A young Royal couple: love at first sight - Chapter 28:XXVlll
I gently knock on the door once I arrived to his house. Waiting for a few minutes, Andrew opens the door.
With a warm smile, he greets me. “Why, good morning.”
“Good morning, Andrew! How does it feel not to have to go to class today due to the shutdown?” I asked, returning the warm smile.
“Oh, it feels great! But weird at the same time. I litteraly forgot about it, so I woke up extra early today. I could have slept in.”
“Hehe! Someone is too use to it!”
“Heh, totally. Anyways, get in.” Andrew moves aside.
“Suuuure.” I said as I entered his house.
As Andrew closes the door, I go to the living room and sit on the couch. Shortly after, he joins me.
“So, what’s up?” He asked.
Smiling small, I ask. “Would you like to be a father one day?”
“If it means with you, hell yes!” He said honestly.
“Okay, what if I told you “I’m pregnant.” Would you believe me?”
“Well, it depends….why?”
“Because… I am pregnant, Andrew.”
“….what?!”
Noding small, I carefully reply. “Yes. I’m pregnant. I found out yesterday.”
At first, Andrew looked like he didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. Seeing him in such state started making me feel nervous. What if it was too soon for this to happen? What if…he would want to get seperated?! What if–
Andrew suddenly pulls me into his embrace, interrupting my thoughts. “You have no idea how happy i am!”
Widening my eyes slightly, I hug back. “So… you aren’t mad?…”
Andrew looks at me weirdly, “Mad? Why would I be mad?”
“Maybe because it would have been too soon…?”
“Don’t speak such nonsense. This isn’t ‘too soon.’ It’s actually perfect timing.”
“Why you say that?”
“Well because– Actaully, you know I love you deeply right?”
“Yes.”
“You know I’d do anything for you, even if it means my life right?”
“You never told me that…”
“Did i need to?”
“No, I can see it through your actions.”
“You feel the same way, right?”
“Of course!”
“Well then…” Andrew stands up and kneels down on one knee in front me and takes out a ring. “Sasuko, will you marry me?”
I sat there stunned for a second. I wasn’t expecting this at all!!
Tearing up, I node happily. “Yes!!”
Smiling brightly, Andrew places the ring on my finger and hugs me tightly. Crying tears of joy, I hug him back as tightly.
“Watashi wa anata o totemo aishiteimasu, Sasuko.”*
“Watashi mo anata o aishiteimasu, Andoryū.”**
–few hours later–
After spending some quality time together, we went to the park where Ash and Atsushi were at. Walking up to the lake, I purposely hug Ash from behind.
Ash gets slightly startled but instantly relaxes when she saw me. “Oh! Hey sissy! And brother in law!!”
“I’m guessing you received the good news?” Atsushi asked Andrew.
“Heh, yes i did.” He answered.
Letting go of Ash, I give them both a warm smile. Unexpectedly, Ash grabs my hand and gasps slightly.
“Wait…are you two?!!” She exclaimed.
“Barely noticed?” I asked.
“Yeeeeeeee!!!!! We are going to have a brother in law!!!” Ash and Atsushi said.
“The next step is to meet your parents.” Andrew said.
“You’ll have the opportunity within two days.” I said.
“In that case, we should start packing up for tomorrow!” Ash said.
“That’s right. So! Let’s go home and get started!”
