You were standing in the bathroom of your apartment getting ready. You had butterflies in your stomach the size of Texas. Tonight you were having dinner with your parents and your boyfriend, Baron, so they could meet.

You met Baron when you started working as a backstage interviewer at WWE's developmental brand, NXT, where Baron was wrestling at the time. You were a little intimidated by him at first, you being 5'4" and him being 6'8". But after hanging out with him after a show one night with a group of other people from work the two of you hit it off right away. The two of you started having more and more conversations, and you were the only one who could get really great interviews and promos out of Baron.

After a few months your friendship turned to more when Baron confessed his feelings to you. You had officially been together six months and you couldn't be happier. This was the next big step the two of you had to take.

You had just finished applying your make up when you heard the front door open.

"Babe?" You heard him call out from the living room.

"In the bedroom." You yelled back.

Thirty seconds later you saw his large frame smiling at you in the reflection as he leaned against the doorframe of your bathroom. You looked at and smiled.
His hair was slicked back, and you noticed that his facial hair was freshly trimmed. He was wearing a dark gray plaid suit with a white button up shirt on underneath. It was the first time you had ever seen him in a suit.

"What? Is it too much?" He asked as he took in your expression.

"No. No, you look great. I've just never seen you in a suit before." You said.

"I wanted to make a good impression." He said.

"Baron, they're going to love you." You said.

"I'm a 6'8" professional wrestler with tattoos who rides motorcycles and likes rock music. I'm sure I'm exactly what your parents pictured in a boyfriend for you." He said sarcastically.

"Baron, I love you for who you are. That's why my parents are going to love you too." You said.

You turned around and walked over to him and wrapped your arms around his torso and tipped your head back so you could look up at him.

"What if they don't like me, though?" He asked.

"They'll love you." You said.

"But what if-"

"Then nothing changes. I'm still going to love you, Baron. Nothing can change that." You said.

"Promise?" He asked as his dark eyes looked into yours.

"I promise. No matter what they think, I'm not going anywhere." You said.

"Good. I don't want to lose you." He said softly before he leaned down and pressed his lips to yours.

He pulled away from the kiss and then looked down at his watch

"You ready? We should probably head out." He said.

"Yeah, I just need to grab my purse." You said.

You locked the door of your apartment and you and Baron made your way to the parking lot.

"My car or yours?" Baron asked.

"We can take mine." You said.

"You want me to drive?" Baron asked.
