Chapter 74

Shannon's P.O.V."I really appreciate you and the team doing this for us Jake. This is just genius. Thank you."

"Well don't mention it boss, besides your safety is really our top priority and this is the only way to do that." My flight to Dallas got a bit early and Elizabeth doesn't know about it. I was suppose to fly next week but I had my doctor's permission to fly earlier to maybe surprise my girlfriend. I miss her that bad, plus, I'm thinking about proposing to her soon enough.

Jake got in talks with airport security and figured the best time to fly with no paparazzi around the area and that is at early dawn. The team led us safely into the airport with no hindrances and distraction and that is just incredible work. 

"What time will you be in Dallas?" He asks as he settles down beside me while we wait for our flight to be called. Dad is currently on his phone right now browsing through the news app he's been obsessing with while Mom is on the phone with Casey, who is surprisingly awake at this hour of the day.

"Maybe 6am or so" I smiled fiddling with my phone on my lap.

"and then?"

"And then, Dad will drive me to Seguin to surprise Elizabeth. All she knows is I'm spending the night at Zoë's because her mom is in the city and my mom is in the city so its perfect timing to have that excuse now." I let out a chuckle finally having some excuse to sneak out and by the way, in case Elizabeth calls Zoë, I already told her what to say and that I'm busy talking to her mom. She wouldn't suspect something from that. That's the thing about Elizabeth, she's strict but democratic in some way. Just as long as she knows where I am and who I'm with she's okay with that and won't even bother me unless I text her or call her. Its nice to have that.

"And you? Elizabeth told me you're on twin duties." He smiles and nods. Its still a bit awkward talking about the twins or even Trent, even though he hasn't stop going to the house visiting me or volunteering to take me to the hospital for my therapy. I know its been a month, but the wound is still fresh and maybe I'm just really ignoring the fact that they are trying to make up for something out of guilt. I'm not sure and maybe it doesn't matter at the moment.

"Yea, they have some kind of gathering.A small party, I think, and they need the team and I had an order from Lizzie to go so, yea. Flight's tomorrow."

"That's nice. Make sure they are guarded okay?"

"Roger that." He chuckles and I joined in. We continue to talk for a few moments with him asking how I was. To be honest, I really don't know. Maybe I'm still stuck in time where everything happened. No one can tell me what really happened to me on the day they found me on the beach because according to my Dad, Trent and my girlfriend, they found me all alone in that beach. I was the only one who was there, but I kept dreaming about the sea, hearing strong waves and a sky full of stars the moon illuminating the water below sending diamonds to float, it was peaceful but at the same time it was strange because I dream of it every single night. It wasn't even a nightmare, I was in a complete, peaceful state and I love it.

Anyway, I lied to Jake and say I was doing good even better since I'm on crutches already, but somehow I'm still using the wheelchair for easier transport around the house or just for me to rest after a long day of walking with them and believe it or not, he bought it. Maybe I was getting good at lying and I don't think if that's a good thing.

After quite sometime our flight was called and that we needed to board the plane immediately. Mom cautiously pushes my wheelchair while Jake helped Dad with the luggages. We got in safely and secure in the plane and settled down pretty good. I wasn't comfortable with flying let alone in wheelchair so I'm guessing this flight is going to torture me for three hours. I just hope it'll all be worth it. I know it will—————— We're on our way to Seguin since they're shooting the rollercoaster scene today. Lesli still sends me our schedule even though I'm currently on leave right now which is a huge advantage for me, thanks to her. To say that I'm tired would be an understatement because I'm really exhausted from the flight since I still haven't got that much sleep and my head is fucking throbbing right now, right underneath the huge scar on my forehead, but that's okay. Its still worth it because after a flight of 3 hours and a drive for another 3 hours, in less than half an hour, i'll be able to see my girlfriend in the flesh, after a whole fucking month.

A fresh bouquet of red tulips sits on my lap and I can't stop staring at them, hopefully she'll love them. The flowers wasn't part of the plan, the thought just went through me earlier and even Dad pointed it out asking where my flowers are so we decided to stop by a flower shop on the way here.

"So" Dad suddenly says making me look at him and saw the biggest smile on his face and I never thought he could do such thing. "When are you going to ask her?" He gives me a slight nudge on my good arm and chuckles. I swear I've never seen that grin before.

So you might've figured it out but I told them about the proposal. They were very much pleased and excited than I am that they started asking these questions I still haven't hot the answers and its still a blur in my head. I don't really have a plan and out of respect maybe I should still consider telling a plan to her family.

