And he is a creepy rapist. I am glad someone else pointed it out too. As a male, I would feel not okay with doing this.
This was not a romance, this was a man raping a woman who could not respond. She never told him yes, she never gave permission, she couldn't say yes or no.
Rape pure and simple, regardless of a happy ending.
I love a love story but he is a "loving" rapist. She was incapable of communicating her consent. Therefore there was no consent. Therefore he is a rapist.
I greatly enjoyed this story! You might consider developing it into a much longer story to more fully develop the characters. Everything seemed to happen so quickly, even though it was over a long period of time. Still a great story, though!
I'm glad you once again explained about the movies he had watched of her, it made sense as to why he would agree to marry this woman.
However, I don't understand what he did about law school. His parents gave him the advice to travel. Did he plan to return to law school after graduating pre-law?
