Lennon and Randy were driving to Parma to Lennon's mom's house. Lennon was driving.

"Are you nervous?" Lennon asked.

"Don't be."

"I have to make a good impression on her."

"I tell her good things."

"Yeah, now." "Did you ever talk to her about me before we started going out?"

"Yeah but I've told her you've changed. "You're not that guy anymore."

"I just want her to like me."

"She will."

"What's your mom's name again?"

"Scarlett."

"You have nothing to worry about honey, my mom will love you.."

Lennon and Randy had just walked through Scarlett's door.

"We're here mom." Lennon said. They went into the living room.

"Hi Lennon." Scarlett said.

"Hi." They hugged.

"I missed you."

"I missed you to."

"This must be Randy." "Boy, your tall."

"It's nice to meet you Mrs. Ryan." Randy said.

"Miss Mason, I went back to my maiden name years ago." "You can call me Scarlett."

"Mom are those pork chops I smell?" Lennon asked.

"Yes I'm making those, red potatoes and corn."

Lennon turned to Randy. "You're gonna love my mom's cooking."

Ten minutes later they were sitting at the kitchen table eating.

"I've really missed your cooking mom." Lennon said. "Randy tried to cook dinner for me on my birthday." "He almost burned down the apartment." She said smiling.

"Excuse me for wanting to do something sweet for you." He said jokingly.

"It was sweet."

After dinner Lennon took Randy up to her bedroom.

"This is a nice room." Randy said.

"I miss it."

Randy saw her pom-poms on the wall. "You were a cheerleader?" He said smirking.

"Yeah, why?" "Does it turn you on?" She asked smiling.

"Actually yes."

"Are you gonna use that as a mental image when you're in your room alone at night?" She said teasingly.

"Len." He said smiling.

"I know those cold showers don't work every time." They kissed.

They were spending the night. Lennon was in the shower. Scarlett and Randy were talking in the living room. He told her where he was from and what he did for a living.

"You seem like a very nice person Randy." Scarlett said. "You're in love with Lennon aren't you?"

"Yes I am." "Please don't tell her." "I haven't told her yet." "I know she's told you about my past but you don't have to worry, I'd never hurt her."

Randy was taking a shower. Lennon and Scarlett were doing the dishes..

"So what do you think?" Lennon asked.

"He's very nice." "He's cute." "You seem happier with him then you were with Montgomery."

"I am." "It's different with Randy." "I've never felt this way before." "Did I show you what he gave me for my birthday?"

"No." She showed her the ring. "That's beautiful." "Are you in love with him?"

"Yes." "I haven't said it yet."

"Why?"

"I'm scared."

"Why?"

"What if he doesn't love me?"

"Are you kidding me?" "Of course he does." "I can tell just by the way he looks at you."

Lennon made up the couch for Randy. They were getting ready for bed.

"I like your mom." Randy said.

"She likes you to."

"I'm glad we came here."

"Me to." "This couch is very comfortable." "You'll sleep great on it." They kissed. "Goodnight."

"Goodnight."

The next morning Randy had been up for five minutes. He was laying there. Lennon came downstairs

"Are you awake honey?" She asked.

"Yeah." "Come here." She laid down next to him. They were facing each other. "Morning."

"Morning." They started kissing. They didn't hear Scarlett come downstairs. She saw them kissing.

"No conceiving grandchildren in the living room." She said jokingly. They broke the kiss and started laughing.

Scarlett made them breakfast. They were getting ready to leave.

"You two have a safe trip." Scarlett said.

"We will." Lennon said. "I love you."

"I love you too." "Randy you can come back anytime."

"I'll be taking you up on that." Randy said. They left.
