Chapter Seventy Two
Damian's POV
I am awaken by the smells of y/n's breakfast casserole and the beautiful song I'll Still Love You More by Trisha Yearwood filling the house with it's beautiful melody. I smiled as I wipe the sleep from my eyes before grabbing my glasses and putting them on as I sat up. I uncovered myself before swinging my legs to the floor. I stood and stretched before Tony pushed the door open as I started towards the door as Eyes Of A Woman by Tim McGraw filled the house. She was either listening to our playlist and had added this or she was listening to her country music playlist.
I greeted Tony with a pat and head scratch as he followed me. I walked into the kitchen to find y/n sitting in a chair at the table. She was humming along to the song and reading a book as a timer ticks away as Don't Take The Girl by Tim McGraw plays. I smiled as this was my favorite song by Tim.
I pulled a chair out and the sudden scrape of it made y/n's head pop up from the book.
"Morning Baby," she said "You sleep well?"
I nodded "New adds or your country music playlist."
"Oh," she blushes "New adds. Something about a Tim McGraw song," she said as she smiles at me "Hope you don't mind."
I shook my head 'no' "You know I love Tim McGraw," I said as she nods 'yes'.
"Did I wake you?" she asked closing her book.
"No. My nose did," I said pointing at the oven.
She rolled her eyes playfully "So your nose was like Luis get up y/n made her breakfast casserole."
"As a matter of fact it did," I said.
She laughed lightly "Babe you're a dork," she teased.
"I may be a dork but I am your dork," I said as I leaned over and kissed her "Now that's better I can't start my day without a kiss from you."
She blushed lightly "Same," she said.
"So you kiss yourself?" I teased.
She gave me her not sure whether to be amused or flip me off look "Luis Martinez you know what I mean," she shot back playfully.
"I do but it'd be cute to see you try to kiss yourself," I mused.
She gave the Babe be serious look and I grinned at her and she smiled in spite of herself "Baby. There literally are days," she shook her head as the timer went off "Mind getting the plates and silverware out? Oh and juice glasses," she said as she got up and put on the oven gloves I brought her back from Japan. They had little Kawaii ducks on them.
"No problem. By the way Babe. How long have you been up?" I said as she took the casserole out.
"Long enough," she said and I knew she didn't sleep much last night.
I sighed "Babe. How many times have I told you. If you can't sleep wake me up," I said.
She sighed "Luis. I didn't want to be a burden," she said heaving a more prolonged sigh "You were sleeping so peaceful and I was able to slip from the bed unnoticed," she frowns lightly "I just have a lot," she motions around her head "going on up here. I-" she turned away from me as she was going to grab the casserole dish.
"Amor," I said "What's wrong? If I can fix it allow me to," I said turning her to me and pushing her lightly to kitchen island and pinned her between it and me. My arms on either side of her body.
"I-I-I don't know if I really even want to be a tutor anymore. I'm exhausted from twenty plus years of school as it is. Teaching and my own. I just," she sighed again this one deeper and more like a weight had been lifted off her shoulders "I just don't think I want to do it anymore. Especially since moving here. Being able to know you come home to me," she smiled with a blush "Me being able to on a whim fly with you to Berlin. Sure you and I may not be able to be with each other every single second of the day. But you come back to the hotel to me," she said laughing "God I sound selfish. It's me this and me that. How would you feel if I don't know simply said I quit and I am now retired completely?"
I laughed "Babe. That's been what has been weighing you down? We're you thinking this yesterday afternoon at the airport?" she chewed her lip so I had my answer "You threw up yesterday because of nerves about telling me you want to spend more time at home and being able to on a whim come with me? You really thought I'd what? Be upset? That I would say no you have to work? Honey. You have put twenty years of your life into something. I know a little something about that," I cupped her face "The answer is retire. Be home full time," I kissed her "Because Amor. I have only a few days home. I would love to be able to spend every moment I can with you when I am home. If you were working. I'd be home during the day you'd come home tired and want to just sleep. I am now rambling like an idiot. Babe. What does your heart want?"
"To retire and be able to be with you as often as possible," she said as she let out a slow steady breath "I'm done. Holy fuck. I'm retiring at forty two?"
"If you retire today it's still technically forty one. You're still my age and not the older woman just yet, " I said and she playfully slugged my shoulder.
"Burro," y/n playfully teased. (Jackass)
"I'm your burro, y/n" I grinned making her blush.
