He pulls out his bible out of his pack and sits there and starts to read. He was reading his bible all the way from the begging until the ending. He's read it once like that before. He leans back in the chair and puts his bible down on the table to rest his eyes for a second. When he does a slim blonde headed girl with glasses walks up and over to him.

She couchs getnly and he truns around to noticed her standing right behinde him. He looks up at her and she kind of looks down at the floor. He thinks for a second and then grins.

He gets in his dad turck and drives home as April walks in the front door. He goes off and pulls off his tux and hits his knees thanking God for the wonderful enving. Then he Ask him to fogrgive him for his sins and lays down and goes to sleep. The next morning he wakes up and prays again. He reads his bible and after he's done he prays once more and gets up for the day. He walks thought the house knowing his mom and dad are still asleep. He then walks outside after makeing everyone something to eat and putting it up. He walks around the block only to see April walking aned they ran into one another. April smiles well hello though dear. Danny grined. What are you doing up so earily? April smiles, I was on my way to the loacal store to get somethig to eat. Mom and dad are still sleeping. He nods as he walks along side of her and he buys her something to eat. Then he sits down in the park with her. Jake comes walking up and I thought I'd never see you two out here. Danny smiles, what bring you over this way? Jake smiles, doing a little morning jogg. Danny smiles and he looks at April. Jake smiles, April you sure turn sone heads last night. Jake smiles, Danny you working tonight? Danny shacks his head. Nope,I'm off until Monday. He nods, you know where playing ball tonight you want to play? Danny looks at April and then Jake.

April smiles, Oh thats right you miht want to clean up first. She start to laugh and then she said baby I'm playing I dont care. I smelt my dad when he was in the mines all the time. Danny nods and walks her back home and smiles. I'll talk to you later on alright? April looks down at the ground. You dont have to leave you know. He nods and kisses her softly I know but I got to. Mom and dad dont know where I'm at. You know that mom and dad are wanting to visit some people back in Ohio this summer. Danny looks at her and sighs, Yeah I guess I should have seen that comeing. She looks to him they said you could go with us if you wanted. He nods. I dont know. They kiss and Danny leaves and goes home. He walks in and no one is still up so he start to read some more of his Bible. He reads until someone wakes up and walks in the living room. He steps out of his room and sits down beside both his mother and dad. He dont really care about the morning news but seeing how they both liked to see what they missed last night he watched it with them. He knew that he was going to play ball later on with some of his friends and that he had to be back to work on monday. After watching the news he walked back to his room and checked a lettler that he had gotton some years back when he won the basketball toument in school. He didnt play for the school no more since he had a job and he didnt really mind it. He didnt like the spot light on him at always and he didnt like to put up with the cheer leaders just wanting to go out with him because he played a sport. He walked back outside and sat around waiting on something to happen he was bored and he didnt like it. Around one pm he gets a call from the guys saying that they couldnt play ball tonight due to a man short and another man was sick. He hung up and went down the street walking around. Richie steped outside and noticed him walking around looking at the park across the street. Richie hollored for him to come over there and to sit on the proch. Danny walked over and sit down beside of Richie and they talked about work and where Danny was going after highschool. Richie looked over at Danny.

Do you mind if I ask you a question? Danny looks over at him, Sure shoot. Richie grins, Why did you stop playing basketball for? From what I've heard you could have went to college easy and then maybe pros. Danny noded and sighed. I wish it was that easy though. What are you talking about Richie asked? Danny sit there for a monment and said. Well For one I didnt like they way they treat other kids. Because your a jock you have to put other people down who can't play as good as you do. Two I wanted a car and dad said if I wanted one I had to work and get my own car. Three, I like the sport but I always thought that maybe God had something better for me to do beside dribble a basketball. The third reason is really my first reason. However still, I just play around for fun. Richie looks at Danny, You do know that we are going back to Ohio for a few weeks to see some family. Danny nods, yeah I know. Just have fun. Richie noded Danny you do know that Sarah Wanted you to go with us didnt you? He shocked his head, No I didnt know. He nods and looks at him, I talked to your parents. I dont think they would mind you going with us. The boss said you could take some time off because you havent in a while. Danny nods for a second and then thinks about some things. Thats cool, I better get, I got to get some lunch going. Richie nods and looks at him. So are you going to come with us? Danny looks at him and then back at Sarah staring at him in the window. He grins and nods, I can this time but I cant make no prosimes about next time. He nods and looks at him. Danny stands up and gets ready to walk down the proch as Richie looks to him and nods, I'll see you monday. He takes off down the street to his house and looks a this keys to his car. He knows it was totaled due to that drunk hitting him. He put the keys down on the table as his mom walks in and sees them. You know you can get you another car dont you? Danny looks over at you and noded. Yeah but I think I'll wait a while on it. She noded and looked at him. You do know that Sarah is wanting you to go ot Ohio with her and her parents dont you?