"Soon, I would know if its the right time. But the ring is with me all the time, just in case."

"Oh I'm so happy you've finally came to your senses. I mean, Lizzie is just an angel sweetheart and I really can tell how much she loves you." My lips cracked into a smile as I say,

"Well I love her more than that, and I couldn't see myself not having her as my wife. Its just that given. Well, I've managed to erase every memory of us two years ago with a terrible car accident, still here we are. Back together and still in love with each other like this was really meant to be. Its strange but perfect at the same time."

"When you put it that way, it sounded like you were really destined for each other. Its really strange but in a good way and I'm really really happy for you guys."

"Thanks Dad." I say sincerely as my smile grew wider. Then a sudden thought came in to me. Her Dad, should I ask for his blessing? Well, clearly her dad hates my guts and thinks I'm using her daughters for my career. Really what an asshole, but I have the feeling I have to do that, just out of deep respect even though he's really a bastard.

"You alright?" My Dad asks snapping me back out of my thoughts. I looked at him the same time he glanced at me, and I must have a bothered face because his brows knit together and ask again. "What is it?"

"Uhm, I just remember, I need to ask her father's blessing right?"

"Yes and why is that bothering you?"

"Her Dad hates me." I mutter.

"What? Why?" Well he must've heard me still. I sighed.

"Well for starters he really likes Robbie."

"Robbie, the guy who— Lizzie's ex boyfriend?"

"Yup" I nod. "and he thinks I'm using her daughters for my career. He's pretty much of an asshole dad." I chuckled and he shakes his head and shrugged. He goes silent for a while, which is giving me the nerves.

"Why don't you invite him over for dinner sometimes." He eventually says which made me curious in some way. "not necessarily here in Texas but just plain simple dinner back in your house in LA and you tell me about it. We'll fly out so I can meet him. Maybe a dad to dad talk will get him out of his delusional ways."

"I'll try, Elizabeth hates him as well so convincing her to invite her dad over for dinner will really be a challenge for me." I chuckled and he shrugs

"Just putting it out there. Anyway, we'll be right here for the both of you okay, if you need us we'll be there . Anytime." I am so lucky to have parents who actually supports me in everything that I do. Some kids don't get that and it makes life for them, harder each day. So I'm really blessed to have them even though their marriage didn't work out as it should be, they're still good friends after that and we can even stay in one roof , have dinner and a laugh or even set out a movie afterwards and enjoy it. That is very rare these days.

"Thank you Dad, really. You, Mom and Casey are the best. I just— I love you guys." He smiles and taps me on my shoulders before carefully leaning towards me and plants a quick kiss on my temple, not taking his eyes off the road. Something he always does in ways to say 'i love you' back, without actually saying it. He's a big softy too.

We finally arrived at ZDT and as expected it is closed for shooting purposes and now I don't know how I would manage to get in without her or Lesli or anyone in the production team to know I'm here.

"So, have you talked to someone?" My head snaps to my Dad and raised my brows at him confused on what he was talking about. "Its closed, how are we getting in. Security is pretty tight sweetheart." I look around and see security surrounding the area makes it even harder to get in. I reached for my phone in my camera bag and glanced at the time. 11:36 it read, almost lunch time or is it? I'm not sure. I ignored all the messages even the ones Elizabeth sent me and think of something real quick.

I look around hoping I find someone who I actually recognize and fate must be on my side today because perfect timing for Carl to appear at the entrance and talk to one of the security. My lips cracked into a smile as my heart suddenly thumps loudly in my chest while I roll down the window of Dad's car.

"Carl!" I call out catching the attention of some of the security. He turns around and immediately saw me. Well he's really surprised to see me with the double take he just did making me laugh. He excused himself from the man he was just talking to and shakes his head in disbelief walking towards me.

"Hi!" I say and he just looked at me like he'd seen a corpse come to life before breathing out a deep breath and smiles.

"Oh my God, you're actually here!" He grins widely and studies my face, his eyes landing on my forehead staring at the scar that's been sitting there for a month now and its making me conscious in some way. This just tells me its there.

"Can you help us in?" His eyes snaps at me taking his attention of my scar.

"Of course" I smiled widely and I guess that's Dad's cue to get out of the car to get my crutch at the back seat. "How long have you been here?" Carl asks.

"Not long, Its really a good thing I saw you by the entrance because I'm really losing hope."

