Ch. 24- Surprise proposal

*1 year later*

"Mommy," a little grey pooka says to me.

"Hi dear you have a good nap," I ask.

"Nappy," Attwell says as he claps his hands.

"You are so cute," I voice as I boop him on the nose.

"Uppey uppey," our son demands. I pick him up and bring him to his room. I sit him on the floor and sit down with him. I start to play with him with some of his toys.

I take out the box out of my pocket and show it to Attwell and ask "You think daddy is going to like this?" He nods excitedly and I add "You're going to help me, yea?"

"Help… mommy," Attwell yells excitedly and claps. His jumbled language is easy to understand when you've handled it for a year. Aster and I have taken turns teaching him words. Though I think thanks to his father he has picked up some curse words.

I leave Attwell to his toys and start fixing his favorite meal. Boy is Aster going to be surprised. Aster then comes back from fixing Easter things a few months early. "What's going on," he asks instantly as he comes through the door and smells his favorite meal.

"Nothing, just thought you deserved something special," I say towards his voice. He then comes and puts his arms around my waist.

"Where's our son," he asks as he kisses my neck.

"His room playing with toys I believe," I say.

"Mmm," he says acknowledging me. He rubs his head into my neck and I feel him nip in my neck.

"Aster," I say breathlessly.

"Yes my love," he says looking at me with lust.

"We can't," I say looking at him. He then sighs and gives me a look. He mouths later and kisses my neck.

He then goes towards Attwell's room and I hear Attwells and I hear Attwell's distinct voice say "Daddy."

I hear Aster say "Hi champ," and that's the last I hear of them for awhile.

I go back to fixing dinner and eventually I finish. "Boys dinner is ready," I call to them. I then place the plates on the table and put Attwell's own food on his high chair. Aster then comes out carrying Attwell and puts him in his high chair. Aster then sits down too. We eat together and every once and awhile we have to cohere Attwell to actually eat his food.

When we finish I take our plates in and I leave Aster to feed Attwell some of his food that he hasn't eaten yet, but just played with. I come out and see Aster smiling at our son and I watch them for a bit. He then notices me and smiles at me. He gets up and comes towards me, he then puts his arm around me and hugs me close. "Enjoying the show," he whispers hoarsely in my ear.

"Course our son is pretty cute. Add in you taking care of him it's perfect," I say looking at him. He kisses me suddenly and his tongue enters in my mouth instantly. When we separate I kiss him lightly on the lips. "Love you," I say leaning against him.

"Love you too," he says hugging me. I then go and take Attwell out of his high chair. I start cleaning it and I watch Aster play with our son. I then sit down and Attwell comes towards me.

Aster then lays down on the couch and relaxes after working on Easter things. I then take the box out and whisper to Attwell as I stand up "Go take this to daddy."

Attwell does and pulls on Asters paw. "Daddy," he voices.

"Yes," Aster says as he sits up and takes the box from Attwell. He examines it and then opens it.

As he opens it I get down on one knee and he stares at me with wide eyes. I then ask "Aster Bunnymund will you do me the honor of becoming more than my mate and being my husband?"

Aster then gets down on his knees with me and says "Yes. Of course how could I not?" He then kisses me quickly and I slip on the ring I got him. "Just so you know you beat me to it. I was going to ask as well." I watch him curiously as he goes to our room and brings a box back and I look at the ring he has for me. I look at the ring which has a silver band and a diamond shaped like a pumpkin that is a light pink color.

"It's beautiful," I say smiling at him. "How'd you know," I ask.

"Jamie," Aster says smiling at me.

"Of course," I mutter darkly.

"I made it both halloweeny and springy at the same time," Aster says.

"I noticed," I say looking at it again "it's beautiful. Thanks Aster."

"You're welcome my love," he says kissing my nose. I pick up Attwell and put him in his crib since he started to get fussy, and I noticed it was near his bed time. I walk back into the living room and lay down next to Aster on the couch. I feel him cuddle into me. The next thing I know I am in a deep sleep dreaming about an Easter wedding.

A/N: Not lots of time to plan this wedding, but if anyone can do it Nessy can. Also there is a second story and it is coming a long I promise. I'll update you guys when it is done. It is in the works now.