"You know what your smile does to me," she said.
"Makes you putty in my hands," I said wiggling my eyebrows. She gave me the I might just kick your ass in a second look and I chuckled.
"Babe!" she said.
"It is true! You know it is," I said.
"I do. But the casserole," she gestures to it on the stove top "is going to go stone cold if we keep this up," she said.
I laughed and kissed her forehead "Okay. Then let's eat," I said "Then we figure out your retirement."
"Can we call it something else? Retirement makes me sound so old," she said.
"Then what do you want to call it?" I asked.
"Umm," she chews her lower lip and I know that's her deep in thought face "Err. Former teacher."
"And if someone asks what you do for work?" I asked.
"I'm a house er. House girlfriend?" she said and she cringes "No that sounds stupid."
"The term you are looking for is housewife. You will be a housewife and I'm not complaining," I grinned as I took the plates, silverware and glassware to the table as she brings the casserole. I waited and held her seat as she sat down. She scooches her chair in as I sat across from her "Gracias amor por esta deliciosa comida," I smile at her. (Thank you amor for this lovely meal.)
She blushed lightly as her eyes met mine "De nada querida. Espero que lo disfrutes," she said as she was now basically like me, bilingual. Sure she stumbled over words at times but it's cute and she does try and correct herself. (You're welcome dear. I hope you enjoy it.)

After breakfast which was as always fantastic. Y/N and I are busily packing for our trip to Berlin and back to the states and Denver Colorado where we were spending three days. Sunday when we land, Monday for Raw and then Tuesday I had an appearance at local liquor store in Denver.
"Babe," I said as she glanced up at me as she was trying to figure how to put a pair of sneakers into the new suitcase I bought for her for a early birthday present. They were black and purple her two favorite colors and mine too. Hence why our colors are black and purple for the wedding.
Y/N's phone went off and it's a text from Demi.
Be ready in ten. Be there
for your birthday
lunch and I am
taking you to get
that new tattoo. My
treat.
I saw it and chuckled.
"New tattoo?" I grinned.
"The one Demi helped me design, " she said "I promised to not have a ummm ghost that looks li-" I put a hand over her mouth.
"Okay. I think I got it," I smirk my hand still on her mouth. "So what did you design?"
She shook her head as I moved my hand "You will have to wait," she said.
"So where is this one going?" I asked.
"Other shoulder," she said.
I chuckled "From having no tattoos and being terrified by needles to getting your third tattoo," I chuckled "By the way I am meeting you for the tattoo. I always hold up my promises. Text me when lunch is over," I peck her lips "Now go get your sneakers on," I smacked her ass "I will finish packing."
"Thanks,", she pecks my lips and heads out of the bedroom as I looked to see Ziva and Tony looking at me and then the suitcases.
"I know. Mami and I will be gone again but you're going to Sherry's," I said "And we will be back for you on Wednesday morning. Then Mami is staying still for a while. Okay?" Tony stood on his hind legs and put his front paws on my stomach. I pet him and he licks my hand. Ziva did the same but put her paws on my hip. "Papa has to go back out on the road but he comes home. You know that," I smiled as I hear a giggle behind me. I looked over my shoulder and y/n was standing in the doorway "Babe."
"Damn strap on my purse broke. Have to grab a new one quickly so is this how you practice your dancing?" she giggles as Ziva got down and followed her.
I chuckled "Funny Babe," I said. She came out with a new purse. She kissed me again "You're my only dance partner."
"I mean Tony is a cute dance partner," she said scratching his head as y/n's phone went off again "Gotta go," she kissed Tony and quickly kissed me before hurrying from the room.

I am driving to where Demi gets her tattoos done as her tattoo artist was doing the one I had no idea what y/n had planned for the first time ever . The other two tattoos I knew what she was getting. I knew she wanted the butterfly on her shoulder blade and I designed the heart and arrow tattoo on her shoulder.
I pulled in and right next to Demi's car and they're just getting out of the car.
"Babe!" said y/n as we both got out.
"Hey Babe," I said as she ran over to me and hugged me. I wrapped her in a hug and lifted her off her feet. She wrapped her legs around my waist. I quickly peck her lips "How was lunch?"
"Good. We got tacos," she said with a grin and I laughed.
"You love your tacos," I said as she unwrapped her legs from my waist as I sat her on feet "So you ready?"
