Stacy's POV:
Me and Lin walked in silence to the park, it was a comfortable silence, I could tell it was a Lin trying to adapt to the idea he would be a father silence. No problem with that silence at all. I was struggling to realise that I really am having a child with Lin-Manuel Miranda! I shook the thoughts out of my head as we entered the park, young children were playing frisbee and flying kites whilst many picnics were scattered across the floor.
"Sweetie?"
"Yes my beloved?"
"Do you know anywhere we could buy a kite?"
He grinned widely and began searching through the bag his parents gave us with the picnic food inside. After rummaging through bits and bobs he finally pulled out two kites.
"Wow..."
"Mis padres are always prepared." My parents etc.
I willingly took one out of his hands and let it fly in the air running to catch up. Lin laughed in surprise at my enthusiasm and quickly followed letting his fly next to mine.
"See look! It's like me and you next to each other!"
"Lin don't fly yours too close to mine."
"Like us! If we get too close we get tangled in each other!"
I looked at him to confirm and yes, by his wink, that was an innuendo. He laughed lightly as I rolled my eyes.
"There are children here Lin!"
He looked at me with his adorably huge eyes as I got lost in them and unconsciously added
"and you are a child."
He then raised an eyebrow as I blinked out of my phase realising the weirdness of that sentence.
"Don't worry Hun, you just zoned out at my beauty. Happens all the time."
He pretended to brush the dust off his shoulder as I mulled over the reasoning behind that move.
"Why do people do that move?"
"It's to look cool!"
"Yeah but if you are brushing the dust off your shoulder that means that you were collecting dust in the first place meaning that you are antique."
"Yeesh, you put a lot of thought into this stuff."
"Meh, thoughts develop over time."
He nodded in thought and proceeded to take care of his kite. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a parent telling her child off for getting his kite trapped in a nearby tree. Lin followed my view and immediately set to work, he tied his kite to a nearby tree trunk and made his way to the family, leading the parents over to me, he gave the sobbing child his kite to use and cast the parents thanks aside. He's gonna be such a good father. Once the family left he lifted me up taking me to the nearby shops for him to buy one.
"Real smooth Lin."
He stopped and laughed to himself,
"I practically swept you off of your feet."
I looked at him with the most bored expression I could muster as he seemed to be unable to stop laughing. Walking inside one of the buildings, I jumped when the door went Ding! as it closed. Lin noticed but kept his snarky comments in
"Hello, I am looking for a beautiful kite for a beautiful lady please?"
I blush as the lady behind the till motioned towards the far left corner of the shop, Lin put me down allowing me to choose.
"Isn't this for you though?"
"Nah, I can have your one. I'd prefer to buy you something than me something."
"Stop being so humble!"
He laughed in my face as I rolled my eyes and turned around.
"Don't you turn your back on me young lady!"
"You sound like my dad."
"Daddy or Papí, I don't mind."
Once again he winked making me actually laugh this time, he's really pushing it.
"How dare you laugh at my state-of-the-art innuendo! For that I get to choose the kite for you and you can't see it until we have left the shop."
"But Liiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnn..."
"Nope! Out."
I grudgingly left as he bought the kite. A few minutes later the door dinged and he walked through carrying the most beautiful kite I'd ever seen.
"Oh my god!"
"W-"
"-How much was this?!"
"One dollar."
"No it wasn't."
"Was! The till lady took 5 dollars off cause I gave her my signature."
"I see I'm not the only woman you smooth-talk with."
"Hey!"
"That's for kicking me out of the shop!"
"Ugh!"
I laughed as he stormed off in a strop, I quickly ran after him and jumped on his back because surprise piggy backs are the best piggy backs.
"You know you love me!"
"I cannot deny that! Well not until the wedding's over at least..."
"HEY!"
"You know I love you really! Now, I vote lunch then home since it's already 2pm."
"I second your vote to that."
He nodded in thought and began to lay out the picnic blanket.
"Lin?"
"Yup."
"Why do you always say 'I vote' instead of 'I think' or something like that?"
"Meh, once you do a 3 hour long musical based on politics it never fully seeps out of your mind."
"So you must be engrossed in today's politicians huh?"
"No! No way! So what if Donald Trump builds a wall! So what if he puts up the immigration ban? So what if he -?"
"- Take it you are then."
His shoulders slumped as he realised that he was, in fact, engrossed in the political debate.
"Hey that's fine though! It's rather cute actually..."
"I'm sorry?"
"I-I said that it's fine to be into the politicians and that!"
"And what did you say after?"
"Did I say something?"
"Don't play this game with me. You said I'm cute!"
"Along with being a Puerto Rican God of Sex."
"Boo yah!"
I looked at him raising an eyebrow to which he simply shrugged in return.
"Right. I vo-... I think we should have lunch!"
I laughed helping him unpack what his parents sent us with and began to tuck in.AN: Stopping it there! I know this day is taking ages but it's the last day before the marriage so I'm going to lengthen it out. See ya in the next chapter!
