Here's a drabble that I came up with when listening to music...it's CxD :)
-When I'm 64 by The Beatles
"You love me, right?"
"What kind of question is that, Derek? Of course I love you," his girlfriend said, confusion coating her words.
"Do you think you'll still love me when we are older?"
"Yeah..."
"Like, when I start losing my hair and I get grouchy?"
"We'll have to work on the grouchy part but yeah I will keep you around."
"You'll be older, too."
"Yes, that is how time works."
"You'll still be gorgeous."
"Derek...thanks babe."
His girlfriend turned back to her novel but Derek did not stop the conversation.
"And...you know if you just say the words...I'll stay with you."
"Are you trying to propose or tell me you just want to live in sin?" she asked with a life of her eyebrow.
"Neither at the moment...but I'd never make you live in sin...at least not for long..." he said witha smirk.
She rolled her eyes and leaned over to kiss his lips.
"I would take care of things around the house and you could knit me something. We could have a garden. It would be nice."
"This is a very strange conversation. And who would ever think the great Derek Venturi would want such a normal life?"
"Well, that's after I have an amazing hockey and film career."
"Oh. Well, that sounds more like you."
"We would have the sweetest little grandkids..."
"Derek...you would make a great father and grandfather. I love how you are with Marti."
"I changed my mind..."
"About?"
"I guess I am proposing. Case, will you marry me?"
"I...this is crazy."
"Case...please? I want you to be mine. I want you to still need me when I'm sixty-four."
"Yes...yes, Derek, I will marry you."
When I started writing this, I didn't expect it to end this way...but it did. Hope you like :)
