Xavier smiled when he saw Crysanthe... He waited counting down... as soon as he could he grabbed her hand.

She blushed. The priest started the ceremony. At the end he joined them together in matrimony. He told Xavier he could kiss the bride. She blushed

Xavier slowly lifted her chin and pulled her lips to his, "mine, my bride, my wife, my love..." he moaned into the kiss.... He kissed her passionately not holding back until someone cleared their throat.

She was blushing the whole time he kissed her. When he pulled back she looked down.

Crysanthe's father looked at them. " We have a carriage that will take you to your new home. It borders on both of our lands. You will live there until further notice."

"Until further notice? And why would we listen to your laws now that we are together?" Xavier asked holding Crysanthe close by her waist. "We will choose where we live and when we inherit the kingoms we will reconsider." Xavier answered, "Does that sound agreeable to you darling Crysanthe?" He turned his full attention to Crysanthe.

She looked at him. " Oh....uh." she said. "Whatever you say Xavier." she looked at him. She didn't know what to say. "Where will we live if we don't take the place they are giving us"?"

"I never said we wouldn't just that we might not leave it when they want us too..." Xavier kissed her lightly again and led her to the carriage that was waiting for them.

She saw that trunks of their things were on the back of the carriage. "Well don't they think of everything." she said. She then got into the carriage, helped in by Xavier as he then climbed in, next to her. Once the were in, the carriage started moving.

"More then everything," Xavier stated pulling Crysanthe into his lap, "They already have the damn castle furnished... almost three years ago." He kissed her again more passionately, "I missed you. It's been a very long month... how are you feeling?"

" I'm fine." she said. " I was sick a few weeks ago, but that pretty much passed." she said after he kissed her.

Xavier paled, "You're sure..... are you alright now?" He inspected her carefully praying she was back to perfect health.

" In the mornings I would get nausated, but I figured it was a cold so I didn't tell anyone...lest they become worried and postpone the wedding."

Xavier closed his eyes, "Just the mornings?" His voice seemed weak as he thought about the options.

She nodded. "yes, but it lasted for about a week then stopped. I'm fine now." she said

"So... just the mornings... for only a week? As if possible morning sickness? Like in pregnancy?" His hand lightly touched her stomach as his eyes poped open. He couldn't believe the thought. He stared at her waiting for an answer, preferably not pregnancy.. at least for now. He didn't know if he would be able to wrap his head around this idea.

She blinked at him and then stared down at his hand when it touched her stomach. " Pregnant?" she said. " I don't know, I guess it could be possible. That nausea could have been morning sickness...do I look bigger to you?"

Xavier rolled his eyes, "No.... and you wouldn't after just one month..." He kissed her again, holding her close. Breaking the hiss he whispered, "It's probably just me over reacting...."

She looked at him. "What if I am?" she asked. " Do you not want a baby?" she wondered. " I'm sure I can find a way to rid of it.." she said sadly.

Xavier placed a finger over her lips, "You will not get rid of any child of mine... ever. Understandable?" He would not falter on that point, his children were her children. If.. when they had children he would care and love them, no way around that. And his mother would have his head if he let her get rid of their children.

She looked at him. " Okay so if I'm pregnant then we keep it?" she said. " And take care of it.." she put her hand on her belly. " Part of me wishes I am...the other part wishes I am not....I don't think I'm ready to raise a child."

"Well personally I believe you are, but lets not fret. Noting is sure yet, until a child is brought into this world, it will not be sure." Xavier tightened his grip around her lightly as the carriage came to a jolting stop. Apparently he knew that was going to happen, "Now... my dear, beautiful, blushing bride... are you ready to come home?"

She looked around the door of the carriage and looked at the castle that loomed ahead. "Dear ...Goddess" she breathed. " That place is huge!" she said and stared up at the stone castle that was there.

"Yes...and I'm told the master bedroom has a balcony which overlooks the mile long gardens.... by the way." He swept her up into his arms, "What would you like to see first? The kitchen? The gardens? The dining halls? How about the ballroom? Or we could always go strait upstairs....." Xavier stated winking at Crysanthe.

She eeped when he picked her up. " Um.....I wouldn't mind going to the bedroom, but...not for what you are hinting at. I'm actually tired and wouldn't mind a nap." she said. " If you don't mind."

He nuzzled her neck, "Not at all.... Men, get the bags, just place them in the front hall I'll deal with them later." With that Xavier carried Crysanthe carefully though the giant oak doors and up the grand marble staircase. He walked down the hallway and though the double maple doors. He stopped just inside the room so Crysanthe could take it all in. The floors were oak, and the walls as well, strait ahead double french doors lead out to the balcony which did indeed overlook a grand garden of many colors. There was a very large canopy bed on the east wall and a door on the west wall which probably led to the bathroom. Xavier gently sat Crysanthe on her feet, still holding her hand, "My lady, your bedroom waits."
