Erich smiles wider with each word Ada speaks. It was a very Ada thing to say. Hers was a subtle cuteness that could sneak up and cut your throat before you knew what happened. Growing up,Erich loved the cramps,he still loved them. But one of the things he loved most was how perfect it seemed between ivy and lux. That is how be wanted love to be. While he doubted he and Ada would form a band together,he was confident they could. He could spend every waking moment with her and never "want his space.". She was his best friend,to the point he sometimes would sing the golden girls theme to her. " i understand completely. The first one was just for us,but we need to share our happiness. This proper wedding could be the catalyst for world peace....of at the very least ,an opportunity to have drinks and eats with our friends. What about in Bonn,so your dad can attend? We can stay for awhile,so nothing is rushed. I could get randy and Jane to fly out. There are plenty of babies to go around,it could be fun."

Erich grins at the thought of their families finally being together. Randy had never asked about ada's family,but surely was curious. He would have no problem coming out. Jane may not,she didn't like Erich. Ada might be enough to entice her to come. Who didn't like ada? " I'd love Bonn too. I still think we could have walked right by each other years ago." Erich was convinced that since she was from Bonn,and that's where his band really took off..it was only natural they could have been in the same building at least once. He giggles when she elbows him. "It'll be as fake as that friend of Erica's lips. But I think it will be just as meaningful as the real one. We going fancy? Or something weird like Klingon language camp?" Erich asks,patting ada's leg.

A lot of times Erich forgot that Ada was quite a few years his junior. They shared enough interests that it never became an issue. He gives Ada's leg a little squeeze and laughs. "How illegal? Because in comparison,you may not have been the most illegal thing on the bus. We um....were creative with funding. " erich grins. Having a birth father in the police force had taught Erich effective trafficking. Which didnt work as planned. Drug addicts trying to keep product in stock was not a good idea. He was rather surprised with Ada wanting a traditional wedding. " sure,potato. Whatever you want. Though it will be hard not to be racy with you in a dress. Rowrz." Erich says while making a paw motion. He was sure Ada would be absolutely stunning in a fancy wedding dress. " sounds like a good idea. A night of being snappily dressed,all of friends snappy dressed...your father finally seeing me in my non scummy form..."

" I'm a man of mystery. Nobody really knows. Some say i was born from a romp between Richard Simmons and Phyllis diller during the dick caveat show...or I am actually 32. One foot in the fucking grave or what?" Erich shrugs. He hated being as old as he was. He could remember his parents at this age and they were certainly old. Sometimes it was best not to think about things,he scoots slightly away from ada. She was probably waaaay underage when he was in Bonn. Erich looks at ada blankly and says, " yes,Ada. I was running prostitutes. The most notorious pimp in western Europe.." he says flatly before giggling. The idea was pretty funny when be pictured himself in full 70's pimp garb." Nah, we would smuggle a bit of cocaine. ..a lot. Karoliena's bass worked great for it.' He says with nostalgia,it was always a life of danger back then. He smiles along with Ada. He loved seeing her happy about the prospect of things. He laughs and shakes his head before running his hands through his hair. " yeah,I remember fear. Fear he was going to kill ne for taking his little girl away. Or that he alreAdy knew who I was."

erich ruffles ada's hair. "oh,i bet you were adorable at 11 or 12. a little bundle of red hair,bouncing along and gnawing on a bratwurst." he grins as he realizes that he has no idea what ada's natural hair color is. he met her with red hair,so he assumed it was naturally red. he was certain however,that she was not naturally blonde. he had seen her dye it with his own eyes.it was funny to think he was probably snorting lines off some woman named ingrid's back while his future wife was playing dolls. " i guess i need to start worrying about being traded in for a younger model,my old ass isnt going to be able to keep up with you. "he laughs and squeezes her tightly. "i did that?!" erich says,shaking his head in amazement. " im surprised you didnt kick me in the ass then and there! i invited karoliena for back up. she is scary and i was hoping if your dad scared me too much,i could get karoliena to pounce." he says with a grin, before suddenly coming to a realization. " we need to make sure we dont have our new wedding when karoliena is having hers. i think she and cassie would kill us if we didnt appear."