"So no one knows?" I slowly shake my head from side to side while I fix my things putting on my camera bag and holding. He steps aside as Dad approaches the car door.

"Hi, I'm Jim. Shannon's dad." He shook hands with Carl and that made me smile but looking at Carl's reaction just makes me want to chuckle. He seems a bit confused. Dad opens up the passenger door and I hand him the flowers. He helps me out of the car with me holding on to his arm for support with my one and only good arm and finally got off the car. I felt a crunching pain on my knee, which happens every time I get off a car, before Dad hands me my crutch . Well I'm still on the early stages of recovery and besides I have my wheelchair ready at the trunk just in case.

"You good?" Dad asks as I breathe out a sharp breath as I settled down and nod my head. He looks on me for a good second and goes to the driver seat turning off the car.

"Are you sure you're allowed to even be here?" Carl asks as I walk towards him. I let out a chuckle at the worried look he's giving me offering his arm for support while we wait for Dad. "That looks so painful."

"I'm good, really. It just looks worse than it is but I'm getting there. I'm used to it." I winked and he shakes his head a small smile on his lips and a worried look on his face. We start to walk when Dad appeared behind us. We got pass through security smoothly with Carl just telling them my name and that's just easy. I could've done that, but anyway I'm glad I saw Carl too.

"Perfect timing that you're here though, we're really having a hard time with Lizzie right now. We've extended more time than we should have allotted for the roller coaster scene and apparently she has a huge fear over them." My heart starts pumping fast upon hearing this. She does have a huge huge fear of rollercoasters and I can't believe they're making her do this.

"I know there's a rollercoaster scene but I thought a stunt double will take over for her not her actually doing it."

"Well we need some parts of it with her face on it." My nerves starts rising up and I was getting frustrated. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Lesli and I agreed for a stunt double for this one because of Elizabeth's fear of rollercoasters, I couldn't even get her to ride Goofy's Sky School in Disneyland Park the time we went there with Rose and now they wanted to place her in a fucking train on a real rollercoaster.

"I need to speak to Lesli. Where's Elizabeth?" I let out a frustrated sigh as I start to see the crew coming into view. With all our equipment set up.

"Lesli's been talking to her and calming her down but its taking up way too long. We should be on our lunch break right now. That's why I needed to talk to security just to let them know about our schedule."

"Then maybe I'm right on time am I?" Before we could even get to the main set where I can already hear Lesli and Elizabeth from a distance, her crying already. I stopped and turn to talk to Dad. His brows knit together as soon as he reached us and before I could even speak he says,

"Is that Lizzie crying? Why is she crying? What's happening?" I can see the concern in my Dad's eyes and I love how he treats my girlfriend as her own daughter already it really warms my heart.

"She's getting in on that." I point to the steep railway in front of us and his eyes widen. "Yea, I can't even get her on one of those rollercoasters for kids in Disneyland and she's getting on that."

"I'm sorry Shan but Lesli said—"

"Its for the show. I know, but I need to speak to her." I sighed. "Do you know where Elizabeth's trailer is?"

"Yea its at the back, do you need something?" I look over to Dad and say, "Dad can you take this to Elizabeth's trailer please. I'm just going to work this out see what I can do. Carl can you show my Dad to her trailer please."

"Alright, but do you need help in getting to—"

"Nah, I'm good. I can manage." I manage to give him a smile even though I'm so bothered right now and my mind is on Elizabeth and its really hard hearing cry. "Dad" I say turning to my Dad and he nods. He gives me a kiss on the top of my head before whispering

"Take it easy sweetheart. I love you." He taps me on the shoulders again before following Carl to Elizabeth's trailer. I took a deep breath and shake my only good arm before holding on to my crutch and limp towards the main set. As I walk in further, I scan my eyes around hoping tospot them and it didn't even took me a second to find Lesli by the cameras her back on me. I can't see my girl but I know she's the one seated on that director's chair while Lesli and Jesse talks to her.

I took another breath to calm my nerves down before going towards them. I know I'm catching attention with the crew whispering and the shocked look on their faces that I can see through my peripheral but I don't care a out that right now, I don't even care how my knee is hurting with how faster I was walking than I probably should or how my armpits are starting to burn with the friction of my crutch, all I care about right now is making my girlfriend fee better.

"I just need another minute" I hear her sniff as I get closer and hearing that sends daggers to automatically go straight into my heart.

"Its going to be okay—" I shake my head as I get closer and but in.

"What's happening?" Heads turn, eyes wide as plates scanning me from head to toe like they've seen a ghost or something. I raised my brows not very impressed right now.

