Techie melts into her embrace, grateful. “Th-thank you, Sarah. Dragging all this n-nasty stuff up makes me feel like sh-shit. I don’t want to think about the p-past anymore!” He clutches at her as though his life depends on it.
“Anywhere is good, but Endor s-sounds awesome!” He takes Sarah’s hands in his and kisses her palms. “What kind of dress do y-you want?” Techie’s overactive imagination is already supplying a few ideas, but he’d rather hear what Sarah has to say.
Techie melts into her embrace, grateful. “Th-thank you, Sarah. Dragging all this n-nasty stuff up makes me feel like sh-shit. I don’t want to think about the p-past anymore!” He clutches at her as though his life depends on it.
Sarah blushed and cupped his cheeks “then maybe we could think about the future, fiancé” she giggled, giving him a passionate kiss.
This brightens him up considerably. Between enthusiastic kisses, Techie asks, “What do you want our w-wedding to be like?”
“W-wait… Sarah? There’s something I h-have to say, first.” He shifts his weight from leg to leg, nervous. It’s too cold in the room without her warm skin up against him.
She turned on her heels and smiled. “What is baby?” She had to admit to herself, she was scared on the inside. What if he wanted to break up?
“I, um.” Techie froze, staring wide-eyed at his feet helplessly, like a malfunctioning droid. But he had to do this, had to say this! Techie gathers all the scattered atoms of courage he holds in his twiggy body, just enough to say:
“S-Sarah? Will you, uh, m-marry me? I don’t h-have a ring- but! I c-can get one!”
“W-wait… Sarah? There’s something I h-have to say, first.” He shifts his weight from leg to leg, nervous. It’s too cold in the room without her warm skin up against him.
Techie hummed along, not quite accurately but as best he could. Having Sarah so near to him and safe was heaven. For years his default state of being had been summed up by “terrified” and finally, finally, that didn’t apply anymore.
Thanks to Sarah, and to so many other kind people he’d met along the way, Techie had begun to build a comfortable, peaceful life. And he’d never before been happier!
Holding his short girlfriend’s ear close to his heart, Techie embraces her and follows her steps awkwardly, eyes flickering to her face for approval every few seconds. “I like this song,” he whispers, eyes whirring as they refocus on her lips. “V-very soft.”
He followed after her lips once they parted for air, eyes fluttering open. “I don’t like my t-tattoos… I didn’t want them from the start. B-but… I like the idea of getting one because I want to. Mark my body for myself… if that makes sense.”
Sarah smiled, “I want one too…maybe, if you want, we could get matching ones?” She bit lip, afraid he may not like the idea.
“Awesome!” he gushes. “What kind of tattoo w-would you want to get?” Techie didn’t have any ideas yet, and he hoped maybe Sarah could come up with something.
“What about this one?” She showed him one with the heart monitor heart beat wthag stretches across a couple’s hands. She blushed , never thinkin she’d ever get a tattoo, let alone one matching the love of her life.
Techie’s grin went from ear to ear! He turned the datapad to get a closer look at the design and then leaned back in his chair, hands covering his blushing face. “It’s perfect! We’re g-gonna match!” he exclaims to himself, awestruck.
Sarah giggled and then playfully kissed his nose, “I love you, bill Huxley!” She Gave him a nip to his neck. “I love you so much” she blushed
Techie had reached the limit of the teasing he could take! “Saraaaah,” he whined playfully, putting his hands over her shoulders to stop her from peppering more kisses on him. “If you keep b-being so cute and distracting me, m-my spaghetti will get c-cold!”
Sarah giggled. “Ok baby, let eat!” She grabbed a forkful in her mouth. “And I have another surprise for you when we’re done with this”
Excited by what the rest of the night will hold, Techie shovels spaghetti into his mouth at an alarming rate, eating like a raccoon digging through a garbage can. When he looks up at his girlfriend, there’s sauce all over his face and he’s grinning big. “All done!”
Sarah couldn’t help but let out a laugh. She got up and grabbed a napkin to help clean his face. “There you go, silly boy” she said and gave him a peck on the cheek.
She took a deep breath, cheeks red. She turned on some romantic music and held out her hand for techie to take. “Would you like to dance with me?” She asked as the song ‘hero’ started to play
While unsure if he possessed any dancing skills (nobody had ever seen him in action, so there was no critique to be taken into account), Techie stood up and took her hand. “Can you show me what I sh-should do?”
He followed after her lips once they parted for air, eyes fluttering open. “I don’t like my t-tattoos… I didn’t want them from the start. B-but… I like the idea of getting one because I want to. Mark my body for myself… if that makes sense.”
