Ailbe didn’t quite understand how she and Jason had gotten here, something to do with her father speaking with Jason’s parents about their future together. She felt incredibly awkward about the whole thing, but she wasn’t going to question her father’s authority, “She’s lovely…” she added softly, “I’m sorry my father couldn’t be here tonight. He sends his apologies… the precinct has been crazy.”

Jason was confused. They were both old enough to tell their parents they weren't ready for such next step just yet. They barely confessed their feelings but they weren't even sure if it was a moment they were in or they truly were meant to be. He looked over to her and gave her a smile. "Oh don't worry, we still got my parents here to cover majority of the things they discussed with your dad." He said, "Besides, I have a feeling we'll be let out early on this wedding meeting."

"Alright, I think I'm all ready now." William walked out of the room, checking on his suit as he made it to the center of the living room. He looked up at the other and gave her what seemed like a smile. "I really don't know why I have to go with you to this dinner party, I know no one!"

Desmond left work, still chuckling to himself about the texts between him and Emm. He was still amazed that he had found someone that understood him and was more than willing to act like a goof with him. After driving back home, thankful there wasn’t a lot of traffic, Desmond stood outside the door. “Knock, knock.” He called out, wondering if Emm would go along with the joke.
