McKenna's POV:

September 23rd, 2021

I looked over at Tanner while he answered the question, I was trying to come up with a response but I had no idea what to say.

"What about you, McKenna?"

"Umm, probably season 4, it has been the most fun to film and we have all gotten so much closer throughout the show."

"Now, I have to address the elephant in the room, McKenna, what happened to your arm?"

"I had a scene yesterday and there was a harness malfunction, my costar caught me but I now have a subluxation in my shoulder."

"So sorry to hear that, are you alright?"

"Yeah, I'm good,"

"What were you filming?"

"Unfortunately, I can't share that information yet, producer are keeping it on the low,"

I walked into the airport and waved goodbye to Mary and Tanner who was kind enough to take me to the airport. I got through security and sat at my gate with a hat pressed onto my head.

I'm at the airport. I'll see you soon😊

Fly safe beautiful, I can't wait to see you!

I blushed and tucked my phone away as the plane started boarding. I grabbed my suitcase, scanned my ticket, put my suitcase overhead, and sat in my seat with my phone and AirPods. I turned on the music and leaned against the window and shut my eyes.

Joe's POV:

I hardly slept last night, I have been cleaning the house and as soon as I woke up this morning, I went to practice and showered. I walked out with Tee and Ja'Marr, "Do you guys think I should tell her how I feel?"

"Yes, come on man, you're completely lovesick over this girl. It is so blatantly obvious to us." Tee said.

"I think you should go for it, after everything you told us, there is no way she doesn't feel the same way," Ja'Marr added.

"Okay, she'll be in later today, I have a few ideas of what I should do for her."

"She's coming to Cincinnati?" Ja'Marr questioned.

"Yeah, she should be here in 4 hours."

"So what ideas do you have?"

"Well, I'm going to get groceries so I can actually cook for her, I'm going to buy her flowers, I'm going to get her a pajama set, and a nice dress for when I am able to take her out on a date."

"Well aren't you a secret romantic, I never would've guessed." Tee teased.

I laughed lightly, "I'll let you know how it goes,"

"Come on man, when can we meet her?"

"Soon, I'll let you know," I said as I got in my car and drove to the store.

I got nearly everything I knew how to make, I found some purple roses both light and dark, which is Kenna's favorite color. I also found a stunning black, white, and grey dress for her, and lastly a light purple silk t-shirt and short pajama set.

I went home and got everything in my spare room cleaned and prepped for Kenna, I am so excited for her to be here and time was moving way too damn fast.

I got changed into a pair of sweatpants and a white longsleeved shirt, I grabbed a pair of sunglasses and a random baseball cap. I slipped my shoes on, grabbed the flowers, and got in the car. I smiled and drove myself to the airport, I quickly made a sign in the car and then walked into the airport. I didn't think I looked recognizable and it was confirmed when no one else seemed to recognize me.
