Two weeks. That's how long it's been since your fiance, Rogue, proposed to you. You told everyone in the guild last week. Yes, it was a bit awkward, but you managed to pull through it. You didn't think you were going to make it without Rogue, he was basically the rock that kept you steady and balanced. You had absolutely no idea how you've managed to live without him before now.

All the thinking you've been doing had been bothering you too. There was the wedding, Hana, and you've been feeling sick the past few days too.

"(Y/N)?!" You hear Rogue yelling throughout the apartment. You were sitting in a bubbly bathtub filled with hot steaming water. It was really relaxing and made you feel better. "(Y/N)? Are you in there?" Rogue asks, knocking on the bathroom door.

You managed to find a regular sized towel (unlike last time) and just plop it over your head, not bothering to get out of the tub. The towel covered you so that's all that mattered. "You can come in if you want." You lightly yell through the door. You would have been beyond nervous if it wasn't for the towel, steam, and bubbles.

Rogue opens the door and walks in, sitting on the edge of the tub. "What's wrong?" He asks you, scootching over to get closer to you.

You grab the towel and cover your face with it. "Nothing." You lie.

Rogue grabs the towel and moves it so he can see your face. "Come on, you're not usually like this. By now we'd either be arguing about my perverting nature or having s-"

"Don't say it so loud!" You cut him off with a bright red face. You pushed his shoulder so that he almost tipped over into the tub. Sadly, he was hard to push over. You were just hoping that Frosch, who was watching t.v. in the living room, wasn't listening to this conversation.

Rogue smiles and grabs another towel to put around you; a towel that isn't already wet from the bath. "What's bothering you?" Rogue asks, leaning his head against yours. He was holding onto the towel's edges as it was wrapped around your body.

You breath heavily and shrug. "I guess I'm just... worried."

"About?" He asks.

You shrug again, not sure how to even answer that simple question. "I... don't know. It's hard to explain." Rogue surprises you when he gets up suddenly. "Huh? What are you-" You start to ask him.

He was holding his hand out to so he can help you out of the tub. "Come on, we're going out to eat. I don't want my fiancee depressed in the bathtub of our apartment." Your eyes were wide over his recent comment. Neither of you have ever called it "your" apartment, just the apartment. "What is it?" He asks.

You shake your head and smile. "Nothing."

"I wish Frosch came with us." You sigh.

Rogue offers a smile and grabs your hand. "He's fine, I double checked. Turns out he fell asleep after watching a butterfly documentary on t.v."

You smile. "Well, at least we're bringing him back some ice cream."

Rogue nods. "I'm sure Frosch will love that."

That word again... the source of all your thoughts and stress. LOVE. Don't worry! You love Rogue and Frosch with all your heart, it was just... other things.

You stopped walking, making Rogue stop too. "What's wrong?"

You two were walking across a pretty big bridge that went over a wide river in your town. It was almost sunset, so there weren't too many people around, unlike the day Frosch got lost. What a terrible day that was...
