(Y/N)'s POV

     I wonder what John was doing last night. I could ask him again, but he'll just keep dodging the question. What's so important in our relationship that I don't get to know? I push that away and wake John, who was still sleeping, up.

"Babe wake up we have to drive to my mom's apartment" I say. He sits up. He's shirtless and his hair is all over the place. I blush and get normal clothes on and he gets a shirt on.

We walk downstairs next to each other. I say bye to my family and John says bye to my father. We walk out the door and into the taxi we called. "{random address} please" John says for me. The driver nods and we're on our way.

We get to my mom's apartment building and I knock on the door. The door opens to reveal my mom and 2 kittens. "(Y/N) sweetie come in, also why is there a person I don't know about?" She says referring to John. "I'm John Laurens ma'am, your daughter's boyfriend" John says shakily. "It's nice to meet you" my mom says with a smile. She never does that.

We walk in and I see my mom's boyfriend on the couch. "John, this is my mom's boyfriend, Kyle" I say. (Just go with it). "Kyle this is my boyfriend John" I add on. They shake hands and start talking while I talk with my mom.

"So what do you think of him?" I ask. She usually doesn't approve of anyone. "I like him, and he doesn't look like a troll either so you're good. Does he treat you well?" She asks. I laugh at her comment and answer. "Yes, he's the nicest person I've ever met." She nods. "That's good, as long as you're happy sweetie. Personally, I think he'd make a great husband" she says looking at him. I wish he were my husband. The relationship will probably end before he proposes. I walk over to Kyle and talk with him.

John's POV

(Y/N) comes over to talk with her mother's boyfriend. He's pretty cool, he knows how to shoot a compound bow and he hunts. He's also a marine which is pretty badass if you ask me. "I'm going to go talk to your mom" I whisper to (Y/N). She nods and smiles and I walk away.

     "Hello Mrs.(M/L/N)" I say knowing that she has a different last name than (Y/N). "Thank god you actually remembered I don't have the same last name as (Y/N). Thomas didn't consider that. Long story short, I'm glad you replaced him" she explains. "Yeah (Y/N) and I's friend group doesn't like him either" I say. She laughs and we talk a bit more.

     Turns out (Y/N)'s mom is really cool. Now I have to ask her the big question. "I have something to ask you, ma'am" I say politely. "Please just call me (M/N), ma'am makes me feel older than I am" she says and I laugh at her joke. "Well, I want to marry your daughter, and I was wondering if I had your permission" I ask nervously. She smiles at me. "I would love if you were my son in-law" she says. "Thank you (M/N)" I say with more confidence. "When do you plan on proposing?" She asks quietly. "Next week" I respond. She smiles wider. "Good luck" she says and I walk over to (Y/N).

     "It's starting to get late, I'm going to bed" (Y/N) says. "Me too, goodnight (M/N) and Kyle" I say. They both say goodnight and (Y/N) and I go to bed. "I love you" she says. "I love you more" I say. She opens her mouth to say something before I cut her off. "Don't even try to deny it" I say and we pass out curled up next to each other.
