"It's what I want and I'd even let you convert me now if you wanted." confessed Dirt as he pulled down the collar of shirt to make as much of his neck visible.
"Umm, well ah." started Val rubbing the back of his neck trying to think of what he wanted to say and how exactly to say it.
"I believe what he means is lets just wait until after the wedding before anyone does any bitting." explained Val's mother.
"I see," replied Dirt letting his shirt return to it's normal place before asking, "I take it you're both fine with us getting married then? Are you hoping I take Val's name?"
"I was a bit hesitant at first but now yes I'm proud of my son for being brave enough to break an old outdated tradition. As for who takes who's name it doesn't matter to either of us and it is completely up to the two of you on what you will choose." replied Val's father with a smile.
"I see." sighed Dirt as he looked down at his plate to think.
