As My Heart Dies-Chp113

[meanwhile, aftr staying for another couple of days to recuperate, Peepers n Brad bid Demurra and King Draykor goodbye before heading off to Brad's home planet Starbright. Before they knew it, another mth has passed before they finally arrived]

Peepers: [puts the ship on autopilot so tht it will locate a landing area before sitting bk, sighing as he caressed his baby bump which has gotten bigger again frm the trip]

Brad: (rested in his chair as well) ... (sighed to himself)

Peepers: [heard him sigh] Hotshot? Wat's wrong? Aren't u glad we're almost there?

Brad: Yeah... It's just, the whole thing with Demurra, I did expect it to be difficult and all...

Peepers: It did get difficult for a moment, bt everything worked out fine, didn't it?

Brad: (nod) Yeah it did, thankfully.

Peepers: Oof... [tried to adjust his seat bt felt so heavy, his baby bump being considerably bigger than before]

Brad: Everything alright? Perhaps maybe I should take over for a bit?

Peepers: It's OK, its set on autopilot, it'll find a landing spot soon. So, u ready to meet ur grandmother?

Brad: I think so... :(

Peepers: [sees his face] Umm... Should I be worried abt ur grandmother or something? (worry)

Brad: No, she's a sweet old lady. ^^;; But she can make a weapon out of anything in the kitchen if she felt the need to.

Peepers: Guess I can see where u got ur spunk from (giggle) Do... Do u think she'll like me...? I mean is she OK with u being with...well, a male? :(

Brad: (think) Well she is from the old times when it wasn't highly accepted, but we'll see.

Peepers: Wat abt ur grandfather? I mean, u said ur grandparents were the ones who told u tht ur parents died, so... do I hv to deal with him as well?

Brad: Yeah, he's pretty strong holding onto the old times, so...

Peepers: [looked dwn worriedly, caressing his baby bump, shaking a little frm nervousness]

Brad: (rested a hand on his shoulder) I'm here to protect you if they try anything, alright?

Peepers: [leaned his head against his hand, nuzzled him] I know u will, hotshot

Brad: :)

[they soon landed the ship on the nearest landing docks]

Peepers: [got off the ship n looks ard] So this is ur home planet. Kinda reminds me of Planet Earth at the 3rd galaxy, bt slightly more medieval

Brad: (nod) Mhm.

Peepers: Guess it explains ur thing abt prince b princess (giggle) Heh, nxt thing ur gonna tell me ur a prince [meant tht as a joke]

Brad: Heh, I'd wish.

Peepers: Wait, bt didn't Demurra said both ur families founded this planet? N she's a princess, so doesn't that make u...?

Brad: It does, but I didn't really live up to any expectations, you might say.

Peepers: Maybe it had something to do with ur past, ur parents n all...

Brad: I guess so...

Peepers: [sighed] Let's get this over with then [hailed a horse-drawn carriage]

Brad: (nod) (kept his fingers crossed) (yn)
