DISCLAIMER: Ojamajo Doremi © Toei Animation in 1999-2004. I don't get any commercial benefit from this fic.
Author's Note: My another English fic is here!
Actually, I typed this fic long time ago, but in that time, I wasn't feel ready yet to publish this. Now, I'm ready to publish it, of course, after I make some correction.
Alright, here we go!
Uh, one more. In this fic, Doremi called Kotake with 'Tetsuya' (well, it's so ridiculous when they are going to be married but Doremi still call Kotake with his family name, which will she also use when they're married), but as the series always mentioned him with his family name, I'll stay to write his description with his family name (Kotake).
The Future Story
.
Chapter 1 – The Marriage Proposal
"Doremi, can we go to somewhere before we go to the Misora hall? I want to give you a surprise."
"Sure. Let's we go. I still have much time."
It was Doremi's 23rd birthday. Kotake had a plan to propose her as a surprise gift for her. He thought if they were already established enough to get married.
Now, they had worked in the job field that they wanted to work in. Doremi became a good pianist, and Kotake became a captain in Misora FC, and also, became a coach in a soccer school in Misora.
Tonight, Doremi would have a piano concert at Misora hall, but before that, Kotake wanted to propose her at a special place on this special day.
They went to a house, their would be house, by Kotake's new car – he bought both of the car and the house with his honour and bonus from Misora FC. Kotake didn't park his car in the house's garage. He parked it near the house, so that Doremi didn't know that the surprise would be given in that house.
"Okay. Now… I want you to close your eyes," said him, "I'll give you my surprise in a special place, so… I also want to make the place as a surprise for you."
"Hmm, I wonder… what the special present that you will give to me," replied Doremi, "It must be a great surprise."
"I promise, you'll like it. Close your eyes, and don't peep at it."
"Okay," Doremi closed her eyes, "If you sure that I'll like your surprise."
Kotake brought her to the house. They walked into it.
Doremi heard the sound of the door which Kotake closed, so she asked, "Hey, where do we walk into? Is it a restaurant? Or anything else?"
"I don't want to answer it. You'll know it when you open your eyes," said him, "I just can say that it's a special place."
"Can I open my eyes right now?"
"Yes."
She opened her eyes. That house wasn't too good and big, but it was great enough to make Doremi to be amazed.
"Wow, what a nice house," Doremi said, "Although it isn't too big, but this house is so… nice. I like it."
Then, she asked, "But by the way, who does have this house?"
"I think, that's a wrong question. You should ask me… who will have this house?"
"Okay. Up to you, Tetsuya…" sighed Doremi, "So… who?"
"Umm, we," Kotake said, "We'll have this house, and that's why, I said to you that this house is a special place."
"What? We?" asked Doremi, unbelievable, "I and you?"
"Yes," Kotake kneeled in front of her and shown a ring in its box, "Harukaze Doremi, would you want to marry me?"
"Uh, Tetsuya. I…" Doremi was speechless for a moments until she finally answered, "I would, Tetsuya."
Kotake stood up, "Really?"
Doremi nodded, "Sure, of course. I want to be your wife."
Both of them smiled and looked at each other. Kotake then put the ring on Doremi's ring finger.
Doremi then looked around the house more detail, "By the way, why does it look like someone decorates this house for a party?"
"Well, I decorate it to celebrate your birthday, and also… to celebrate my marriage proposal for you," Kotake said, "I invite all of our friends in Misora elementary."
"So, why aren't they here now?"
"I asked them to come later, so that… we have time for us. Just me and you."
"Tetsuya…"
"Doremi…"
They wanted to kiss at each other, but they couldn't, because all of their friends came there and saw them.
"Uhm, I think… we disturb both of you," Kimura said.
"Uhh… no. You all don't disturb us, right Tetsuya?" said Doremi.
"Uh, yes. She's right, Kimura. Even, we're waiting for you all," Kotake pretended to agree, but in his heart, he said, 'Huh, almost… It would be better if they didn't come earlier…'
"Doremi-chan, otanjoubi omedeto!" said Hazuki, "Wish you all the best."
"Hazuki-chan, arigatou."
Then, Doremi got many birthday gifts from her friends.
After they got the party, Kotake accompanied Doremi to Misora hall.
"Remember, you must do your best, okay? and don't be nervous."
"Okay, Tetsuya… my would be husband…"
"Good luck, my dear."
"Thank you, honey."
Then, Doremi went to the backstage, and Kotake came to his would be family in law, to the audience's seat.
At the backstage, Doremi saw her ring from Kotake, which he put on her left ring finger. She thought, 'Tetsuya, thanks for your surprise. Now, I promise, I won't ever make you and my family feel disappointed. I'll play well tonight.'
She took a deep breath, then felt more relax, "I can be the pro."
Then, she shown to all of the audiences that she could perform well.
After the concert was over, she walked to the lobby and met her family (and of course, her would be husband).
"Onee-chan, sugoi!" said Pop, "Your performance was so great!"
"Arigatou, Poppu."
"Uh, one more, onee-chan," Pop smiled, "Otanjoubi omedeto!"
"Okay, more thanks for you, my cute little sister."
"Well, Doremi, we heard from Kotake about his proposal for you several minutes ago…" their father sighed, "Huh, well… looks like I'll lost you…"
"Otousan… daijoubu da yo. You won't ever lost me. I'll always be your daughter."
"Well, but you won't ever live in our house anymore…"
"Uh, come on, otousan. I promise, I'll often visit you all after we get married."
"Okay, I trust you."
Then, they went home.
Author's Note: Well, way too short, but this is actually longer than before, at the first time I made and wrote (and typed) this chapter – I wrote the chapter in my notebook some years ago and then typed and saved it in my laptop about two or three years ago. I added some things just about one and two days before I published this chapter (I intentionally publish it on 30th July so that it makes sense with the story).
Actually, I'd already typed the second chapter now, and I'll update it soon, right after I update my other two multichapter fics – multitasking. It's way too easy for me now, although I don't know how hard it will be to update those three fics once I got new 'Real Life' job. Hope that I could handle all of them at once.
