A little while after Orlando had left, Keira had gotten up, also taken a shower and had gotten dressed in a fuchsia floral sweetheart neckline blouse and short suit with a brown belt around her waist. She slipped her peach colored painted toes into a pair of tan wedges that matched her outfit beautifully. She placed her blonde hair in a side braid before grabbing her across the shoulder purse and heading to Lisa's room.
"Finally you're here!" Lisa said excitedly as she walked into the hall way and closed her room door. She also looked fabulous in dark skinny jeans with a beige blouse which she covered with a brown leather jacket and nude colored heels. "I was just about to head over and drag you out."
"Sorry I was a bit late" Keira said with a slightly guilty look. "I woke up a little bit late today."
"Yeah, I can tell Ms .Glow" said Lisa as she gave Keira a grin with a raised eye brow. "Wonder what you were doing last night…or who" Lisa finished with an evil grin.
"Lisa!" Keira said as he cheeks turned a light pink which made Lisa laugh uncontrollably.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry" Lisa said as she put her hotel key away still laughing. "Now, let's go before you make the wise choice to stay in." Before Keira could even try to make that choice, Lisa was already dragging her towards the elevator excited to hear everything that happened last night and this morning between Keira and Orlando. Lisa figured that that way she might be able to discover exactly what Orlando was hiding. Too bad she didn't know that Keira didn't have the slightest clue.
As they were driving in Lisa's car to the best Hollywood boutiques, Lisa saw it as the perfect time to do some "investigation."
"So, are you and Orlando happy that you Hollywood's power couple once again?" Lisa asked as she made a right turn when the light turned green.
Keira released a grin which then turned into a smile which increased into a laugh of joy. "Lisa, words cannot express, words cannot describe, and words cannot even begin to explain how…just how happy I am!" Keira said as she used her hands to try and express some emotion. "It's just, I finally have him back. He's mine!"
"And mighty fine if you ask me" Lisa replied with a wink.
"Why aren't we feeling rather bold today?" Keira asked Lisa with a grin as she had noticed her friend's second bold remark.
Lisa laughed. "I'm sorry! It's just that I am just as happy to see you two together. I knew from day one, day ONE Keira!" she started with a pause to let Keira release a few giggles. "From day one I knew that you guys were meant to be and when someone tries to prove otherwise, they're asking for it! No one proves Lisa wrong."
"Thank you, you don't know how much that means to me" Keira said with a smile towards her friend who returned it.
"So, if you don't mind me being to bold" Lisa started once again "where exactly are you two headed? What lies in the future for Korlando?"
Keira stayed quiet as she thought about it herself. She had never really thought about her future with Orlando, she was always two busy enjoying every moment she had with him.
"I don't know. Right now, he and I are just enjoying each other's time and are just happy being in love" Keira replied with a grin. "Whatever obstacles life throws at us, we'll handle together as we have before. Everything we went through has made at stronger so I'm ready to conquer, we're ready to just conquer it all, whatever surprises life hits us with, we can handle."
Lisa smiled as she heard her friend say that but also groaned a little inside upset that she had not been able to find anything valuable that could help her discover what Orlando was planning.
"Yep, any surprises…."
Orlando drove to the restaurant and took a longer route to try and avoid paparazzi. When he saw a few at the front of the restaurant waiting for some other celebrity, he decided to park in the back and enter that way. When he did he saw both of Keira's parents already there.
"Orlando!" Sharman said with joy as she got up, placed a kissed on his check, and hugged him tightly glad to have him part of the family once again. "It's so good to see you again."
Orlando couldn't help but smile at how sweet Sharman was. "Same here. It's great to be back."
"Orlando" Will said with a smile as he shook his hand. "It's good to have you back."
"Thank you it's nice to see you both as well" Orlando finished sitting down as little nervously.
They ordered drinks and meals before they Keira's parents asked Orlando what this was all about.
