[C] In Your Arms

a memorable thanksgiving

We spent the rest of the night out in the porch, with light coming from the fire as we laid down gazing at the sky.

"Man, I couldn't believe you said yes," he says while looking at me straight in the eye.

"What do you mean?" I asked him.

"I...I thought you would disagree," he answers.

"Wait what?! To you?! Of course I won't disagree!" I pouted.

He chuckles. "My dear, you are so cute."

My face becomes red in embarrassment.

"Wh-what?! You freak!"

We both laughed.

"Dear, thank you for being my one and only. I never would have thought of having my dream boyfriend become my real-life one," I said and smiled at him.

It was a fairly simple yet memorable Thanksgiving. We were completely new to this, but it seems that it was better off if we explore more of ourselves than to just be married immediately.

I woke up the next morning at our room. I was beside him and he was hugging me as he dozes off. Man, he's so cute, I thought to myself. I closed my eyes and hugged him as well.

"Breakfast is ready!" Mom shouts just as we were about to have our own time.

"Hey dear, wake up, time for breakfast," I said as I kissed him on the forehead.

He opens his eyes and looked at me quizzically.

"Breakfast...?"
