Katelyn's POV
We hop out of Jeffory's car with a lot of boxes in both of our arms, and we go back to the dorms. "Thanks Jeffory..." I say breathlessly as we put my boxes in mine and Aphmau's room. "No problem Katelyn..." Jeffory says as he hugs me. "I'm never leaving your side again." Jeffory says as he quickly kisses me. "Never." I say while smiling at him. "Katelyn... Since we didn't finish our date, how about we finish it at campus?.." Jeffory asks while I nod. I grab his hand, and we walk out of the dorms going to a shady spot. We both lay down on the grass, and I just snuggle up next to him. He chuckles, and then asks seriously "Have you ever thought of just running away?." The scenes of my Mother dying start to fill my head again, and I don't make a sound. Jeffory turns over and looks at me, and he gives me a questioned look asking "You okay?." I just shake my head, and tears start to fill my eyes. "Katelyn?" He asks as he hugs me, and pretty much just sets me in his lap. "...After my Mom died, I tried to run away lots of times..." I say while Jeffory wipes my tears away. "I'm sorry for bringing that up, I was just... Thinking of something different." Jeffory says as he kisses my forehead. "What were you thinking of?." I ask him as he laughs nervously. "Well... I... Was thinking of us getting married someday, and then for a couple days we just run away." Jeffory says dreamily as I laugh a little while my face turns red. "You were thinking of getting married?." I ask as Jeffory responds "Yes, it would make my life a million times better... Having a family with you." Jeffory says as I smile at him, and he smiles back. "..That would be nice.." I say as Jeffory kisses my cheek.

Jeffory's POV
"Good." I respond as my mind starts filling with millions of thoughts. Should I propose soon? Would she really like spending the rest of he life with me? "Jeffory?" Katelyn asks as I break out of my trance. "What?" I ask, shaking my head a little. Katelyn laughs, and she looks at me while smirking. "You were thinking about our future, weren't you?..." Katelyn asks as I nod my head. She chuckles, and I just give her a questioned look. "You're adorable." Katelyn says as I smile with satisfactory. "Quick question... What would you do if I proposed?." I ask as she goes wide and, and turns scarlet. "I-I um.. Heh.. I'd probably... You know what, I'm keeping that a surprise." She says as I growl at her playfully. "So.. The quicker I propose, the quicker I find out?." I ask as Katelyn nods and laughs. "Fine then... My fire cracker." I say as I chuckle under my breath, and Katelyn smiles at me. I hear footsteps coming closer to us, and I see Aphmau and Aaron smiling at us. "Hey guys. Wait a second... Did you guys have a baby?!" Katelyn asks in a shocked voice. Aphmau's face turns a bit red, and then she says "Nope, me and A-Aaron adopted a baby!!" Aphmau squeals as she shows us the cute little baby boy. "Congratulations!!" Both me and Katelyn say at the same time. "Thanks." Aaron says as I give him a thumbs up behind Aphmau's back. He gives me a thumbs up back, and then listen in on Aphmau and Katelyn's conversation.

Katelyn's POV
"I never knew you'd adopt a baby with Aaron?!" I half whisper half yell at Aphmau. She snuggles the sleeping baby closer to her, and she raises her eyebrows. "Me either actually." She whispers to me as both Jeffory and Aaron give us questioned looks. I stand up, and walk closer to Aaron. "Just because you two adopted a baby doesn't mean you can start making the moves on her now." I growl at Aaron as he backs up, and raises his hands a little bit. "I won't, at least not yet.." Aaron says as he mumbles the last part. "Good." I say as I turn on my heel, and sit next to Jeffory again. "Sorry guys! Got to go." Aphmau says as she, Aaron, and their baby go in a different direction. "You know Katelyn... Aaron's gonna make the moves even though you said that." Jeffory says as I shrug at him. "If Aphmau's fine with it, then it doesn't matter." I say as Jeffory smiles at me. I grab my phone out of my pocket, and the time shows 5:34. "Wow, it's already five thirty four." I tell Jeffory as he shrugs. "At least I got to spend it with you." He says as he puts his arm around me. I look over at him, and he kisses my forehead. I start to yawn, and I rest my head on his chest. "Just sleep.." He whispers as I close my eyes, and then fall asleep.

Jeffory's POV
I look down at Katelyn, and smile at her, and she smiles back. "Not sleeping I see.." I say as she swiftly opens her eyes, and I kiss her. She kisses back, but breaks it quickly by the squirrel that fell from the tree branch above us. "Gah!" I yell as I fall backwards, and Katelyn just laughs her butt off. "Funny, very funny.." I say as I brush the leaves out of my hair, and roll my eyes at Katelyn. "It was hilarious, you have to admit it.." Katelyn says as she kisses me.
