Finding Mr. Right

Chapter 19

I was putting everything away in the garage when dad came in to see all the progress we made. He started it up and revved the engine a few times. He then got out and looked under the hood. "It all looks and sounds good. You all did a good job."

"Yes me and Caleb make a really good team." I said with a small smile plasters on my face. It was true we made a really good team and I could see us lasting forever. We had a connection that was undeniable and people looking from the outside in could see just how much we were meant to be together. Now came the hard part of telling my dad that we were dating. It could go one of two ways. He would yell at me and storm out of the garage or he would be super excited, finally getting the son he always wanted. Well here goes nothing. I was going to finally let him know no matter what the consequence.

"So dad. I have some news to tell you and it's really really great news." I paused looking up at him hoping he was going to take it well.

"Yeah, so what is this really good news you have to tell me about?" He had a worried look on his face.

"Well, I am going out on a date with Caleb. We have kind of sort of been seeing each other. But it wasn't really serious until now." I finally could breath. Now it was time for his reaction and I wasn't sure if I was ready for it.

"I kind of thought you two were hitting it off. If your asking me if it's ok then I say heck yeah. Go for it. Your an adult and I know you will make the right decision for yourself. You are a really great girl and any man would be lucky to be with you. I am happy you finally found someone who makes you happy." He came over and gave me a big bear hug.

"Thanks dad. I was really worried you would be mad at the whole situation since we work together and all."

"I could never be mad at you for finding happiness. Sure it would be awkward if it didn't work out but you have to take chances. Besides if he breaks your heart I'll break his face." He laughed and patted me on the shoulder.

" I know dad that's what I'm afraid of."

We then walked back to the house and chatted about work and what we were going to eat for dinner. It was really nice to have his support. I knew deep down that he would be ok with me and Caleb dating. I now had to break the news to poor Ethan. He had been trying to take me out every since he met Caleb. I needed to go hang out with him and Rachel so I could let them both know just how serious things were getting and I wouldn't be able to hang out with them as much. I wanted to be able to get to know Caleb on a more personal level.

I never had time or much thought about having a boyfriend before, that is until I started to get to know Caleb and now he consumes my every waking thought and encompassed all of my dreams. He was someone I was starting to see a forever with. I felt like a princess in any given novel that all had the same happy ending. My only hope was that someone evil wouldn't come in to ruin it all. But in all the books no matter how evil someone was the prince and princesses love withstood and conquered all. I wanted my knight and white horse to sweep me off my feet. I adore sappy love stories and I hoped that this would be just like the romance novels and movies I had always read about or seen on tv.

As the weeks past and soon became months, we began to spend more and more time together and Rachel and Ethan began to spend more time together as well. This made Rachel happy of course because Ethan was paying more and more attention to her. He was finally getting to see what a nice girl he was missing out on. They meshed better together than me and Ethan ever could have. I wasn't in to him and he wasn't the type of guy I was looking for. I had no idea what kind of guy I wanted, truth be told, until I met Caleb. He was the one I had been waiting my whole life for. He was the one who captured my heart and made me feel whole. I now knew what it felt like to have the kind of love my mom and dad had. It wasn't perfect all of the time but it was pretty darn close. I also liked the fact that Caleb never tried to pressure me into an intimate relationships with him. He knew my virginity was very important to me and he wanted me to wait until I felt it was the right time. He kept things PG and that was fine by me. I had waited this long to find my Mr. Right and I wanted it to the right time for not only me but him also. Things just couldn't get any better than this. That is until Caleb revealed a big terrible secret to me. Changing everything about our relationship forever. I guess evil will prevail after all.
