A/N - ;-; ... •-• ... GO READ THE FRIKIN STORY. Meow.

(This happened immediately after Chapter 15)
Aphmau's PoV

Malachi and Levin were sound asleep (afternoon nap) as Garroth and I took a stroll around the village. We ended up at the small clearing (I assume you know where) and to my surprise, someone had planted cherry blossoms.. And there was a note?
'Dear Garmau,
If you find this note, then you're probably doing something absolutely adorable! Like on a date, or -the handwriting changed- well, Donna, Molly, and Kawaii~Chan planted some cherry blossoms for Aphmau~Senpai and Garroth~Kun to make it more romantic, plus, when anyone else feels like coming, it'll look like so Kawaii! (>v<) -the handwriting changed- We hope you like it, and spend lots of time here!
Enjoy, Garmau!
-Donna, Molly, & Kawaii~Chan <3'

"Oh, not this again!" Garroth read.

"It's fine, besides, ITS SO KAWAII!"

"You and your cuteness," He kissed my head. The clearing already had a thin layer of petals, so it looked OH SO KAWAII! Garroth (or Garroth~Kun) and I sat down and the scene came back. (BUT MORE KAWAII >v<) Garroth fiddled around with a strand of my hair while I laid on his lap, and the smell cherry blossoms filled the air. At one point, I got up, and and we laid on the ground, watching the clouds. And um... I kind of fell asleep, my head on his chest, us holding hands, and the delicate pink petals surrounding us.

I felt something tickle my nose as I drifted back into reality. Then I remembered what happened.

"Hey princess, you awake?" Garroth smiled, and kissed my cheek.

"Yeah I'm awake,"

"Hi mom!"

"Ah!"

"It's me, Malachi!" And there stood my ghost son.

"Were you spying on us?"

"Only from a few minutes ago, but you and dad are awfully cute,"

"The ghost is right! AWW!" Donna came up behind Malachi. "I wanted to ask you something, so I came to your house, but Zoey was up with Levin, and Malachi was awake, so..."

"What did you want to ask?" Garroth got up, giving me a hand. "Wait, is it the issue with calling me Lord Garroth instead of Garroth?"

"Yeah, no one in the village is sure,"

"Call me what you like, like what you do with Aphmau."

"Ok!"

"Oh, we love the cherry blossom trees, by the way," I added.

(I'm bored)

Garroth's PoV

Aphmau went back home to make dinner while I headed over to the guard tower.

"What's up Garroth?" Laurance said once I climbed up. Dante, Laurance and Nicole (Nicole was up here sometimes) Stood at the top, as I arrived.

"I have to tell you something," I started.

"O'Khasis?" Dante guessed.

"Training? New recruits?" Nicole looked expectant.

"Relax, guys, I've seen that look on his face, it's about Aphmau." Laurance, he knows me like a brother.

"How do you know?" Dante raised an eyebrow.

"Not time for that, anyway, " I started to tell them "The anniversary of Aphmau's coming to Phoenix Drop is in 3, no, 4 days, and I wanna throw a party."

"How do you know?" Laurance asked. Most of the guard (or all) of Phoenix Drop has not been around Aphmau as long as I have, they either came here by chance, or Aphmau brought them here from an adventure.

"I remember most things from my beloved, how she came, how her heart is big enough for anything and anyone, she can talk to wyverns, and heck, I even remember the day she got Thorgi,"

"You love her?" Dante smiled.

"With all my heart. (AWW) I liked her from the start, even before green-eyed, bright orange haired Laurance did."

"Hey!"

"Heh, and now that I'm married to her, everything I do is with her. she loves me, I love her, and nothing could be better... And um... Laurance?"

"Yeah?"

I whispered something in his ear.

"*GASP* ARE YOU SERIOUS? THATS AWESOME! YOU WANNA-"

"SHHH!" I put a finger over his mouth.

"THIS CANT BE A SECRET ITS THE FREAKING FACT THAT YOU WANNA-"

"SHHH!"

"BUT-"

"SHH! Just keep the secret, because I'm starting to regret telling you."

"Fine."

"Anyways, I want to throw a party, and I want it to be extravagant. I'm planning to tell everyone else tomorrow."

"So it's a surprise party?" Nicole piped up.

"Yup. I want everything to be perfect."

"The perfect day for the anniversary of the day you met the woman of your dreams." Laurance teased. And it worked, I turned pink, and walked out.

***

"I'm home!" I didn't wanna risk calling Aphmau 'honey', besides, it's only been a day since our wedding.

"There's steak in the fridge!" She must be upstairs.

"Ok!" I wasn't all that hungry, so I came up to the bedroom.

"Not hungry?" Aphmau walked in.

"Nah,"

She sat on the bed with me, while I thought about what I said to Laurance. 'I.. I want... I want to have a kid with Aphmau..' And then he started screaming. I twisted my wedding ring around my finger as I thought.

We sat there in silence, both of us stuck in our thoughts. Then I noticed something. She touched a small spot on her shoulder. The only scar she had. From the war with O'Khasis. (Not like at the wedding, like- JUST PLAY ALONG)

"What if- what if I'd died? In the war with O'Khasis." She says after a long period of time. (WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY PRESENT TENSE AND PAST TENSE?) I remember now. That scar. You could see the bone. She would've either bled to death, or the blood poisoning would've gotten to her lungs, heart or brain. We worked for days, maybe even a week, just to get her to heal. I suffered, some nights, I would just go somewhere private, take off my helm and cry, for hours and hours. My nightmares consisted of Aphmau's death, and some nights, I'd spend the whole night by her side while she was unconscious. I would stroke her hair, and sometimes, she even smiled.

"Then I would have nothing to come home to. No one really cares about me, if you died, I'd have nothing. You're my world, my life, my hope, I keep it together, because I think of you." (AAWWW OMG SO CUTE... THIS IS WHY I LOVE MY JOB.)

"Aw, Garroth..."

All that is true, there isn't a thing that I could insult her on. The way she wants to help, even back then, when she wasn't the lord of this village, she did everything she could to make this place look better. Or the way her sweet strawberry scent makes me go nuts, how she never scowls when she sleeps, or when she's scared, she curls up into me, lays her head in the crook of my neck, and smiles when wrap my arms around her. I smiled as she curled up on the bed, and I laid down while she made herself comfortable in my arms.

"I love you Garroth," she murmured.

"I love you too, princess, I love you too." I looked down and my princess had already drifted off to sleep, a smile still present on her face.

A/N - I LOVE GARMAU AND IF U SHIP LAURMAU THEN SOMETHING IS WRONG W/ YOU. MEOW.
