The big day had approached very quickly. Before they know it, the day had come. They had every little detail worked out. The ceremony would take place in the compound, and the reception in the mess tent. Margaret, who did not want to wear Klinger's wedding dress again to get married, had got in a simple, white, but very fancy dress. It had thin straps, and a low, but not to low neckline, and the end of her dress went down, so it covered her feet. Her bridesmaids had pale yellow dress, with high sashes, and puffy short-sleeves. The men, though, where wearing the dress uniforms.

Margaret woke up on the day of the wedding. She grinned into her pillow, and breathed in. This was the best day of her life. Getting married to the man that was supposed to have a 'Terminal Bachelor' sign on him. Getting married to the man she loved more than life. To her, there was only two downfalls: Her parents would not be there, and she couldn't see Hawkeye until the ceremony. She crawled out of bed and looked at her dress. With some consult with Kilnger, and a trip down to Seoul, she found a perfect dress. She picked a dress over a wedding grown, because this was a new chapter in her life. And she knew the wedding couldn't be the fanciest, what if wounded came in? It was a pain when they came in normally, and with the wedding, and all, it would be a disaster.
She grinned again when she thought about after the reception. They where going to Tokyo for 6 days, and some how, Hawkeye he gotten a huge honeymoon suite for the two of them. He had to have paid for that by himself. She probably nag him about getting a room that big, and how much it was, but it was probably worth it. Oh, well, this marriage would only happen once.
Margaret was disrupted from her thoughts be a knock on her door.
"Major Houlihan, time to get ready!"

Hawkeye groaned as he woke up. He was slightly hung-over, thanks to the night before. He really did not want a bachelor party, but BJ insisted on having a few drinks over at Rosie's. What a mistake that was. From having a few drinks to a few more drinks, then a few ore drinks, and then more drinks, it got kind of insane. Hawkeye didn't want to know what happened there last night.
He got up, and immediately grabbed his head and nearly fell over. He looked outside and saw some of the nurses at Margaret's door, to help her get ready. They herded in quickly, with curlers, and make-up.
Hawkeye decided to go get a shower, to get ready, and to get rid of his hang over.
Shower tent: Hawkeye entered, and was happy when no one was around. He quickly took off his rode, and stepped in the stall. He turned the water on, and felt the rare warmness of the water on his body.
He could not wait for tonight to come. After the wedding, he and Margaret would be going to Tokyo for their honeymoon. They had gotten a large suite in one of the nicest hotels in Tokyo.
When Hawkeye was washing his hair, BJ came in the tent, and looked more hung over then Hawkeye had.
"Morning Beej."
"Stop screaming, Hawk."
"I'm not!" Hawkeye shot back "You're to hung over! Are you going to be okay for the wedding?"
'Yeah, I'll be fine."
"BJ, what was it like on your wedding day?"
"Well, I got very nervous, and throw up in the church's bath room, about a half hour before the ceremony. About half way though, I have to again, and had to hold it down. I was standing, praying that I wouldn't throw up."
"Did you?"
"When we got to the hall, I told Peggy I had to go to the bathroom, and that was the last time."

Margaret looked a full-length mirror. She had to admit, she looked good.
The nurses had curled her hair, and pulled it in to a bun. They had gotten some flowers and made a crown for Margaret. She had a rather large bouquet of flowers, but it brought the look together. She twirled around in a circle, and sighed happily.

Hawkeye was readjusting his captain's bars for the millionth time. He was very nerves. There was only about a half-hour before the wedding. Finally, he would be together, with the women he loved-forever, and ever. He sat down and ran a hand threw his black hair.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*~
"Margaret, honey, time for the big moment" Sherman called. "Coming!" Margaret was now truly excited. She was getting married to Hawkeye-one of the only people who made her happy. She was going to explode with excitement.
"You look gorgeous, Margaret!"
"Oh, thank you colonel! "
Colonel Potter linked his arm around Margaret's it was about to begin-the small Korean flower girl walked down the aisle, then the bride's maids.
The wedding march began, and Margaret and the Colonel walked down the aisle. Both, Hawkeye and Margaret Grinned like crazy when they saw each other.
Finally, Sherman and Margaret made to the end of the aisle. Sherman kissed Margaret on the cheek, and handed her over to Hawkeye.
A/N: I don't feel like typing out the wedding vulvas, due to the fact that I'm lazy butt, so I'm skipping over that.
"I pronounce you husband and wife, you may now kiss the bride "
Those faithful words that Father Mulcahy said bonded them together forever. Hawkeye leaned down and kiss Margaret passionately. When they broke away, every clapped, and got out their rice, tossed over them.

Hawkeye pulled Margaret closer, as the music played around them. He felt so happy, so he didn't know. He'd ask BJ.
"Excited about leavening?"
"Like you wouldn't believe"
"So am I" Hawkeye and Margaret were going to take a late plane to Tokyo, and get there around 3 A.M. There was still some time to have fun in bed.
The song ended, and the food was severed. Everyone went to there seats, and looked at the disgusting food in front of them.
Hawkeye stood and broke the silence.
"You know, I don't think anyone ever expected me and Margaret to be together. It's something no one expect-no one ever thought of it."
"Now, when Margaret and I told each other what we thought of each other, I was ecstatic. I wanted nothing more then to propose to her. And that's what I did, and am now very happy that I did. I really wish I could add more to me speech here, but a lot of you know how it goes- a strict Army, by -the-book Major, and a Captain who hates the Army, met here, and then the Captain Decides to do some thing be one expects, and enlists, and proposes to the Major-all in one night. I think a lot of you are surprised, and confused, but that's how it goes. Now, let dig into are disgusting food and eat!"
Hawkeye sat down and looked over at Margaret, who was crying. Hawkeye pulled her into a hug and rubbed her back.
"Oh, Hawkeye, I'm so happy that where spending a lifetime together."
"So am I Margaret, so am I"
