A/N: first of all i wanna thank giftiebee and gurl42069 for giving me the best news ever! John finally came to his senses and dropped the horse :)...oh yeah ENJOY!
Taby opened John's room door and walked in. She tripped over something and cursed out loud.
"Mother fucker."
"This is why people turn on the lights before they enter a dark room." John said and went over and helped her up.
"Who the hell leaves sneakers in the middle of the floor?" She complained.
"Hey, it's my room."
Taby began to look around John's room. "I'm sorry; I thought Hurricane Katrina was in New Orleans. I didn't know it hit your room too. She sarcastically said.
"So I haven't tidy up in a bit…"
"A bit?"
"Ok at all. But can you blame me I'm never home."
"Exactly, you're never home. So how could your room get this dirty?"
"Man, you really do sound like my wife."
Before Taby could say something else, John's mom called them downstairs.
"My dad's probably home." He said.
Taby and John went downstairs. They went into the living room and sitting on the couch was John's dad. He walked up to them.
"You must be Tabatha. It's nice to meet you."
"Thanks, you too." She smiled.
Soon Carol walked in to tell them that dinner was ready.
"So Tabatha you're in college." John Sr. started a conversation
"Yes. I'm studying nursing."
"Is this gonna be your first year?
"Yes it is. I start soon actually.
"So do you get to wear those little nurse outfits?' Sean asked smirking.
"Yeah, you know the one with the short skirt and tight blouse and the kaleidoscope." Matt commented as he smiled.
"That's stethoscope, you moron." John said.
"Um no I won't be wearing that." Taby answered them.
"Aww man that sucks." Steve joined in the conversation.
"I don't think you should be in the medical field." Dan told her.
Taby looked at him confused. "Why not?"
"Well one look at you and you can give someone a heartache; I mean you're that beautiful."
"What is it? Flirt with John's fiancée day?" John asked the jealousy obvious in his tone and Taby smiled to herself.
"So uh John you said you were going to propose to Tabatha; you never told us she said yes." John Sr. said.
Taby looked at John with surprise in her eyes. He stared at her, sensing that this was going to cause even more awkwardness and then answered his father.
"I ah, I just wanted to…you know…tell you guys in person."
"So did you guys set a place and date for the wedding yet?" Carol asked them.
"No we haven't. We're still deciding." Taby answered.
"I think you guys should get married in Iceland." Steve spoke up.
"Yeah, I heard it was all ice there." Matt commented.
"Umm how bout no?" John told them and Taby had to laugh.
Carol started to clear off the dinner table and Taby got up to help. They carried the dishes into the sink and they started to clean up. After everything was finished Taby asked if there was anything else that needed to be done.
"Is there anything else I can help you with?"
"No, dear. I'm all set." Carol smiled.
"Ok well if you need anything just ask." Taby smiled back and then went upstairs to take a shower.
Taby hadn't been gone for long but for Becca it seemed like she left forever ago. They never went anywhere without the other. So Becca was bored out of her mind to say the least. She didn't have to work at the restaurant tonight so she was free. She thought about calling up some friends to hangout with but figured they were busy or something. Becca then decided to call Nathan to ask him to come over. She picked up her phone off of the coffee table. She scrolled down to his number. Her finger was placed on the call button but she hesitated to press it.
"Maybe he's already got plans with his buddies." She thought.
She placed the phone back down and got up off the couch. Soon the phone started ringing and Becca jumped, startled by it. She picked it up and the ID read Nathan. She smiled and then answered it.
"Hello?"
"Hey, what's up?"
"Nothing much, just bored."
"Where's Taby?"
"She went to Mass for a couple of weeks so it's just me here."
"Well do you wanna go to Missouri tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow? I thought we weren't going for another two weeks."
"Well yeah but my brother has to go back to work soon and I want you to meet the whole family. Besides it's better than being by yourself."
"True. Yeah sure, why not?"
"Great." He smiled. "Pack tonight and I'll come over to pick you up in the morning."
"Ok. I'll see you later then. Bye."
"Bye."
After she got off the phone with Nathan, Becca started to pack.
Taby walked out of the bathroom in a towel to find John sitting on the bed.
"Oh I'm so sorry. I'll leave." He got up and headed for the door.
"Wait." She stopped him.
"What?" He turned around to look at her. Which wasn't an easy task, considering that Taby was still in her towel. If it were up to him, that towel would be on the floor right now.
"Is it true?"
"Is what true?"
"Were you really going to propose to me?"
John looked at her not knowing what to say. So he just kept quiet. He began to open the door when Taby spoke again.
"You didn't answer my question."
"Yes. I was going to propose."
"Oh." Her voice soft.
"Yeah." He said staring at the floor.
"Where's the ring?" She asked.
"I don't know."
"What?"
"I said I don't know."
"How could you not know where the ring is? You did buy a ring didn't you?"
"Of course I bought a ring. Who proposes without a ring?"
"Well then how come you don't know where it is?"
"What does it matter? There's no use for it now." He replied with a little bit of attitude in his voice.
"What's your problem?" She asked noticing the attitude he was given.
"Nothing."
"Whatever." She sighed.
She went over to her bag and took out some clothes. She went back into the bathroom to get dressed. When she came out, John went into the bathroom to shower.
"This is going to be a nightmare." Taby thought.
"Why the hell did I agree to do this?" She asked herself.
She decided to watch some T.V to get her mind off of things. About thirty minutes later John came out of the bathroom and noticed that Taby had fallen asleep. He picked her up off of the couch he had in his room and placed her on the bed.
After she was all settled, John went around the other side and got into bed. He took off the lights and laid there waiting to fall asleep.
