'Andrea! Will you please come get these two!?' I yell at Andrea trying to catch Andrea's twins as they're running around me making me Dizzy. 'I'm coming gods!' Andrea runs over picking them up. 'What'd I say about taunting Uncle Ash?' 'Not to do it..?' 'And what were you doing?' 'What you told us not to.' 'And what do you do when You annoy someone?' 'We're sorry uncle Ash.' The two copy eachother and I ruffle their hair. 'It's okay boys.' 'The Fact that you still don't have kids is a miracle to me.' 'I'm not even married yet!' 'Exactly my point. How long has it been? 2 years now?' 'Yes, Two years.' Oliver comes waddling over before clinging to Andrea and Tannar comes over right behind him. 'The twins being Chaotic again?' 'As always.' Andrea puts the twins down and then run off with Oliver. 'I told you not to get pregnant.' 'Shut up I love my boys dearly.' 'Mhm,' 'I do, I just need to get more sleep.. before I throw a pillow.' 'Yeah yeah.' I reach over the counter grabbing something before we get the kids and head out the door to meet the others in the cars. I meet Malikai and Zaiden and we start heading off to another concert. 'You excited Ash??' 'Obviously I'm alway excited why??' 'I just.. Have a feeling this fime is going to be extra special. After 2 years after all.' 'True.. but it's not an anniversary or anything, It's not any more important or special than the other shows.' 'Well.. We'll see. Just put on your best fave today.' 'Haha, Just because I have 17 glow in the dark masks, does not mean you can make that joke.' 'It does actually, I may not be a koala bear but I'm Koalafied.' 'Oh good lord this is how we start a concert it'll have to be good.' I hear Malikai laughing in the back seat before scootching closer to the middle front. 'Hey dad, Is it big??' 'I- Is what big..?' 'The ri-' 'OH! The ring lights, Yeah they're massive-' 'No dad the-' 'Malikai they're called ring lights.' 'What..?' I stare between the two. 'Ohhhhhhhh yeah I forgot, I thought they were round lights..' I shake my head staring out the window. 'Are you two planning something??' 'Like what??' 'Zaiden looks over at me looking confused. Maybe I'm just imagining things.. Damn it Andrea! You get in my head too much. I sigh shaking my head. 'Nah, Nothing.' 'Do you want me to plan something? I can plan a date or..' 'Nah.. I was just kinda confused.' 'Okay, Whatever you say Angel.' 'Hey Zaza.' 'Hm?' 'Can I ask you something?' 'Go ahead.' 'If you have to write a love song, What would you call it? Like about a wedding.' 'Why-?' 'It's a school project for our music class. We had to choose between marriage, halloween or death.' 'That's gruesome for 7 year olds.' 'Not like that, I mean like someone who passed away.' 'Ah, hm. You went with Marriage? I pictured you to be more of a halloween type.' 'I was.. switching it up a bit, The teacher said it'd do me good.' 'Alright.. I.. Hm. It depends on the lyrics, Send them to me and I can tell you.' 'Oh by the way, Zaiden are we doing that instrumental song? I feel like we should Add lyrics too it.' 'I think it's lerfect for now, We can decide after the concert.' I nod sighing before Checking my phone. 'Were late,' 'I know, I had it start a bit later so I can go grab something.' 'Did you get it?' 'Yeah its uhm.. In Clide's car it's the ring lights.' 'Ohhh That makes so much more sense, why Malikai brought it up.' 'Yeah, they're for at home but I uh, Forgot to take them out.' 'Ah, Alright. I'll helo you take them inside after ' I lean over kssing Zaidens cheek and he puts his hand on my leg. When we get to the concert we set everything up and start to get everything ready. Clide evntually comes over to me while I'm putting on my make up for under the mask so the open spots in the mask will look cooler. 'You almost ready?' 'Yep! How long do we have?' 'About 20 minutes, Everyone is still settling inside, we're going to have to trust Andrea's programming with the instruments today.' 'She usually gets it spot on so I doubt it'll be a problem.' 'I'm just worried about the uhm.. Lighting.' 'Why?' 'You'll see, If it doesn't go wrong you'll see what I mean.' 'Is this.. some sort of early anniversary thing you guys are planning because I know me and Zaiden's anniversary is soon-' '.. Aw snap you got us!' 'Oh good lord I knew it.' 'Damn it.. Just don't tell Zaiden I said anything, But there's going to be heart bubbles.' Clide walks off and I sigh. 'Zaiden really is adorable.. He has to stop being fucking adorable before my heart explodes I grab my Mask and whips before heading back over to Zaiden. 'You readdy Angel?' 'Yep! You?' 'Yep, by the eay we might not to that Blank song after all, so Just.. Step away for a moment while Andrea kinda fixes it there.' 'Alright.' We all finally head on stage and everything goes according to plan for most of the night. We eventually reach the last song and I step away as it's the blank song and I go to find out from Amdrwa which song were going to be doing until I hear the blank song start to be played in the background. I look back and notice they guys are all starting to play the song and I sorta stand staring in confusion. Zaiden suddenly grabs the Mic again as he starts singing. It's a love song about marriage.. Malikai! I zone out listening to the song. Near the end of the song Clide comes running over grabbing my hand and pulling me back on stage and onto the centre, as Zaiden walks over and while he's singing he puts a hand on my cheek facing me and I pull my ears down trying not to cry as I'm wagging my tail. The song dies down and Zaiden kneels down on a knee and I stare at him covering my mouth. No fucking way he's proposing right now.. this is a dream isn't it?? Any minute now I'm going to wake up.. 