Danny sighed and looked at her, Yeah I'm going to go this time but I cant miss no more work after that. I got to work and buy me a new car now, or atlest an old one. She noded you know your dad and I will help you on that. He noded I know but I want to do this alone. He gets up and walks up to his room and lays on his bed and thinks about the crash and how dumb he was to stay out that late working. Danny looks up at his tofys that he earned playing basketball all though out grade school and some of highschool. He picks one up and he sits it back down. He grabs a basketball and his sweats and walks down to the park. There he starts to shoot for a while just playing around nothing really. Shooting over and over again not missing hardly any. Then behide him stood Sarah smileing at him. You are good at playing basketball after all huh? Danny turns around and nods, I guess I can still shoot from time to time. What brings you out this way? She smiles, I called your house and they said you left to come here. He nods, I see. He walks over to her and grins at her. So dad tells me that your going with us to Ohio? Danny nods, Yeah I am. She nods and looks down I see. He looks at her, whats with the long face? She sighs can I talk to you for a mintue? Danny nods and sits her down on the bench beside of him. SHe looks over at him. I got a cousin who trys to steel every guy that I show to the family. She always trys to steel my boyfriends from me. So I just stoped dating for a while and stoped showing her who I liked because she done it to me everytime. Danny looked at her and noded. Thats going to be hard to steel me from you. She looked over at him. Whys that? Danny looked at her into her eyes and said because I'll be right by your side the whole time. She looks at him sorta of and said that dont matter. She will still flirt with you no matter what I do. Sarah Danny said, I wouldnt worry to much about her. Sarah looks down and sighs, I cant help it, She takes everyone that I date. Now I got someone I really care about and may lose him to her too. Danny looks at her and saids hey now I'm not going no where and beside I love you you know that. She put a small smile on her face and nods. I love you too. Danny stands up and starts to dribble again and Sarah stands up as he stops. Oh and Sarah Danny said, I care about you too. She smiles and looks at him. Do you mind if I sit here and watch? Danny thinks for a second and grins. Nope why would I care? She smiles and Danny shoots around a little more before calling it a day. Lets get you home now Sarah its getting late and I dont want you out too late due to nuts out here running around thinking they own teh place. She nods and looks at his class ring on hier finger. You know I havent taken that off since you gave it to me? He looks over at her and nods. He walks her back up to her front door and smiles, I'll call you tommower alright? She shakes her head and grins no you wont. You will need to pack tommower, we are leaveing monday. He thinks for a second, buts it just Thursday. She smiles and nods, Well I plan on showing you the best of Ohio. He shurgs his shoulders and nods. She looks at Danny and saids, you know you will get another car. He smiles, I know but as of right now I'm not really worried about that. She looks down at the ground and said please tell you that didnt scare you from driveing? He looked at her and noded, It did. I can drive now but only if I have too. She touches his arm and said you know not all people are like that. He nods I know not all are but some do. She looks at him and smiles, You got to drive in Ohio because theres an ol drive though moive that I want to take you. He smiles at her and grins, Just for you. She smiles and whispers thanks babe. She stands up on her tiptoes and they kiss before Danny goes back to the house. Danny goes home and starts to pack a few things before sitting around the house for the rest of the day. Richie calls him around 8 that night and said Danny, I need you to help me in the morning with a book shelf. It dont want to go up like it should. Danny goes to bed and then he Wakes up in the morning and prays and Reads his BIBLE. He then PRAYS once more and then he walks over to Sarah's house to his surpize she is up and sititng o the proch. He walks up on the proch and smiles. Well arent you up a little earily? She shakes her head nope. Just dont done reading my Bible and I thought I'd sit out here for a while. He nods and askes if her dad was up yet. SHe nods and said hes waiting on him. He walks over to her after asking that and they kiss. She then pulls herself up by takeing his hands and leading him in with hand in hand. Richie was waiting on Danny with the pipe already undone and Danny laughed. First of all your leak is nothing major you didnt have to do that. Second of all heres your problem. He shoves a new L pipe on the drive and replaces the old one. When you told me where it was I figuard that that would be the problem. Now Danny turn on the Fosset and to Richie surpize it doent leak no more. Dad had the same problem a few years back. The L pipe seems to go out more than any other pipe they got. I never understood why but it does. Anyway Danny stands back up and looks at the sink. That should and will do it. If not then just call or call a plummer. Richie nods and didnt really say much. He can't his daughter was standing in the door way watching the two. He leaves the kitchen and Sarah comes in and sits at the table as Danny testes the sink for any more leaks. Sarah looks at him and grins. You know I didnt know that you could do pluming work as well. He turns around and looks at her, I guess I'm a jack of all trades. You learn alot when your dad becomes disable for a while. He gets to show me a lot of things that I need to know. Sarah looks at him for a second. Your dad is working again though I've seen him and his men the other day prtolling the streets. He nods, Yeah he's at work again but the doctors arent likeing it at all. She nods and sighs, I can understand why. Mom doesnt like the fact that he's back at work either. Oh well, I guess theres nothing that no one us can really do. Only God and when he moves in it, Dad will either get better or he will have to retire. Sarah nods and stand beside of him now looking out the window. Not to change the subject but my cousin called and heard that I was comeing in. I just hope your ready for her. Danny laughs and nods, I just hope you can put up with me for a week. She laughs I hope I can. They stand there and talk for a mintue or two and Danny looks at Sarah. I should be going. Theres a few things I need to get from work. Then I should be home for a while and I dont know what the rest of the day may bring. She nods and looks at him. Just becareful alright? He nods, I wouldnt think of nothing of the less. He walks out with out kissing her and he goes to the shop where he works. He picks up a few nails and tacks that the boss had already given him to pittle with at the house.

