“You’re such a fucking sap,” Molly cajoled.
Yasha smirked and shoved her friend, causing him to stumble a bit on the street. He laughed as he regained his balance and turned around to face Yasha, walking backwards without regard to the other people.
“It’s true, darling,” he drawled with his own smirk.
Yasha felt herself flush and knew her face was red to the tips of her pointed ears. “She makes me happy,” Yasha said simply with a shrug and soft smile.
“Ugh,” Molly exclaimed, turning with a flourish that allowed Yasha close the small distance between them to allow them to walk side by side again. “Why?”
Yasha’s soft smile grew. “She’s strong. She’s really funny. She’s smart as hell. She’s honest,” Yasha said with a chuckle, “even if it hurts.”
“She’s an asshole,” Molly countered, to which Yasha laughed.
“I like that she’s an asshole,” Yasha said with a shrug.
Molly smirked at her. “You would.”
Yasha bumped his shoulder and he bumped hers in return.
“Anything else,” Molly asked after a few moments. “What else attracts you to the grumpy one?”
Yasha was silent for a while, hands shoved into her coat pockets. She was quiet for so long that Molly figured she wasn’t going to answer. But then, softly, Yasha said, “She makes me feel safe.”
Molly stared up at his friend. He knew exactly what that meant for her and how important it was. He finally realized that, to Yasha, Beau meant something so precious to her. Something Yasha had been looking for for years that Molly himself had tried to give her. Beau, to Yasha, meant home.
He huffed, his breath drifting up in front of him as steam in the cold air. He linked his arm through Yasha’s and pushed into her side. “You love her.” It wasn’t a question.
Yasha gave a small nod. “So much.”
Molly heaved a dramatic sigh. “Does this mean I can’t tease her anymore,” he asked with a pout.
Yasha chuffed. “She’d probably think you were sick if you didn’t bicker.”
“Well I am all about keeping up appearances,” he said with a self important sniffle.
Yasha laughed outright. “You’re an asshole,”’she said with all the affection she could muster for the tiefling. Which was quite a lot.
“Yes, I am,” he agreed happily. Then he smiled up at her. “But you like assholes. Remember?”
Yasha smirked down at him before kissing him on his horn. “Yes, I do.”

It was a rare event that Beau visited her parents. She hated doing it, mostly because of her father. But she went, at least once a month, just to see TJ. Beau’s disdain for her parents wasn’t his fault and Beau hoped, that by spending time with him that he wouldn’t pick up their shitty attitude. As the years trudged on, TJ, thankfully, didn’t seem to be anything like their father.
Instead, much to their parents’ chagrin, TJ had instead picked up his sister’s mannerisms, quick wit, and snark. And as a pre-teen, it was only getting worse. Or better, if you asked Beau, who encouraged him.
Despite this, their parents would allow TJ to visit his sister for a week or so, mainly during the summer while school was out. He’d pack a bag and all but run to her car when she showed up and throw himself at her.
Now they sat on the floor of Beau and Yasha’s living room, playing a racing game TJ brought with him. They were neck and neck, tied in their wins. This was the last race and as
Beau was poised for a victory, Yasha walked out of the bedroom and kissed the top of Beau’s head, which caused her to completely forget the game and crash into a wall as she turned her attention to her fiancé.
“I’m meeting Molly,” she said as she checked her purse. Yasha wore a sun dress, something she didn’t often wear, and turned to smile at Beau and TJ when he turned to look at her after crossing the finish line. “I’ll be back later. I was thinking burgers for dinner?”
TJ’s face lit up. “And milkshakes,” he asked hopefully.
Yasha smiled and walked over to ruffle his slightly curly and very shaggy hair. “Only if you let Beau win,” Yasha teased.
“Oh, nevermind then,” he said and turned back to the tv.
“You little asshole,” Beau said with a laugh.
“Beau!”
“What,” Beau asked defensively. “He knows I’m kidding!”
“I know she’s kidding,” TJ echoed.
Yasha sighed and bent to kiss Beau. “Behave,” she said as she headed for the door.
An echo of “No!” followed her out the door.
Beau and TJ smiled at each other as he picked a new game and Beau set her controller aside, content to watch him play.
“Dad says you’re engaged,” TJ said as he got up and shuffled through his games. He looked over at Beau as she relocated to the couch.
“Yuppers,” she replied. “I was gonna talk to you about that, actually.” She smiled at him and asked, “Want to be a ring bearer?”
“I can’t be your best man,” he asked with a grin.
Beau laughed and raised up her arm, flattening her hand, palm down. “Sorry, you gotta be be at least this tall.”
He glared and flipped her off. She only laughed harder which caused him to smile. “Sure, I can be a ring bearer.”
