Carter and I each grabbed two of the body bags we kept the witches in and dragged them in so we could present them to the council.  They overlooked the bodies and dismissed us after telling us they would call for our services soon. I grabbed Carter's hand and skipped out to the picnic table in the back.

We sat down and I cuddled against him .  After a couple moments Carter decided to speak.

"Jordi, I was wondering..."  He began.

"What?" I asked looking up into his bright blue eyes.

"Doyouwanttomeetmyparents?"  He asked.

"Umm Did you just ask if I wanted to meet your parents?" I asked.

"Yeah"  He answered looking at his feet.

"Of course I do. Carter I'm not a some high school girl who'd freak out over this."  I told him rolling my eyes at his behavior.    "Even as a high scholar I didn't get worked up about it so you have nothing to worry about."

"Thank you" He told me as he tilted me head back to kiss me.

"No problem" I said winking.  "So when and where are we meeting them?"

"How is tomorrow for lunch at Harbor Café?"  

"Perfect" I told him and we wondered back to the car.

The next day

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I slipped on a pair of loose yoga pants and a shirt that wouldn't constrict my movement incase I had to fight.  After that I slipped on my dagger sheath onto my leg.  As I did that Carter walked in.

"Come on Babe leave the Dagger here."  He coaxed.

"No What if we're attacked?" I asked.

"If that happens you have elf powers and can shift.  Both of my parents and I are warlocks."  Carter told me.

"Still" I whined. "I feel naked with out it." 

"No babe if you bring it you'll feel like you're on the job and you'll end up ignoring the socializing part of lunch.  Plus you can kill with your bare hands."

"Fine" I pouted and took it off. I then shoved the daggers sheath into my desk and when Carter looked away I put the dagger in my boot.  I got to be prepared.

 After a short car ride we arrived to find His parents already there.

When I shook his mom's hand she said "Hi I'm Jeanette you must be Jordi I was so excited to meet you"

"Hello Same here" I answered then shook his dad Samuel's hand. 

After about another hour of chit chat we were finishing up our lunches.  As Carter said good bye to his mom and dad I snuck up behind him and threw my arms around his neck.

With that I stood on my tip toes and whispered in his ear "Tomorrow you meet my Mom."
