I know this is short! And not that good, it's mainly to help with the story.
Kel woke up in a rather large bed. She felt an arm draped across her middle. She turned around to watch Dom sleep peacefully. He looked so defenceless and beautiful she smiled. She kissed him lightly to wake him up.
He opened his eyes "Hello wife" he said.
"Hello husband" she replied.
'I like how that sounds"
"Me too!"
He grinned and then that look came into his eyes. She knew that look well. It was the look that informed her he was thinking about doing some very fun and interesting things.
A few minutes later they laid back on the bed panting.
"I could get used to this" he said.
"What? We did that before we were married anyways!" she said.
"No!" he replied with a laugh "we never had morning sex"
She thought back and realized it was true. "Well, we should do it more often"
"I agree" he informed her.
The bell sounded announcing it was mid-morning.
"Maybe we should go?" she asked.
Dom raised an eyebrow "It's the day after our wedding, I don't think anyone expect to see us for a while yet"
She laughed at that. She was remembering Neal's wedding. Neal and Yuki had been in their rooms until supper time. "Let's explore our lovely suite" she said. They got out of bed to look around the two study. Kel called shots on the bigger of the two.
The sitting room was rather large, which meant they could entertain people if they wished. However Dom seemed more interested in the comfy couch. He flopped down upon it and smile THAT smile again. She laughed, as she joined him. "Do you ever think about anything else?" she asked.
"No, do you?" he asked against her neck.
"No" she answered as he kissed his way down her stomach. She felt his smile as he kissed her bare navel.
They then indulged in a long bath which mainly consisted of lots of splashing and kissing.
Around noon they decided to make an appearance at the mess. After all they were both getting hungry. As they got dressed, Dom kept tickling her, making the task way harder.
Ever since he had learn she was ticklish, he always tickled her until she was on the floor breathless and writhing from laughter.
As soon as they reached the mess hall Wolset yelled "Already out of bed?"
Everyone laughed at that. Kel went to go sit by her friends while Dom got them food. "So Kel, how does it feel?" asked Merric.
"It feels great! Now he's stuck with me for the rest of his life!" she replied, straight faced.
"You aren't that bad" said Dom, while he set the food in front of her and sat beside her.
"Thank you" she replied. "Truthfully, it doesn't feel that much different. It's just more official"
"You are so not romantic" said Shinko.
Laughter met that statement. It was true after all.
"By the way everyone" started Roald "tonight there is a gathering in our suite, you are all invited! We have some news to celebrate" he said.
"What is it?" asked Neal. No one but the ladies and Roald knew what the news was.
"You'll learn tonight"
Everyone was gathered in the Prince's room. He stood up, demanding everyone's attention. His parents were regally sitting down beside the princess.
"I'd like to announce that Princess Shinkokami and I are expecting a child" he said to the assemble people.
Thayet hugged Shinko and asked how far along she was. "I'm about three months in, your majesty" she replied with a smile.
Jon clapped his son on the shoulder, pride radiating from him. He was going to be a granddad.
Everyone congratulated the happy couple. Yuki came up beside Shinko with one year old Kely and said "Our children will sure be good friends!"
"I hope so!" They then looked at Kel who was talking quietly to her new husband "And her children when they come along" said the princess with a smile.
Neal came toward the princess "May I?" he said, his hand glowing green.
When she nodded her gently laid his hand against her stomach. Roald had, by this time, came to join in his wife and stood behind her.
"Congratulation your highness on a lovely healthy child" he said.
"Thank you Neal" said the Prince as he laid a hand on his wife's shoulder. The joy was evident on his face. "Can you tell the sex of our child?"
"Not yet, in a few weeks" he replied. "You'll see Roald, that child will mean the world to you, even as he or she cries in the middle of the night. A child is one of the greatest treasure"
"Wow, wisdom from Neal's mouth" said Alanna who had listened to Neal "Weird"
"Pfft" said Neal "I am misunderstood! Everything I say is wisdom!"
"AS soon as the child is born, we shall go on progress, so that the kingdom may see and know, my heir's heir!" said Jonathan.
Raoul groaned at that. "Not another one" he whispered under his breath.
"Think of all the jousting you'll do!" replied his wife "Don't think about the balls! And this one should be better! I mean you would have me to ward of the mothers!"
"Thank god I got another squire! I don't think I would have a managed the other grand progress without Kel"
Alan, the lioness son and Raoul's new squire, gulped at that. He knew that Kel had done so well, and he felt like she had raised the bar very high for himself.
The party was great. Kel had a lot of fun with her friends and Dom. She hadn't expected to have another progress. But the more she thought about it the more it made sense. The Royalty needed to repair the kingdom and they needed to see the fief and lord after the war. It was a perfect opportunity. But that also meant that her, Raoul and the King would have a confrontation about who would be there. Raoul would say that Kel should handled the progress, while she would say he should since he was more acquainted with the king. In the end, she thought, both her and Raoul would most likely go.
That night, for the first time, Dom did not have to sneak around to come to bed with her, which was a definite perk.
Thank you for all the reviews! and thanks to everyone who pointed out mistakes. And i just realized that the wedding had a twilight-ish style. It was completely unintended. Let me know what you think!
