You open your eyes and the first thing you see is the picture of you and Trent on your side table and a smile works it's way to your face. Suddenly you remember that Trent is at home and the smile on your face widens. You yawn as the sun shines through your window and you can feel the warmth outside already. You close your eyes again and you feel your phone buzz under your pillow.
As you open your eyes, you look at your screen and see a flood of messages and calls. You eyes flash up to the time and down at the messages and then back at the time.
"9:15?" You whisper loudly as your heart drops. You sit up quickly and scroll through all the messages and missed calls.
3 calls and 4 messages from Trent and a message from RK and a few from Clay and Ashley.
You slide the missed calls from Trent over and hold the phone to your ear. It rings three times and then goes to voice mail. You hang up and open the messages from him.
The first one says "good morning princess. I'll see you in a little while"
You read the other ones and then read the last one a few times
"Okay sweetie. It's 8:30. I'm leaving my house now because we have press all morning. Call my mom when you wake up and she will let you know what time to be over there. I hope you've gotten some sleep. I love you so much."
Tears rush to your eyes and you sigh. As you scroll through the rest of your messages.
The message from RK was the one that had just come through. "Hey sista. Give me a call when you get a chance."
You hit the call button and RK answers on the second ring.
"Hey! So glad you called! Is everything okay? Trent said you were supposed to meet him here!"
You laugh and say "I didn't hear my alarm. I literally just woke up."
"Oh." She laughs. "We'll get ready and come over here. Or come over here and get ready. We are leaving in like and hour and a half to go to the Tupelo court house"
"Okay!" You say quickly. "I'll be over there in an hour."
After the call ends, you click on Trent's messages and type "I AM SO SORRY. I slept through my alarm. I have no idea how. I'm coming with your family to the court house. I love you"
40 minutes later, you jump in your car and head toward the Harmon's farm.

When you walk in to their house, RK comes around the corner. "Just in time. We are leaving as soon as mom and dad get ready."
"We are ready." Mrs Cindy says as they walk into the kitchen. "Wow. You look so pretty today (y/n)!!"
You hug her and say "oh thanks so much mama C!"
You climb in the car with them and head toward city hall.
When y'all pull up, excitement rushes through you. "Trent is in there.." you think to yourself and smile.
As you walk in the building behind randy and Cindy, you see Trent ahead of you, with 6 or 7 television cameras pointed at him. He is talking to one of the guys who is standing next to him. He glances over and sees his family and smiles and raises his hand. Suddenly, his eyes flash to you and cold chills run down your back. His smile widens across his face and he stops talking for a second. Then, suddenly he focuses back on the interview and looks away. You follow his family over to a table beside the interviews and Randi Kathryn looks at you with a strange look as you sit down.
"What??" You laugh as she stares at you.
She glances over at her parents and sees them in a conversation with the mayor and then looks back at you. "I've known Trent my whole life, obviously, and I've never seen him look at someone the way he just looked at you. He couldn't even continue the conversation he was in."
You feel yourself blush and you look down "I mean I knew he loved you... but woah.. I didnt realize it was that intense."
"I..." you start and then look back up at her "I feel that way everytime I look at him.."
"(Y/n) I could feel yalls connection.." she starts again.. "I've never...." she shakes her head and then the smile on her face grows "looks like I might be getting a sister sooner than I thought." You both giggle and then the news anchor motions toward the table.
"Can I get some shots of Randy and Cindy and Randi Kathryn now?" Cindy is the first to stand and says "absolutely!" Randy and RK follow her over to the camera.
You glance over at Trent and see him saying something to the news team. The guy laughs and shakes his head and motions Trent off.
He looks up and sees you staring at him and smiles. You smile back as he starts heading toward you. "Finally." You whisper to yourself. When he is almost to you, another guy grabs his arm
"Hey Trent. Can I get an interview really fast??" Trent smiles at him and says "absolutely man." And then flashes an apologetic look over to you.
A sadness works it's way through you and you work to keep the smile on your face.
"Might as well get used to it.." you think and then pull your phone out of your pocket and open the group message with Clay and ashley and see a new message from Clay.