"Shan" Jesse whispers.

"You're here." Lesli continues.

"Yea." I mutter. My eyes finally met jade ones, my heart jumping in my chest, butterflies starts fluttering on my insides. Its like something sparked in me, an electricity sending shudders to my spine bidding my blood to run. Lesli and Jesse moves back giving me some space to move closer to my girlfriend still eyes on me, shocked that I'm actually here. Elizabeth sniffs, stops crying. A shocked look on her beautiful face. God she's still perfect even when she cries, is that even possible.

"Hi sweetheart." I whispered  leaning down a bit closer to her offering a small smile and she just stares at me while she hiccups. Her eyes studying mine scanning my face trying to make sure she's not seeing things.

"I'm real, I'm here." I smiled and she sniffs before raising her hand to touch my face and that's when she breaks down again pulling me closer and clinging on to my shirt for dear life. I place a soft kiss on top of her head before straightening up with her crying to my side

"Can't the stunt double pull it off for her? I thought we talked about this already?" I say calmly even though I'm really bothered by the idea.

"I—We need some parts with her actually in it Shan, we think its more realistic from the part of her asking Jesse if he likes rollercoasters rather than being shot by a distance with her not even on the scene." Well, she has a point, she really does but seeing my girlfriend in this state just fades that out. "She needs to do it."

"I'm going to, I just need a minute." She mutters to my side. If she's going to do it, I need to make sure she's safe and secure and the only way to that is be in charge.

"Can I take over the scene." Lesli breathes out a breath and smiles immediately raises her hands in defeat before saying "All yours". She gestured she would sit by the cameras and wait. I gave her a nod before Jesse and her leaves us alone. I pull away and lean down to face her again.

"Honey, you should sit dow—"

"Hi" I smiled making her look at me. Her lips slowly curls into a smile as she wipes her tears away before cupping both of my cheeks and whispers "You're really here."

"Yea" I let out a soft chuckle to try and take her mind off the fact that any minute now she's really getting into that ride.

"H—How?"

"A plane and a car sweetheart ." She gives me an unimpressed look making me chuckle and I just can't help it anymore. I leaned in capturing her sweet lips on mine breathing her in. God I miss these lips.

"Oh God, I missed that." She whispers as soon as we pull away.

"I missed you." I whisper back. She smiles, a proper one this time as she wipes the remaining tears in her eyes. "Are you sure you can do it?" I asked and she shakes her head.

"I don't have a choice do I? I have to do it." I sighed heavily and looked deep in her eyes, she really is terrified.  

"I'm afraid so sweetheart" I mutter straightening up while looking for someone who is working with the ride, she gets off the director's chair and touches my cheek making me look at her. Jade eyes in so much stronger color now, bright and vibrant with a hint of storm clouds, it was something I haven't seen before catching me in a trance.

"I love you. You don't know how you're making me feel right now. God I love you." She gives me another kiss and that made me smile on her lips.

"I love you darling." I mutter in her lips giving her one last kiss before completely pulling away. "You good?"

"I guess so." she sighs.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of you. Just think of it as Disneyland my love." she snorts in laughter and I joined in

"That's not even close Shan. Rose might've loved this though. Jesus, you think I can do this? That's too steep Shan I can't— I think I'm going to be sick." She starts breathing fast and I feel a panic attack coming in again and that just sends me into overdrive.

"Hey, hey look at me. Baby" I waved a hand in front of her and gestured her to look at me and she did. "I'm here, I won't let anything happen to you. I promise, I'm going to take over the scene. I'll make sure you're safe. Just hold on to Jesse, I promise I won't get jealous." A smile slowly creeps in to my lips and she mirrors it as well before breathing out a deep breath. "It will only last for a few minutes my love and then you're back in my arms, I mean arm." She giggles and shakes her head.

"That was really bad honey." She laughs playfully pinching my cheeks making my smile grew wider. God I miss this woman. "But I would really love that." I waggle my brows making her laugh again. I miss that laugh too, Oh how I lover her laugh.

"You good?" She nods this time with much more confidence like she did just minutes ago. "Go on then and get ready. You can do this baby, I know you can. Remember, Disneyland." I winked and she rolls her eyes and shakes her head. I let out a soft chuckle as she gives me a kiss on the cheek before walking away and leaving me to look around.

"I need someone!" I yell and it caught attention even Lesli and Jesse who looks up to us in attention. I gave them a thumbs up giving the signal that we are ready to roll.

