"Hanna?"

"Yes?" She asked.

"Oh, there you are." I spun around to see her standing in the doorway of the hotel room.

She looked stunning.

"You look--"

"Should I change?" She self-conciously rushed over to the mirror and started to fix her hair.

"Stop it," I mumbled, smiling at her.

She turned around and smiled back.

"You look perfect."

"I love you," She giggled, kissing my lips.

I grabbed her hand and dragged her out of the hotel room.

"Tonight, we dance." I hold my hand out, and she graciously sets hers into mine.

And there we were, me in my polo, and her in her dress, dancing in the middle of the hotel hallway to the kind of music you hear in elevators that just so happened to be playing over the speakers.

"I love you, Han." I whispered in her ear.

She nuzzled her head into my shoulder, and we continued to slow dance.

"What are you two doing?" A voice laughed from behind us.

"Callie!" Hanna exclaimed, pushing herself away from me and running towards her little sister.

"I was stalling, you two are late." I laughed as her grandma came around the corner.

"What are you doing here?" Hanna asked joyfully.

She scooped her sister up into a giant hug.

"We wanted to surprise you. It was all Kale's idea." Callie giggled into her sister's shoulder.

Hanna turned towards me.

"You did this?"

"For you, money's no object. You seemed to miss them. I know you were worried about Callie."

"I was," She whispered, walking back over to me. She kissed my cheek.

"Ugh, Cals, you're heavy!"

"Obviously, I'm not six anymore." She laughed.

Hanna set Callie back onto her feet, and she hugged her grandmother.

"How long are you staying?"

"Just for the night. We're going to get changed. The plan ride took a little longer than expected. We were delayed because of rain out of California. We'll get dressed and meet you two at the--"

I cut Hanna's grandma off.

"Hanna doesn't know where we're going. Sh!" I scolded.

"Right. We'll meet you there."

"Perfect." I smiled and grabbed Hanna's hand.

We climbed out of the car. Hanna let out a loud, audible gasp.

"Ohmygod, Kale. Where are we?"

"You like it?"

"It's beautiful."

"Yeah, you're beautiful too."

"Wow," she whispered, taking in the beauty from the mountains.

I coughed loudly, "I said you're beautiful too!"

"I heard you, relax!" She whispered with a playful sound in her voice.

She kissed my lips softly.

"I'm glad you like it,"

"Where'd you find it?"

"I found it this morning when I took some food over to Kayla's."

"Yeah, sorry I didn't come. I was really tired after last night."

"Yeah, that was tiring." I laughed, picturing the visions from last night. 

"Psh, you wish."

"That was hard work giving you that kind of pleasure."

"Oh, I bet." She joked.

"No, really. That takes a lot of work to make you scream that loud." I kissed her cheek.

"What are two talking about?" A voice exclaimed behind us.

We reconized the voice to be Hanna's grandma.

"Hi," Hanna laughed as Callie ran up to her and hugged her again.

"I missed you!"

"I missed you too, Kiddo."

It'd been a total of seven weeks since we first started this little adventure. Kayla was a little more open to the idea of having a son. She allowed me to bring over food every other day, and I bought her and her kids clothes once a month. Her daughters were adorable. Liana was six, and Leah was four. And, they were the cutest little girls in the world, and of course, they loved their big brother (sort of, more like half-brother).

"Kale!" Grandma Lynn exclaimed.

I turned towards her.

"You two didn't do anything, did you?"

"Of course we did,"

"You're only seventeen!"

"Kale, stop joking. Of course we didn't, Grandma."

"You sure about that? I overheard some of that little conversation."

"He was kidding."

"Oh, really now?" she asked, obviously not believing us.

"Yeah, I had to walk all the way down the street to get her double chocolate cookie dough ice cream, which apparently they don't sell at the hotel. It took a lot of work to walk all that way!" I complained.

"Oh, poor baby." Hanna joked.

"And, then, when I got back, she was already asleep, so I woke up her by tickling her. If you haven't tried that, do it some time, she screams like she's being killed." I laughed, grabbing Hanna's sides gently and tickling her.

She errupted in a fit of giggles and screams as she squirmed from my hands.

"Stop it! Kale! Stop! She gets it!" Hanna giggled, trying to break free.

I wrapped my arms tightly around her, and I pulled her body tightly against mine. Her back pushed against my chest, and I kissed her cheek.

"So, nothing..." she paused and glanced at Callie, "sexual?"

Her voice softened for the last part. She obviously didn't want Callie to know that, and can you blame her?

"No!" Hanna shot back.

"Hanna, it's OK." I whispered into her ear.

"I'm not a slut!" She exclaimed.

"Honey, I didn't say you--"

"Yes. That's exactly what you said!"

"Hanna, it's fine." I tried to whisper again.

She shoved her body away from mine and stared into her grandma's eyes.

"I'd never do that." She mumbled.

She was obviously hurt.  Her grandma wrapped her arms around her and pulled her into a tight hug.

"I'm sorry," Hanna whispered.

"No, I'm sorry." Her grandma smiled back.

"Annnnnnd, now we go to dinner." I jump in.

Hanna grabbed my hand, and Callie grabbed her gandma's, and together we all walked to the restaurant.
