"ASEEEEEEFFFFF YOU'RE GENIUS" I hollered back.

We topped our sundaes with every single possible topping at home and then, we dug in.

"Ooh, let me try yours" Aseef said.

I fed him some from mine and then I ate some of his.

"Let's switch" he said.

"Sure" I replied.

They were both good.

"MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM" I groaned.

I watched in admiration as Aseef ate. Its been almost a year since our marriage and I can't help but still feel that spark.

"Staring at me?" Aseef said, with his signature smirk.

"Is there a problem? Am I restricted to stare at you?" I said.

"No, by all means. It just shows how much you're still obsessed" he said.

"Oh really? I'm still obsessed? My obsession isn't as big as yours" I said.

"You just admitted you have an obsession with me"

"Well what if I do, I only obsess because I love you" I said, laughing.

We kissed.

"You're breath is all chocolatey" I said to him.

"So is yours" he replied, licking the spoon.

"This kid is gonna get all his flirting tips from you" I said.

"I know. I'm going to teach him everything, when he's engaged, of course" Aseef said.

"How are you so sure they will work?" I asked.

"Well you're in love with me now, aren't you?" he said, with a small smile.

"Your jokes are cheesy, and totally not the reason why I fell for you, fyi" I replied, giggling to myself.

"You're right, it was my amazing charm. And also because I'm a sexy, delicious, hunk" he replied, with a wink.

"Aseef you still never fail to amuse me, now do you?" I ask.

"Nope, and your smile still is pretty different when you're with me" he said.

"It is NOT" I argued.

"It is TOO" he replied.

"NOT"

"TOO"

"NOT"

"TOO"

"NOT"

"TOO"

"I give up" I reply, rolling my eyes.

"You won this round, Rasul" I said, with my own smirk.

He smirked.

"Just as I have always, Rasul" he replied.

My heart fluttered.

"Come on let's go to bed" he mumbled, after a few minutes.

"Okay, you're right, I'm tired" I replied, yawning.

Aseef looped his arm around mine and we began to walk. I needed help walking upstairs, considering the fact that I was an over grown, easily tired, pregnant woman.

Halfway up, I started to pant out of tiredness and shortness of breath.

I looked at Aseef and he smiled out of sympathy. I smiled back.
