(TIME SKIP TO AFTER SCHOOL CUZ YEAH)
"Hi, Jerome! Hi Mitch!" I say happily, skipping into the house.
"Someone's happy. Have a good day at school?" Mitch laughs. I smile.
"Yep!" Jerome comes over to me and looks into my eyes.
"She's got a crush." He decides. I blush. "Wait what?!" I say. Mitch laughs.
"It makes sense. When Mitch developed a crush on me, he became really happy all the time, and he had this weird spaced out look in his eyes. You have the same look." He said. I blush.
"Well, maybe." I say quietly. Mitch smiles.
"That's awesome! What's his name?" He asks. "Or her." Jerome inturrupts. I giggle.
"Maya." I say softly, giggling a little. Jerome smiles.
"Well that's cool. Now get ready, we're going to the park." He says, winking. I beam. Freaking finally, Jay-Rome!
Mitch jumps up and down like a little kid. "I haven't been there in forever!" He says happily. I smile. "Awesome! I'll be back in about five minutes."
I run upstairs to my room and brush out my hair really quickly, hopping back down in record time.
"Okay, LEZGO!" I cheer happily. We go out to the car. Jerome smiles at me knowingly as we hop in.
(TIME SKIP TO WHEN THEY'RE AT THE PARK)
"We're here!" Mitch squealed as we parked. I laughed.
"It's just like our first date." Jerome says happily, draping his arm around Mitch. I smile. They're the most adorable couple ever!
Jerome pecks Mitch's lips, and a little girl notices. She asks her mother something, and she gives a look of disgust and walks over to us.
"Excuse me, sirs, but I don't think you should be making out, especially since you have a child here." She says angrily. I whimper and hang on to Jerome.
"It's okay, miss. They're my dads." I say, hugging him. She looks apalled.
"And you don't have a mother?" She asks. "No." I say. She turns on Mitch and Jerome again.
"You're raising a child like this? That poor girl is going to grow up gay just like you, confused about her gender." She replies. I feel tears streaking down my face. She reminds me so much of Claire. And it looks like Mitch is crying too.
"Jerome, I don't like this." He admits, holding on to his arm. The woman gives them a look of utter disgust as she continues to humiliate us.
"Please, stop it!" I cry out, hiding behind Mitch. The woman sighs.
"Honey, you know it's not right for two men to like each other that way, right?" She asks.
"It is right, miss. Love is love, no matter how you look at it." I say softly, wiping my tears away. It doesn't help that this woman is acting like I'm a six year old child. The woman looks angrily at Jerome and Mitch.
"Good job. You're raising yet another lesbian. We have enough gay faggots in this world to begin with." She snarls, stalking away. I sniffle.
"She's so much like Claire..." I whimper. Jerome tries to calm both Mitch and I down by hugging me and petting Mitch's hair soothingly. After a little while, we're both alright and we continue with our day. I notice the little girl yelling at her mother, and although Mitch and Jerome don't hear their conversation, I do.
"Mommy, why did you yell at them?"
"Because, sweetie, they aren't normal people. They're gay."
"They are so normal people! They just like other men! That's not bad!"
"Yes it is, sweetie. Men who like men and women who like women go to Hell."
"Well then I'm going to hell! Because when I grow up, I'm going to love girls too!" The girl spat. I couldn't help but look on with wide eyes.
This was not a child, this was a philosopher.
I tear myself from the scene and run after Mitch and Jerome. They're sitting on a hill by an oak tree that's pretty far away from the playground area.
"Look, Mitch." Jerome says, pointing to the sunset. We all look and see. I gasp. It's so pretty.
We watch for a few minutes until it gets dark.
"Fireflies!" I squeal all of a sudden, chasing after the bugs. Jerome helps Mitch up.
"Come on, Biggums!" He said happily, leaping in the air like a kitten and trying to catch one. Mitch rolls his eyes and joins us. We must look fucking crazy to some of the people watching us from the playground, but hey. That pretty much sums up our family.
We stop after a while, and Jerome looks at me knowingly. I take out my new Iphone and scroll through my songs. I giggle as I imagine Jerome proposing to Mitch to "What does the fox say" but tap the song he asked for, which is called Perfect Two.
"Biggums, we've been together for a year now, and I know I want to spend the rest of my life with you." He begins, smiling lovingly at Mitch.
"J-Jerome, are you saying what I think you're saying?" Mitch gasps.
"Yes, I am. Mitchell Hughes, will you marry me?" Jerome asks, getting down on one knee and pulling out the tiny black box. Tears of joy form in Mitch's eyes.
"Yes! Yes!" He cries out, flinging his arms around Jerome. Their smiles could turn night to day.
"KISS ALREADY!" I giggle. They look at each other and press their lips together. Once they pull away, Jerome puts the ring on Mitch's finger. I honestly have no idea how he could afford it. It has a red tinted diamond, and it's made of real gold.
"I love you, Mitchell Hughes." Jerome says, hugging Mitch. He snuggles into his shoulder.
"Right back at you, Jerome Aceti."
I smile happily. "I knew you guys were perfect for each other." I say happily. Mitch opens up his arms and invites me into the hug.
We stay at the park a little longer. Mitch and Jerome are simply sitting under the tree while I do kid stuff. Catching fireflies, climbing the trees, blah blah blah. Mitch keeps looking at his ring as though it will disappear.
Eventually Mitch falls asleep, and Jerome carries him to the car, while I follow him happily. My dads are getting married! Okay, fine I'll say it. Just once. My 'daddies' are getting married!
I let out a little kitten yawn and fall asleep in the car. I feel kind of bad for Jerome. He has to either wake up one of us or carry us both.
I wake up a few minutes later, seeing Jerome carrying both of us, one in each arm. I let my eyes close again. This has been the perfect day.
For once, Kelly doesn't taunt me with night terrors. I have the best sleep I've had since Mom and Dad died.
My life for once is happy.
Oh God! I finally wrote the proposal. It wasn't as special as I wanted it to be, but oh well. Good enough.
MultiGlitter, Out!
Wait a sec, for my older readers (talking to you ArcticHuntress and PinkyPigg) I'm gonna add my old outro.
I hope you guys enjoyed, and I'll see you later my Sparklers!
Did I do that right? I don't really remember. Oh well. Close enough. :3
Byeee!