"Yes," she said as she grabbed my hand "By the way I really hope you like this one. That's what Demi and I were talking about and then stopped when you came to us in Sunrise, " and I looked at Demi and she grins.
"You sneak!" I laughed.
"She asked for help and I helped my sister from a different mister. I think you will like it. I promise," she said.
I looked between my sister and the love of my life as they grin at each other. As we walked into the tattoo shop.
Y/N met Demi's tattoo artist, Celeste she asked what design she had in mind and Demi hands her the paper.
As she opened the paper it's a varying shades of purple penguin with brown eyes, glasses, a black ponytail holding a Samurai sword that was designed with the Puerto Rican flag on the blade and one wing was Freddy Kruger's hand with three black paw prints over it's head and the numbers 4-8-24 along with a ❤️ under it's feet. Y/N looks at me with a smile.
"Do you like it?" asked y/n with a huge grin.
"I don't just like it. I love it!" I said kissing y/n.
"Told ya. When y/n asked how to always have you with her and she explained how she wanted the tattoo to symbolize you," said Demi. "I knew she calls you her penguin."
"So Demi was like the penguin needs to be purple because we both love that color, then we added one of your swords, knew the Puerto Rican flag needed to be the blade of the sword and had to have a horror movie incorporated," explained y/n "And then we added the paw prints for Jethro, Tony and Ziva. And then the date we met and fell in love with each other and obviously needed to add a heart for good measure," she blushed softly.
I was thankful I was sitting because I was blown away. She had put so much detail and thought into this tattoo.
"Amor. You know this will be a lot of work," I said.
"I know it could be a couple of sessions," said y/n.
"So you're okay with that?" I asked.
She pats my cheek and kissed me "For you I would walk though hell, fire and brimstone," she said "Just hold my hand. That's all I ask."
"And before you say anything. This entire tattoo is on me. It's my birthday gift to y/n," said Demi looking at me "And trust me after you see what y/n got y-ouch!" she rubbed her shin "Okay. I forgot," she shoots a look to y/n.
"What happened?" I asked as I was lost.
"Nothing. Y/N foot accidentally kicked my shin," said Demi as y/n gave Demi a look back. They were communicating without words.
" Babe did you kick Demi?" I asked.
"Accidentally," she said as her and Demi exchange glances again and they both grinned at one another before giggling.
I rolled my eyes "I swear these two are going to be the death of me," I told Celeste and she laughed lightly.
"Hey. It's a dangerous combination when the sister and the fiancee are besties," said Celeste.
"Tell me about it," I said as Demi pats my shoulder.
"Mate. You're just going to have to learn we," she pointed between her and y/n "are your terror twins."
I looked at y/n who had her shirt off as Celeste started the tattoo and then I looked at Demi and back at y/n "Fuck," I muttered.
"Baby. We love you," said y/n with a smile as I held her hand as now she could talk casually while getting the tattoo done. Granted she still needed my hand for moral support but otherwise she was doing better than the first one.
"I love you two too. But it's true you two are my own personal terror twins."
They looked at each other again and laughed. I shook my head as Celeste looks at me "But it's a good thing you have these two. Seems Demi and y/n live to terrorize you but push comes to shove they'll lead the army into battle to protect you."
I nod "But this one," I pointed to y/n "Will be the first one to throw hands and this one," I pointed to Demi "will be right behind her."
This session lasted a good fours and half hours and surprisingly Celeste actually finished the entire tattoo. She was showing y/n the finished product and was shocked how good it turned out.
"¿Qué te parece, nena?" asked y/n. (How do like it Babe?)
"Realmente me encanta muchísimo, amor," I said as I stood beside her. (I absolutely love it so much, Love.) She gave me a gigantic grin.
"¿Qué te parece, nena ?" I asked.
"De verdad que me encanta, cariño. Me alegro mucho de que te guste," she said smiling at me as Celeste gave her the green light to put her shirt back on. (I really really love it. Baby. I'm just so glad you love it.)
"Ready to go home now?" I asked and y/n nods.
"Yes. Demi we will see you tomorrow and thank you for my birthday present," said y/n hugging Demi.
"You're welcome and I will see you two tomorrow," said Demi as Demi gave me a hug before she went to pay for the tattoo.
"Let's go home," I said putting an arm around y/n's waist.
We said goodbye and headed home.
