Breakfast In Bed

Post Proposal Bliss

Alyssa and Becky didn't emerge from the master bedroom for quite some time, only surfacing when the need for food overcame their desire for each other. Athena and Freyja made sure they pair knew just how upset they were to be locked out of their bedroom for so long. The women found it adorable and offered head scratches for forgiveness before venturing to the kitchen. Alyssa started to dig through the fridge when Becky stopped her.

"Let's order in. There is that Thai place that delivers."

"Alright." Alyssa offered a soft smile and instead pulled out two bottles of blue Gatorade. Becky took that moment to appreciate the fact that her fiancé was wearing only that oversized FCKC shirt. Alyssa turned around and smirked. Becky's only response was a fierce blush but cocky gaze.

The pair found their way to the living room and sunk next to each other on the couch. Once nestled in the comfort of Alyssa's arms, Becky brought up the Thai menu online so they could pick their meal. The goalkeeper left the ordering to Becky, choosing to grab the Xbox controller and surf through the TV for something to watch. She settled on Narcos, a show they both knew and loved. Becky placed their order and nestled further, enjoying the way Alyssa's arms automatically tightened around her.

"So...."

"Yes?" Becky turned up and pressed a kiss to Alyssa's jawline.

"So, when do we tell the gals?"

"Crap. I completely forgot about them." To be honest Becky had forgotten about everyone but herself and Alyssa once Alyssa had said yes. No one else seemed to matter in those next few hours. Her honesty made the goalkeeper laugh. It took her a good minute to calm down.

"As did I until I started scrolling through my phone and saw I had a text from Chris. We have to figure out how to tell them."

"Well, forget phone calls. They take too long and then we have to pick who to call first and that means hurt feelings which I do not feel like dealing with today." Becky was firm in her refusal. She remembered all too well the fiasco that occurred when Syd got married out of the blue and didn't tell Alex immediately.

"Alright, phone calls are out. What about a group text?"

"That will be followed by a swarm of phone calls. No one...knew I was planning on proposing besides your twin and your folks. She is the one who helped me pick out the ring."

"Ugh your right...wait you kept this a secret for how long with Amanda talk to? Why did you tell my folks?"

"Yeah I needed Amanda to help pick out the ring and...well I asked for folks for permission to propose."

"You did what? Becky that is.... incredibly sweet." Alyssa tilted her head so that she could show her appreciation of the defender's thoughtfulness with a kiss. "How did I not notice you doing all of that?" Alyssa thought beforehand her and Amanda were extremely close. They spoke multiple times a week. Her twin powers apparently had let her down on this one. She stared at her new ring as it reflected the sunlight, the diamonds sparkling brightly. She cannot deny that they did a kick ass job. The ring was perfect for her.

"Because we have been playing a crap ton of soccer and you have been training night and day to make sure you keep that number one keeper spot. We are also trying to maintain a relationship while living in two different cities and traveling constantly."

"Well when you put it that way..." Alyssa dropped a kiss on Becky's forehead. "I have been busy."

"Mmhmm. Now seriously how are we going to tell the gals?"
