Chapter 1: Mark Meeting Her Second Family

Nicole and Mark weren't like all the other happy couples you see. Theirs were complicated by miles, by doubts, by teary conversions (mostly on her part) but when they gotten to be together it was like Heaven. Today, Nicole was going to church just like every Sunday morning, but this morning was different. It always hard when she came back home from seeing him. She texted him, his good morning message and proceeded to get dressed. She knew she wouldn't get a morning text from him, but she smiled anyways. Then she took a picture and posted it on Instagram, and labeled it with song lyrics, "If I Didn't Have You".

Her grandmother from the church greeted her with a hug, asked how her trip went, and how Mark was. Her pawpaw was next, teasing her about Mark tying her up and to keep her there. She giggled, hugged them both, told them about her amazing week. "You know Nicole, he's going to marry you, one of these days." her pawpaw said, "And he will have to get my blessing, first." "George stop teasing her, she misses him, you can see it in her eyes. She wants to cry, but you know how she's always strong."

Nicole went to do her daily duties, getting the snacks out, helping her pawpaw, getting coffee for her grandmother and that sort of thing. A few minutes after, she was showing the pictures she took of the beach, and how happy she was. Another member of the church came through the door, she looked kinda nervous. "Ms. Jane, are you okay?" Nicole asked the woman, and all she could do was shake her head.

At that time Nicole's phone went off, "And You're Screaming, Give it to me baby, Give it to me Motherfucker." she jumped because she usually turned the sound off, before heading into church. "Shit! Really bae!" Nicole said in her mind, the sound was the song "Gorilla" by Bruno Mars, she knew it was him. She apologized for the sound, and went to go outside, when she saw someone she never thought she would see in her church. She always dreamed it would happen, but knowing how he's a non-believer, it would never happen.

"What are" that was the only words she could get out, before he crushed his lips onto her's. "Are you surprised?" he asked her, as he saw the tears in her eyes. "Baby, I missed you, even though I was just with you a few days ago." "I know beautiful." He couldn't take his eyes off of her, she was dressed in a halter top dress, with her 6 inch heels.

Her grandmother limped her way to see what the commotion was, when she saw him. Granted, Mark was almost 30 years older than Nicole, they were an adorable couple. "Mark?" she asked and hugged him. "Yes ma'am, how do you do? It's so nice to finally meet you, Nicole has told me all about her Mawmaw. he replied back. "Excuse us, you will hopefully get to talk more later. Now, I gotta go introduce him to pawpaw." she happily walked hand in hand with Mark by her side. "Pawpaw, I would like you to be introduced to my world, Mark." the men shook hands, and talked for a short time, before Nicole grabbed Mark again.

"Come on baby, you know how I am the greeter, you will be my helper." she giggled up to him. "I love that giggle, missy!" She was preparing herself for the worst, she knew some won't accept Mark, but she didn't care. You can tell she was happy, everyone who was present at that time knew.

In walked Howard, oh how Nicole loved that elderly man, she had told Mark all about him, and how he was going to leave her in a few weeks. That started a thing between them, for Nicole also suffers with BPD, and she had asked Mark not to leave her. Mark always reassured her that he would never leave. "Hey, Trouble!" she poked the elderly man, that was their relationship, poking each other. "OF Course, you just had to poke me first" he replied and took the paper. "I can't wait to go back to Canada, so you can stop poking me. Oh, who is this giant beside you?" "Mark Calaway, Nicole's boyfriend. She has told me all about you, and how we are somewhat alike. I like you, because you make her happy. She always told me that you did this, or you did that at game night. She adores you, and will really miss you when you leave." "Aw, aren't you a sweetheart, well you can poke your boyfriend today, huh?" "Shut up Howard, and go get your coffee. Baby, you don't have to stand here with me, if you don't want to. Oh, and it's 3rd Sunday, which means food, if you can stay." "Baby girl, I have all the time in the world, I don't have to be back in Orlando until 2 more weeks." he hugged her, because she had started to cry again.

More people were filling the church, Mark had met the preachers. Her favorite preacher was there and also the current preacher, she was so happy and it was just starting. The church phone rang, she went to go get it, while handing the papers to Mark. "Yes, ma'am, I'll be right there." she said as she hung the phone up. "Carry, carry!" her pawpaw joked, as he did every Sunday. She went out to help carry food in, she never realized Mark was behind her. "Oh, Nicole! Who's that man behind you?" the elderly lady asked. "Great going, nothing like the present" she mumbled under her breath. "Well Wanda, this is Mark." "Oh that guy, you always see every year? Don't you think." "Stop, right there, I know what you are going to say. Mark is almost 30 years older than me, but I don't care. I love him, been for 4 years. He's saved me from doing things, you don't even know him. Please stop judging him, he's not hurting me, and never will!" she cried out, this time Mark was furious. Nicole had told him about that woman, and he had some words for her. "Excuse me, Ms. Wanda right? Well I didn't introduce myself, I am Mark Calaway, I am indeed Nicole's boyfriend. She's my life, my everything. I know the age difference, but it doesn't matter. Since we are outside of church, I am an Asshole. I won't put up with people trying to get me and Nicole to break up. I have met her grandparents in there, they love me, they see that I make her happy. You on the other hand, we just met and you want to break us apart, sorry honey, but won't happen." the elder lady huffed, thanked Nicole for carrying things in, and went off to do other things.

After Mark and her Mawmaw calmed her down, they returned to hand out the papers. Mr. Charlie came through the doors, bear hugged Nicole, and called her babe. "Hey, you! I'm so happy you're back, I missed you! Baby, this is Mr. Charlie, my boyfriend on Sundays." Mark chuckled, and proceeded to shake the elder's hand. "So, you're "the boyfriend" that I hear about? I always get a text from her, about Mr. Charlie. Nice to meet you, I'm Mark Calaway, her real boyfriend." they laughed, as Mark left with Charlie "Oh Boy" Nicole thought, something was going to happen.
