It was Christmas, you and Ghost had been together for a long time, and today was the day you met his adoptive parents for the first time.

You don't know much about his real parents, only that Simon's father was cruel, but that was all you needed to know to never bring it up.

His adoptive parents, however, were angels in person. He only said good things about them, including that they accepted and supported his decision to join the military.

When you parked in front of the house, it didn't take long for you to be let in. A nice older couple welcomed you with open arms and treated you like part of the family.

You had a lot of fun. First you ate something, then you played a few board games, and then it was time to exchange gifts.

His parents gave you hand-knitted sweaters, you gave them a bottle of wine and something to help around the house... Simon gave you a beautiful necklace, and then it was time for your gift to Simon.

When he unwrapped the box and opened it, he stood still, and you could tell his heart skipped a beat. Inside was a positive pregnancy test.

His eyes lit up after His brain processed it, and he immediately looked at you. In the background, his mother started to cry. Even though she was only his adoptive mother, she was overly excited about the fact that she was going to be a grandmother.
