Void- Jamilton

Bridal suites and Baby steps (pun and alliteration intended)

Alex POV

Okay.. Last thing I remember is finding out I'm having the royal baby.. Thomas proposed and then I passed out...Fun night. Thomas must've carried me to bed.. Cause I'm in it. He's also asleep next to me. I try to sit up.. But why would I want to, when my second favorite person, my first is Pip, duh, unimportant, sleep time. Because it's still dark outside.

Thomas POV

What a rare sight. My NOW FIANCÉ. Sleeping. I smile. "Good Morning sleepy head~" I say teasingly. "Morning Tommy,." I kiss his cheek earning a tired smile from him. "How do you feel?" I said, brushing hair out of his face so I can read him.

"Tired. Hungry. Nauseous.. Somehow really turned on by your morning voice?" he chuckles.

"Well I can fix the tiredness and hunger. I can't fix the nausea Darlin'.."

"Aw man.." he pouts, nuzzling into my chest.

"I know.. Sorry.."

"Sorry for pumping a baby in me or sorry for me getting morning sickness?"

"Which one is worse?"

"The latter."

"Then the morning sickness." I say, kissing his forehead.

"Stop being a good partner. I love you for it though.. Don't stop."

I smile. "I won't...ever."

I sit up and brush my hair out of my face. "..So what are we going to do about the whole getting married thing?" Alex asks. "It's tradition to have a big fancy wedding, but I don't know. What do you want to do?" I ask. "Maybe we should do the wedding after I have the baby so it would be easier? It's only what..9-10 months?" Then all of a sudden, my mother came in.

"Sorry to eavesdrop but it would be easier to perform the wedding before the baby." We both looked at her, clearly confused by her sentence.

"But then everyone will know about the baby and I don't want that yet.." Alex mutters.

"Alex my dear, we have many spells to conceal your abdomen. It won't bring harm to you or your child."

"Oh. Cool."

"Anyway, I'll be getting the wedding suite ready for you Alex."

"What."

"Royal tradition, just go with it." I nudged him.

Alex POV

-time skip-

What is white.

If not Ivory and dusty eggshell and broken cloud-

Holy sh*t I think my brain is broken. Is this what artists feel like? I've been looking at pure white for an hour and a half.. "What about a pastel green?" I interject. "Hm, I could see it. A woodland nature themed wedding, with fairy lights, and crystals." Now we're speaking my language! Wait. Oh sh1t. If I'm going to live here then what am I going to do about my old house?

"ALEX!" I flinch.

"You were in the zone Darlin'.. You okay?"

"Mhm.. Just thinking.." I mutter

-a time skip to save Alex from the sights of absolute white-

I sit on the couch, I hear jingling in the door.

"Pops?" I heard Pip call. I hear the door lock and see the now quite tall figure now in front of me. I smile at him.

"You and George are still looking for a place?" I ask, his facial expression knows the question is out of the blue.

"Y-Yeah why?" I stand.

"I'm giving you the house."

His breath hitched.

"T-This house?" he stutters.

I nod.

"I'll visit every once in a while. But this place is yours. I asked Thomas to buy it. And I put the money in your account so you could start out."

He hugs me, I wrap my arms around him, smiling. We soon let go of each other and we sat down back on the couch.

"I'll be living in the castle. All my stuff is cleared out, and the extra room has been cleared out." I chuckle.

"W-What about Nevermore?"

"I have him too Pip, don't worry."

He nods.

"If I hear you've been trashing the place with George I will come and smack the sh1t out of him."

We both chuckle.

...I don't think he knows I'm not kidding but I won't burst his bubble.

I stand.

"I have to go. Thomas made sure to let everyone allow you to the castle whenever you want."

He smiles. He hugs me once again, I can feel his hands shaking.

-time skip-

I Intertwined Thomas and myhand as we walked into the garden.

"It's crazy to think I'll be a king with you." I mutter, smiling at the sight of all the flowers.

"It's crazy to think we're already expecting a baby," he responds, also smiling. I lean into his shoulder.

"I'm guessing you did it huh?"

I nod.

"I feel better knowing Pip'll look after the house.."

"And having fun with his boyfriend-"

"Shush."

I pull him into a kiss, just before we're interrupted by Mary the Handmaiden, a sweet woman, bad timing.

"Mr.Ham-"

"Alex, please."

"..Alex, the bridal suite is ready and customized to your liking!" she smiled then winks at Thomas

I look at him confused.

"I may have asked her for a tiny little favor. Go look in your suite."

"Okay..?" I go with Mary, doubtfully.

I see the hallways. Everything feels like it's from a fairytale. I still can't believe it.. I'm living here.

"Here it is!" she chirps happily.

I look around the room, it's a beautiful blend of olive and mint green. Good god Thomas knows me well. I look down to see a note on the note.

'Good lord I'm writing a note like an idiot.

But uh, everything was white and I knew you wouldn't like that so I asked the handmaidens, who by the way really like you, you gotta few crushes darlin'! Anyway, I didn't want you to go blind so I figured out a few of your favorite shades and pulled this! Love you! -Thomas <3'

I hear Mary closing the door. I smile and lay on the bed. Good lord it's big. I chuckle and laugh excitedly. I feel like everything is melting away and see the light of the afternoon pouring into the windows.

I'm going to be a prince...

"I'm going to be a king!" I smile. 

Short but it's here!
