"I can't wait for you to meet my parents." Said Zoey to Mike as they both walk down a small neighborhood in the suburbs on the sidewalk as the sun sets.

"You're going to love them, Mike, and they're going to love you." She then utters to herself, "At least, I hope they do."

Mike responds with a nervous smile and chuckle, "Can't wait!" He then puts on a reluctant look, only when Zoey's not looking at him.

They arrive at a lovely, two story house with a flat roof, with bushes and flowers lining the walkway. It is very inviting. "Well, we're here!" Zoey said proudly as she showed her boyfriend her abode.

"This is your house?" said Mike in a surprised, but slightly nervous, tone.

Zoey walks up to the front door. Before she could even touch the knob, she turns around and notices Mike standing at the start of the walkway, hesitant. Concerned, the indie chick walks back down to have a heart-to-heart with her beau.

Zoey: (concerned) "Mike. What's wrong?"

Mike: "I don't know. I… it's just…" (Sigh) "I just don't think I should go in there."

Zoey: "Why?"

Mike: (nervously) "Well, because of what happened… my actions… what I did during the 'ROTI' and 'All Stars' seasons. I doubt your parents will like me after they saw that, especially 'All Stars'."

Zoey: "Mike, you have nothing to worry about. That's all in the past. My parents are very nice people. And I'm positive that they'll love you just as much as I do."

She embraces her hands around the MPD's and they smile and gaze at each other to reassure themselves that it'll be alright. Zoey knocks on the door and her parents open it, standing right at the doorway. Her mom greatly resembles Zoey, except she has brown hair in a bob cut. She is dressed in a business suit: khaki colored blazer and skirt over a hot pink shirt, and black high heels. Her dad is a tall (she and her mom slightly reach past his broad shoulders) and very muscular man. He is wearing a red, sleeveless polo shirt, olive drab green cargo shorts, and moccasins. His face is almost like a caricature of Chuck Norris.

"Mom. Dad." said Zoey "I would like you guys to meet Mike."

Mike nervously rubs the back of his head and waves sheepishly. "Hi." He said awkwardly.

Zoey's mom approaches him first with utmost delight. "Oh, look at you!" She shakes his hand wildly. "It's so nice to meet you! Oh, you look so handsome." Mike arm is still shaking even after Zoey's mom stopped and let go of his hand; Zoey steadies it still. Her mom walks to the kitchen.

"So, you must be Mike." Said Zoey's dad looming over him with his arms folded and his face in a grimace. "I never thought I'd meet you face to face."

"Neither did I." responded the former MPD, timidly. "But... it is a pleasure to finally meet you in person." Mike holds his hand out for his girlfriend's dad to shake. Zoey's father grasps Mike's hand firmly; Zoey is standing there watching this happen and smiles at Mike, as if to tell him that he had nothing to worry about. They hear a crack and Mike starts to go down on his knees and squeals in pain. Zoey looks to see her dad squeezing Mike's hand.

Zoey: (clearing throat) "Dad!"

The father looks and notices his daughter glaring at him. He quickly lets go of Mike's hand and apologizes.

Zoey's dad: (submissively) "Sorry, honey."

The indie chick relaxes her intimidating countenance and dons a smile once more.

Zoey's dad: (happily, smiling) "You guys are just in time for dinner." (Leans in close to Mike to look him in the eye, threateningly) "It's to die for."

He gives Mike an 'I have my eyes on you' gesture and walks back inside the house. Zoey, seeing this all, lifts Mike back up and gives him a little comfort.

"Well, at least my mom likes you." She chuckles nervously to cheer her date up, but fails trying. After she stops laughing, she face-palms herself in embarrassment.