"Hey Shan" I look in front of me and see Diane, one of the assistant directors, in front of me with a smile on her face. "What is it that you need?"

"Hi uhm, can you get me to the operator of the rollercoaster and maybe call on Jesse to walk with us so we can start rolling after. I just need a word and make sure both of them are safe and secure."

"Alright then, I'll just call on Jesse so we can go, give me 15 minutes."

"That's just all I need." I smiled and she smiles back and nods her head before walking away. I went over to the cameras and checked on Patrick who is in charge with them and let me know where my cameras are. The main one is currently being attached in front of the rollercoaster facing the train where Elizabeth and Jesse will be seated but there's a problem, the camera is crooked and out of focus so I take Patrick's earpiece and instructed the one who's fixing it guiding him to lock it in properly.

As much as possible I want this to be a one take thing. I can't handle the thought of her going through it multiple times. I won't allow that, that's why I took over the scene to make sure everything goes well with just one take.

"Hey" I glanced to my side to see who it was and saw Lesli looking at me with concerned eyes. "As happy as I am that you're here and convince Lizzie to do it so easily and even make her laugh like that when she's seconds away from backing out, I'm still concern of you working while you're still in this state."

"I'm fine Lesli, I just need to make sure everything is in tact before we film it. A one take is what I'm going for and this is by far the most terrifying thing she's going to do and she has done some of her stunts in the MCU." I gave back Patrick his earpiece and say a quick "Thank you" before turning completely to Lesli.

"Atleast sit down for a minute and rest your leg. It still looks pretty bad." I sigh and gave her a smile. "and your arm—"

"Lesli" I say and she stops, looks at me. "I'm okay, I promise. Now you get over there, sit down and relax and let me take over this one scene please? Can you do that for me?" She sighs and nods tapping me slightly on the cheek and sliding her hand down on to my shoulders.

"Shan!" I look up to my side and saw Dad walking over to us.

"Who's that?" Lesli asks.

"My dad." I shrugged.

"Hey, I left them on by her mirror so she will probably see it right away as soon as she walks in— Oh hi, I'm Jim. Shannon's Dad."

"Now there's the accent." Lesli smiles. "I'm Lesli the head director of the show." They shook hands to it and Lesli turns to me then to my dad. "Oh now I see it." Dad chuckles and looks around.

"Where's Lizzie?"

"She's getting ready— Oh here she is." I smiled as she came into view walking to our direction with Jesse and Diane. Her smile cracks into a huge one when she sees my dad and its adorable to watch her with my family, brings so much joy and comfort to me.

"Hi!" She giggles.

"Hi sweetheart." Dad wraps an arm around her shoulders and pulls her in placing a kiss on top of her head. "You good?"

"Yea, I think so." She breathes out a heavy breath and looks over to me.

"Oh Dad, meet Jesse. Jesse my dad." I say acknowledging his presence. My Dad is very much well getting his exposure right now and he doesn't even have a clue about it. They shook hands and exchange pleasantries before Dad looks over to me.

"I think I'm going to go to the car and get your chair, just in case while I leave you alone to work out on this." He says "Oh and Lizzie, you're going to be just fine I promise you. It'll be over before you know it." He squeezed her in before completely pulling away. "Alright I need to go."

"Thanks Dad" I say as he walks away and he just gives us a thumbs up.

" Your Dad is a sweetheart." Lesli says and I let out a soft chuckle nodding my head

"He is, isn't he. He's a big softy even though he looks very tough." They all agreed. I glanced at Elizabeth and she still looks bothered and if this goes on a bit longer, it might start a panic attack again so I say.

"Alright let's do this." Diane nods and tells Jesse and Elizabeth to go with her. I was about to walk with them when Elizabeth stops me quirking a brow and Lesli calling out my attention.

"Where are you going?"Lesli calls and this time, I can see her getting annoyed at me already but I don't actually know why.

"Yea where are you going?" Elizabeth buts in as Lesli walks over to us.

"I'm going to talk to the person in charge of that thing—"

"Can you fucking sit down. I'll do that I'm going to talk to Steve."

"Wha— that's not necessary I need to see—"

"Shan please just sit down, I'm sure he'll take care of it." I was getting annoyed myself at my head director and my girlfriend. They just don't get it, this is twice as scary for me as for Elizabeth. I need to know she's safe.

