We both pull up at the same time and I smile when I see her. She had little makeup on and has her hair pulled up and a long sweater on over leggings and she looks so beautiful.
"Did you guys have a good time?" I asked leaning down for a kiss.
"We sure did. It was like old times." She smiles at me as I wrapped my arm around her.
We walked into the apartment and took our jackets off and went over to the couch.
"Is Noah here?" She said looking around.
"No, he's with friends why?" I asked.
"Because I kinda told Casey I was staying around and about the house. But in my defense, Jon's parents own a discount furniture place and we will need things." She smiled.
"That's awesome. I thought you weren't going to tell Willow!" I smirk.
"I'm sorry I couldn't help it." She smiles.
"I'm just picking it's really ok that you told Casey." I smile leaning over for a kiss.
"So I was thinking about how we can tell my parents. How about I take a pic of the house and have one made with a front door key and put it in a box and give it as a fake present?" She said.
"Whatever you want to do. I mean my dad isn't going to tell so my mom doesn't know either." I said.
"My parents will be so shocked and excited but confused." She laughed.
"I need to talk to Noah to see if he wants to take this place over," I said as I pull her feet across my legs.
"And I need to talk to Maddie about taking over my place back home." She said.

"This is really happening!" I smile over at her.
"It is. I told Casey for once in my life I'm following my heart." She smiles.
Her phone pings and she looks down. "Mom wants us to come over she made dinner. Chicken and dumplings." She said.
"That sounds delicious! I'm going to go clean up." I said standing up heading to the bedroom.
She follows me into the room and changes her shirt and pulls her hair back up again. I walk up behind her and wrap my arms around her and kiss the side of her neck.
"Are you ready to go Jace?" She asked.
"I'm ready if you're ready," I said pulling her close and kissing her lips.
We head down to my truck and once inside she slides over to the middle beside me and puts her lap belt on.
I smile over at her and pull out. Driving down the road she puts her hand on my leg and smiles at me. "I think my parents will be happy to hear we are a thing." She said.
"They have to already know but I guess saying it will mean more huh?" I said pulling into their driveway.
"Yeah, I think it will mean more." She leans over and kisses me.
I kiss her again before we get out and head inside. "Mom we are here." She said.
"Come in! Food is almost done." Mila hollers out from the kitchen.
Henry is sitting in his favorite chair in front of the tv. I walk over and sit down with him while Willow goes into the kitchen.
"So you and my princess huh?" Henry grinned.
"Yeah, thanks for that. Whatever you said to her she took it to heart and she decided to follow her heart." I smiled.

"I don't think I need to tell you to not hurt her Jace." He said.
"No sir you don't. I've loved Willow for a long time and I don't plan to let her go." I said.
"I'm happy to hear that. Now let's go eat." He said.
We joined the ladies in the kitchen and Mila had a spread of food out like it was thanksgiving.
"This smells really good Mila," I said.
"Thanks, Jace! Grab you a seat." She smiled.
Henry and I sit down and waited for the women to take their seats. I watched Willow grab drinks and silverware before joining us.
"Mom this looks really great and smells good too even though I just had pizza at Casey's a bit ago." She laughs.
"You always could eat Willow. How was your visit?" Mila asked.
"Oh we had such a good time and those kids are cute. I took them some ornaments and they loved them." Willow said.
"So you know I cooked and invited you over because I have an agenda." Mila laughed.
"Of course you do mom." Willow laughed.
"I had no part in this." Henry laughed.
"Inquiring minds want to know what's going on with you two." She smiled.
"Inquiring minds huh Mila? That sounds like horse shit." Henry laughed.
We all laughed and then Willow laid her fork down and looked over at me and grabbed my hand. "Mom since you want to know... We are together as in a couple and we are going to figure it out all out." Willow said.
Mila squealed and clapped her hands. "I knew it. Ok, I'm good now let's eat." She smiled.
The rest of the meal went smooth and then Ben walked in. "Why wasn't I invited?"
"Oh, honey it was for couples." Mila smiles.
"Oh shit so since I'm not a couple with anyone I can't have any food?" Ben asks.
"That's right son," Henry said.
We all laugh and then Mila tells him it was a joke to grab a plate.
We finished eating and I hung out with Henry and Ben while Willow helped her mom clean up. Afterward, she went to her room and was gone a long time so I decided to find her.
When I did she was on the phone I assume talking to Maddie. She smiles and motioned me into the room. I laid across the bed and dozed off to the sound of her voice.
When I woke up she was cuddled up beside me with the lights off and the door shut. I looked at the clock and it was 3 am. Guess we are staying here tonight.
I closed my eyes and went back to sleep.