“Excellent,” Beau said. “Yasha will be thrilled I finally asked.”
“When’s the wedding,” he asked as he finished picking a game and came to sit beside his sister, picking up his controller on the way.
“Next fall,” Beau answered. “Yasha likes the colors.”
“Neat,” TJ replied. “You and Yasha have been together a long time.”
Beau chuckled. “You sound like my friends. They think it’s overdue.”
TJ shrugged. “Maybe they’re right.”
Beau shrugged back. “Eh, we got there in the end. All that matters.”
“You inviting Dad,” TJ asked.
“Well if you and Mom are gonna be there, kinda have to invite the old man, too,” Beau said.
“I could accidentally on purpose break his leg so he has to stay home,” TJ offered.
Beau laughed. “Then you and Mom would have to stay home and take care of him.” She gave him a sideways smile. “Thanks for the offer, though, little brother.”
“Anytime,” he said with a laugh. “So, who asked who?”
Beau smiled and flashed her left hand and waggled her fingers until TJ turned to look at the small blue diamond on her ring finger. “She did.”
TJ looked at the ring then up at is sister. “She has poor taste.”
Beau’s mood fell a bit. “Like you’re some ring expert.”
“Not the ring,” he said. “You.”
Beau made a squawking noise and shoved TJ’s shoulder. “Fuck you!”
He laughed as he fell onto his side. “Fuck you, back!” He never paused in his game.
TJ eventually sat back and smiled. “So,how did you know?”
“How did I know what,” Beau asked.
“How did you know she was ‘the one,’” he asked, laying his controller down to air quote.
Beau smirked. “Really want to know? It’s sappy shit.”
TJ shrugged. “I mean. I did ask.”
“Fair.” Beau repositioned herself and draped her leg over the couch arm. “I always thought she was hot, ya know?”
“She is very pretty,” TJ cut in.
Beau smirked. “I’ll be sure to tell her you said that.”
TJ whipped around to face Beau, his dark skin turning darker with a blush. “Don’t you fucking dare!”
Beau laughed and gently nudged him. “Don’t be a shit and maybe I won’t.” TJ pouted at her and Beau laughed harder. “Anyway. She’s always been hot. And she’s sweet as hell. A literal fucking angel, ya know?”
TJ was nodded like he did, in fact, know.
“But there was a moment, so fucking small, that sealed the deal,” Beau said with a dreamy sigh.
“What was it,” TJ asked, finally pausing his game and turned to Beau, wholly focused on her and the story now.
“We’d been dating for a few months,” Beau continued. “And while out doing some errands, we decided, on a whim, to stop at this antiques store. Nothing there caught my eye,” Beau said before quickly standing and heading over to a bookshelf next to the tv. It held books, of course, but also a few knick knacks. Beau reached for a small clay figurine of a dog, one of a set of five, and turned back to TJ.
“She bought this set of dog figures,” Beau said, a dopey grin on her face. “She had been so excited to have found them. As excited as if they’d been real dogs.” Still holding the figure, Beau walked back over to the couch and sat down and handed the dog to TJ to look at. “You don’t really remember, cause you were still pretty little, but Yasha used to be really standoffish. She was quiet and didn’t talk much.” Beau smiled at her brother. “You fell in love with her immediately, nearly forgetting all about me when we came to visit.”
TJ blushed at Beau’s words.
Beau smiled warmly at him. “That was one of the first times she really came out of her shell.” Beau’s eyes slid shut as she recalled the memory, a large grin on her face. “She was so beautiful in that moment.” Beau’s eyes opened but she didn’t seem to really see TJ in front of her, still lost in her memories. Then she blinked and her eyes focused. “It was one of the cutest fucking things I’d ever seen. The way she lit up, little brother. Brighter than the sun.
“That’s when I knew I would spend the rest of my life with her.”
She smiled at her brother, who simply stared back. He finally handed back the clay dog and nodded. “You were right.”
Beau took the figure and cradled it to her chest. “About what?”
“It really was sappy shit.” Then he smiled at her.
Beau launched from her spot and tackled him, lightly pinching his shoulder as she sat on him.
They eventually came apart, laughing and sweaty from their tussle. Beau put the figure back on the shelf, grateful it didn’t break, and sat back on the couch. TJ went back to his game and they were content in their silence.
Finally TJ said, “I’m really happy you have Yasha. And I’m happy she has you, too.”
Bea smiled and ruffled TJ’s hair. “And I’m happy you’re here, too. We both love you.”
“Ugh,” TJ groaned. “Stop.”
Beau laughed and turned back towards the tv, happy with how her life had shaped up to be.
