AXEL

*You and Axel are alone in the room. The door is locked and you can hear your in laws arguing in the other room. You turn to Axel and he's staring at you, his eyes are cold and emotionless.*

( I scream for them to open the door)

*They don't answer. Axel grabs your arm and pulls you close to him.*

I'm ready if you're ready.

*Axel looks at you for a few seconds and then takes a deep breath* 'I think I am. but I want to make sure that you're 100% sure too.'

I'm sure

Axel: I'll make an appointment for you.

thanks honey

Axel: you're welcome. and if we do have trouble getting pregnant, we'll figure it out.

*6-7 years later*

*Axel shrugs* 'That's not my problem. I'm not the one who's going to be pregnant.'

I'm tired..

*Axel turns to you with a shocked expression, he whispers* 'Are you kidding me? You can't say that to my parents!'

and?

*Axel takes another step closer, his voice becoming more serious* 'About us. I think we need to figure out where we stand.'

*she swallows hard, her heart pounding* 'What do you mean?'

*Axel takes a deep breath, his eyes searching yours for any sign of understanding* 'I think we both know that this marriage was arranged. We don't really know each other, and we don't have any real feelings for each other.'
