“Oh, good,” Amber said, kissing his cheek as they stepped into the theater. “We’re in the second-to-top row, middle seats.”

"All right," William hummed as they began walking over to their designated spots, taking a seat once they were there. "Looks like we missed the first ten minutes."

“That’s not too bad,” Amber murmured under her breath. “Least we’ve seen it before.”

"Definitely," he murmured. "Now shh…"

Amber chuckled softly and opened the Reese’s Pieces, popping a few into her mouth. She leaned against his side as the movie played, determined not to cry this time around.

William snatched one of her candy and tossed it in his mouth, resting his head on hers as he chewed softly. He really didn't like emotional movies—not that he was a cryer, of course—but he didn't mind this one. It was good. It was great.

Amber grunted when he stole her candy, but she didn’t protest. He payed for it, after all. Plus, he was her fiancé. What was his was hers, and what was hers was his.

William stretched when it was the end of the movie, sighing at the lack of credits.

“Well…” he murmured. “That was an emotional ride. You okay, Blue?”

“I’m fine,” Amber mumbled, rubbing at her eyes as she stood. She scrubbed at the faint lines of mascara that were undoubtedly below her eyes, getting rid of the evidence. “What about you? How did you fare?”

William shrugged, wrapping his arm around her while the other hand held most of their trash.

“I died on the inside,” he replied, kissing the side of her head. “That’s how well I fared.”

Amber hummed and leaned into him. “Seems as if we fared the same, then. Well, now we can go home and make up for it. And after we do that…” She sighed, burying her face in his shoulder for a moment. “After that, we can call my parents about a good time to visit…”

William hugged her as they walked out, throwing out the trash on their way.

“Do you think they would like me?” William quirked an eyebrow, rather worried. “I mean, it’s a miracle you do, but parents generally don’t. What if they don’t? What’re you going to do if they don’t?”

“Now? I think they would. Before… When you didn’t have as good of control over your anger, they would have been worried. They wouldn’t have tried to stop me, but they would have been worried,” Amber admitted softly, giving his arm a gentle squeeze. “But I do think that they will like you.”

William ran a hand through his hair, the arm around her tightening his hold on her. “Then it’s probably a good thing they didn’t know me then,” he muttered. “Don’t you think?”

Amber sighed and shook her head. “No. No, I don’t think so. I think I should have brought you to meet them a while ago because it doesn’t matter what they think. All that matters is that I love you, and I want to marry you.”

William kissed her on the side of her head again. “It’s okay. Now that it’s certain we’re getting married, it’ll be a good time for an introduction,” he murmured. “They won’t be upset. There isn’t anything to be upset about.”

“Yeah. Yeah, I hope so,” Amber sighed, her hold on William tightening. “I really hope so…”

“Definitely,” William hummed. “Now let’s get home.”

Amber nodded and followed him to the car. Once they reached it, she slid into her seat and glanced out the window, hoping her parents wouldn’t be upset that she had effectively hidden her boyfriend (now fiancé) from them…

“It’ll be fine,” William repeated, gently squeezing her thigh. “They won’t be upset. Okay?”

Amber sighed, nodding as she tore her gaze back over to him. “Yeah. Yeah, okay. Thanks…”
