"Rob are you sure?" I looked at Rob, he wasn't in as much pain as before, but I was still unsure.

"Dylan... I'm fine." Rob chuckled as he grabbed his bag. "I want to meet your family."

Stepping in to the Gillette airport, it all became real. My brothers stood waiting.

"Rob.... These are my brothers. Cooper, Josh, Ryan... This is Rob." I smiled at my brothers. Cooper and Josh were older than me and I wasn't sure how they would take Rob.

"Hi." They all said in unison, reaching out to take Rob's hand.

"Hey." Rob gladly shook there hands.
"Alright let's get you guys home." Cooper and Josh took our bags as we headed to the car.

It was about a 20 minute drive to the house. We drove up the gravel driveway to the house I grew up in. The three-story house held many many memories.

"Alright D your room is yours and Rob
you can stay in the guest bed room."

Once we got all situated into our rooms we headed to the living room to watch some movies. It being, Wyoming there was still a lot of snow on the ground so we were basically stuck inside.

"Dinners ready!" My mom yelled into the living room. I helped Rob get up carefully and we walked down the hallway to the kitchen table.

"So Rob I heard you had a pretty good season the last two years Rob." My dad turned to Rob.

"Yeah I did, it helped that I had an amazing encourager by my side." Rob turned to me, I could feel my cheeks redden. The rest of dinner went by really smoothly, lots of conversations took place. After dinner the boys left to go into the living while I stayed back to help clean up.

"Dylan..." My mom turned to me.
"Yeah?" I slowly turned around waiting for her to reply.

"I really like Rob, and I can see how much he makes you happy."

"Thanks mom." My cheeks were probably redder than a fire truck. After I finished cleaning up I walked back to the living room. The guys were all saying goodnight and heading to bed. All of my brothers worn smug smirks as they walked out.

"Hey, goodnight." Rob whispered into my ear hugging me from behind.

"Goodnight." I turned to face him. He looked like a big relief had been lifted off of his shoulders. We headed up to bed.

We spent 10 days in Wyoming. We visited Devils tower, Yellowstone, and the Tetons. Rob and I grew closer and closer.
