Primrose Path (A Harry Wells x Reader Insert)

Chapter 38

Your time here in Fiji is coming to an end and what an amazing time it's been. You don't think you can thank Harry enough for what he's done - for essentially resetting you back to normal.

On the final day of your honeymoon, you and Harry walk on the beach during the evening. The sun is setting beautifully in the distance where there's a contrast of some stars in the sky. Hand in hand, you swing your arms joke around. You're feeling playful tonight and you think of a little game.

"Hey, Harry."

"Yes, Flower?" A mischievous smirk curls onto your lips and you splash some water at him. He pulls a face like, I can't believe you just did that.

"Catch me if you can!"

You dash ahead full speed and repeatedly turn to look back at him, giggling like mad. He's definitely going to get you for that. He starts running through the edge of the waves to catch up with you, but as you laugh and toss your hair over your shoulder, silhouetted against the glowing orange and pink sky, he stops and just watches you with a strange look in his eyes.

You come to a stop, turning around with that goofy bright smile on your face. Harry remains standing in place, letting the little rolling waves rush over his feet. You walk back to him, wondering what's on his mind.

"Hey, are you okay?" you check. Your cheerfulness is replaced with concern as you search his eyes, placing your palm on his cheek. He puts his hand over yours, bringing the other to your waist to hold you close.

"I just... I love you so much and sometimes I still can't quite believe that you're with me."

"Harry, I'm always going to be with you," you whisper, the rush of waves silencing around you as if the ocean and beach can sense the moment. You take his hand and move it to rest on top of your beating heart. Harry watches you, you now realize, with a look of adoration. You swallow before starting again.

"My heart is yours, Harry. 'Til death do us part, that's our vow, remember? I'm never going to leave you, nor am I ever going to let you leave me again."

"I won't make the same mistake twice..."

You wrap your arms around his midsection and thank the universe he's yours. Officially, legally, and in every other way that matters. You look up at his face and notice his pensive expression directed at you, seeming to read there's still something left unsaid.

"Harry? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I, well, I guess now's a good a time as any to ask." He looks into your eyes and takes a deep breath. "I've been thinking about what I want. For you and me and our life together and, I want to know if maybe... do you want to... procreate with me?"

He looks totally earnest, and this is a serious conversation, but as you listen to him, you have to stop yourself from laughing at his choice of wording.

"Harry, do you mean do I want to have a baby with you?" You give him a humorous look, to which he awkwardly rubs the back of his neck - his habit in situations like these.

"Yeah. That," he stutters out, worried for your response. "But I'd understand if you don't want to. I mean-" And while he's rambling, you're internally shocked, because, damn, he's been thinking about having kids with you, too? This rocks your heart to the core at the very real possibility of having his baby.

"-Yes!" you interrupt him, snapping Harry out of his paranoid rambling state.

"-What?"

"Yes, I want to have your baby."

"Really?"

"A hundred times yes, Harry! I can't tell you how many times I've wanted to bring this up. It's just never been the best time, what with Darhk and everything. But he isn't going to let that stop me from what I want. What we want."
