The American And The Russian (Benny Watts) [The Queens Gambit]

Part 50 Mrs Watts

I smiled as I sat in the busy little room, the sounds of the cars outside on the bustling city streets, Every so often the women at the desk would call out for who ever was next. I felt like we had been here forever, watching the clock tick away
"Number twenty three!" she called I looked to benny and he smiled at me kissing my temple

"Not yet honey" He reassures "we're twenty six"

"Okay" I smiled fixing my dress a little "I'm just worried about is being late"

"We've got a while, we don't start till four" He reminds "we won't be late don't worry"

"We may have to hurry back though"

"Yeah we might,"

I smiled and took his hand, which he happily took squeezing back as we waited watching it get later and later

"Number twenty six!" the woman shouts and we both jumped up in excitement

"Do I look okay?" I asked fixing my dress again

"You look beautiful" He says "Do I look okay?"

"As good as ever" I shrug

"Hey!" He complained tugging me along to the desk of the impatient woman

"Mr watts? Miss y/l/n?" she asks

"Yes" I smiled

"Sign here, and here" she says handing us pens and pointing to little dotted lines on the paper she had already filled in for us, so I signed where she told me too and so did benny she took the paper checking it and giving it a stamp "Congratulations" she says putting the paper in the pile and giving us a copy of it

"Thank you" He smiled tugging me out the room as she called for the next person, so we hurried out into the steps I rolled up the certificate putting it in my handbag "so, We're married now

"We're married now" I smiled giving him a soft kiss and he happily kissed me back "shall we?" I asked getting out little box from my hand

"We shall" He smiled opening the little box and slipping the ring on my finger with my engagement ring, and I smiled giving him his own with his usual signet ring "YA tebya lyublyu"

"YA tebya lyublyu" I smiled

"Ohh fuck. We are late" He says as he noticed his watch I saw and grabbed his hand as we ran down the steps and hurried down all the streets hand in hand trying desperately to get to the hotel before the tournament started and we burst through the door just with one minuet to spare "I will see you soon honey bunny" He says kissing my head before he headed off to sign in, so I sorted myself out and signed in too having to correct myself as now my name had changed and heading off to the match sitting across from benny, I smirked fiddling with my ring as we plaid.

I smiled as we sat at the bar having a glass of champagne each

"I would have thought you'd go easy on me?"

"Why would I?"

"Because you love me?" he smirked giving my cheek a kiss

"Doesn't mean I'll let you win at chess Benny"

"But come on would think you'd be nice to me today... given?"

"I thought about it"
"And then decided to destroy me?"

"Yeah I did" I smiled

"Mean little wifey" he smirked

"I almost messed up when I signed in"

"Did you?"

"Yeah, forgot for a moment I'm Y/n Watts now"

"You'll get used to my last name" He winked

"Or I'll make you change yours"

"I am not changing my name. I like it. And you're cute as y/n watts" He smiled giving me a kiss as another sweet song started playing on the radio "A dance my sweet wife?" he suggested offering his hand so I smiled taking it as we went to an open part of the bar lucky hardly anyone else was here anyway "No fancy ballet stuff, you know I can't keep up" He warns and I giggled

"I will do my best Benny" I smiled wrapping my arms around him tightly and he did the same pulling me head onto his chest my head against his shirt, his hands on my waist as we swayed to the music

"I love you so much benny"

"I love you too" He smiled "Moya milaya ocharovatel'naya zhena"

"Moy krasivyy prekrasnyy muzh" I smiled "Benny?"

"Yes y/n?"

"Shall we go up to the room?"

"We can? If you're tried." He says

"I'm not tired" I smiled "I was wondering if you wanted to... go and you know" I smiled "as it's our wedding night"

"Wait." He says pushing me away slightly to see my face better "Are you serious honeybunny?"

"I am" I smiled

"You really wanna go and... do that tonight?"

"If you want to" I smiled

"I want to, so long as you're sure?"

"Im possible benny, it's our wedding night" I smiled

"Okay, come on then wifey." He smiled giving me a kiss and I smirked tugging his hand towards the elevator and up to our room.
