Max and Baron were on a new case. Roman had asked her to get a week off so they could go and spend time with her parents. The twins, Dean, and Seth were going as well. David had even asked him to invite his family. The girls and Dina still didn't know what was going on. Landing in Florida, they shared a car to their parents home. His family would be coming tomorrow.

"I'm so glad you got the week babe. Thank you again", Roman said.

"Of course", Max said, kissing him gently.

Getting to their parents house. They walked in. They all hugged and suspiciously the guys walked out with David.

"What are they up to?", Brie asked.

"I don't know, your dad has been acting so weird", their mom said.

Nikki gasped.

"You don't think one of the guys will propose, do you?", Nikki asked.

Brie smiled and so did their mom. Max was a little nervous. She knew she loved Roman and she knew she would say yes, but she had a feeling this had nothing to do with them.

"Who do you think will propose?", their mom asked.

"I have a feeling it will be Seth, because honestly Dean freaks out if I even mention rings or weddings.", Brie said.

"Maybe that's why he freaks out Brie, because he's getting ready to propose. I don't think it's Seth", Nikki said.

"Or Roman", their mom said.

Max looked at her mom.

"No", the twins said.

Their mom gave them a look.

"He would have asked you and dad, he seems like that kind of man", Nikki said.

"He invited his family", their mom said.

The twins gasped and hugged Max.

"How exciting, the one we never thought would get married, is going to be the first one", Nikki said.

"No. I really don't think that's what this is", Max said as her twin sisters hugged her.


David had taken the guys outside. He made sure none of the girls followed them.

"So, how's planning?", David asked.

"We've got everything done. Seth is picking up the flowers tomorrow morning. I've got the cake and Roman is helping set up and waiting for the caterers", Dean said.

David nodded.

"What about the dress for the bride? What are the girls wearing? What are we wearing?", Seth asked.

"I've got that all figured out. The dress won't be over the top like our first wedding, but I've got it. I have my daughters sizes, we just have to pick them up today. As for you guys, I have a friend who owns a tux shop. I just take you down there and he'll fit something on you", he said.

The guys nodded.

"Nervous?", Roman asked him.

"Oh yeah. This feels like the first time", he said.

"Mr. Garcia, I've been meaning to ask you", Seth said.

Seth took a deep breath before continuing. He pulled the box out of his pocket.

"I would like to ask Nikki to marry me", Seth said.

David smiled and nodded.

"You have my blessing", David said, before hugging him.

He looked at all three men.

"One down, two more to go", he said.

Dean had a look of pure fear on his face.

"You don't want to be married?", David asked him.

"Its just, I, it", Dean didn't know what to say.

"It scares him", Seth said.

"His parents divorced and it was messy", Roman said.

"Still is", Dean mumbled.

"Not every marriage is like that. You just have to know when to give and take.", David said.

Dean nodded.

"My wife and I aren't perfect. We have our fights, we had a really big one before Max left to join the Marines. She didn't want her to go and I encouraged her to do what she wanted.", he said.

They nodded.

"A little advice. Don't ever go to bed angry. Fix it, talk it out", David said.

The guys nodded.

"I'm not saying this to get you to rethink marriage. I just want you to know not all marriages end badly or end at all", David said.

Dean nodded.


Max and Roman were getting ready for bed. Her mom had convinced her dad to let the guys sleep in the same room as his daughters. Roman had snuck off with the guys and her dad after dinner.

"So where did you guys go?", Max asked.

She was rubbing lotion on her legs.

"Your dad wanted to go to a bar. He finally has guys to hang with", Roman said.

Max nodded. Believable, she thought. Her dad had his friends, but he had never had sons. There was a difference.

"Roman", Max said, using the tone he knew well.

The, I know your lying to me tone. He looked over at her.

"It's something you are going to love and a secret your dad wants me to keep. Please don't make me tell you, your dad likes me", he said.

She smiled and nodded.

"Fine", she sighed.

He grabbed her ankles and pulled her between his legs.

"Watching you put lotion on is doing something to me", he whispered.

He laid her back and on top of her.

"Marry me?", she asked.

He lifted up on his elbows and stared at her.

"What?", he asked.

"I love you", she said.

"Maxine", he said.

He pushed himself up and sat down. She sat up.

"Forget it", she said quickly.

She was going to get up, but he stopped her.

"I want to say yes, I do, but I really wanted to be the one to ask", he said.

She crossed her legs.

"I just, I imagined the look on your face when I do. I wanted to talk to your parents before I do it, but if you want to get engaged now, then my answer is yes", he said.

She placed her hand against his cheek. He turned and kissed her palm.

"Since you put it that way, I'll wait till you ask", she said, laughing softly.

He chuckled. Leaning in, he kissed her.

"I will ask you, you don't have to worry about that", he said.

She nodded.


Roman's family arrived on time and dressed. The twins and Max were confused till their dad walked in with their dresses.

"The guys helped me plan a vow renewal. Your mom and I are getting married again.", he said.

The twins hugged him, followed by Max. She lightly pushed Roman and he shrugged with a smile. They had sent Dina out with Patricia to a spa. Patricia would bring her home once they sent her the text. Roman was putting on the suit, while Max slipped into the dress. He watched her fix her hair and smiled.

"Absolutely beautiful", he said.

She looked at him in the mirror. She blushed at the way he was looking at her. She walked over to him and fixed his tie.

"I have a secret", he said.

She looked up at him.

"One you can tell me?", she asked.

"Not really, but I feel bad I couldn't tell you about your parents vow renewal", he said.

"What is it? If you tell me my mom's pregnant, I swear I'm going to scream", she said.

He laughed.

"No one is pregnant", he said.

She laughed softly.

"Seth is going to propose tonight", he whispered.

"Really?", she asked.

He nodded.

"Nikki is going to be so happy", Max said.


Everything was set. They were just waiting for their mom to get home. Walking in through the front door. She noticed her daughters and the guys dressed.

"What's going on?", she asked.

Brie went over to her.

"Dad planned a vow renewal for you guys. Your dress is in your room, ready for you", Brie said.

Their mom had tears in her eyes and hugged her girls. Patricia took her up to her room and helped her get dressed while she dressed as well. Max followed Roman into the kitchen and watched as he snuck a bit of frosting.

"I'm telling", she said.

He smiled and laughed.

"Making sure it's not poisoned", he said.

"Good thinking", she said.

He leaned back against the counter.

"You know, I heard there was a pipe in here that needed fixing", she smirked.

His smile grew. She walked over to him and kissed him.

"What time does your wife get home?", she asked.

"Not for a few hours", he played along.

"Gives me plenty of time to fix your pipe", she said.

He laughed.

"Hey you two, mom's about ready", Nikki said.

Roman and Max made their way out. Brie was fixing their mom's makeup. Nikki fixed their mom's hair.

"Ok, you ready?", Brie asked.

Their mom nodded. More of their family had arrived. Baron walked in.

"Hey Baron", Dina said.

"Hey mama Garcia, you look nice.", Baron said.

"Thank you", she replied.

He looked at Max. Something happened, something bad. He walked over to her.

"What's wrong?", Max asked.

"We need to go", he whispered.

Her heart dropped.

"She can't. Babe you can't, your mom is more important right now.", Roman whispered.

"He's right B. Just let the ceremony end", Max said.

Baron sighed, but nodded.
