Katie's P.O.V

"Katie will you marry me?" My eyes widen and tear as my hand moves over my mouth. I hear the words for real and nod.

Dropping his guitar on a stand he scoops me up into a hug. "Yes. Absolutely yes." He puts the sparking diamond ring on my finger and kisses me in front of the whole crowd.

Pulling away he says into the mic, "So soon enough this we will be Mr. and Mrs. Gaskarth!" He kisses me once more and walks me off stage. I hug the rest of the guys back stage and they walk in to finish the set. As they finish off I go to talk to Julia, Brittany, and Chris.

The guys come off stage and Alex comes to hug me. He whispers into my hair, "We're engaged." I respond my smiling and pulling him into a kiss. We go to dinner with everyone and talk small wedding details. I tell Julia and Brittany they will share responsibilities of maid of honor. Cassadee and Tay will be my other two braids maids. We look at the touring schedule of the band as of now and decide October is the best month and its both Alex's and my favorite month. After eating and going back to the hotel we pack all if our stuff up and check out of our rooms. We say our good byes to Julia, Chris, and Brittany. As they go to the airport we load on to the bus and head to the next city.

1 months elapsed.

I grab my bags from the bus and knock on the door of the house. Julia answers the tour hugging me. I drop my bags in the hallway and run to greet the others. Saying hello I go and run to my room collapsing on my bed.

Alex clears his throat from the door way laughing, "Miss your bed much? I know the feeling. As your fiancé I missed your bed too."

Realize we're now home and I can't put it off any longer I sigh, "Alex we have one more thing we need to do. You have to meet my mom."

Panic strikes his face, "Parents scare me. They're not usually too fond of the 'rockstar' boyfriend."

"You have nothing to worry about. She just needs to see that you really care about and would never run out and leave me to basically die." I get up starting to unpack my things and grab my phone. I dial her number and she picks up on the second ring. "Mom? Yes it's your daughter. Katie who else! Yes Mom, I know I've been MIA for the last three months. So I have news to tell you and someone for you to meet. Tomorrow, my house around 5? Sounds great. I see you then. I love you too Mom bye." I hang up the phone filling in Alex on the other side of the conversation.

The next day a few hours before she's coming over all of us are cleaning up the house. Alex comes running down the stairs in a towel and shower damp hair yelling to me, "Get over here and help me dress appropriately!" I walk with him to his closet and pick out his American flag skinnies and a glamour kills shirt.

He raises an eye brow as if he's confused with my choice. "She's not the queen, babe. You just need to look like yourself. "

Alex does his hair and I go downstairs to cook. Sometime later the doorbell rings and I go to get the door.

My tiny black haired mother makes through the door hugging me on the way in. She strolls into the kitchen to put her purse down and Alex whispers to me, "That it! She's barely as terrifying as I though!"

We walk to the kitchen following her and I introduce her to Alex.

"So this is the famous rocks star Alex!" She goes and hugs him too, "I've heard a lot about you and you are just as cute as she said you are!" She says in her slight Italian accent. We sit down to dinner and begin to eat. Breaking the silence she grins, "So when is one of you going to tell me about that rock on my daughters finger."

Hearing her statement Alex almost chokes on his food. "Well uh..I actually asked your daughter to marry me and she said yes."

My mom and I look at each other and laugh. Taking a sip of her drink she says, "Of course I knew that. I could see the panic on your face the minute I walked in. I though it would be funny to mess with you and it was!" We finish dinner as Alex tells my mom about himself and he warms up to her. We say our good byes as she leaves.

Shutting the door she wraps his arm around me and leans down to kiss me. "Tonight went better than expecting. Meeting the woman who raised such a wonderful daughter makes me love you more."
