Katey nervously prepared for dinner. Her parents were anxious to meet Katey's new boyfriend. She put on the seafoam green dress, and the white cardigan, and nervously brushed her hair. Susie had helped her straighten it, and make it shine.

"Girls, are you ready?" called Bert from his room

"Almost," Katey yelled with a shaky voice.

She looked in her vanity one last time, and declared she was done. Her parents still had not met him, and she didn't want to be embarrassed. She walked into the living room, and sat down on the couch closest to the door.

"Now, Katey, what is this boy's name again?" asked Jeannie

"Tobey…Tobey Reynolds, mom," Katey replied.

"Now how well do you know this boy?" asked Bert, as he came from his room, straightening his tie.

"Dad, we just met, but I really like him," she answered.

Katey paced across the living room. She stopped at the coffee table, and saw a frilly, pink scrapbook with her name written on it.

"DAD! WHAT IS THIS!" She shrieked.

"It's our photo album honey. It starts from when you were born, up until Havana," Bert replied.

"Is it your life mission to humiliate me!" she continued in the same, high pitched voice.

"Bert! Please, put that album away, now!" Jeannie said in a firm, commanding voice.

Bert placed the album back onto the bookshelf. Jeannie stood in front of the mirror, and continued to examine herself. She had on a dark green dress, with a black ribbon that tied around the waist. Her emerald necklace complimented it well. Her dark brown hair was pulled back into a bun.

Susie and Lucy walked out of Susie's room, both wearing blue dresses. Susie had a lighter blue, and Lucy had a darker blue. The girls were so close, it was as if they were attached at the hip. They both had their hair tied back in braids.

"Don't all my girls look great?" Bert said with a smile. "Stand together girls, let me get some pictures!"

The doorbell rang, and Katey felt as if her heart stopped. She ran to the door, and glanced back at her family.

"PLEASE DON'T EMBARRASS ME!" she begged in one last whisper.

She opened the door, and there stood Tobey, looking drop-dead handsome. He had a brown suit on, and a white shirt. His tie matched the color of Katey's dress. He had a bouquet of pink roses, and a black box. He kissed Katey on the cheek, and walked into her house. He waked over to Jeannie, and handed her the bouquet.

"Happy Birthday Mrs. Miller," he said, "These are for you."

Jeannie smiled.

"Thank you Tobey! That is so sweet!" she said.

He walked over to Katey, and opened the black box, which contained a corsage with two white roses, covered in glitter. It also had silver and green ribbons on it.

"And this," he said, reaching for her arm, "Is for you." He slid the corsage on her wrist, as Bert snapped a picture.

Katey's face lit up with a smile. They type of smile her parents only had seen when she danced with Javier.

"Are we ready to go?" Jeannie asked.

Everyone nodded, and they left the Miller house, headed out for an eventful night.
