type of deal. After she was ready, there was time left for applying a little bit of make-up. Her reflection in the mirror proved she had made the right call.

"Where are we going?" She asked when he picked her up. As always, he looked sexy and smelled delicious.
     
    “To my house for dinner." He stole a glance at her then went back to driving.
     
    Her jaw dropped. "What!" They’ve known each other for seven years. Not once had he asked her to go to his house. Why now?
     
    “I figured, if I gave you a heads up. You'd say no.” He turned his head to smirk at her and she in turn glared. She sure as hell would have said no. It infuriated her that he’d pulled this stunt.  
     
    She refused to talk to him. When he pulled up to his house, Luis and Leo ran out to meet them. "Hey Casey, this is your first time in our house. Aren't you excited?" Luis asked as he hugged her.
     
    “Pissed off is more like it." She was still fuming, after all these years. Why now?

“Leo said that mom said we couldn’t have any girls over to meet them. Unless, she was a serious relationship." Luis jabbered on then turned to smirk at Mike. “Or, unless she was. The One.”
     
    Mike flicked Luis on the ear as he pulled her forward. Her palms were sweaty and she was hyperventilating. When they entered the house Cassandra saw a very beautiful woman standing in what she guessed was the living room.
     
    That was where Mike’s blue eyes came from, she gasped. His mother also had those intense, look into your soul blue eyes. Leo and Luis must have inherited their fathers Hazel eyes and brown hair. Mike like his mom had a dirty blond color. The woman smiled. “So you’re the famous Cassandra I've heard about these last Seven years."

    She’s known about her for Seven years? Casey thought they didn’t like her. Unsure what to do, she just smiled back.
     
    “I can see why my little Michael’s so in love with you.” The woman was scrutinizing her and she could feel her face turn all shades of red. What did you say to that? “You’re a shy little thing. I wasn’t expecting that.”
     
    “I’m going to kill Mike for this.” Cassandra thought as she turned to glare at Mike.   The sound of laughter followed by the arms that wrapped around her waist snapped her out of her murderous thoughts.
     
    The woman was hugging her. Mikes’ mom was hugging her. “Don’t be mad at him. I didn’t mean to embarrass you.” She let go and held her hand as she led them to their dining room.
     
    Casey didn’t know what to expect. They were a pretty wealthy family. They had so much money she half expected to see a museum of sorts. You know, a place that was overly done. A place where you had to be careful not to touch anything. Yet this house felt warm and inviting. There were still several nice things in it, but it didn’t make her feel out of place.
     
    Mrs. Codey sat to her right and Mike sat to her left. Luis and Leo were seated across from her. “Hey mom, where’s dad,” Leo asked his mother.
     
    She smiled at them. “He was called into the Chicago Office. There was a problem with one of the orders.”
     
    “Why didn’t dad tell me? I’m the one handling the cattle portion now.” Mike demanded, Casey thought he looked annoyed.
     
    “Are you kidding, he knew your girlfriend was coming to dinner. This is a special occasion. Even if he wasn’t able to be here. He still wanted us to make sure Cassandra felt welcomed into the family.”
     
    “I guess its ok then. I’ll just touch base with him later.” Mike said as he reached out for her hand and laced their fingers together. Cassandra looked up and smiled at him.
    “I hope you like what we’re having for dinner. Tonight we’re having breaded steak smothered in country gravy, corn on the cob, mashed potatoes, rolls and a peach cobbler with ice cream for dessert.” Mrs. Codey said while squeezing her other hand.
     
    Her stomach picked that moment to growl.
