Dear, Bunny

『🐰20』

K A T H L E E N

I felt Bunny's body press in, soft and warm. A tiny smile curls up on my lips while I just lay soaking it up.

This was the love I waited for, prayed for. I hugged all the tighter, burying myself further against her chest. A love like this was to be cherished for life.

I finally find the energy and pry my eyes open to see the most beautiful woman in the world resting in my arms.

Last night was incredible, literally the best night of my life. Bunny allowed herself to completely trust me, and in return I allowed myself to completely trust her.

Trust hasn't been an easy thing for me ever since the later years of my high school career. I'm not sure how it happened, but Bunny has somehow manage to get me to let my guard down and let her in.

A yawn slips out of me as I stretch as best as I can with her pressed against me, and glance out the giant window at the ocean. The sun is still resolutely below the horizon.

I lay awake longer, switching between watching the waves wash upon shore, and watching Bunny sleep before I start feeling restless.

I carefully untangled myself from her grip, giving her a soft peck on her nose before crawling out of bed.

Slipping into my pink robe and furry slippers, I quietly shut the door behind me so I don't wake Bunny up before heading downstairs.

The house is dead silent as I head into the kitchen to make myself a mug of coffee. I assume everyone is still fast asleep, so I'm surprised when I see Willow lounging in a chair at the table, her nose stuffed in some book she brought along.

"Morning," I finally say to her, noticing the freshly-brewed coffee resting atop of the counter.

"You're up early,"she simply says, still staring down at the pages of her book.

"Couldn't sleep," I reply after the first milky sip creeps over my taste-buds and down my throat. "Good coffee."

"What's that?!" she gapes at me in astonishment, sitting down her book.

My heart pumps uncontrollably in my chest as I followed Willow's stares down to my diamond.

"No fucking way,"she says quickly grabbing ahold of my hand. "You're getting married?!"

Just then Molly strolls into the kitchen, overhearing the conversation. "Who's getting married?"

"Kathleen and Bunny," Willow answered, still clenching ahold of me.

That caused Molly to gasp, staring as she held the jewel in her outstretched hand. "They're getting married?!"

I pulled away, staring at the two. "Girls—"

"MARRIED??" We all turn to see Gabriel walking towards the kitchen looking like he's ready to kill.

I threw my hand up helplessly, feeling more and more irritated with every second that passed.

"And why am I just now hearing about this?!"he says, looking a bit hurt.

I immediately felt guilty. Gabe was in the picture way before I was.

"Wait— who proposed?!" Molly blurts out.

"Well- Bunny did last night."

At the moment, Will groggily enters the kitchen.

"Bunny proposed?!" Will's eyes almost bulged out of their sockets at that.

"Poor Willow," Molly mutters, studying her up and down with a teasing look.
