In Your Dreams

Wouldn't you love to love her?

Narrator's POV

Tifani and Mia drive to the restaurant in silence. They felt like that was the only way of not screaming and arguing all the way to the restaurant. When they got there, they could see Karen's car, which means that Stevie was already there.
"You can go in first honey, I'll grab some things that I have to give Karen." Tifani says, trying to avoid eye contact with her daughter.
"No, it's okay, mom. I can help you carry the things." Mia says and grabs a few bags that are on the backseat, walking towards the entrance.
"We have a reservation in the name of Nicks." Tifani says and when the young waiter that looks around 20 looks at her, he almost faints.
"Ye... ye... I mean yes, of course Mrs Nicks. I'm sorry for that." He takes them to their table and Tifani hugs Karen, and they hand her the bags.
"Hey Steph." Tifani Greets her wife with a peck. "Did you have a good day?" Stevie nods her head and looks at her daughter laughing and talking to Karen.
"What happened to Mia?" Stevie whispers to Tifani. "She looks just fine."
"It's a long story, babe!" Tifani says and they look at her daughter when she comes and hits Stevie tight.
"Heeeey mamma!!! I missed you!" Stevie kisses her head and they all say goodbye to Karen that finally heads home after a long day.
That order their food and keep having small conversations about volleyball, music, movies, family reunion next month, and etc...
After they order dessert, Stevie stares at Tifani and she nods her head.
"So, Mia... is everything okay with you, baby?" Stevie calmly says. "We've been a bit worried about you."
  Mia stares at her moms, and starts to sob. She can't hold the tears no longer.
Her moms and her siblings are everything she has, and she's been so blessed with them, that she can't throw everything away.
  Stevie and Tifani moved close to their daughter's chair and just held her hand and caressed her hair. They knew that this breakdown moment was important, so they just reassured Mi that they were not going anywhere.
  After a while, Mia stops crying and rests her head on Stevie's shoulder.
"I'm so... sorry that I've been such an ass with you two lately. It's just super hard being the new kid, from a new country, and having famous parents." Tifani's sheds a tear and Stevie holds her hand. "I know I should be used to it by now, but it's only been almost 2 years, and High School makes things worse. Being a freshman is bad, but when they say crap about you, then I get mad." Mia starts to cry again, and Tifani hands her a glass of water.
"Honey, what do they say?" Tifani asks.
   "Well, in the beginning it a was fine, it seemed like they didn't know who I was, but then one day this guy asked me if I had any coke, and I just denied it, then he said that I should have some, because I was Stevie Nicks' daughter." Mia looked and Stevie, that was silently crying.
"Mamma, I don't want you to feel bad. It's not your fault, and I love you. They're just mean." She hugs Stevie.
"Then in choir one day a girl started to whisper at her friends and look at me, then when we were going to start sharing our weekend experiences she said that I should be the first one since I have a rich mom with mommy issues." Tifani just looked shocked.
"But Mrs. Hubbard took action, yelled at the girl and sent her to the office, so all good." Mia said and dried her eyes. "I just didn't want tell you, because I knew you would feel bad. I love you moms, and I know that you're amazing, loving and strong. I just hate that these people say bad things about you. Sorry for acting like a brat."
Stevie stands up and hugs her daughter like her life was depending on it. Tifani does the same, and exhales the air she didn't know she was holding.
They sit back down and eat their food peacefully. "So, after we get home, what about a girls night?" Stevie Asia and Mia nods.
"The kids are at your grandparents' house, so we can watch movies." Tifani says.
"Can we watch 'The Princess Diaries'?" Mia says and they share a laugh.
After they finish eating, Mia walks outside with her moms.

  "Ugh, I love that movie soooo much." Mia says and stands up, grabbing the popcorn bowl and helping Stevie to stand up.
"You're right missy, but now time to got to bed. We leave early tomorrow for NYC." Tifani says "You aunt Coryn wants us there for her proposal." Tifani says and kisses her daughter's head, grabbing the blankets that are on the couch and taking them with her.
"Good night sweet girl, and always remember that we are here for you!" Stevie says and gives her daughter a kiss on the cheek.
Mia looks around and smiles, feeling glad that she has such an amazing family surrounding her.
"Thank you." She looks up at the ceiling. "For giving me the best family out there!" Turning the lights off she goes to her room.

Tifani's POV
I can't believe one of my best friends is proposing to my girlfriend today.
Coryn and Isabella are together for 5 years now, but we didn't expect it to happen.
"Tiff, do you think she will say yes?" Coryn is so nervous that I think it's funny. It reminds me about her graphic design class in high school.
"Honeeey, you need to chill! I'm sure she will love it... but what did you plan?" Coryn tells me the whole pan, and I can't wait for it to happen.

"Sweetheart, we're back." Stevie tells and Harry comes running towards Coryn throwing himself at her. "The girls went to Starbucks with Karen, they'll be back soon though." She kissed her wife and gives Coryn a hug. "Are you ready?" She just nods and Stevie goes to the kitchen to make her special Fleetwood Mac Fiesta Dip.

A few hours later the whole penthouse is full, and I'm just quietly organizing the people where they're supposed to be.
"Hey Tiff, have you seen my girlfriend?" Isabella asks me with a cocktail in her hand.
"Hey honey, I haven't seen her in a while. Why's not we just go look for her?" I take her to the living room, and turn the music off, for everyone to see Coryn walk into the room.
Well, hello everyone. You all must be asking yourselves why you're all here today, but better then telling you, I'll show you." She goes to the piano and starts to sing.

"Before we met five years ago,
I thought I would be all alone
There would be no one I could call my own
And I was okay with that idea
Until you came into my life

I never thought I could be myself
I never thought someone could love me the way I am
I never thought I could find someone as perfect as you
I never believed I could be so happy
Until you came into my life

When people say there's no life without love
I know what they mean when I with you
Isabella, how can I say you're all I need?
Oh, you're all I need in life
Life is better with you by my side
I still get breathless when you walk through a door
Everyday I learn to love you more
You don't know how much you matter to me

Thank you for being by my partner in crime
Thank for loving me and all my faults
I can't help, but look at you and wonder
What did I do to deserve you?

Isabella, how can I say you're all I need?
Oh, you're all I need in life
Life is better with you by my side
I still get breathless when you walk through a door
Everyday I learn to love you more
You don't know how much you matter to me

A life without you isn't a life at all
My world is better with you in it
Believe me when I say, you make life worthwhile
That's why I need you by my side

Keep looking at me like you always do
Hold my hand tightly
I want to continue our journey
The last five years have been the best years of my life,
Isabella, will you please be my wife?"
 
   Everybody gasps and look at the couple excitingly. "Yes! A thousand times yes!" Isabella says and they kiss.
Stevie hugs me and we watch as love wins one more time.
