Oh My Goddess!

The Proposal

Disclaimer – I do not own these characters in any way although I wish I did.

Notes – through out the whole of the fic Belldandy is been referred to as Bell because I'm too lazy to type out her full name and I'm fed up with it been underlined in a red wiggly line dam Microsoft word. I am also not particularly good at romance so some of this might class as lemons sorry.

Please rate and review this work it's my first posting here, and my first attempt at an anime fic. ^_^

"Keiichi"

Keiichi looks up from his work at Urd "what do you want? Can't you see that I'm trying to get some work done here?"

"I want to talk to you about Bell while she isn't here."

"Well can you hurry up please this is important, especially if you want to carry on living here rent free."

"Fine I'll make this short; when are you going to ask her to marry you?"

"M...M…Marry me?"

"Well the two of you have been together now for two years and the two of you are infatuated with each other so you might as well ask her."

"I'd never thought about it," Said Keiichi with a contemplation expression on his face, "but what would Skuld think she's always hated me for taking Bell out of the heavens, and if we got married then"

"Don't worry about Skuld I'll talk to her but I don't think she'd mind that much she's gotten to like it here on earth. I'll leave you alone with your work you were right earlier I do like living here free."

With that Urd left Keiichi to his thoughts and work.

~~~*~~~

Later that night after dinner had been eaten as Bell and Keiichi were doing the washing up, Urd told Skuld about the conversation that she had, had earlier in the day.

"YOU WHAT??????????????????????"

"Calm down Skuld it's not as if you couldn't have seen the two of them getting closer and closer together."

"I meant how you could suggest that to him, you know he'll ask and she'll say yes!"

"You just don't want Bell to be happy do you; have you seen how she gets when she hasn't seen Keiichi all day? Let her be happy and not want her to go back to the heavens with you just to make yourself happy, besides which you're addicted to ice-cream and you can't get that in the heavens."

"I am not addicted to ice-cream," said Skuld defensively, "besides which it's not been here on earth that's the problem its Keiichi he's such a jerk."

"At the end of the day its not your choice its Bells and knowing Keiichi it'll take him a while to ask so you've got time to get used to the idea of having Keiichi as a brother in-law. And I think the two of them are good for each other so I don't want to see you doing anything against Keiichi or I'll think of something to do to you."

"As long as it's not a ban on ice-cream!"

Meanwhile in the kitchen…

"Bell have you ever thought about what your wedding would be like?" said Keiichi with a plate in his hand as he dried it.

"Yes I dreamed about it a lot when I was younger why is it something that you're thinking about?"

"No it's just that Megumi has started looking at wedding dresses, though I'm not sure why since she hasn't got a boyfriend, and I was wondering."

"Well I've always dreamed of getting married in a church here on earth they are so much more beautiful than the churches that we have in the heavens, and I've always wanted a white dress with bead and lace work down the back and train although I'm not sure what pattern to have them in."

"Is this something all girls think about cause that is remarkably well thought out?"

"I think most girls think about getting married because it's a once in a life time occurrence to wear such a beautiful dress."

After this brief exchange, an uncomfortable silence lasted until Megumi came in.

"Moshimoshi"

"Hello Megumi would you like a drink," replied Bell as Keiichi rolled his eyes at his sisters' presence in the room.

"That would be lovely thanks"

"Keiichi says you've been looking at wedding dresses," this comment made Keiichi turn a lovely red colour with embarrassment.

"Yeh I have been but a girls got to dream even if I don't have anyone. Anyway haven't you thought about what your going to wear for your wedding, if not for yourself haven't you decided what Keiichi is going to be wearing?"

By this time, Keiichi had made a discrete retreat out of the kitchen to the study so he could carry on doing his work.

~~~*~~~

Sitting in the study Keiichi started thinking seriously about what Urd had said to him earlier, which was a bit of a problem since he was trying to get some work done. However as usual he could not thing of anything but Bell. Which was made worse because of what Urd had said and the conversation with Bell in the kitchen and the way her eyes lit up when she started talking about her dream wedding, he started to think of married life with her.

But first he needed to ask her to marry him which, given his track record of showing affection to her in public was rather poor, (actually that was putting it mildly in the two years together he had never kissed her in public).

However having deciding that he was going to ask Bell to marry him he scribbled down a list of things that he needed to do before he popped the question and went to bed.

Now given that Bell did not expect that the conversation that she had, had earlier with Keiichi would come to anything went to bed returning to those dreams about getting married. Where she slept with a smile on her face as see dreamed about been married to Keiichi.
