"I think he's going to propose to me," Lydia blurted out, watching Adeline raise a brow.
Adeline was drinking tea and reading a book that she noticed Adelia was reading. But Lydia's sudden remark made her pause.
"We've been having talks about getting married," Lydia admitted, shyly tucking strands of hair behind her ears. She was always confident and powerful in front of others, but never in front of Adeline.
With Adeline, Lydia felt content to be herself. She didn't have to put up the front. It was tiring being in control all the time. With Adeline, Lydia was always at peace and relaxed.
"And our future…" Lydia trailed off.
"Future?" Adeline echoed, putting the teacup down and shutting the book. She was sitting in the chair and peering delightfully at her friend.
"Like the possibility of having children," Lydia mumbled. "Though, it'd be difficult since I'm human."
