The most pleasing news

As Sunday rolls into the calender, the household was filled with fun baking and dancing and video games. Currently in the evening, the couple were busy playing Apex Legends on the TV while they munched heavily on homemade butter cookies. The couple were playing happily, until someone knocks on the door.

"Coming!" The only few people who don't use the doorbell was Charlie and Gerroto, ever since Ravine met them.

"Hey boys!"

"Ravine, I'll defeat your character!"

"Ah, you cheat!" Running back to the couch, the house smelling like sweet Christmas and vanilla welcomes the two guests who brought over some of their home-cooked food to share.

"Whoa, looks like you guys have plenty to eat! Lemme join too." Saying, Charlie waits for his turn for the next pvp as Gerroto goes into the kitchen in search of some of their cookies. They were his absolute favorite, only when Aaron gives a hand in the preparation too. If Ravine made them... Gerroto would know by obvious reasons.

"Whoa!" Charlie yells when Ravine betrays him and kills his character. Aaron vs Ravine was hot on the match as Aaron cheers loudly when he wins against her.

"Boys rock! Aye, aye!" Singing a musical victory tune, all three boys do a Russian dance together. Their victory dance made her forget about her losing, she dances along with them to the background music of the game while the characters were stuck in the lobby.

"Yeah! Okay... I'm a little tired now." Says the woman. After the celebratory mood dies down, Aaron fetches some plates and other cutlery as he begins serving the Chinese takeout on the plates. He also brings some aged white wine to sip along with the spicy food. It always hits the digestive system, but it's a great combo. Gives them an excuse to have a tub of dessert.

While eating, Ravine asks Charlie the reason for his sudden visit. Not to mention timeless, he often comes in the morning and stays through the evening, insisting to go back home before night hits.

"Well..." Charlie turns to Gerroto.

"Wait. You two blushing? What happened?"

"I uh... w-we..."

"Charlie, you're killing me. Just say it!" Getting impatient, Ravine yells at him a little as Aaron tells her to calm down.

"Let the man take his sweet time~ We will keep eating—"

"We're getting married soon."

"...."

"......"

"Yeah. I know it's shocking."

They see Ravine place her plate down on the table. She places her hands on her lap, looking at him. They knew what she was about to do.

"YOU GUYS ARE GETTING MARRIED.

FOR REAL?" She uses an exceptionally loud voice but in a monotonous way of addressing them. Gerroto begins to laugh as Charlie blushes profusely, he looks at his ring finger of his left hand and says.

"We're going to keep it real simple, but I want all three celebrations for the upcoming weeks. Let's say... destination wedding?"

"Sounds good, Charlie. Oh my God, you guys are fast!" Exclaims Aaron. Ravine was still in shock, in a happy state of shock that she couldn't help but hug her two best friends.

"I'm so fucking happy for you two! Oh my God... be haply forever together, alright?" Charlie chuckles at the words coming from an emotional woman.

"Yes ma'am."

The four continue to have a nice long chat when Gerroto approaches Aaron for something.

"A-Aaron," It was evident that the pills of his were wearing out. "Yeah bro, tell me."

"Can we go for a long drive while we can? You know he won't allow me to do t-things when we get married."

"Okay, haha sure! Let me get my car."

"Great." Informing the two they'll be going for a ride, the two get into the Audi and begin to hit the highway.

AARON'S POV

It was sudden for Gerroto to ask me for a long drive. It was out of the blue, but I accepted it. He says he got pills back at home, we decided to collect the pills as their home was on the way to hit the highway.

"Ah, I feel better now." He exclaims moments after taking the pills for his Autism.

"So, do you wanna talk about something Gerroto?" Aaron asks the male who looks at him with wide eyes.

"Oh come on, don't look at me like that! I know there's something going on in your head. Man to man, I can feel it." He whispers the last line. He drives slowly through the highway, night time was auctioned for heavy vehicles traveling from states to states.

"I'm... a little worried about spending my life with such an angel, Aaron. He's a normal  human being while I'm cursed with a disorder. I've seen him try to keep up with me, but what if he suddenly loses interest in me and deems me unfit for him? He can get tired of me, right?" Gerroto begins to rumble the words out in a monotone of his own.

The man stops the car to the side, he removes his seatbelt and looks at Gerroto.

"Gerroto, I'll say just one thing about love. If you're not being accepted by him, you wouldn't have come this far in your relationship. Being together for two years isn't a joke. It's a blessing. As for me, I showed Ravine the beastly side of me. Yes, she was afraid in the beginning but she's over it and I've changed for her too. As for you, your situation is different, but don't underestimate Charlie, Gerroto. He's that kind of a man who will fall more and more for someone who needs him. Tell me, are you insecure about your disorder?"

Gerroto looks at Aaron, tears swirl in his eyes a little before he pinches the bridge of his nose and nods.

"There's no reason to be. He loves you as you. And besides, I've got more flaws than you can see. Everyone born a little defective, don't you agree? Love is one such thing which makes the lives perfect. We were born imperfect so that love can exist. I hope this isn't going over you head." Says Aaron to Gerroto who holds his head down all through his convincing words.

"Yeah... I get it now. He loves me... for me. He loves me because I AM me."

"That's right." Aaron gently pats Gerroto's shoulder.

"Is there anything else you wanna talk about? We have the whole night for ourselves."

"Nope. Just that. Let's go back."

"Yes sir, as you wish to." The two men chuckle as they take a u-turn to get back home to their beloved.