He sits back down on the couch knowing his mom is makeing something to eat, he could smell it once he walked in the front door. He then thought for a second what he was going to do today. His mom walks in and noticed him watching tv and that his dad was back working days again. Danny pulled out the tv remote and fliped though the channels. He was already wondering what Sarah and her family was up too. He gets up and walks in thenktichen as he noticed that his mom was makeing dinner and that his dad would be home soon to eat with them. Around 6 his dad walks in putting his gun on the table and his badge beside of the gun. He smiles at Danny and looks to the tv. There never nothing on are they? Danny shakes his head and sighs, no nothing but police shows and I've done seen them. His dad noded and looked at him. Speaking of police, are you still wanting to go to the acamady? Danny nods, when I'm old enough to go I will. His dad nods and thinks that his son would soon follow in his foot steps. Around 7 dinner was ready. Danny's dad blessed the food and they all ate. Danny went to his room and found a Bible where he left it open and he smiled at it. He knew he was done reading but he left it open to remind him that he didnt want to lose where he was. He went all over the bible anyway so to him it didnt matter. He picks up teh bible and reads a few more chapters in teh book of Revlations before closeing the bible and putting it back on his head bord of his bed. Sarah calls him around 9 before Danny layed down. They talked for what seem to be hours. Around midnight they finally hung up the phone and Danny went to bed while Sarah knew and worried about Danny meeting her cousin. Danny wakes up around 8 that morning and he prays. Then he reads the Bible for a while and then he Prays again. He sits around and then once he gets a phone call from Sarah he gets up form the couch and walks over there. The planed on going to church toghter that morning and night so he would just meet her at her house and they would go together. They walked in together as the Pastor greeted them and everyone smiled happy to see Danny again and glade to meet Sarah. Now Sarah attend a church across town with her mom and dad but this week she went with Danny to his church. As sunday school started Danny listend well with Sarah as the Sunday morning lesson sunk in about keeping yourself unspoted from the world. After Sunday School they left together and Sarah went back to Dannys for dinner. They all blessed the food. Danny took Sarah out on the point and sit down on the proch swing with her. Sarah looked at him and Danny couldnt really understand why she was so upset over her cousin meeting him. He done told her that he wouldnt leave her for her cousin but he didnt know what she was thinking. Sarah finally said you know we leave tommower dont you? Danny noded and grined, yeah I remebered. She noded and she looked at the flowers, as Danny took her hand and said I wouldnt worry about it alright? Sarah noded but Danny knew that she would still be concered about it as long as he was in Ohio with her. The day passed and they both went back to Danny's church for that night. The pastor preached just as hard as God would let him on loveing one another and treating everyone right. Danny talked to the church mebers for a while after church and prayed with the ones who wanted to be prayed for and be prayed with. After Danny prayed with everyone He took Sarah home.

