Sam's POV

I wake up in Colby's room, both of us wrapped up together. Today, my parents are coming over to Colby's parents' house so we can pick a date that works for them to fly out. I get up to take a shower and get ready for the day. I turn on the water and step in. Then I feel arms wrap around my waist. It's Colby.

"Good morning love," he says.

I turn towards him and kiss him. "Morning baby," I say. He pulls me in and kisses me. I kiss him back, wrapping my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck. I lay my head on his shoulder. He chuckles. "What's funny?"

"You're adorable." I look into his beautiful blue eyes and kiss him again. He sets me down gently and grabs the shampoo. We take turns watching each other's hair. Then he turns off the water and grabs towels for us both. We dry off and get dressed. Colby leads me downstairs to make food for us. "My parents left for work so we have the house to ourselves," he says.

I sit down on the counter, watching Colby make food for us. I could watch him all day. Colby gets to a point where he can step back and let the food cook. He stands in front of me and I pull him towards me. He wraps his arms around me and lays his head on my shoulder. This is perfect. The timer goes off and we jump apart. We burst out laughing and he goes to dish up the food for us. We eat in silence, holding hands.

Colby's parents get home shortly before Colby finishes making dinner for us and our families. My parents will be here soon so we can discuss the date of our wedding. A knock sounds on the door and I go to answer it. I show my parents to the living where Colby's parents are sitting. I join Colby in the kitchen as we hear our parents talking in the living room. I set the table while Colby finishes dinner.

"Dinner is ready," Colby calls to our parents who come into the dining room.

We all sit down to dinner. Colby and I fill them in on the plans for the wedding so far. Then, the discussion turns to the date of the wedding.

"We were thinking of a fall wedding. What do you think?" Colby asks.

"That sounds lovely," my mom says.

"How about mid-October?" my dad says. Everyone agrees and we pick the date of October 12th of this year. Our parents are going to ask for that week off so that they can be there for the whole wedding week. Our parents sit in the living room, just talking and catching up. Colby and I decide to go for a walk.

We walk down the sidewalk, holding hands. It's kind of odd walking down the streets of our childhood as a couple, but it also feels right. Everything with Colby feels right. We sit down on a bench and I create a group chat with our friends back to tell them the date of the wedding.

S: Hey everybody! We picked a date. Our wedding is October 12th. only two months

Devyn: Yay, can't wait!

Kat: Yay!

Brennan: That's awesome!

Corey: About time, lol

Elton: Hope you guys are having fun in Kansas.

Aaron: Awesome!

C: Thanks, everyone! We can't wait to see you all!

I smile at Colby as we look at the supportive messages from our friends. I take a picture of our intertwined hands and with Colby's approval post it to Instagram.
