Chapter 8

JamiePOV:

Thrusday night. Caitlin's school program. She was dressed nice. We had to leave early. I took her to the room she had to go to, then I went to the auditium. I saw Landon and Max. "Hey." I said walking up to them. "Hi." Landon said giving me a kiss. "Hi Jamie." Max said. "Well hello Max." I said and "And how are you?" "Ok." He said. "That's good, and by the way, you look very handsome." I made him blush. It was almost seven so we headed into the auditium. We sat together and waited for the show to start. When the curtains finally opened, I found Caitlin right away. I pointed her out to Landon. The children sang songs about a period in history. Then when they finished, they took a bow and the curtains closed. We got up to leave and went to find Caitlin. "Mama." She said over a crowd of people. She ran up to us. "You were very good." I said hugging her. "Thank you." She replied. "Yes, Caitlin, You were very good." Landon said. "Thank you too."

Landon POV:

Thrusday night. Jamie told me that Caitlin had a school program. So I made supper and we left. I got to the auditium and didn't see Jamie. I was about to leave when I heard her voice. "Hey." She said. "Hi." I told her. "Hi Jamie." Max said. When we first started dating, he kept wanting to call her Mrs. Fisher, but she told him that he could call her Jamie. "Well, hello Max." She said and " How are you?" He replied and then she made him bashful. Jamie told us that it was time for it to start. So we found a seat and watched the kids sing about a period in history. When the finished, we left to find Caitlin. She came over to us and we told her that we liked the program. "How about we go out for some ice cream?" Jamie suggested. We all nodded our heads. We went out to our cars and went to the Dairy Cream. We each got an ice cream cone and sat at a booth. We talked and then left. Max and Caitlin get in the cars and Jamie stops me before getting in. "Landon, I want you to meet my parents." She said fixing my shirt. "Ok, when?" I asked taking her hand. "In two weeks." She said and "I call you with more details." "Ok. Bye Jamie." I said. "Bye Landon." She said. We kissed and left. So I was going to meet the Sullivans.

Jamie POV:

I called Landon and gave him all the details. I told him he could bring Max since Caitlin was going too. Anyways that night. I went to my parent's house. Landon was coming later. "Mom, do you need any help?" Jamie asked. "No, you go play with Caitlin and Alex." She said. Alex was my brother's daughter. My sister is the only single and childless person in my family. She's more of a career person. Anyways, I heard a car pull up. I looked out the window and saw that it was Landon's. "He's here." I said going to the door. When I heard footsteps on the porch, I opened the door. "Hey." "Hi Jamie." He said giving me a kiss. "I see you brought Max." I said. "Yeah." "Everyone. This is Landon and his son Max." I said. "Landon, Max, this my father, my mother, my sister Kelly, my brother, Allan, and his wife, Krista, and their daughter Alex." "Max." I heard Caitlin say behind me and ask me "Mom, can Max come play with us?" "Well, if Landon said it is ok." I said. Landon said yes and they ran into the living room. My father started to talk to Landon and my mother started to talk to me. "My Jamie, he is handsome. Too bad he has a child." "What does that mean?" I asked. "You don't really expect your relationship to go any farther with him having a child, do you?" She asked. My mother can be very old-fashion. "Mom, I have a chid." I said. "Yes, but he was married to someone else." She said. "So was I." I said. "Jamie, he slept with someone else before you, you don't want that kind fo a man do you?" She asked. "Mom, it doesn't make a difference to me. He is a wonderful man and a good father to Max. He also treats Caitlin with respect and like one of his own. He would never hurt me in anyway. Now you keep your judgement to yourself and let the rest of us enjoy our dinner." I finally said. She was shocked. I walked out of the room for awhile.

Landon POV:

I was nervous to meet Jamie's family. I didn't want them to think I was a bad person. I pulled up at the house of the address Jamie had given me. We got out and Jamie opened the door when we were on the porch. She introduced us to her family. Max went to play with Caitlin. I saw Jamie start talking to her mother and her father started to talk to me. "Well, Landon, what do you do for a living?" He asked. "I'm in advertising." I said. "I see you have a son." He said. "Yes, he is eight and very shy." I said. "So you were married before?" He asked. "Yes, but she died over a year ago." I said. We talked about a few other things. "The reason I'm asking you these questions is because Jamie is my little girl and I want to know about the men she sees and what their intentions are for her. She lost someone really dear to her and I don't want her to be hurt again. Ok?" He said. "Yes, Mr. Sullivan. My intentions for your daughter are very good. I would never hurt in anyway. She is the best person I've met since my wife. She's fun to hang out with. Plus I love her daughter as one of my own." I said. "Good my boy." He said putting a hand over my shoulders. He led me to the dinner table. We ate dinner and then went to the living room for coffee and dessert. I saw Jamie sneak out the back door when they were clearing dishes. I went to follow her.

Jamie POV:

I was still upset at what my mother said that I went outside for some fresh air. I heard the back door open and I saw Landon stepping out. "What's wrong?" He asked. "My mother doesn't think you are right for me." I said. "Why did she say that?" He asked standing beside me. "Because, you have a son." I replied and "She is old-fashioned." "Do you think I'm right for you?" He asked. "Yes." I said. "Yes?" He asked. "Because you are sweet and gentle and treat Caitlin so nice. You would make a perfect dad for her." I said and "Do you think I'm right for you?" "Yes. Same reasons." He said. "Landon, I really like you. I don't my mother to scare you away. She was like this when Rodney came for supper." I said and "I love you Landon." I grapped the collar of his shirt. "Marry me." He said. "What?" I asked stepping back. "I love you you too. I want you to marry me." He replied.

P.S. What da ya Think? :)
