He flashed her a grin. "It took some convincin' on my part ta talk Mama outta gettin' in the car and comin' with us. She cried." He squeezed her hand. "They're happy, Sugar. Daddy said it's about damn time."

"Mom said the same," she smiled down at her lap, though she started to feel sorry that they weren't going to be there...
She sighed as her thoughts traveled to her dad who had passed away about five years ago. She knew he would approve, especially after the way Tyler had stood by her while she was dealing with his death. She just wished she could know for sure.

He watched her for a little while out of the corner of his eye. He knew what she was thinking, he could see it on her face. He gave her hand a squeeze, bring it to his mouth to kiss her knuckles again. "He'll be there, baby. And he'd be happy cuz yer happy." He had always sought her father's approval, and he genuinely felt like he'd gotten it.

"Which is why he would've haunted you if you had gone through with marrying her," she shot him a watery smile, her eyes shining with unshed tears.

He sent her a smile, kissing her fingers. "Woulda' been miserable for the rest a' my life for more than a few reasons." As they got caught in traffic, he angled towards her, kissing her lips. "I love ya, Kat. Always have. Yer Daddy knew that, too."

"What, he did and I didn't? That's not fair," she teased, chuckling softly. She leaned in to kiss him one last time before the cars in front of them started moving again.

He laughed warmly. "Well, I suppose we were so caught up in ourselves, we never bothered ta notice how the other one mighta' felt. Yer Daddy...he'd gimme this look all the time. Like he was callin' me an idiot for not sayin' nothin' to ya." He grinned at her. "I liked him."

"Me too, Ty. Me too," she replied, leaning her head against the headrest and blinking away her tears.
She sniffed and sat up, leaning over to switch on the radio. "We need some tunes."

He put his hand on her thigh, squeezing it affectionately. "Take a nap, baby. We're makin' good time. I'll wake ya up when we get there."

4 hours later, night fell and the lights of Vegas shown at the horizon. Tyler reached a hand over and brushed Kathryn's hair back. "Wake up, baby. We'll hit the city soon."

Kathryn let out a sleepy groan, opening her eyes slowly and looking around, bleary eyed. She turned to look at him, yawning.
"You didn't have to let me sleep all this time, you were probably so bored!"
((Okay, weird. This whole time I've been imagining Kathryn sitting in the left seat and Tyler driving in the right because that's how the cars are here in SA. And I just now realized it would be the other way around!))

((HA! Honey, you've been out of America for toooo long!))
He grinned at her. "I wasn't bored. I listened to music and watched ya bein' all cute over there." They drove the distance into the city, getting off the highway. As they drove down the main Strip to reach the Venetian, Tyler glanced up and around at the lights. "Pretty, ain't it?"

"Yeah," Kathryn replied as she gazed out the window. The last time she'd been here was for her 21st birthday, but she knew that neither her nor Tyler could remember much of what happened.

He pulled into the parking structure, finding a spot, helping her out then grabbing her bags. He took a moment to kiss her, nibbling her bottom lip, pressing her back against the door of the truck. "The Venetian's supposed ta have a real nice chapel..."

"You mean Elvis won't be present at our wedding?" she asked, looking up at him with a very concerned expression.

He chuckled a little, kissing her again. "Not unless ya want 'im ta be." He pulled back to hoist his duffel onto his shoulder and drape his garment bag over his arm, taking her hand in his free one. "Come on, let's check in. We'll have the front desk check out their availability."