"Hey I know you're all lost in Trent world, but let me know what time we are meeting to go over to fair park."
"I haven't gotten to talk to him yet. Press keeps grabbing him. But anyway. I'll meet y'all at my house at 3:30."
Ashley responds quickly. "Got it, sister. And hang in there. You'll get time with him.. this is something we are all trying to get used to."
You read the message and smile to yourself and then open up your Snapchat.
You snap a picture of Trent wearing elvis shades and add the caption "hey, I'm getting my own elvis.. what more could I ask for?" And post it to your story.
A few minutes later, the Harmon's come and sit back down at the table.
"They just told me that he isn't gonna get to talk to anyone else until after the concert if we aren't press." Randy says as he sits down and looks at you. Before you realize what he sad, he cracks a smile and you realize he was just kidding.
"Actually he said for me to tell you to meet him out back in 3 minutes." RK whispers quietly when her parents enter another conversation. You smile and look around. Then, you pick up your phone and "answer" it and then walk toward the back door and down the steps outside.
You stand on the porch of the court house and look around and take in the scene. A few seconds later, you hear the door open and before you can turn around, Trent wraps his arms around your waist.
"Agh." He says into your ear. "I've missed you.."
a smile works it's way onto your face as you turn around and he wraps his arms tighter around your waist, pulling you closer. He brings his face closer to yours but stops short of meeting his lips to yours. Your eyes meet and you just stand that way for a second, smiling at each other. You put your arms around his neck and suddenly his lips meet yours and you feel him smile. He moves one hand to your cheek and runs his thumb along your cheek bone.
As the kiss ends, he puts his hand back around your waist and pulls back a little bit. "I've needed to do that for a while now. But especially since you walked in."
You blush and smile up at him.
"You look gorgeous." He says matter of factly.
"Thank you." You whisper and kiss him quickly.
He takes a small step back and puts a hand on your cheek. "You okay, sweetie?"
You take a quick breathe and smile back at him "yeah. Today's just made it super real. Like you're home, but you have press and stuff. I'm just not used to this here.."
he wipes a stray tear off your cheek and then pulls you into a hug. You feel him take a deep breath "yeah, I know.. it's weird here... it's so normal in Nashville and LA.. but not at home.."
You pull back slightly and look up st him and smile "but I'm so proud of you. I can't even put it into words.."
You see red rush to his cheeks. "Sorry I missed coming to see you think morning.." you say and he laughs
"Babe it's fine. You were up almost all night waiting on me. Besides this made it even sweeter."
You touch your lips to his slowly and all too soon he pulls back and sighs.
"As bad as I really just wanna do this all day.. I have to get back inside..."
You try to hide your disappointment but he sees it.
"Hey.. it's okay. Guess what? I get to stay this week. Like until next Saturday." An excitement runs its way through you and you kiss him again.
"Okay" he laughs as he pulls back "I've really gotta go back in. You go in this back door and imma wait a minute and go back in the side door. So no one will notice.. "
a giggle works it's way through you. "Okay."
"I'll see you later though. Deal?"
"Deal." You say quickly and he kisses your cheek.
You turn and walk up the steps. As you walk in, you turn around and close the door and Trent catches your eye before you turn around again and winks at you. You smile again and walk over to the table.
Cindy and Randy are lost in a conversation with someone else and you sit down across from RK. She looks up at you over her phones and raises her eye brows.
You stifle a laugh and she looks down at your phone in your hand and then back at you as your phone vibrates.
You open the message from her and see pictures of you and Trent from the porch.
"How?" You whisper quietly.
"The room in there has a window to the porch. I went in there so no one would be coming in there. And y'all are so cute I had to snap some pics."
You laugh again and lock your phone as Trent comes into the room and looks over at you and smiles.
"Okay.. we have a few more interviews for you before you head off to your next destination." One of the BMR guys say. you smile to yourself and think about how hard its gonna be getting used to your boyfriend being a celebrity in your town, but you think about the short time on the porch and know that it's all gonna be worth it one day.
