January, 2019

Mikkel blushed when Berwald asked to be his boyfriend. He could even see that the Swede was blushing. One word escaped Mikkel’s lips and that’s, “Yes.” Surprised, Berwald stared at him for a moment before hugging him. Someone… wants to date him? That thought alone made Mikkel blush more as he hugged Berwald. What’s more is that it’s another guy that wants to be with him. He wasn’t complaining, but it had caught him off guard.

February, 2019

As Mikkel read the Valentine’s letter left for him, he smiled and blushed. There was only one person that could’ve written him a letter this lovey dovey. And he just so happened to have walked through the door with a couple presents. Mikkel walked up to Berwald and wrapped his arms around the taller male. Berwald hugged him and smiled.

“Hi, beautiful,” Berwald said. This made Mikkel blush. “I’m not beautiful,” Mikkel said. “What are you talking about?” Berwald asked. “Of course you are.”

On the date of their one month anniversary, Berwald had gotten Mikkel a gift. The two met up at a restaurant.

March, 2019

Hands got hold of the back of Berwald’s shirt. Surprised, Berwald looked over his shoulder to see Mikkel half out of bed and with tears in his eyes. He’s also trembling. He could tell Mikkel needed him, so he sat on the edge of Mikkel’s bed and pulled his boyfriend onto his lap. Sniffling, Mikkel curled up to Berwald and rubbed his eyes. A hand gently ran up and down the Dane’s back as he was held close.

“No one’s going to hurt you, Mikkel. It’s just you and I here.” Mikkel buried his face into Berwald.

April, 2019

On the date of their three month anniversary, Berwald had come bearing another gift for Mikkel. When he found Mikkel, he put a necklace around the Dane’s neck, doing up the clasp. Mikkel touched the necklace in surprise. It seems to have a heart shaped gem on it. He looked at Berwald and smiled.

“It’s a moonstone,” Berwald said. “It’s good for soothing stress and emotional instability, as well as promoting love and positivity.” This had Mikkel blush a bit.

Berwald had taken Mikkel to the aquarium. He watched as Mikkel looked around in awe. Mikkel really is adorable and Berwald felt lucky that this is his boyfriend.

May, 2019

Berwald rushed to find Mikkel as the Dane made his way to work at the hospital. He’d forgotten their four month anniversary and he knew that the Dane would be upset about that. When Berwald found him, it had happened by chance and there are tears in the Swede’s eyes. Mikkel’s eyes were bloodshot and it looked like there was dried tear stains on his cheeks. He’d been crying as well. Berwald did apologize profusely for forgetting, but stopped when Mikkel hugged him. They felt a bit better after talking a bit and Mikkel had even let Berwald stay with him during his shift. At lunch break, Mikkel took Berwald to a nearby street vendor. As the Dane was ordering his food, Berwald had gotten to one knee. When Mikkel looked at the Swede, he saw the other holding up a small box that has a ring in it. This caught Mikkel off guard and he placed a hand over his mouth. He… he’s really proposing? Right now? Tears pricked the corners of Mikkel’s eyes.

“Would you do me the honor of marrying me?” Berwald asked. You’re perfect just the way you are. That’s right, Berwald had said that to him. No words came out of Mikkel’s mouth. Instead he just nodded. The ring was taken out of the box and put on Mikkel’s ring finger. The tears in his eyes started falling. Berwald stood up and hugged Mikkel. Said male hugged Berwald and clung to him, gripping the back of his shirt tightly. Other people who saw the encounter cheered for them. Wiping his tears, Berwald tilted Mikkel’s head up and kissed him. Mikkel kissed back with as much love as he could muster.

June, 2019

“I can’t believe our birthdays are during pride month,” Mikkel said with a smile. “I know,” Berwald said. “It’s perfect, just like you.” This made Mikkel blush. “I don’t think I’ll get used to you saying that.” Berwald smiled. “Good. That means I’ll get to see your adorable blush more often, then.” Mikkel’s blush darkened and he hid his face with his shirt. Berwald chuckled and hugged Mikkel. “You’re adorable.” Mikkel hugged him, glancing at the ring on his finger. He couldn’t believe Berwald had proposed to him. Or that he’d been taken to a pride parade.

