White Gold


Trance and Harper lay in Harpers' room in each others arms watching a movie with the privacy mode engaged so that Andromeda would leave them alone, however, Harper wasn't paying much attention
//Everything is perfect, everybody else has accepted it with open arms hll, they seemed to expect it. Well, except Tyr, but hey -he's a Nietchien. It's too good to be true.//
"Trance, are you happy?"

"Yes! Why wouldn't i be?"

"I dunno, it's just that, i've never been with someone so long before. Especially someone i love as much as you."

"Harper I love you with all my heart, and more." she said, wrapping her tail around his waist.

"Really?"

Frowning at her boyfriend she continued, "Yes, really. Why would i say it if it wasn't true? And whats happened to the confident Harper?"

"He's, hiding. He'll be back soon."

"Huh?"

Pretending not to notice the look she gave him that was very simular to 'Are-you-nuts?' Seamus carried on,
"Can I ask you a question?"

"Sure Shay."

"What's your race called?"

"Shay, you know I ca-"

"Please Trance." he pleaded,

"Why?"

"It's important. Plus, you know everything about me -it's only fair."

Looking into his ice-blue eyes she saw that he really did only have good intentions so she made her decision.

"You have to swear you won't tell the others,"

"I swear. Cross my heart hope to die stick a needle in my eye."

"You're gonna have to do better than that mate!"

"Umm, okay then. I swear on your life, my life and my families' graves." swore Harper, totally serious.

"'kay. I've never told anyone this before so here goes. I'm from a planet called Esspocka in a galaxy that not you or anybody else knows about. It's a binary star system and there is only one inhabitable planet out of the 6 in the system.
My race is called the Cohesspio, we have precognetive and self-healing abilities. But, the rest of my race they're, terrified of outsiders, to leave the systems themselves and what they might find if they did. For some reason though, i'm not. When i was little i always wanted to travel and explore but everything that could be explored in our system had been centuries ago. So, i left and didn't look back."

"Wow. Didn't your family mind?"

Tears came to Trances' eyes as she continued, but they did not fall, "They disowned me when I told them what I wanted to do."

"Oh Trance, I'm so sorry." hugging her tightly he let her continue about her family and past.

"Don't be. They had always favoured my older brothers and sisters. I was the youngest of nineteen."

"Whoah, is all i can say," letting go of Trance he walked over to a drawer and pulled out a small purple box, the same shade as her skin.

"What's that Shay?" asked Trance as she got up and sat cross-legged on the sofa,

"You'll see in a minute," getting down on one knee Harper put out his hand and held Trances', "Trance Gemini. Will you do me the honour of being my purple, sparkly wife?"

"Yes!!!!!!!!!"

Opening the box he revealed an elegant white-gold ring with 'Trance Gemini' engraved into it, hesistating before putting it onto her finger he remembered something, "You do know what marriage is don't ya Trance?"

"Yes silly! I asked Beka what it was when i heard some people talking about it."

"Phew. Somebody up there does like me after all!" grinning like a two-year old with candy he slid the ring onto his now fiancées' slender finger. While he did so Harper looked into his wife-to-be's eyes;
//They look like black holes and I'm lost in them already.//

With this done he picked Trance up off the sofa and swung her around, content listening to her glee full giggling.
Putting her down they leaned in and began kissing each other gently, at firs, until it became impossble to restrain themselves. Lowering themselves onto the bed they unified.
