"Now boarding flight 4A to San Antonio, Texas," the loud voice over the intercom stated. Ross and I grab our suitcases and walk towards the gates to enter our plane. "Have you ever been on a plane before Laura?" "Um no, is it scary," I asked Ross with a questioning look. "You'll be fine." "O-okay," I say pulling my carry on up onto my shoulder. "I can't wait to meet your mom and sister. They seem really nice." "They can't wait to meet you either Laur." ----------------------------
Right now I am standing on the front porch of Ross's mothers house. Ross rings the doorbell and a short lady with shoulder length blonde hair and blue eyes opens the door. Ross must get the hazel eyes from his father. "Oh my macaroons! Ross your home!" the woman exclaims pulling Ross into a tight hug. My heart breaks a little when I see a tear roll down his mother's cheek. They soon pull apart "Oh my, you must be Laura," she says taking my hand in both of hers. "Yes I am." "I've heard so much about you." I blush at the thought of Ross talking about me. "All good things I hope," I say giving Ross a look followed by a smile. He just laughs. "Woss?" Suddenly I see Ross pass his mother and embrace his little sister into the biggest hug. "Hey princess," he says kissing her cheek. Awe. " Who that?" I then realize she's pointing at me. I give a small smile and wave. "Grace, this is Laura." "Lawra. She's pwetty." I laugh as the little girl 'whispers' in Ross's ear. Grace is talking super loud but she thinks she is whispering. But it's cute because she is three. "I agree Grace," Ross says tickling her belly, "she is very pretty." I can't help but blush. "Ross why don't you show Laura around?" Says his mother. "I'll see ya later princess," Ross says kissing Grace's cheek one more time before setting her down. "Come on Laur," Ross says grabbing my bags. "You don't have t-" Ross gives me a silly stern look. "Okay," I say quickly following him. I can't help but notice picture on the walls of both kids. One specific picture catches my eye. It's of a little Ross and I assume his father.

"Ross? Is that your father?" Ross turns around and stands next to me eyeing the picture. "Yes. I was Grace's age in that picture." "You didn't tell me your father was in the military." "He didn't die fighting if that's what you're thinking," Ross states as a tear rolls down his cheek. "He died of cancer. It was so unexpected." "Wow. Ross, I'm so sorry." "It's alright. Anyways," he says walking down the hall and opening the door," our house only has three bedrooms." Before I can speak he continues, "so you'll be sleeping in my room and I'll take the couch." "I can't let you sleep on the couch," I say in disbelief. "It's fine. I've slept there before. Plus if Grace wakes up I'll be able to get to her." "Okay," I say in a not so sure way. "Well I'll let you get to bed." "Alright, goodnight." "Night Laur."

3:02 a.m.
Boom! Crack! I'm woken up by a thunderstorm. Something I've feared since I was little. I slowly get up and creep out of the room. I slowly walk to the couch where Ross is softly snoring. I tap his arm," Psst, Ross. Ross wake up." "Hm what?" He grumbles. "Ross." "Yeah." "I'm scared of storms, will you come lay with me?" "Uh yeah. Yeah I can do that." "Okay." As we turn to walk down the hall we find Grace standing there rubbing her eyes. "Woss, I scared." "What am I going to do with you two?" "I know baby. Come on." We walk into Ross's room and thank the lord he has a queen size bed. Ross lays down first and lifts the covers for me to crawl in. I try not to get to close but I end up right next to him. Grace squeezes in right next to me and snuggle up to my chest. Ross's arm makes its way around my waist. "Good Woss and Waura." "Goodnight Grace," I say rubbing her arm. "Goodnight princess." After that every thing went blank and I was in Snoozeville.