The two of them ended up getting their faces painted with the pride flags that represent them. For Berwald, it’s the gay pride flag. Mikkel has the pan flag and the Demisexual flag. A kiss is pressed to Mikkel’s head.

July, 2019

Berwald had surprised Mikkel by coming over with not only roses, but a stray Norwegian forest kitten. Mikkel smiled and took both, letting Berwald in for a bit. The flowers were put in a vase with water before the kitten was taken to the vet. Poor thing has fleas and is dirty. When asked for a name for the kitten, the first thing that came out of Mikkel’s mouth is Artemis. Berwald waited in the waiting room while Mikkel took the cat back. Artemis was given a flea bath and as soon as she got out, she was clinging to Mikkel and wrapped in a towel. Mikkel smiled and gently towel dried Artemis. As he held her, she was given some shots.

August, 2019

Mikkel was at work when someone from the orphanage brought one of their little girls in. A little girl that, as Mikkel noticed, has a similar hairstyle as himself, but in Berwald’s color as well as glasses and purple eyes like Mikkel. As it turns out, she’s deaf and barely anyone can speak to her. Getting the girl’s attention, Mikkel signed to her, asking what her name is. Her eyes widened and she responded with Bitta. Mikkel had also gotten the feeling that she’s not like a normal human.

Berwald had walked in in an attempt to surprise Mikkel. Instead he was the one surprised to see his fiancé using sign language with a little girl. A soft sound escaped the Swede. Purple eyes of Mikkel look at him.

“Hej, sunshine,” Mikkel said. “I didn’t know you knew sign language,” Berwald said. “Oh, yeah. I learned it for situations like this,” Mikkel said. “This girl is deaf and knows both Danish and Swedish sign language. And she’s an orphan.” Hearing she’s an orphan pulled at Berwald’s heart strings. More so when Mikkel gave him the puppy dog eyes. How can he say no to that look? Especially when it’s Mikkel giving it to him.

After Mikkel got off work, Berwald and Mikkel had found themselves going through the process of adopting Bitta. The girl in question smiled brightly and clung to her new parents. Mikkel looked at her when the process was over and picked her up, hugging her. Bitta smiled more and hugged Mikkel. A happy sound escaped her.

September, 2019

The second child that Mikkel encountered at work is a seven year old boy by the name of Christian. A human boy that arrived with his uncle because his parents had passed away. The first thing Mikkel noticed is that the boy is trying to hide a couple bruises. He’d done that exact same thing more times than he can count. Purple eyes look at the uncle.

“Do you mind if I give him his check up on our own?” He asked. “Why?” The uncle asked. “Wouldn’t want any contamination, now would we?” Mikkel asked. The uncle huffed, but complied and left the room. Mikkel tried to ask Christian something for the boy to not understand. Then he tried in Danish. Christian sort of understood. Then he switched to Swedish and the boy understood him completely. So that was it. Language barrier. Mikkel tried to ask about the bruises, but Christian didn’t seem to want to answer. Not at first, anyway. Either way, Mikkel didn’t push him for an answer. Wanted to give Christian enough time and space to answer if he wanted to. As they went on with the check up, Mikkel did message Berwald and asked him to come over. Even told Christian that since his uncle wasn’t in the room this is a safe space for him.

When Berwald got to the hospital, he did ask which room Mikkel’s in and went to the room given. Once there, he saw someone standing outside and gave no thoughts to him. Upon entering the room, Berwald saw he was talking to a boy in Swedish. Aqua eyes of the boy look at Berwald. He hid behind Mikkel, peering at the taller male. That’s when Mikkel noticed Berwald’s there. A smile crossed his face and he stood up.

“What’s this about?” Berwald asked. “I have reason to believe the boy is being abused by his uncle,” Mikkel said. Berwald tensed a bit. “What did you see?” “He was covering bruises and refused to answer when I asked,” was Mikkel’s response. Berwald glanced at the door. “Yes, that’s him out there,” Mikkel said.

It hadn’t taken long for Berwald to end up taking the boy’s uncle to court. Mikkel was in the crowd, Bitta sitting next to him. In the end, the boy ended up being removed from his uncle. Now he would need a new home. Aqua eyes glance at Mikkel. What had he suggested? Christian being adopted by him and Mikkel. This made Mikkel’s eyes widen. The judge asked Christian if he would like that and Christian nodded. With that, they went through the adoption process. Mikkel and Bitta had joined Berwald and Christian at the front.

