's brother, Pianissimo. He looked turned around, and the sight before him left him awestruck.

Derpy was wearing a light wedding dress that looked exactly like the dress she wore the night Turner proposed to her, and next to Derpy was Derpy's dad, Heavy Weight. Now, Heavy Weight always scared Turner, cause Heavy Weight looked scary! A buff Pegasus with extremely strong wings, what's not scary about that?! Not to mention the fact that he had always had stubble instead of some, or no facial hair! But, back to Derpy waling up the aisle.

Derpy had walked up the aisle, next to her father. When they arrived, the one marrying Derpy and Time Turner asked "And who gives this mare to be this stallion's wife?"

Heavy Weight replied with "I, Heavy Weight, allow this weakling stallion to love and care for my daughter, or he'll face me!"

"Daddy!" Derpy said "You promised you wouldn't pull that act today!"

"Sorry Derpy" Heavy Weight said, then let go of his daughter, letting her go to her fiancé.

After Derpy stepped up to the alter, the priest had continued with the ceremony as planned. After some really boring talking, to Derpy and Time Turner, the priest finally said "Do you, Time Turner, take Derpy Hooves to be your lawfully wedded wife?"

"I do, forever and always." Time Turner said, holding Derpy's right hoof with his left hoof.

"And do you, Derpy Hooves," The priest continued "take Time Turner to be your lawfully wedded husband?"

"I do," Derpy began, looking into her fiancé's eyes with her crossed eyes "for ever and always!"

The priest smiled, then said "I now pronounce you, husband and wife!" then closed the bible he had with him "You may kiss the bride!"

Time Turner turned to Derpy, and looked deep into her eyes, then kissed his wife, and closed his eyes to embrace the moment as something even more precious to him then getting out of college itself.

Everypony in the crowd roared with glee and cheers of joy, all except for Pianissimo, who silently clapped for his brother. Once everypony clamed down, they newly weds went to cut the cake. "OK, so how do we do this?" Turner said, blushing while not wanting to put the cake cutting knife into his mouth. After getting some assistance, he and Derpy finally cut their cake and had a slice together.

After the cake was cut, everypony had started to either dance or have some food, while the newly weds had danced together, first doing the tango, then started doing some spin dancing, even to the point of break dancing from Time Turner. Eventually, it was time, and Derpy and Time Turner had went to their hired carriage, which would take them to their honeymoon. "OK, everything done before we go?" Turner asked his wife.

"Hmm..." Derpy said "Oh, wait!" She continued, then stuck her head out the carriage and threw her bouquet behind her, not seeing who'd catch it. "OK, now we can go!" Derpy said, as she stuck her head and body back in the carriage.

As the carriage left, tin cans were clanking on the ground as it moved, and the sign on the back said "MARRIED TOAY! JEALOUS MUCH?" As their last wedding joke the two decided to pull on their way out.

"You know," Turner began "I think we'll enjoy Canterlot while we're there. Don't you?"

Derpy hugged her husband, then said to him "Yeah, and when we get there, I've got a surprise for you!" as she booped his nose.
