I found myself unable to truly enjoy the movie, I was still pre-occupied with the looks we had received during our trip to the store today. Chicago wasn't a really conservative city, but I guess we just couldn't avoid it. Plus, I looked weird. And I was famous. I may have to say something about it on Twitter.
Ana squeezed me a little, "You okay honey?"
I nodded, not really wanting to bother her with my downtrodden thoughts.
She didn't buy it though, kissing my cheek until I looked at her again, "What's wrong?"
I finally sighed, "I keep thinking about the looks I got today."
Ana sat up, leaning on her elbow and pausing the movie, "Eve you really keep thinking about them?"
That is what I just said. I nodded.
Ana leaned down and kissed me, "I promise you, you are the most beautiful person in the world. And these?" She gently ran her hand over my ear, not hard enough to hurt, "They'll eventually go away. And you have your cute beanies now, which I know isn't exactly the best solution but if it's what makes you feel better about yourself then it's okay."
I bit my lip, looking back at the TV. Peter was stuck hanging in mid-air. I honestly just didn't want to think about it anymore but I knew my thoughts would persist.
"Is there something I can do to help you with these feelings?" Ana asked me.
I shrugged and shook my head, I don't know.
"Can I get a smile from you?"
Another shrug. This one, however, led to a smirk from Ana. She cuddled back up to me and pressed play on the movie. I wasn't sure how the movie would help, I couldn't really pay attention to it-
"You know? I don't always quote songs written by your dad," Ana began, "But that's just who I am this week."
I burst out laughing, covering my mouth. Ana smiled, looking at me as I laughed, and continuing, "I do have to admit, I stole that one. My lawyers should have made me change the punchline so I wouldn't be sued."
My laughing grew louder, and I could hear her giggles in my ear.
"Guess what I'm gonna do tonight?" Ana asked innocently, laying her head on my shoulder, but looking at me still.
"Hmm?"
"Sugar, I'm going down on you."
I gasped, playfully slapping her arm. She laughed, kissing my cheek. I couldn't help but laugh, this time even louder.
"Oh come on, don't be such a Folie a Douche," at this point, I was cackling, bent over in bed trying to catch my breath.
Ana smiled, kissing my cheek, "Feel better?"
I nodded, giggling. Ana smiled and kissed my forehead, pulling me back down to cuddle.
A few minutes later I mumbled, "Folie a douche..." It sent us into giggles again, which Mom walked in on.
"Girls, dinner's ready," She said, smiling at our antics. I bolted up, hopping out of bed and running out of the room. Ana came running after me, catching me just before we got to the kitchen and nearly sent us into the wall. We both laughed, coming into the dining room and sitting at the table. Declan and Antero were laughing at us as well, and Mom and Dad just smiled.
"How's your dad doing Ana?" Mom asked, setting down a plate of burgers by Ana.
"He's doing good, should be out tomorrow morning," Ana said, taking a burger and placing it on her bun. The plate was passed to me and I quickly placed a patty on Declan's bun before passing the plate back to Dad.
"That's great sweety," Mom said.
We spent dinner talking and laughing, and then moved to the living room to watch Infinity War with the rest of the family.
We got to the end and I had sobbed at least a few times. I had grown to love Gamora, and this boi really had to go throw her off a cliff. And Thanos freaking won! The movie itself was just bull crap.
I took Ana's hand as we went into my room, wishing my parents goodnight. Declan and Antero had passed out a few minutes into the movie, each having been overstuffed with food.
Ana and I ended up cuddled in bed, slowly falling asleep, about an hour later (although I did have to swat her hands away a few times, all in good fun though).
"Eve?" I heard this as I turned around in a house I didn't recognize.
Ana stood by what looked to be the kitchen, hair pulled up into a ponytail and a grin hanging from her features. She looked... older. Not in a bad way, of course, her face still shined, but she had a few more wrinkles.
"Yeah?" I said, watching as she wagged her finger for me to come closer. I walked over, not by my own accord, but I didn't really mind.
She kissed me, "Do you want a glass of wine?" I nodded, following her into our little kitchen.
"Where are Maia and Zach?" I asked, sitting at the table.
"They're at dance and soccer practice, remember?" Ana sat next to me, two glasses of pink wine in her hands, "Zach has a performance this weekend and Maia has a game against the other peewee team in the county."
I nodded, "That's awesome." I have kids.
"You feeling alright?" Ana asked me, holding my hand, "Maybe you shouldn't drink wine..."
I laughed, stopping her from taking my glass, "I'm fine. Just happy."
"That's great baby," Ana kissed me, and as she pulled away I noticed a ring on her finger. We were married.
Everything is okay.
