Your Bookworm Wife, Mitzi

Hmm... Mitzi... Where to start? I guess at the beginning of it all, huh?

After elementary you started going to a middle school with a bunch of new people to meet. One of those people being Mitzi. At first, you and her never really talked together that much, In fact she wouldn't really talk to anyone at all. She would spend most of her free time at the school library alone minding her own business. And because of that she never socialized or had any friends. Most of the popular kids always considered her to be the nerd or the geek of the school since whenever she read a book she'd wear her reading glasses. And at that time that's all you really knew about her. Just a girl who loves to read but also doesn't have any friends...

That was... Until, one afterschool evening, you were with your math teacher talking about how you could raise your grade. After chatting and negotiating with them for a while your grade goes up slightly. Feeling satisfied, you pack up your stuff and you make your way towards the hallway. The orange sunset fills the empty hallway as you walk to the stairs. But, as you start walking down the stairwell, you see Mitzi sitting on the floor with her backpack beside her. She sat behind a window which glistened her creamed colored fur. She seemed to be entranced in the book not even noticing you were there watching her. You look down at what book she was reading and you realized it’s a book from one of your favorite book series. After a minute she turns a page presumably finishing a chapter before closing it. She then takes off her reading glasses and looks up seeing that you’re there looking at her. Immediately, she freaks out not realizing you were even there. After she calms down she looks back at you and gives you a shy little wave to say hello. You wave back at her and say that you have the exact same book as hers. You then unzip your backpack and show her the book. Her ears perk up feeling excited that she finally has someone to share her interest with.

You sit down next to her and the two of you start talking about the book series together. And before you even know it, you two start having a whole conversation knowing more and more about each other. however, as the conversation continued, it started to get dark out and the two of you decide to leave and go home.

But, even after that, you two continued to hang out and eventually became good friends. Normally, you and Mitzi would usually go to the park together and read under a tree afterschool. But as the more you hung out with her, the more you started to feel attracted to her.

And randomly, Through out the day you would start daydreaming about her, even during class you would daydream about her. Every time you’d pass by Mitzi in the hallway you’d feel your stomach fill up with butterflies. The love for her was just too much and you felt like you needed to confess it all to her. But, the more you thought about it, the more you’d start to feel worried thinking if she didn’t feel the same way then your friendship with her would end. Eventually though, you decide to be brave and admit your feelings to her at the park you two would read at. She’d end up feeling the same way and after a few days you two would end up making it official to everyone that the two of you are dating...

Your love for each other would grow more and more as the years went by and after middle, high school, and college you would ultimately end up proposing to her at the same park you guys would spend all the time together as teens. And not too long after that you’d attend your wedding ceremony with Mitzi. She looked absolutely stunning in her wedding dress that day. All those years dating and being with her was all leading up to this special day, and it sure was one to remember. Even after the wedding things just kept getting better and better for you two.

You and Mitzi would later move into a house together, and you would get hired at a well-paying office job. You two had your own roles in the house. You were the husband responsible for working and paying the bills. And Mitzi was the housewife responsible for keeping the house clean and tidy. But, even though you life with her was amazing... it still felt like something was missing... someone a little extra...

One day, you come home after work and you have dinner with Mitzi. While eating with her you bring up the topic of having a family together. Eagerly, she finds the idea sweet imagining you and her as parents. And after some talking and planning you two would eventually have your own child. The two of you decided to name her “Mary” because Mitzi thought it sounded nice and short.

Those years raising a child with Mitzi were probably one of the happiest years of your life. But, of course, all good things must come to an end at some point. And before you know it she grows ups, and leaves to got to her dream college with her boyfriend. Leaving the two of you alone together once again...

Currently, it’s cold winter night, and you’ve just finished your shift at work. You make it home safely and you park your car in the driveway. Afterwards you get out your car and you start to fumble trying to find your keys to open the door. Once you enter inside you feel the warmth of the living room hit your face. You then start to hear small little footsteps walk towards you. Mitzi pops her head into the living room and sees you at the door.

“Ah! My husband, how was work today?”

She says her voice elegant and full of love. She then walks up to you wearing her usual Gumdrop dress before gently taking off your jacket.

“Let me take that off for you, darling.”

She puts your jacket on the coat hanger and pulls you into a hug. Her fur rubs against your body warming you up.

“Mmm... you must have been freezing out there. Come, I’ve made some tea in the kitchen if your interested, mew...”

She pulls back slightly getting on her tippy toes to kiss you softly on the lips. Once she finishes kissing you she puts her hand on your cheek and smiles lovingly at you before turning away. She then starts walking towards the kitchen. The tip of her tail sways side by side as she walks.
