Chapter 10: Dealing with Relationship Problems
"Are you serious?" Puck said with wide eyes.
Titania, Mustardseed, and the rest of the Grimms were back at the Grimm household (and completely ignored the still passed out bodyguard on the side of the road) in the living room. Titania had just revealed how to make Daphne and Mustardseed's relationship very much legal.
The Queen of Faerie nodded. "Of course, why would I lie?"
Daphne looked at her with a look of disbelief. "So...it's already been done? It's been legal since Puck was banished?"
She nodded. "As much as I hate to say it, when Oberon banished Puck years ago, he very much disowned him. I hated the decision; I really did. But I still treat him like a son." Ah, so that's why we didn't suspect anything earlier, Daphne thought.
"So what you're saying, ex-mom, is that if I marry Sabrina," said girl turned red and her father glared at the fairy, "Mustardseed and Daphne will be able to be together without it being illegal?"
"Yes, Puck, for the umpteenth time," his ex-mother said with a sigh. "And it's been that way for years."
Daphne groaned. "I can't believe it was that simple."
Mustardseed wagged a finger. "But I was getting married."
His almost girlfriend waved a hand dismissively. "Was; Not is."
"And whose fault is that?" he said in a teasing tone. Daphne mumbled, "Shut up."
Mustardseed laughed. "At least this relationship problem is over."
"And I do approve," Titania said. "If them dating mean a marriage in a few years then I'm all up for it!" She stood up. "Well, I believe I must be going. Mustardseed, are you coming?"
He shook his head. "Later; once I have spent time with Daphne." He said it so casually that Henry practically fell out of his chair. Titania ignored Henry and walked out with a small goodbye. As soon as she left, Henry whipped his head towards the young prince.
"How can you say that so casually?" he cried.
Mustardseed said simply, "Why shouldn't I?" Henry sputtered and narrowed his eyes at him.
"Stop your sass with me-" Veronica interrupted.
"Okay. Henry, why don't you help me cook dinner?" She grabbed him and his shirt into the kitchen. Granny Relda and Mr. Canis had went out to buy more supplies, so the people left in the living room were Jake, Puck, Sabrina, and the two lovebirds. Well, it would be better to say both pairs of lovebirds.
Sabrina stood up and took Puck's hand. "Let's give them some privacy. Let's go Uncle Jake." Said uncle groaned, "But I want to take embarrassing pictures of them and post them on Facebook!" Sabrina rolled her eyes.
"No, Uncle Jake." Sabrina pushed Uncle Jake towards his room as he grumbled. "Post some status or something on Facebook." Uncle Jake's frown turned into a mischievous grin as he walked into the room.
Sabrina then turned to Puck. "Now you- go into your room."
Puck waggled his eyebrows suggestively. "Are you coming with me?"
"No way!" she cried out, "You're so disgusting, Puck!"
"I was just thinking we could do homework," he said innocently. Sabrina scoffed.
"Yeah. Homework. We don't have homework, Puck! It's June!" Puck sighed as she pushed him into his own room. She waved at Daphne and Mustardseed, before going into her room.
Daphne blushed. "Sorry about them..."
"I really don't mind. I like them. It's nicer from the usual boringness," Mustardseed said. She smiled at him, and then shuffled her feet, trying to look for something to say.
"So..."
"Daphne," Mustardseed said. Oh no, he only says my full name when he's serious or about to say something bad. "I have a question."
She looked puzzled. "Well, ask whatever you want!" I hope it's not something disgusting.
"Do you care?" Her confusion grew.
"About what?"
"That you could be hated just being with me?" Daphne lightly scoffed.
"I'm already hated by some of the Everafters because of their captivity. So what would the difference be?" Mustardseed cracked a smile, and then turned serious again.
"What about the fact that you're human and I'm an Everafter?"
"That's Sabrina and Puck's situation; if they can make it work, then we can too," Daphne said confidently.
"So you don't care about that at all?" Mustardseed asked.
Daphne shook her head. "Nope. As long as I'm with you, I'm perfectly fine." Her inner voice gushed: Aww! My little Daphne is so sweet!
Mustardseed then grinned at her. "Then this is the perfect place to do it." He got on one knee, and held her hand. Daphne's heart quickened. Holy cow...
"Daphne Iris Grimm, will you-" She stopped him.
"Mustardseed, you do know I'm only, like 12 right?" He gave her a confused look.
"I know that."
"In Faerie, do people get married at 12?" Mustardseed looked bewildered, and stood up.
"No!" He then realized what she was thinking and shook his head vigorously. "Oh no, no, no,! I'm not asking you to marry me!" He then mumbled quietly, "When you're older, I will." Daphne still heard his words and blushed.
"So...you're asking me to be..."
"My girlfriend," he said with a laugh. "It's tradition to go on one knee to ask someone to be their girlfriend. I forgot it's different in America." He scratched the back of his neck.
Daphne laughed. "Oh, okay. So when you're asked to be married, what do you do?"
He winked at her. "Shh, it's a secret. You'll have to find out when I propose to you!"
"Or I can just watch Puck propose to Sabrina," she teased. Mustardseed shook his head.
"Nope! I'm not letting you. When the time comes, you'll know." The two laughed. It was nice, knowing that Mustardseed would want to marry her in the future.
Daphne cleared her throat. "So, are you going to finish what you were going to say?"
"Oh, yeah, yeah." He laughed and kneeled back down. "Daphne Iris Grimm, will you be my girlfriend?"
