[MATURE CONTENT]
Bast and Kai were having dinner together. Kai sat at the table, glancing at the time, waiting impatiently.
He murmured, "Where is Bast? How long do I have to wait?"
Just then, Bast walked in and sat across from him. "Did I take too long?" he asked with a smile.
Kai nodded. "Yes. I waited too long."
Bast chuckled softly and said, "I'm sorry."
Kai crossed his arms. "Nope. I can't forgive you that easily."
Without warning, Bast stood up and gently took Kai's hand, making him stand too.
Kai blinked, confused. "What are you doing?"
Bast didn't answer right away. He sat back down and opened a small velvet box.
Kai's eyes widened in shock. He stood frozen, unable to blink.
Bast looked up at him, eyes sincere. "Kai… will you marry me?"
Kai's face was still frozen in disbelief, completely stunned.
Bast added, "I promise I'll protect you forever. Love you with everything I have."
