Chapter 12

Lumine's POV:

Aether and I didn't shut up about our rings. Both of us talking about the weddings, how we maybe might share one but didn't want to take attention away from the other.Everyone was happy for us. Ajax smiled everytime he caught me looking down at the ring. But time came to go home and get back to work. The kids cried when we left. And I felt terrible. I cried in the car, I felt bad saying I had to leave when those sweet children have me those cute little eyes. Ajax comforted me and this time we left together. Even on the plane. Now wanting to move in together asap. We had two days to spear before the company went back to work. So we spent those two days moving in my stuff.Our stuff now organized together, his house no longer for one.This felt right. Everything felt perfect. As soon as we get married we'll come out about everything. He promised he wouldn't hide it."Now it smells more like you in here!" He laughed."Good it doesn't smell bad now~" I teased."Oh hush~" he laughed.He pulled me in to another soft kiss. I smiled up at him. Maybe we are moving a bit fast, but once you find love like this. Why take it slow? We only live once and I went to spend the rest of it with him."I'm surprised we got this all done so fast!" I smiled."We'll you didn't have that much! It was just an apartment!" He said,"That's true.." I said before walking to our now shared closet. I changed into something more comfy. "Dinner time?" I peaked over to him,"Definitely!" He smiled.We walked to the kitchen and we cooked together. It felt so nice. Like this is how things were meant to be. Cooking together smiling and laughing. It all felt just right. ————I wore my ring to work. There was a lot of talk especially since no one even knew I was taken. Ajax had to go to a meeting at another company today so he arrived later then me. And everyone was talking when they saw a ring on his finger as well. Some people put together others questioning the coincidence. No one dared to come and ask either of us.Although thoma quickly rushed to my office."Lumine!" He opened the door."Oh! Hey!" I said surpised by the sudden intrusion."I just heard! Congratulations!" He handed me a flower bouquet with a little card."From ayato and I! Don't worry!" He chuckled."Oh thoma.. Thank you.." I smiled.Wow in 4 hours he got me a bouquet and card already..."So is it Mr. tartaglia?" He asked."Ayato was dying to know.. hahaha.." he chuckled."Y-Yes it is.." I blushed."So is he the "jerk" from before?" He smiled."Yes..." I rubbed my temples."We'll then I'm glad he figured it out! He's a lucky man!" He smiled."Oh! Thank you, tell ayato thank you for me as well!" I smiled. "Of course! I'll see ya around!" He waved as he left.I placed the flowers on my desk and looked down at my ring. It felt so unreal. I'm really engaged, to Mr. Tartaglia.. I can't believe it.. I sat down at my desk and dazed off as I looked at my ring. "There's my lovely fiancé!" Ajax walked into my office and sat in the chair in front of my desk."I don't like that tone..." I sighed."Oh hush I'm not here to bring you anymore work! Well sorta.." he laughed. "Oh?" I looked up at him."I was wondering, should we get a wedding planner?" He asked."What?! No way they are way to expensive! I can plan the whole thing!" I said shaking my head."I know but your already so busy, plus this day is about you. You shouldn't be the one planning it." He said."Hmm.. Weddings aren't THAT hard to plan, planning is easy. Doing it all alone is hard. We have to figure out what type of wedding. What's our theme? And where? Then it's all easy from there! Picking the venue, getting a minister, picking the food and catering, decor, and the rest!" I said."Alright.. what type of wedding do you wanna have Lumine?" He smiled.I chuckled."Sir I'd love to talk about this, but you have meeting in 30 minutes, let's talk about this tonight..." I smiled as I got up and walked around my desk and got into his lap.He smirked up at me."Sounds good to me.." he smiled and I leaned down to place a kiss on his lips."Now get back to work.." I said as I got up."Very well! Off I go!" He said before getting up.What am I going to do with him. He's too distracted. I looked down at the ring and smiled. What will our wedding be like.. ———We got home and had changed from our work clothing and I slipped on something more comfortable. A soft pink hoodie and short white shorts."Wedding planning time?" He asked as he picked me up."We can talk about it over dinner. Your so excited.." I chuckled."How could I not be. I want you to be my wife!" He smiled.My face flushed and I looked away."Oh? Flustered?" He chuckled and began to walk to the kitchen. "When you say stuff like that all of the sudden I can't help it..." I covered my face."Your cute.." he kissed me.He carried me to the dining room."Don't tell me.." I giggled."Yep! The chefs are making dinner this time!" He smiled."Okay okay, we can start planning.." I chuckled.One of the maids came out and gave me and him a glass of wine. I picked it up and sipped it."Mmm, blackberry, my favorite.." I smiled."Oh I know.." he smiled at me.I softly giggled. He's such a dork. When those blue eyes are begging and looking at you it's hard to resist. When he's so thoughtful even through his excitement. "So what season?" He asked."Hmmm.. how about.." before I could say it he sighed and went,"Fall?" "You know me well.." I chuckled."Do you not want a fall wedding?" I asked."I don't mind it it's just very not... romantic?" He said."Aww you don't think so? I think fall is so romantic! Cute fall dates! Cafe's! Corn mazes!" I said and smiled.He chuckled as he listened to me."Okay okay true but, what about a winter wedding?" He asked."But it'll be cold.." I frowned."We'll only have photos and the ceremony outside!" He said."But then all of the bridesmaids would need coats built into their outfits, and so do I.." I said."I think you'd look stunning with a pure white coat~" he smirked."Why do you really wanna have a winter wedding? You have to know it's not conventional!" I sighed.Before he could speak there was a knock at the door and then our dinner came in. Oh chicken parm! I loved this dish so much! I did enjoy Italian food and he knew it. A side salad and asparagus was served with the main course. "Snezhnaya is beautiful and it's winter all the time. I like white on you and around you.. it's compliments you.." he looked into my eyes.My face flushed. "W-well if you really want a winter wedding I'm not opposed I'm sure we can figure things out so everyone is comfortable.." I blushed."Are you sure? I don't want to make you do a winter wedding.. this day is all about you after all!" He looked suddenly nervous.I giggled, "It's about both of us..." "I know I know... I just want it to be all about you..." he smirked."Okay okay so winter wedding.. In Snezhnaya.. I can definitely work with that!" I smiled."I do think we should get a wedding planner! Money isn't an issue, and I want you to be relax about the whole day!" He said."Y-Yes but what if they mess something up!?" I said worried."They plan it with us. Don't worry, it'll be okay.." he smiled."Hmmm.." I looked down."Lumi you already work so much.." he frowned at me."Fine fine.. We'll get a wedding planner.." I sighed.He smiled and I smiled back at him. I can't believe this is really happening.I looked down at the ring on my finger. It sparkled and I loved how it wasn't too flashy. It was perfect. He really knew me well.
