Chapter 1: The Proposal
I sat in my tree, looking out at the Purified River. I was struggling with myself. One side of me was screaming to just ask her, she already showed that she really loved me. The other side was protesting that she deserved so much better instead of me. Someone cleared their throat below me.
I looked down and saw her. Ororo Monroe. The woman I was fighting with myself for. She smiled, "I thought I'd find you here. Are you coming?" I jumped down and kissed her hand, "Of course, liebchen. Forgive me for not coming sooner."
She rolled her eyes, "You're forgiven." She held me tight as I teleported us to the mansion. As we walked to her room, I thought again of asking her and wondered if she would accept. She looked at me suspiciously, "What are you thinking about?" I sighed, "I have a question for you but I don't know if I'll like your answer."
We finally reached her room and she turned to me, "Why? Is it a bad question?" I shook my head, "No, not really. It just makes me doubt why you love me. What have I ever done to deserve your love?" She pursed her lips and turned back to unlock her door. When we were inside, she turned back to me and kissed me. She said between a kiss, "Easy. You were there for me. You listened."
I opened my eyes. This was not good. I just sinned. How did I let myself fall for this? I looked over at Ororo, duh, I can see perfectly how.
She stirred but did not wake. I stood up and got dressed. I shook my head, what have I done? Ororo needed me so much last night, I allowed myself to sin. Would I ever be forgiven for this?
She stirred again and this time woke, "Kurt?" I did not answer, I simply just sat back down on the bed and put my head in my hands. She frowned, "Kurt, what are you thinking? Do you hate me now?" I laughed weakly, "Like I could ever hate you, love! I hate myself. We should've never done that. It was irresponsible, it was…" I trailed off when I saw the tears in her eyes.
"You regret it, don't you? You think it was a mistake?" she asked the words as if they were the last ones that would ever be for me. I wanted to deny but lying was a sin too so I kept my mouth shut. She exhaled and shook her head, "I'm sorry. I don't regret it. I love you!" I looked away. We were silent for a minute and then she got up with the sheet wrapped around her and held the door open for me.
I stood up and went in front of her, "I love you too!" The first time I ever spoke the words to her. I stepped out of the room and the door slammed shut. Everyone was still sleeping and had not witnessed anything. I teleported to my room and gave myself two penances.
One was for the sin and the other was a punishment for the way I treated Ororo. A few hours later, everyone was up and about. I walked slowly to my classroom and stood in front of my desk, waiting for my students. School went thankfully by quickly. Before I knew it, I was up in my tree again.
I gasped when I saw Ororo there sitting on the shore. She looked up at me and smiled politely, I'm guessing. I looked away, some apology. Then, before I knew it, I was soaked. A raincloud was above me.
I sighed and saw Ororo stifle a laugh. I shook my head and teleported over to her, "Want to get a little wet?" She stood up, "No, I don't think I do." I laughed and picked her up. She protested but I ignored her and teleported above the river.
I kissed her cheek, laughed, and dropped her in. She screamed before she hit the water. I teleported to the shore and waited for her to come out and sit with me. However, when she came out, she walked right by me. I stood up swiftly and followed her, "Ororo!"
She ignored me and muttered something unintelligible. I teleported in front of her and caught her waist. She sighed, "Don't you love me at all, Kurt? Or were you with me because you felt sorry for me?" I frowned, "Of course I love you, liebchen. I'm going to ask you something so stop distracting me!" She looked at me with narrowed eyes.
I smiled and leaned in. With all the courage and love I could muster up, I whispered the words in her ear. My whisper, "Will you marry me, Ms. Ororo Monroe? I love you. I'm in love with you!" She moved back a little to look at me. We stood there for a minute, then she threw her arms around my neck and kissed me, "Of course I will marry you!" I grinned, said "Good," and slipped the white gold ring on her finger…