October, 2019

The first time Mikkel’s celebrating Halloween and he now has a reason to. At the moment, he had finished putting on his costume. It was something he was hoping Berwald would like. Berwald had helped Bitta and Christian with their costumes. Peter and Erland were trick or treating with Beck and his kids this year. When Mikkel walked out to find Berwald, he saw the Swede finishing helping Bitta with her costume. Bitta smiled when she saw Mikkel and a happy sound escaped her. Berwald looked to see Mikkel standing there nervously. He’s wearing a sexy bee costume. A faint smile crossed Berwald’s face and he blushed a bit, standing and heading towards Mikkel. Purple eyes of Mikkel look up at Berwald.

“You look great,” Berwald said, placing his hands on Mikkel’s waist and pulling him close. Mikkel placed his hands on Berwald’s shoulders. He smiled a bit. “Thanks.” He rested his head on Berwald.

November, 2019

Mikkel cried and clung to Berwald. He wanted to help Christian, but at the same time he knew the boy needed time and space before he opened up to them. He was the same way. A kiss is pressed to Mikkel’s head.

“I know, Mikkel,” Berwald said. “I know. But you know he needs time.” What neither of them realized is that Christian was peering in at them, so he saw Mikkel crying. The next day, when Berwald and Mikkel were preparing lunch for everyone, Christian joined them and caught Mikkel off guard by hugging his leg. This made the Dane pause and look down at him. A bright smile crossed his face and he gently placed a hand on Christian’s head. “Jag älskar dig, Christian.” Aqua eyes of Christian look up at Mikkel.

The following night, Mikkel was working on something when he heard a faint sound. Looking in the direction, he saw Christian standing there and he looked upset. Looking at him fully, Mikkel asked him what was wrong. The response he got from Christian was that he had a nightmare. Mikkel held his hands out to Christian. Christian walked to Mikkel and took hold of his hands. The two stayed like that for a while before Mikkel asked if Christian wanted to sleep with him and papa. There was a nod from Christian. Standing up, Mikkel took Christian to his and Berwald’s room, where Berwald looked at them. Mikkel explained that he had a nightmare and wants to sleep with them. Berwald lifted Christian onto the bed, where Christian got under the covers after crawling to the middle. Mikkel and Berwald laid on either side of the boy. Christian looked between the two and smiled a bit.

“Jag älskar dig, pappa. Jag älskar dig, far.” This made both Mikkel and Berwald smile. He loves them. “Jag älskar dig, Christian,” Berwald and Mikkel say.

December, 2019

This is the first Christmas Mikkel celebrated with others rather than by himself. Now, he’s engaged and a father. To make matters better, Berwald’s two kids Peter and Erland had moved in with them at this point. Peter had been more than happy to call him dad while Erland was taking a bit more time. He didn’t mind waiting for Erland to get used to him being with Berwald.

“Our wedding’s in a week,” Berwald reminded. Mikkel smiled and looked at the ring on his finger. In a week, that ring would be replaced by a wedding ring. He couldn’t wait until that happened.

New Year’s Eve

Wedding day. Mikkel couldn’t believe today’s the day he gets married to the love of his life. He could already feel the butterflies in his stomach. Bitta looked up at him and smiled. She’s dressed in a pretty white dress and holding a basket filled with flower petals. She’s the flower girl and her brother Christian is the ring bearer. Mikkel got to her level and she signed that he looks handsome. He smiled and thanked her.

Christian had been with his papa as he finished getting ready. Berwald also seems to have butterflies in his stomach.

As soon as Berwald saw Mikkel, he blushed. Talk about handsome. Bitta and Christian look cute as well. The two kids joined Eirik when they reached the end and Mikkel joined Berwald, taking the Swede’s hands.

As soon as midnight hit, that’s when Mikkel and Berwald shared their first kiss as a married couple. The crowd cheered for the two of them. Berwald picked Mikkel up bridal style and carried him out of the church. There wasn’t really much to the reception, considering they had four kids that needed to get to bed hours ago. So instead the happy couple went home with the kids and put them to bed after getting them ready.

