"Keep telling your parents to go fuck themselves and do what you want," Tristan said plainly and shrugged.
Mikey smiled, that was his father, bluntly honest. "He's right."

Mel bit her lip. She needed her parents to understand, to give their blessing. As much as she loved Mike, she DID NOT want to have to choose. She always assumed her family was so accepting....
"We'll keep trying," she decided, nodding.

"And I'll try not to kill your father," Mikey said.
Tristan scoffed, "Good luck," He lit a cigarette and turned and went back into the living room.

"What a small world," Melody mumbled, and wrapped her arms around Mikey's torso, hugging him close.

"Yeah, too small," he said with a heavy sigh.

"Why is your dad so okay with us? It's not fair," Mel complained, still hugging him.

"Honestly I got no idea," Mikey said with a shrug.

She kissed him, and then turned to the door. "I better go, I told them I was going to the library...can we go to our celebration dinner tomorrow? My parents are going out with friends, they won't even notice I'm gone.."
((they should all be at the same restaurant!))

"Yeah tomorrow is perfect," he kissed her softly. "I'll meet you there?" he asked her.
((yes!))

Mel nodded. "Remember its steak so wear your fancy clothes again." She smirked and kissed him. "I love you."

"Don't worry I will," he said and then walked her to the door.

The next night, Melody stood outside JP Alexander's, a steakhouse in the upper east side, waiting for Mikey. It was expensive, but it was on her. Besides, she really wanted to celebrate his promotion. And feel what it would be like to go on a nice date with Mikey- in her world.

Mikey arrived dressed in his best clothes, they were neatly kept and newly washed, but it was obvious he'd had then for awhile. He stepped up to her smiling and kissed her softly. "Ready to go in?"

Melody squeezed his hand. "Yep." She walked into the restaurant. "Reservation under Shamien," she told the hostess, with a small blush. Even though she had made the reservation, she liked hte thought of using Mikey's name. the hostess led them to a small booth in the corner.

"This place is real nice," Mikey said to her as they sat down. It was too nice and he was starting to feel uncomfortable. Hell, he had no idea why there were three forks on the table or two glasses. Mikey smiled anyway.
