That week and the following week flies by quickly after that. Within days it is Christmas time and Mikayla's birthday comes. Cash comes over with Kent to the studios those two days to celebrate. Then just as quickly as Christmas came, New Year's Eve comes. Cash and Kent come over right before dark. A few of the neighbors around the studio are there as well along with friends and family. A little bit before 12 am, everyone who is at the studio sits by the field where they do the car stunts. Cash sits next to Mikayla while Kent sits next to him. They sit there with the neighbors and others who came and wait for Alicia, John, and a few other people to start shooting off the lots of fireworks that was bought.
About seven minutes before midnight, Cash looks over to Mikayla. "I want to tell you something. But I want to wait for a few more minutes." Mikayla looks at confused. "Ok."
The next few minutes pass quickly and midnight is three minutes off. Cash turns back to Mikayla who is already looking at him. "I know we have only known each other, since November, but over these last few weeks, I've realized how much you mean to me." Cash glances at his watch that now say 11:58." He looks back at Mikayla. "I was wondering, and hoping, if you would want to be my girlfriend?" Mikayla looks at him shocked. She notices him look at his watch again. She sees the time and sees what Cash is trying to do. Without hesitating, Mikayla says yes. Seconds later, everyone screams, "Happy New Year" and fireworks go off. Mikayla smiles at Cash and they say, "Happy New Year," together. Mikayla then kisses him on the cheek. "You'll have to wait for next year for the real thing," she says and laughs. Cash smiles too. "I can live with that." Cash laughs then the two turn their attention on the fireworks. In the corner of his eye, Cash notices Kent holding a phone. He grabs the phone and goes to the gallery. The first thing that pops up is a three minute video. Cash looks at Kent and smiles. "Thanks buddy."
When 1 am hits, all of the neighbors are back at their houses. The only ones at the studio are the family and friends that are staying for the rest of the holiday. Mikayla and Cash are the last ones to meet up with everybody else. Kent runs over to John and Alicia. He sits down and plays the video for them. "I knew it wouldn't be long," John says and smiles. "You've made a great choice Cash." Cash can't help but smile again. "Thank you sir."

"Wow, just wow!" That is all Mikayla's mom has been saying ever since Mikayla told her the news about her and Cash. "I just can't believe it. I always thought you would end up with a dorky looking kid. I'm amazed." Mikayla laughs. "I thought so too. I'm lucky we were both wrong. I am kind of still amazed by this whole thing." Mikayla smiles probably the millionth time ever since it all happened. Cash smiles for about the millionth time as well. "I'm glad Kent talked some sense into me that day."
Mikayla's mom watches as Mikayla looks into Cash's eyes again. "Excuse me," she says. Mikayla turns back to the phone. "Oh, sorry Mom." Mikayla looks at the time.
"I actually have to go onto the stage soon. See you in about three weeks. Love you, bye." Mikayla ends the video call and grabs her guitar. "This better be the best show you've ever played. I mean, since it's the first one I'm gonna see." Mikayla smiles as she walks past him holding the door. "I'll try my best." Mikayla and Cash then walk into the venue and to the stage. Someone is on the stage ready to announce her. As the person says her name, Cash screams along with Kent who's is beside him, and the crowd as Mikayla walks onto the stage. She puts her drink down on a stool by the microphone stand. "Hey y'all. This is a very special show for me tonight. This is my boyfriend's first time seeing me perform, so I'm gonna start off with something really special." Mikayla pulls out her guitar pick and counts the band down. Her and band start playing and the crowd, Kent, and Cash along with Alicia and John now cheer now. Alicia pulls her phone out and records as Mikayla starts to sing the words. Cash can't help but smile.