As they sat on the couch together cuddling, Mikkel looked at the ring on his finger and smiled brightly, a loving look in his eyes. He’s now married to the love of his life and he couldn’t believe it.

“You’re my husband now,” he said, looking at Berwald with the same loving look. “You like saying that, don’t you?” Berwald asked. Mikkel nodded. “Husband.” “Well, I like hearing you say it,” Berwald said. “Good,” Mikkel said. “Because you’re my husband and nothing’s going to change that.” Berwald smiled, giving Mikkel a squeeze. “And I can’t believe I married someone so cute yet so handsome.” Mikkel blushed a bit and pointed at himself. “Me? I’m handsome?” Berwald nodded. “Ja, you are. Especially when you’re dressed up as you are.” That resulted in a kiss from Mikkel. Berwald gladly kissed back. Shortly after, Mikkel yawned. “Maybe we should go to bed,” Berwald suggested. Mikkel nodded. Berwald picked up Mikkel and carried him to their room.

In the morning, Mikkel woke to being curled up to Berwald. A smile crossed his face. He’s really married to this sweetheart. This is his husband now.

In the states, Christmas is celebrated on the 25th. This isn’t the states, though. This is Odense, Denmark, and in Denmark, they celebrate Christmas on the 24th. Same goes for in Sweden.

Bitta smiled as she danced around the tree with her family. Earlier, Julemanden had come and delivered presents with his nisse. What Bitta, Christian, Peter, and Erland hadn’t known was that it was actually Mikkel that had dressed up as him and given them the presents that were put under the tree. There was also presents from each family member to hand out. When they finished dancing and singing (Bitta hadn’t known they were singing, she could only see their mouths moving), everyone sat in front of the tree.

Erland was the first to hand out a present and it was the one he’d gotten for Bitta. He handed the present to the girl. She smiled and opened Erland’s present. Inside was a stuffed unicorn. Smiling more, she took the plushie out of the box and hugged it. Next was Peter’s turn to give a gift. He handed his gift to Mikkel.

Mikkel smiled and opened Peter’s present. Inside was a black shirt that said awesome Danish dad in red. Mikkel smiled and hugged Peter. The boy in question smiled and hugged back.

Now it’s Christian’s turn to give his present.

And of course it’s for Peter. Smiling more, Peter opened the present to reveal its two games for his Nintendo Switch.

“This is awesome!” He said as he hugged Christian. Christian smiled and hugged Peter. Now it’s Berwald’s turn to give his present and it looks like it’s to Erland.

Blue eyes look at Berwald and Erland smiled a bit. He opened the present to see it’s a stunfisk plush.

“I love it papa,” Erland said with a bright smile. He then hugged Berwald, who hugged back. Mikkel’s turn to hand a present and it’s for Berwald. There’s a faint blush on the Dane’s face.

Berwald smiled and took the present from his husband, kissing Mikkel’s cheek in the process. This brought a happy smile to Mikkel’s face. He really did love his husband. Berwald opened the present to reveal a framed picture of their kids. Berwald smiled at seeing this. He pulled Mikkel onto his lap and held him. This made Mikkel smile more than he already was. It was then that Berwald said, “This was a sweet present, but by far the sweetest one is you.” Because of this, Mikkel blushed deeply. He shifted a bit and hugged Berwald. Now it’s Bitta’s turn to hand out her present and it’s for big brother Christian.

Christian seemed surprised at this. A present? For him? Even after two years of being with his family he was surprised. He took the present from Bitta and opened it. Inside was a heart shaped pillow that said storebror on it. He then hugged Bitta and held her close. Bitta smiled and hugged Christian. Of all her siblings, he was the one she was closest to. Despite the fact that she can’t hear him when he talks to her but he’s learning sign language so he can.

“God jul, barn,” Mikkel said. Three of the kids look at Mikkel and smile. “God jul, far,” Christian and Erland say. “Merry Christmas, dad,” Peter said. Bitta climbed onto Mikkel’s lap and curled up to him. Smiling more, Mikkel hugged her and signed Merry Christmas to her. Christian sat next to them and attempted to sign Merry Christmas to Bitta. She smiled and hugged Christian.
