The second leg of The Jersey Syndicate Tour is coming, just a few more days on their way and again on the road.  Jon was very anxious.
Lately these days he'd been busy with Doc, his manager and reheasing with the band. I have stayed at Jon's apartment while he was away rehearsing. I loved cleaning all his stuff, and do his laundry.
One day while I was bored with nothing  else to do ... I got a call from Jon."Hi," I said.

"Hey baby girl ," said Jon on the other side of the phone.
"Hey, what's up?" - I asked.
"Well," he said cheerfully, "I have some  great news."
"What's up, really ?" - I asked with anxiety .
"So...let's get married baby'' he said" We have a show in  Vegas within a week. "
"What the fuck ? Are you serious?" - I said excitedly. "I was eyes clouded with tears of happiness."
"Yes, very serious, baby. Will you marry me.?" - he wondered.
"It's not the most romantic way you propose me over the phone, but of course I do" cried happily.
"Well, see you in a little while,babe" he said.

Jon had been rehearsing in their studio in New York  with the band, so  he would be on  his way back to Jersey to discuss the wedding.

I could not wait to kiss him and hug him. Show my entire  happiness that soon I would become his wife.
After waiting for almost an hour and a half, Jon showed up. When he opened the door, I ran into his arms and hugged him. I threw my arms and legs to his body, and pressed myself so close to him as if he were my whole life and my everything.
He buried his lips and nose in my hair, and took a deep breath as a reaction of my passionate hug . We kissed,made out for a complete long minute  and then I get off him .
He looked gorgeous  and happy as he could ever be.
We were a moment standing there, smiling at each other like 2 young kids.

"Let's fly to LA," he said smiling . I frowned.

"What for?" - I asked.

"We have to get you parents' approval" he said.

The next day, we flew to Los Angeles  so he got to meet  my parents and ask them for permission to marry me.

As soon as we got to LAX, we took a shuttle van to my parent's house in Sherman Oaks. My parents, Hilma and  Gabriel Dylan.

"Mom ,Dad!" - I yelled when I first opened the door .

"Steph!" - they both  said at the same time and came running to us.

"We did not expect you to come, Stephy" my mom said a little surprised.

I looked at Jon's face . Poor thing , he looked so  pale and nervous.

"Hey, are you okay,babe?" - I asked.

He nodded. I laughed in his face. Poor Jon ...he looked so funny at the same time.

"I'm nervous," he said with a serious expression on his face.

I grabbed his face with my hands and kissed him quickly on his lips.

"I'm not nervous anymore," he said, and then laughed.

I took his hand and led him to my parents. They looked both surprised when they saw me with Jon. They both looked at each other and then a look to both of us. My mother smiled .She looked at Jon and smiled.And Jon smiled back at her.On the other hand, my dad did not seem to be very excited to see  me with Jon.He checked Jon out  from top to bottom.

"Papa, Mama, I said" -... this is Jon.

Jon smiled at them both, and my mother walked over to us immediately and gave us a hug. Smiling, she greeted him with a firm  handshake, and his eyes were so bright in excitement , because she finally got to meet my new gorgeous man. I had her on the phone for a long hour the previous week telling her all about Jon.