'And there'll never be another.. I promise that I'll love you for the rest of my life..' 'I stay quiet trying to Make sure this is real before I walk closer to him nodding, and I know for a fact I'm crying now before Zaiden gets up pulling me into a hug and The crows starts to go nuts. 'You planned this way too well..' 'I had to,' Zaiden kissed me hugging me again and I just lean into it before we finally leave the stage and clide takes over as me And Zaiden are stood behind by Andrea and he puts the ring on my finger kissing my head. 'You sneaky bastard thats why the song didn't have lyrics!' Zaiden starts laughing 'Finally.' 'Don't blame me! I'm slow recently.' 'I noticed.' Zaiden chuckles kissing me again. 'Okay love birds we get it,No need to make a scene.' I stare at Andrea before she smiles and looks down at the computer. We all finally get everything packed up and finished as everything ends before heading back home. Me and Zaiden mess around for a while with the others while they Taunt Zaiden and me since we took so long and since they Assumed Zaiden would end up single. Of course to get revenge in Clide for thinking this way I stole all his chocolate that night. He's never getting it back. 'Sooo.' Malikai walks over to me. 'What's it like marrying my dad??' 'Well I haven't married him yet,' 'I know, but what's it like knowing you're going to marry my dad.?' 'It's exciting.' 'I don't get how it's any different from dating.' 'Because it seals a bind between two people. It's like a promise.' 'Can't you just make that promise while dating??' 'Not the same promise.' 'Eh.' 'Now go to bed, You have school tomorrow!' 'Fine!!' Malikai runs over hugging me and I kiss his head before he runs off to go to bed and I head to bed waiting for Zaiden while reading a book. Zaiden shows up finally and plops down next to me hugging me. 'So malikai apparently has a crush..' 'On who??' 'His best friend..' 'Who?? That laurence boy?' 'How did you know??' 'I could tell, It's obvious.' 'Wait, You knew??' 'Well they hang out a lot in their rooms and they just.. seem like they want to be more than friends but they don't realize it cause they're only 7.' 'Ash..' 'What?? We were all 7 with a crush once!' 'I wasn't-' 'Well You're a different story Sherlock. I kinda had a crush on a good few bys which is how I got outed.' 'Ouch.. Kids can really be cruel.. I got my ass outed by Eric at 14... but people didn't believe him. Well some did others didn't..' 'I was, Outed by my best friend, who.. made everybody avoid me like the plague. I'll actually be honest I loved it. Except of course for the ocasional perverted asshole.' 'We got side tracked, What do we do about Malikai?' 'Leave him be, let him be a kid and figure it out. If he needs Advice he can ask.' I run a hand through Zaiden's hair as he starts to pass out with me putting the book down and passing out shortly after him.
The next morning the twins come running jnti the room with Oliver a d Malikai chasing after then as they come jumping in the bed. 'Seriously??..' I sit up looking at the kids and Zaiden just groans. 'Go back to your parents, you have 3 to choose from.' '5.' 'Oh right 5. Go.' They all start giggling before running off and Malikai sits down on the bed. 'Pappa, Dad.' 'Mhm?' 'What is it Malikai?' 'Dad sit up.' 'Ugh! You hate me.' 'Sure I do.' 'Rude.' Zaiden sighs sitting uo and rubbing his eyes. 'So.. I have something to say.' 'What is it?' 'I have a boyfriend.' 'No you don't.' 'I- How would you know dad??' 'Malikai, You don't have any confidence to ask anyone out.' 'To be fair.. He asked me-' 'Who??' 'Laurence.' 'That's not-' I nudge Zaiden. 'That's great to hear, Malikai, When did he ask you?' 'Over text this morning.' 'Malikai, you're 7. You don't have texts yet.' 'I might've allowed it..' 'Ash!' 'What?? He asked and I couldn't help it.' 'You said let the kid be a kid, so no texting so he's not always on the damn phone.' 'I know, But I made him a deal, He has 2 hours of text time each day total. The phone automatically makes his phone stop texting when he runs out.' 'You put his phone on a timer, and you think he won't try it hack it??' 'Fair point..' 'Malikai, Hand me your phone.' 'Nooo! I promise to stick to the rules!' 'Malikai.' 'Oh come on dad!' 'Malikai listen to your father.' Malikai sighs before Handing Zaiden hus phine and I get up to help Malikai get ready for school, Before Zaiden takes him and I return to read a book again before I start to feel nauseous. I sigh trying to ignore it but alas, Nope not today. I run to the bathroom and come back wrapping myself in Zaiden's blankets Great, now I'm sick... Zaiden eventually gets back and comes looking for me before finding me in his bed still. 'You okay?' 'I'm sick.. I'm nauseous..' 'I-.. Ash..' 'mhm?' 'Have you taken a oregnancy test recently??' 'Yeah, it came back negative yesterday.' 'Hm.. Maybe try taking another onez Just to be safe.' 'I've been taking meds though.' 'But there's a chance for it to not work remember?' I pull my ears down. 'I-..' 'go On, I'll wait here.' Zaiden comes and sits down next to me before I walk off to go take a pregnancy test. I walk back over to Zaiden holding it in the air so he can see. 'It's positive..!' 'It's positive..??' 'Yeah.. I'm.. sorry I was trying, I assumed it'd be fine if I-' 'Ash.. You don't have to be sorry. If you want the kid..' 'Do.. You want the kid...?' 'Of course I want the kid..!' 'So.. were going to have kids then..?' 'Yes!' I notice Zaiden's tail wagging again. And I hug him. 'Andrea is going to kill me..'