erich looks down at ada and kisses her on the forehead. "only your hair dresser knows for sure." he says,before putting a finger to his lips.it would be odd to see ada with black hair,she'd still be beautiful. but he was pretty attached to the blonde look. he honestly assumed she dyed parts black for some reason. contrast and compare,right? " i will continue to spread the rumor you are indeed a red head. i would know,right? carpet matching curtains is soooo drab." he adds with a dirty laugh.it was rare he was crude with ada,but he couldnt resist. " ill be what? 50 something when you are my age now? i think as long as i have you to....inspire? i should have no problem keeping up with you." he gives a little chuckle and pinches her butt lightly.he closes his eyes and savors the kiss from ada.it was cliche,but she was everything to him. "if you did trade me in? i would boo hoo cry." he says rather seriously,but makes it seem like a throwaway comment. erich remembers the hell that was the wedding day of their friends. everyone hated everyone that day.in a very rare occurrence,he had went against erica when she had kicked nichole off their ship. he didnt understand the dynamics of erica and nichole,but knew better than to allow erica to kick her friend off the ship. "we may be able to do ours before. i honestly do not think they have set a date. i cant say i have even spoken to karoliena in weeks." he says with a little shrug. everyone else was back on the ship,but karoliena had made her break from the group and seemingly moved on.

Erich lets out a tiny almost imperceptible sigh of relief. He did worry about Ada finding someone more.....anything than him. " I meant it too." Erich says very softly and looks to Ada. " more than I've meant anything. I always want you. When we are old and grey,having strip bingo and wheelchair races....I'll still be crazy about you." Erich holds both of ada's hands after the kiss and smiles at her. It was special,it was intense and short....much like Ada. " it's so funny to see Karoliena with cassie...she is like a little kid. So we got a place,we got a style...I guess colors are next? " he asks,slightly out of his element. He was the wedding planner with jlo, but it didn't seem go over actual planning.

Erich puts his arm around Ada and rests his chin on top of her head. He smiles down at the black roots,that he previously had assumed weren't natural. This was how Erich always assumed things should be between people in love. It felt like it looked on tv. " you bring out the best in me....and everyone really. I can't wait till marlen is doing people stuff and not baby stuff. See just how much like you she is." He says proudly. He made no mystery of how he thought Ada was end all of human evolution. Erich laughs and shakes his head. "Trust me,potato. Ykh do not want my favorite color in the wedding. What about you? I have no idea what your favorite color is. I always assumed red. Your seem like a red to me."

Erich touches ada's nose with his. "It would be such a shame to have her turn out uniquely beautiful like her mom. God forbid." He says,giving Ada a little nudge. He knew she was a little conscious of her nose. He loved it and wouldn't have it any other way. She'd look silly with a nose job.like Jennifer grey. " I think if she does inherit.....traits,we will be there for her. I'm sure out of the 5 other kids here,at least one will be there for her too." Erich says with a little shrug. He knew what Ada was referring to,and liked to think love was how people could get through it. " i was right!?" He says,very surprised. " I guessed because we bought you a red car,and red is passionate...and youre naturally a red head..." he trails off with a giggle. He gives Ada a nod with her color suggestions. " the colors are perfect! And you should be glad I didn't name my favorite color......its seafoam green."

Erich raises an eyebrow. If anyone in the world liked seafoam green other than him,it would be Ada. " you really are the perfect woman,Ada." He says,happily. It meant a lot to him,actually. Most people considered the color hideous or outdated.it was bonding on yet another level for them. " yes,we will have the most beautiful wedding ever.red,white,and black....what about the car you arrive in? Vintage rolls? I think we need something classier for you,but a silver cloud seems to be the limit." Erich says with great distaste. In his mind,no car was worthy to haul Ada to her wedding.
