A/N: After getting a few requests, I'm turning 'Two Hour Honeymoon' and 'All Forgiveness' into a complete story. I've had ideas for this. This story is my first multi-chapter of this fandom. Chapter one will be a more detailed version of 'Two Hour Honeymoon.'


Sat in the corner of the local Waffle House was the East High School drama department. They celebrated their opening night of Once Upon a Mattress. The cast sat around, singing Song of Love from the show. Gina Porter, the Winnifred the Woebegone of the evening, was running through the choreography as it came up.

Ashlyn Caswell turned to her friend Kourtney Green. "Have you seen Big Red?" Ashlyn asked. "I road with him, but I haven't seen him since he got our table. I don't even think he ordered."

Kourtney swallowed the hash brown in her mouth. "I think I saw him go out back," she stated.

"Thanks," Ashlyn said. She exited the Waffle House through the back door. She spotted her boyfriend hovering over a poster board. He wasn't facing her, so he didn't see her exit. "Biggie?"

"Ash?" Big Red called. "Crud. You weren't supposed to see this yet."

"See what?" Ashlyn asked. Big Red turned around, holding a poster board. In big letters, it spelled 'Prom?' Ashlyn felt her heart melt. The prom was going to be next weekend. Ashlyn almost forgot it since the spring musical took up most of her time. She thought Big Red had forgotten about it, too; that's why he didn't ask. She figured they'd be going to prom together either way.

"It's lame and cliche," Big Red said. "I know. I should have done something bigger, but all the good ideas were already down."

"I love it," Ashlyn said.

"You do?" Big Red asked.

"Yes," Ashlyn said. She was smiling a wide smile. "It's perfect."

"So, is this a yes?" Big Red asked.

"Yes," Ashlyn said. She ran over, and the couple shared a kiss.


After an hour, everyone left the Waffle House. Ashlyn caught a ride home with Big Red. She only had two more weeks until she could get her license. "Did I tell you how talented you are?" Big Red asked.

"You might have mentioned it," Ashlyn joked. "But you were also great. My talented boyfriend."

The couple stopped at a red light. The couple's fingers intertwined. Big Red placed a kiss on her head, and Ashlyn leaned into the kiss. "I love you," Big Red whispered.

"I love you, too," Ashlyn said. The stop light changed to green, and Big Red started to drive again. A slow song was playing on the radio. It was a beautiful night. The couple always took a long way home.

Suddenly, Ashlyn shouted out, "Look out!" That night, Big Red felt his world turn upside-down.
