Chapter 16: Future Plans

You casually wake up,take your time to drink your cup of morning coffee.All while looking at the sun rise from your balcony,thinking....of the future.Who to choose,to become your Wives ?

Heading towards the office to check on the supplies for New Years eve,you spy Roon and Friedrich chatting on the Docks.You go and join them.

"Guten Morgen(Good Morning) Commander,how did you sleep ?" Roon asks,with a smile.
"Good Morning you two.Ah,my sleep ? Could've been better.Listen can i talk to in private,please ?" you ask the two Ship Girls,they,of course,agree.

Together you head to the office and sit down.You begin to shiver little by little.
"Commander,are you feeling okay ? Or does Mommy have to take care of her Child ?" Friedrich asks with smile only a mother could do.
"Yeah,i wanted to ask...do you t-t-two...w-w-want to become my future Wives ?"you ask them,putting all your strength behind your words.

"Commander,that is a very special and important question,but we can see that you really do want us to be your Wives.With all you've said and one for us..." Roon says,together with Friedrich they stand up and hug you tightly.

"That's a big,yes,from me." Roon says,gently stroking your back.
"How can i refuse someone as cute as you,that's a,yes,from me as well." Friedrich says.
Together they give you one last Kiss on the cheeks before leaving.

After those two have taking they'r leave.You are stuck with another thought in your head.
You still want to ask other Ship Girls,that are interested in you,to be your Wives.You have some Ship Girls,in view.

Rushing through the day together with Z23,making the shopping lists for New Years Eve much easier.You make some final decision together with her and decide to close the office,hopefully,not coming back until Next Year.

You go to the Girls Dorm to ask others,that very special and important question.Entering the Dorm you head straight to,Graf Zeppelins Room.

Knocking on the Door,you hear a panicked,eek, from inside.After a few minutes the Door opens.She welcome you,handing you Tea and chocolate.

"Graf,i know we didn't really talk a lot....but i want to ask you something." you tell her.
"Ah,i see.If you are going to ask me if i will be your Wife,then my answer is Yes." Graf quickly says,not holding back.
"That's wonderful to hear,thank you very much." you say.

"Very respectful and thoughtful...nothing less expected from the one i chose." she tells you,sitting right beside you.
"Now then,may i have a few minutes snuggling with you.I was thinking for the past few days,what i would do if you didn't choose me." she explains,pulling a blanket over you two.

"As you wish Zeppelin." you say,putting your hands around her waste and your head close to her chest.
"Aren't you a big baby,so cute and adorable..." Graf says,stroking your hair.
"I am...but only a around my Wives." you tell her,hugging her tight,slowly enveloped by sleep.
"Take a Nap,Commander,you deserve it." She says,planting a Kiss on your head.Sending you off to sleep.

While you are asleep.Bismarck,Tirpitz and the Hipper class Sisters,come into Graf Zeppelins Room.Waiting and observing they'r Future Husband sleeping.

Some 20 minutes pass and you are waking up from the warmth and love,provided by Graf Zeppelin's embrace.
"Commander,we are sorry to have been admiring you in you'r sleep but we couldn't resist." Tirpitz says.

"I don't mind,i wanted to ask you a very special question." you explain to the Four Ship Girls,wanting to ask the same.
"We already know the question." Bismarck says.
"Me and my Sister,have decided to stand by your side until the end." Bismarck adds,pointing to Tirpitz.

"Oi,Idiot,we want to say something too." Hipper adds.
"Commander,we wanted to say,that we want to stand by your side as well.Me and my Sister,don'y mind sharing you between us all.Giving you our love and care." Eugen says.

"That makes me the happiest Man on Earth.I thank you very much.If you wouldn't mind me asking.Are you willing to move together with me into a New House ?" you ask them.
"That would be awesome,we totally want to !" Hipper says,exploding with happyness.
