Katlyn

When I got to Orlando, I followed Travis's directions to his hotel. I took the elevator up and knocked on his door. He opened it and let me in. We sat in silence for a while. To be honest, I was kinda mad at him. "Hey, I know you're still mad at me. But I want to ask you something." He says. "I know I've been a jerk. But I realized that we didn't try out this long relationship thing." He starts. "Would you consider.... taking me back?" I look at him and smile. "Ya, I think so," I say. He smiles and I rustle his hair. He hugs me. "Thanks for forgiving me, Baby." He whispers. I yawn. "I'm going to take a nap," I say. "I'll take a shower."

I fell asleep with ease. I was so tired from the plane ride from Phoenix Drop to Orlando. I heard the shower running for a while, then stop. About 5 minutes later, I felt a weight on the bed. I guessed it was Travis. He started stroking my hair. I open my eyes and get up. I see Travis, and I blush because he hasn't put on a shirt yet. "Are you excited to meet my parents?" He asks. I nod. "Truth be told, I'm kind of nervous," I admit. "Don't worry. They're nice folks." He gets up, pulls a shirt out of his suitcase, and puts it on. "Alright, let's go." He says. I shake off the last ounce of sleepiness from my 15-minute nap and follow him.

We arrive at the hospital in no time flat. We walk in the building and to the front desk. "Hi. We are visiting Caleb and Sasha in room 518." He says. The nurse nods. "You can go in." She says. Travis takes my hand and leads me through the corridors of the hallways in the hospital. When we got to the room, he knocked on the door. "C'mon in." I hear. I suspect it was his dad. Travis opens the door. When we walk in, my heart swells with sadness. "Mom, Dad, this is Katlyn." He says. His mom looks at me and smiles. "Why, hello, Katlyn." She says. I smile at her, my eyes filling up with tears. "So you forgave Travis?" His dad asked. I nodded.

Travis

I hope my parents like her, I thought. Katlyn was smiling, so I took that as a good sign. "Katlyn, I love your hair!" My mom says. "Thanks, Mrs...." She starts. "Please, sweety, call me Sasha." She says. "Thanks, Sasha." Katlyn finishes. "I'll go get some dinner. Be back in a few." I say. I kiss Katlyn and walk out of the room. I also needed to take an important call. To Katlyn's dad. I... have an important question to ask him. I dialed his number and waited. "Hello?" He answers. "Um, hi. This is Travis." I start, getting more and more nervous. "Oh, my Sugar Pea's boyfriend?" He asks. "Ya." I respond. "Um, I would like to ask you a question. About Katlyn." I start. "Go on." Katlyn's dad pressed. "So, I, um, wanted to know if..." I paused for a second, my heart beating like a humming bird's wings. "If you would give us your blessing." I finish. "I want to ask her to marry me."
