Question time! "Yes, dear?" she asked in a semi-mocking tone as she fluttered her eyelashes at him dramatically.
Hm... engagement party. That could be fun. "Well, I imagine my parents would probably appreciate us doing the proper thing. They already think I'm some sort of immoral heathen for moving in with you quickly and then for agreeing to marry you after less than a year," she said with a bit of a teasing smile. "Mum swore I had to be pregnant for weeks, said that was the only reason a woman in her right mind would agree to marry a man so quickly," she said with a laugh. If only her mother knew...
"It could be fun. We could have a classy sort of engagement party," she said, her secret passion for event-planning suddenly sparking to life inside of her. "Not, like, suit jacket classy, but just maybe shirt and tie kind of classy? Have cocktails and dancing. Invite our friends and family?" she said, smiling across the table at him. Truthfully, she had been dying to show Asher off to her friends and co-workers.
Asher laughed as she talked about her parents...his parents wouldn't have minded, just the fact that Chloe didn't have an ounce of Greek in her, was what would have bothered them if they were here.
"Yes. Shirt and tie." Asher said nodding his head, making sure he got his word in. He liked to dress up every once in a while, but he didn't really care for suits or anything...he much rather wear a nice shirt and a tie.
"Sounds fantastic!" Asher told her giving her hand a gentle squeeze.
"Maudi should have something already lined out for food. Or at least some ideas." He laughed, he could just picture Maudi spending hours at night planning the food out to every detail.