"No," she deadpanned. Mustardseed fumbled for words, and stood back up.
"Oh. I'm sorry..." Daphne burst out laughing, making Mustardseed confused.
She hugged him. "I'm kidding. Of course! I'd love to be your girlfriend!" Mustardseed grinned; looking relieved, and took out a necklace. It was simple. Just a gold chain with a symbol in the center. He gave it to her, and Daphne stared at it in awe.
Then Daphne laughed, "A marshmallow?" He nodded.
"I got it custom made. See the moon on it? Remember, that's my nickname for you."
"Then why don't you call me Lunar?" He grinned.
"Because Daphne is a much more beautiful name." Said girl blushed.
"Thanks. I love it!" she hugged him tightly then said, "Um, can you help me put it on?"
"Of course." She lifted up her hair, so he could wrap the chain around her neck without pulling her hair. He clasped it, and it fell onto her chest.
"Now it's official, right?" she asked, turning to him, just to see his face close to hers. They stared at each other; his blue eyes against her warm chocolate ones.
"No, not yet. As tradition, everything between a couple is sealed with a kiss." She turned red, but grinned at him. Because she wasn't as experienced as him, he took the lead and closed the space between them. As usual, she melted, and cupped his cheeks with her hands. His hands went around her waist for a second, before they pulled back. Of course, they were still young, so make-out sessions were a 'no-no'. This kiss lasted longer than their first one though: four seconds.
They hugged and enjoyed the silence.
That is, until they heard an evil laugh, and saw a flash coming from the hallway.
"Muahaha! I got a picture of them!" Jake laughed, dancing. Mustardseed and Daphne turned to look at the photo-crazed uncle and looked shocked.
"Uncle Jake!" Daphne cried. He laughed.
"These are so going on Facebook!" Daphne glared her best threatening one, but only succeeded in making him come closer and ruffle her hair. "Aw, you're so cute when you're trying to look scary, Daph." The whole time, Mustardseed just rolled his eyes.
"You're so childish sometimes, Jacob. It's hard to believe you're an adult." Daphne looked at her uncle and laughed. He had a shocked look on his face.
Daphne grinned cheekily at him, "Uncle Jake, you just got served by my boyfriend!" Boyfriend, Daphne and Mustardseed thought. It had a nice ring to it.
Her uncle wagged a finger at his niece. "You and him will be served if Henry finds out about your little kiss fest!"
Daphne sputtered. "Kiss fest? We only had one...and don't you dare say he was trying to take advantage of me!" She added the last part when she saw the look on his face. He sighed and sagged his shoulders.
"Fine, you win. I guess I'll be going to my room..." he tried sneaking towards the room, but Daphne had jumped on him and was now trying to take the camera away from him. She said, "Oh no you don't!" She snatched the camera and got off him.
"Hey!" he said, "Give that back!"
"Only if you promise not to post that picture of Mustardseed and me on Facebook! What would you do if you saw a picture of you and some girl you were dating -like Briar- on Facebook kissing?"
Jake frowned. "I'd be so mad I'd punch whoever posted that."
"See my point?" Uncle Jake looked at his niece and sighed.
"Alright, I won't post your picture on Facebook. I promise, Daphne. But I can't say the same for anyone who finds this picture and posts it..." He then ruffled Daphne's hair again, and walked into his room.
Daphne nodded. "Good, Uncle Jake! You're finally growing up!"
He shook his head. "Daph, sometimes you're too mature for your own good." He smiled and then was hidden behind his door. Daphne and Mustardseed sighed. They were about to say something to each other when Puck burst from the hallway with an angry Sabrina behind him.
"Why the heck did you look through my drawers and get these?" she was holding up her, ahem, chest undergarments with a furious look on her face. Puck held up his hands defensively.
"I just wanted to see what cup size you were..."
Sabrina yelled, "You don't do that, Puck! Dating in America is different from dating in Faerie!"
"How would you know?"
"I read A Midsummer Night's Dream, remember?"
Puck clicked his fingers together. "Oh yeah, but they didn't say anything about that in the book. And you totally read that book just to see if I was a virg-" Sabrina stomped her foot on the ground.
"I thought we went over this before! I did not! I wanted to know more about your past, you idiot!" Sabrina huffed. "And do NOT look through my drawers again! It's private! And how would you like it if I went through your stuff and took your boxers?"
Puck grinned. "I'd be flattered! I mean, by the size of my boxers, you'd be able to see how long my-"
"Puck!" Sabrina cried. "Don't say that when Daphne is around!"
He gave her an innocent look. "I was going to say how long my legs are, duh!" Sabrina groaned.
To add to the disaster, Henry and Veronica came out of the kitchen.
"Dinner's ready..." Veronica trailed off, taking in the scene before her. As soon as he saw Sabrina, her undergarments, and Puck, Henry's eyes widened as wide as saucers. Sabrina backed away, as did Puck.
"Dad," Sabrina warned, "It's not what it looks like..."
"Why do you have your bra with you? Did Puck dare take advantage of you? Fairyboy, you are so dead! You will be a corpse when I'm done with you!" Henry ran after Puck. The fairy zoomed around the room with a frightened look on his face. The whole time, Sabrina was trying to explain the situation-which wasn't working very well.
It was a mess in the living.
Daphne and Mustardseed watched the scene unfold. He then turned to her and grinned. She smiled back hesitantly. "Sorry, again. They're..."
Mustardseed laughed, and grinned widely. He had a cheeky grin on his face. "Have I ever told you how interesting your family is?"
