Charlie glared over at Ashley. "How else am I supposed to get any answers, hm?"
Blake rolled her eyes as she moved away from her brother, closing the gap until she stood at Ashley's side. "Honestly, Charlie. You wonder why people don't want to spend time around you."
The blonde shot a glare in his sister's direction. "Says the pregnant woman."
It was Blake's turn to glare now, her gaze filled with spite and malice. "Take that back!"
Charlie grinned deviously. "No way."

"I honestly beg to differ," Ashley interjected, one eyebrow raising. "I rather enjoy spending time with Blake - mood-swings and all." The teasing tone in his voice was subtle, but very, very deliberate as Ashley's mouth twitched upwards in a sly smile.
"Ehi, l'amico," Antonio said, looking between them all. "Such a family you three are already."

Charlie scowled. "Suck-up."
Blake glanced at Ashley, and thanked him with a light kiss on the cheek only after the words had been said. When Antonio spoke, she glanced over, laughing quietly. "Is that supposed to be a compliment?"

Ashley resisted the urge to smirk at Charlie, as that was extremely unrefined. Instead, he merely raised another eyebrow, conveying the same message.
Antonio grinned. "Some say sì, and some to not. Capisce? I would advise you to look at the bright side. Your little 'il fagotto di gioia' will have a family, and then some."
Ashley turned to look at Antonio.
Antonio shrugged. "What can I say? Alondra and I have considered you famiglia for years now, Ash; you know that," the Spaniard teased. "Did you think we wouldn't consider her such as well?"
Ashley blinked, smiling in gratitude. Antonio chuckled.

Blake couldn't stop smiling. "You really mean that?"
Charlie simply rolled his eyes.

"I make it a habit to not tell, ah, falsità," Antonio said simply. "We'd even stand to put up with your brother!"
Ashley whacked him gently on the back of the head. Antonio laughed.
"La pace, la pace, il vecchio amico!"
"You know I'm bad at Spanish," Ashley retorted. "Alter Freund tatsächlich."

Charlie glared. "Hey! You Spaniards are all the same!"
Blake giggled lightly. "Charlie, lighten up, would you? This is your new family."
"Ah, no. This is neither of our new family. It will not be until Ashley asks you to be his wife, Blake," Charlie insisted with a smug grin. He folded his arms.
Blake scowled. "Charlie, please. Act your age."
"I am, which is why I'm stating the facts, dearest sister."

Antonio shrugged. "As are all of you" he wrinkled his nose, a cheeky grin spreading across his face. "Inglés."
Ashley turned to look at Charlie. "Does this mean... that you would be okay if I did?"

Both Charlie and Blake looked at Ashley with surprise. Charlie blinked a few times before his eyes narrowed, while Blake just kept blinking.
"You...want to marry me?"
"He's teasing you, Blake," Charlie insisted, still scowling.

The look Ashley sent Charlie was filled with such open scorn that Antonio raised his own eyebrows - something he rarely ever did.
"I understand if it's... too soon, and I don't even have a ring, but..." Ashley said, his words very quick and rushed.

Charlie returned the look, though when Ashley spoke those words, his jaw dropped.
Blake's breath caught in her throat. "You're actually....?"

"I..." Ashley's face turned red. "I... yes, I am."

Charlie's jaw dropped further, if that were even possible.
Blake smiled widely, giggling just a little. "Do I honestly have any reason not to accept?" She reached up to kiss his cheek tenderly. "I'd love to marry you."

Antonio's eyes glowed.
"[i[Bravo, mi amigo,[/i]" the Spaniard said warmly as Ashley gently trailed his fingers down the side of Blake's face, a soft smile transforming his face.
"I love you, Blake," Ashley murmured.

Charlie just continued to stare, finally managing to close his trap. He honestly could not believe it.
Blake giggled softly once more. "I love you too, Ashley."
