Underneath the covers were a pair of lover spooning each other as the moon light slip inside the room. The man with light blue hair gently ran his fingers through her (hair color) locks as she lay down, wearing his shirt, on his arms.

A soft smile way its way on his lips like it could not be helped, brushing off the lost strand of his wife's hair away from her peacefully sleeping face before moving his arm on her waist, keeping her close to him as possible as he let out a yawn, gently closing his eyes but not before saying.

"I love you"

One dared to interrupt the moment between these two people inside their shared room, in contrast to its usual neatly appearance, clothes were long forgotten on the floor as their steady breaths filled the room. It was quiet and peaceful.

Then the woman opened her iris revealing a pair of (eye color) iris, blinking a couple of times as if trying to grasp the situation before she stir in her position. Looking up to see her husband peacefully sleeping and keeping her in his arms.

It hasn't been at long since they rested after their first night as husband and wife, it was probably the reason why she woke up having to sleep lightly.

Suddenly, you felt like you needed a fresh air. Causing you to cautiously and carefully moving the arm of your husband off of your waist only to have him frowning in his sleep causing you to stop for a moment. Only to proceed once he seem to have settled down on his new position.

Going off the bed, you make sure to grab a robe to keep you away from the cold during this hour before carefully sliding off the door giving you access from the veranda of your new manor in one of the secluded places of the capital.

"Oh dear"

You spoke once you went out only to be greeted by a cold wind breeze, sakura blossom brushing off into your cheeks caused by the breeze

About to catch it but with a pair of arms warped around your waist, head resting on your shoulder.

"That was fast"

"It wasn't that long since I fell asleep, I think I woke up the moment you slide the door open"

He let out a yawn, eventually snuggling close to your neck, leaving you butterfly kisses

"What are you doing outside My Love? It's cold, besides aren't you tired? I think I went pretty hard earlier, forgive me Love"

"I'm just thinking about some things"

"Is that why you seems out of it for the past few days? Would you mind telling me?"

Hearing his gentle voice, how could you not?

"I was just thinking about our parents"

You replied to his concerns

"I was wondering how they would think of us right now"

You added

"They'll be proud"

He answered causing you to turn around to look at him with a confuse look on your face but he was just looking at you with a smile

"They had a wonderful daughter and in law who went against the decree, give birth to a wonderful son. Love me for who I am, who woukd not be thankful for that? Have a little more confident about yourself My Love"

He spoke, holding both of your cheeks with his hand before giving you a kiss on the forehead

"I doubt that, your father didn't like me at all-"

"He does"

Ayato spoke

"He does like you, in fact he was looking forward into meeting you that day, but then your father said that you were sent faraway. We were shock, mother and father was really looking forward the time I introduced you as my girlfriend."

"That day when they had an accident, they were coming to pick you up after finally convincing your parents that it was alright for the two of us to be together, that they were not looking down to you at all."

He spoke caressing your cheeks

"If they were still alive right now, they will love you like their own daughter. They would be crying in joy to see their first grandchild"

He brush off the tears on your cheek

You don't even know you're crying, maybe it was just the tears of relief.

"Don't cry My Love, it breaks my hert"

He smile sadly as if he can't help it

But then you catch him off guard as you pull him down at the back of his head, his soft pair of lips meeting yours halfway as you pull him into a kiss.

"My Love"

He pant once you pull away

"You know wh-"

You cut him off, placing your hand on his chin, thumb hovering his lips

"Hush Darling"

You whisper in his ear

"Let me do the work tonight"

You chuckle, giving him kisses from his ears down to his neck

"And Darling?"

He then could not help but to gulp as you run down your thumb across his lips

"I'm forever thankful that day we met, it was the beginning of us and we don't even know"

He could not help but to get mesmerized by those (eye color) iris

"I love you"

Once again you went on your tip toes and pull him for a passionate kiss in which he replied, pulling you close to him trying to express the same feeling

He was really thankful that day, to that old almost dying tree that both caught up your interest.

Though he might have to admit, he fell in love with your eyes first because the moment his purple iris met a pair of (eye color) ones, he saw their depths and the other half of his soul.

He was really thankful, and he promised to protect you and your little growing family with all his might, with all his life.

No relationship is all sunshine, but two can share one umbrella and survive the storms together