"That's not my point, I need to know if that thing is safe enough for her to ride on. I won't risk her safety just for a fucking scene so will you two just relax and let me do my fucking job." I sigh in frustration. They didn't push through with the stunt double, the least they could do is let me fucking talk to Steve to make sure nothing will go wrong with it.

"Alright, go on." Lesli sighs in defeat.

"Thank you." I breathe out and start to catch up with Jesse and Diane who was watching us the whole time. Elizabeth walks with me in silence, I know I should probably talk to her and apologize for my behavior but my temper is really getting up there right now and I just need to calm myself down before talking to her. I didn't talk until we've arrive at the bottom of the rollercoaster. and saw a bunch of crew and extras working on the roller coaster. I stand by as Diane calls out to the operator who is a man called Steve.

Well, Steve is actually a young man. Maybe in his early 20's which makes me more nervous than I am a while ago. He walks to us with Diane wearing a full Texas cowboy costume on, I think he's about a foot taller than I am. Diane introduced us with each other and since I don't have any hands available right now, he just waves and nods at me.

"You sure this thing's safe." I say getting straight to the point.

"Yup, we had her on full maintenance just for this day. We already tested her out actually and she's running pretty good." I hum in response nodding my head still pretty unsure of it.

"Lizzie, Jesse you need to get in." Diane says and I stopped her for a sec and turn to my actors.

"Elizabeth, I know this is the worst thing that you have to do but don't worry okay. You're going to be safe, I promise. Jesse can you please—"

"I got it." He nods. Elizabeth looks up to me with pure fear in her eyes but there's nothing I can do but reassure her so I smile and place a soft kiss on top of her before saying in a much softer tone.

"Its okay, you're going to be fine. I'll see you later okay." and all she can manage to do is nod and just walk with Diane towards the the train. I sighed and turn to Steve.

"So she runs pretty good?" I asked and he nods smiling from ear to ear. " Yup like I said we did a test drive earlier."

"Did you run it a couple of times just to make sure." He scratches the back of his head giving me the answer to my question so I asked again. "How long have you been working on this thing?"

" about a year. Hey man, don't worry about it okay, I know Elizabeth Olsen is your girlfriend and I can guarantee you that she's going to be safe." He says slowly backing away.

"She better be." I sighed and he just gives me a thumbs up. This boy is a fucking kid, how am I suppose to relax and be at ease. This is already stressing me out, we haven't even started yet. I made my way back to the tent where Lesli is already seated on her director's chair talking to my Dad holding onto my wheelchair. They stopped talking as soon as they saw me. I was rather annoyed already having doubts on Steve.

"Steve is a kid." I say to Lesli raising my brows to her while she hands me a spare radio

"Wha— Shan he works here." I nod my head and went over to Patrick and take a good look at my actors most especially Elizabeth. its clear enough how scared she is just by seeing how tight she's holding on to the railings and how tight her other hand is wrapped around Jesse's arm.

"Alright places everyone. " I say through the radio. God watching my girlfriend on the verge of a panic attack is fucking killing me.

"Uhm- Diane are you there?" I say

"Yup, I'm here."

"Can you give the radio to Elizabeth please just for a moment, I just need to say something." I watch through the cameras as Diane talks to Elizabeth and gives her the radio and the earpiece, she looks confuse but takes it and puts the earpiece on.

"Hey, baby. I know you're scared right now and I'm telling you its all going to be okay, just close your eyes and think about the sea."

'I hate the sea Shannon' She mutters and I suddenly remembered that she does. So I curse myself for saying the wrong thing.

"Right, sorry, I knew that. Just think about our spot back at home, you love that." I see a hint of smile on her lips and I guess its working so I continue. " and think about our trip to Disneyland with Rose, think of the good stuff my love. It'll be over before you know it."

"Okay" She sighs

"Are you good?" I asked

"I guess so."

"Well, you're going to be great." She smiles, the sweetest smile I've ever seen. "Now can you pass the radio back to Diane now?"

"Alright, I'll see you later."

"I'll be waiting with arms wide open, Oh I mean an arm wide open." She giggles.

"I love you."

"I love you too sweetheart, now pass it on to Diane now my love." She takes off the earpiece and pass it to Diane then I hear Lesli's voice on the radio that brought me back to reality and realized that they were listening the whole fucking time and that made me turn to look at them.

"And that is how you do it people. Shannon's way." She says and whistles and howls fills my ears making my face heat up in embarrassment, even my Dad is getting on. I shake my head as a smile cracked into my lips.

"Alright settle down, we're on in three, two, one. Action!"
