Return Of The Soldier

Seven: The Parents Pt.1

John was nervous but at the same time he wasn't. He tried to find nice clothes to wear for tonight. He had dinner with Mickie's many times heck Lillian and his mother were BFF's since his mother came to town. So it wasn't rare for the family's to get together in holidays with Steve and Uncle Glenn. But he understood this was different Mickie was his girlfriend now and Dwayne was not going to be looking at him as Mark's Son but as his daughter's boyfriend.

He heard a knock on the door and he opened it to see his brothers standing there.

"Seriously don't you two have jobs to do?" he asked.

"We do but we heard about dinner and we came to torture you." Randy told him, going in.

"I got evening off actually." Stephen told him. John closed the door and saw as his brothers got comfortable before he went to the fridge. He gave one can to each of his brothers before he sat down.

"You know this will only be for a while I do need to get ready." John told them.

"What you have to woo the pants out of your family in law." Randy said

"Yes." John said. Stephen was quiet, he didn't know if he should say something. Randy and John noticed though.

"What's wrong Stephen?" Randy asked.

"I was in Mickie's shop today." he tells them.

"Oh you went to get your books." Randy told him.

"Did she tell you something?" John asks.

"No she was really happy actually, but you two do understand that I know a lot of things in the town, I observe them." Stephen told them.

"Yes, we know." John said. "What are you getting at?"

"Swagger went to Mickie's bookstore today." Stephen told them.

"What about it?" Randy asked.

"Swagger doesn't read, he doesn't go to the bookstore heck he bad-mouthed it when Mickie opened the thing." he tells them. "Why would he go inside?"

"Maybe he wanted a book, you know how his father wants him to take control of his business you know get something in his brain." Randy said. But John didn't believe that, if Swagger had told Mickie something and she didn't tell him. It had always been normal for Mickie to keep things like that.

"I'll keep an eye on that Stephen." John told him. "Anyway why did you get the day off."

"Oh, um Uncle Steve was going to receive a video call and wanted to be alone in the office." Stephen says and looks to the other side. John doesn't need to know either, well because he knows. If the stare in Randy's face is anything to go by. It had to be Kelly after she left she had not come back, Steve got phone calls and letters and nothing more. To John it seemed like she was scared to come home.

"You can say her name you know it's not like she matters." Randy says and it's enough to tell John that it's complete BS. But he doesn't say anything because he knows that it hurt Randy and the fact that he still in love with her is pretty sad.

"Anyways did Mom tell you about the dinner next week?" John asked.

"Oh yeah, she told all of us Jaylee is really excited since she thinks this is a long thing coming."

"Where is Jaylee I haven't seen her all day?" John asks.

"She left to a dance recital in L.A she will be back next week." Stephen tells him. Randy gets up and so do Stephen because they know they have to leave.

"Good Luck." Randy told him.

"Thanks be careful guys." John tells them.

Later John goes to pick up Mickie and he holds a tray in his hands. He is very thankful his mom dropped by and left him some cookies. She opened the door and smiles at him brightly.

"Hi John." She tells him.

"Mickie." He says and kisses her. She has her larger frames on her face the ones she wore in high school. He doesn't mind and it seems to be better and he wraps his arm around her getting the kiss deeper. Mickie is shocked because she was sure he was just going to give her a peck with her big glasses but that wasn't the case.

"Wow." She tells him when they come up for air.

"Did I ever tell you that I always have liked those glasses." He tells her.

"No you didn't." she tells him.

"Well I like them, I also like the others ones and the times you don't use them." John tells her because he has a feeling that he wants her to be sure.

"Are those your mom's cookies?" Mickie asks.

"Yep, she left them for me in the counter." John tells her.

"Wow you know my mom has been trying to bribe your mom into telling her the recipe." Mickie tells him as they walk together to the elevator.

"A lot of people in town have tried that, heck Wanda and Becky tried to go through the recipe box she has but I think Mom has them in Dad's vault and no one can get in there." John says.

"Oh well." Mickie tells him and as they climb up into the car she gives John a quick kiss that makes him smile.

The drive to Mickie house is a quiet but peaceful ride with both of them singing the songs on the radio and laughing. They arrive and both breathe in.

"You ready to be eaten alive?" Mickie asks with a smile.

"Sure considering you will be eaten alive next week." That make's Mickie blush and John laughs.

They go down and Lillian is already waiting outside with smile on her face. She hugs both of them and John shows her the platter.

"She hasn't given you the recipe has she?" Lillian asks John taking the platter off his hands.

"No, sorry." He tells her. Once they went inside Evan was standing there with his daughter Mary and April his wife standing by his side.

"John, it's been long." Evan tells him.

"Yeah, it has." John tells him shaking his hand. The little girls walks up to him. Mary is barely a year old. Evan picks his little girl up and looks at John.

"This is Mary." He says.

"Hi, Marry." They make the switch and Mary lays her head in John's shoulder. Mickie looks at him and she can't help but smile.

"Well aren't we going to start dinner soon?" they look up to see Dwayne standing by the door. He looks at John and shakes hands with him before getting his granddaughter in his arms.

"Let's go eat." Lillian tells them.

Sitting down on the large table everything is quiet before Mickie and Lillian serve the food. Mickie and John looked at each other and he smiles at her. Dwayne and Lillian notice the way the two move and can't help but smile.

"So what else do you plan to do?" Dwayne asks him.

"I actually like working as a landlord." John tells him. "It is more calming after everything I have seen."

"Oh, so you're looking for peace?" Dwayne asks him.

"Yes, more importantly I'm looking for the feeling of home."

"Have you found it?" Dwayne asks. John smiles at bit.

"Yes I have." John tells him and it makes Mickie blush harder than anyone that she puts her head down. John grabs her hand under the table and smiles at her.

The next conversations are trivial and nothing to do with them. Evan and AJ are able to take the heat off them something both Mickie and John are thankful for. They eat and able to have dessert and all of them are pretty happy. Everything really goes according to plan for all of them. They sit down in the living room. Dwayne looks at everyone before he smiles.

"I have an announcement." Dwayne told them.

"What is it Dad?" Mickie says

"Well I am thinking that the love of my life and I need to get some time off and I wonder if she would like to go with me to Italy for our 30th year anniversary." Dwayne says and it's all he needs before Lillian drops on his lap.

"Of course I will." She tells him and gives him a kiss that has all of the people turning away at the sweet site.

#

When they finally go home, both of them are smiling to the fullest. John wraps his arms Mickie's waist and kisses her like never before. Mickie just gets lost in it. They both do and when they finally break apart, they are both panting.

"I love you." John told her.

"You do?" Mickie asks.

"Yes, I do." he tells her and Mickie smiles.

"I love you too." she tells him.

John answers by giving her another kiss.