"Now that you have us both here, what is it that you wanted to talk to us about?" Will asked taking a sip from his coffee.
"I hope it's nothing serious..." Sharman said a bit worried.
Orlando started to grow a bit nervous again but it quickly disappeared as he took a deep breath. "I wanted to talk about Keira."
"What about her? Is she alright?" Sharman asked her maternal worries suddenly kicking in.
"She's perfectly fine" Orlando said not wanting to cause Sharman any unneeded stress. "As you both know she and I split recently due to issues with Edward Russo as I mentioned before-"
"That monster" Will said a bit angered that someone had dared to hurt his little girl. "How can a man be capable of such, such crimes!"
Orlando nodded also still having great anger towards that man. "Fortunately though she and I finally reconciled and we are both very happy-"
"And that's all that matters dear" Sharman replied with a smile as she held her husband's hand.
Orlando returned the smile until his expression turned serious. "It is because we are both very happy that I asked to see you both" Orlando said with a pause. Sharman and Will gave Orlando confused looks and Orlando took it as the sign to keep going. "Will, Sharman, I love your daughter more than anything in the world. Your daughter is my entire world" Orlando said just picturing how perfectly beautiful and kind Keira was. "She's my everything, I wake up thinking about her, I fall asleep thinking about her, when I'm asleep I dream about her and I, I just love her."
"We know dear, just as she loves you" Sharman said with a warm smile.
Orlando returned it before giving his entire attention to Will who knew where all this was going. "Will, I love her. I care for her. I will do anything it takes to make her happy and safe. I'll try my best to be the man she deserves to have by her side if you let" Orlando paused as he swallowed hard some nerves coming back. "Will, I want to know if I still have your blessing."
"Blessing for what?" Sharman asked looking at her husband who was looking at Orlando with a completely serious expression. "Darling what is he talking about?" She had no idea what was going on, unlike Will.
Will sat there looking at Orlando thinking only about his little girl and what was best for her. A few months ago the man in front of him had asked him a very important question to which he said yes. Now things had changed and things had happened and he didn't answer right away as he kept thinking everything through. He wanted to make the best choice for his daughter. His only daughter. The little girl who was placed in his arms only twenty years ago. The little girl who he taught to talk, to ride a bike, to drive and the little girl who seemed to have grown up to fast. What was best for that little girl? Was it the man in front of him who swore he loved his daughter more than anything? Will had a choice to make at that moment and he made it.
"He wants to know if he still has my blessing to marry our baby girl" Will replied to his wife who gasped at this news.
"Oh my" Sharman said as her eyes grew watery with joy. She gave her full attention to her husband anxious to hear what he would say.
"Orlando" Will started still completely serious. "My baby girl has been through a lot. She's suffered greatly fighting for your love-"
"I know and believe me I am sorry for that" Orlando said with the same seriousness. "Believe me when I tell you that I never wanted to hurt her. Believe me when I tell you that I will make sure she is never hurt again. Believe me Will, when I tell you that your little girl is the woman I want to marry and spend the rest of my life with."
There was a moment of silence as Will hadn't replied yet. Sharman grew nervous not knowing what was taking her husband so long."He can't say no" she thought to herself. Eventually Orlando interrupted her thoughts.
"Will, Sharman" Orlando said facing both of his girl friend's parents. "May I have your permission to marry your daughter and make her my wife?"
Sharman instantly nodded and Will still sat silent until he finally said something. "Orlando" he started as he stood up. After sending nerves to both Sharman and Orlando he released a smile. "It would be an honor to have you marry my daughter" he said overjoyed knowing there was no better man for his little girl than the one in front of him.
Orlando released a wide smile before he stood up and he and Will shared a manly hug. Sharman smiled and tears came to her eyes after witnessing this important moment.
"You take care of my baby girl" Will said to Orlando as he hugged him with a few tears in his eyes.
Orlando nodded before getting a tight hug from a hysterical Sharman. "Welcome to the family!"