The next morning Danny woke up around 5 wich is what time his alram was set to wake him. He prayed before reading his Bible, then he read the Bible. He grabed his suit case and put his Bible in on top of the close tha the packed. He walked down stairs and hugged his mom and dad bye for a while and went outside once he heard the horn blow. He put his suitcase in the trunk and hoped in the back seat with Sarah. Danny could already tell that she was still worried about the whole meeting her cousin deal. Danny sighed and thought to himself he didnt how to make her believe him. All the way down there he prayed that it would be a peaceful trip and that Sarah would stop worrying. The six hour trip seemed like it took forever as Danny noticed the nice two story house they pulled up into. Sarah smiled as her little cousin ran outside and ran up to her. Sarah picked her up and watched the others playing around in the front yard. Sarah looks over at Danny and smiled. This is Thomas, this little guy stays right with me once I come in. Danny noded and looked around as he helped Richie grabs some bags and brought them in. Once inside Richie introudce him to teh family and Sarah knew her cousin was lerking around somewhere. Danny sat down beside of Sarah and her little cousin and Sarah looked over at Danny and smiled. Thomas looks over at Danny and grined. Do you shoot hoops? Danny looked over at him and noded, yeah I play some. Then he looks at Sarah, lets go out and ball ball some. Sarah shock her head, No I'm a little tired. We can play some later if you want too. Thomas looks over at Danny, Will you play some with me. Danny looked and smiles, Sure buddy, He looked at Sarah and smiled. I'll be back in a while alright? Sarah noded and touched his hand getnly and Danny smiled. They went out back to a basketball goal hanging on teh garge. Danny let Thomas shoot for a while and then noticed that why he was missing alot. Danny smiled. Thomas, can I show you how the pros shoot basketball? Thomas smiled and noded as he watched them when he wasnt watching carttons. Danny took the ball and got down on one knee. He then asked Thomas what hand did he write with and his told him his left. Danny placed the ball on his left hand with his right hand kind of on the side like a guide. Then he showed him how to follow though and taught him how to shoot basketball realyl well. Thomas shot for a while until the sun was getting to him. Danny picked up the basketball and looked at him and passed it to him lightly. You done buddy? Thomas noded and Danny turned around to notice that Sarah was watching from the window smileing at Danny. They both walk in and Danny looks over at Thomas. Get you some water and rest up. When the sun goes down, I'll show you how to do some cross overs. He noded and left as Sarah walked over to Danny smiled at him. Danny looked over at Sarah and smiles Hes a good kid. Pretty good shooter for his age. Sarah inter laced her fingers with Dannys and then the door comes open. Sarah noticed the slim blond headed girl walking in in tight blue jeans and a tank top. She sighed and looked over at Danny. Danny knew that that must be her cousin. He walked over ot Sarah and hugged her. I havent seen you in a while she said. Sarah noded, Yeah I know, I've moved well you know that I know. Well anyway Tina this is Danny. Danny this is Tina. They noded and both said nice to meet you.

Danny smiled at her and grined. I may forget alot of things but I dont forget a date with the woman I care alot about. She smiles and noded at him as Tina thought to her self. He'll be with me before he goes back. Sarah noticed that her cousin was already looking at Danny like she was hers. Danny then looked at Thomas and Thomas walked over and took danny by the hand. I want to show you my posters he said. Danny smiled at him alright buddy. He looked at Sarah and noded, I'll be back in a few hunny. He leaves and goes with him to his room noticeing poster of Michael Jordan. Larry Bird. Danny smiled and grined. You know you got some good ol posters up here. His smile became ear to ear.

Danny then noded. Well I could show you. Sarah now looked down at the ground. Then she hears. Only first I'll show Sarah, then she could show you. That way you both know how. She raised her head up and smiled now happy that Danny knew what Tina was trying to do. Danny looked at Tina. Well I'm going to get back in and find Sarah.

Atlest let me get you something to eat? He shocked his head. No I'm not hungry. She looked at him and sighed. Alright, Danny knew that she was still worried about her. He wasnt to hungry at all but if it would make her stop worring he walked in with her and got a little bistue. He blessed it and ate it. She knew that he only done that so she would stop worrying and to be honest it didnt really work. Danny looked at Sarah. I'm going to go to bed for a few hours. I'll be alright hopefully I can sleep. Sarah looks at him and smiles. That would do you some good right now. I'm not going to my room. I'm going to go in the den and sleep for a while. Sarah nods and looks at him. I'll be here when you wake up. Danny didnt want to tell her not to stay but he knew she didnt get much sleep either. He looked at her. Why dont you go get some sleep yourself? Sarah looked at him and looked confused. Danny then looked back and noded. I dont want you to leave hunny I just want you to sleep your going to be tried if you dont. Why dont you go lay down in the spare bedroom and sleep? She noded and looked at him. She leans up and whispers. It will be alright just give it time. She kisses him and he walks to the Den. He falls asleep as the night goes on. The family stayed around for a few more hourse then they went home to rest. That next morning everyone of them turned back up. Danny woke up. He didnt feel like reading his bible but he knew he had too. He knew that God was the only one that could bring his family though this hard time. So he read. He prayed and he read some more. Sarah knocted on the door and came walking in with Danny's younges cousin wich was about 15. Sarah looked at her and she looked at Danny's cousin. Danny looked up after praying and leaveing it open he stood up and looked at them both. Hello Ladies. Sarah smiles a bit and looks at him. Feeling any better? Danny noded. Not much but I'm rested now. He looks at his cousin and sighs. When did you all get in? She looks at him. About an hour ago. Danny noded and smiled a little. Thats good. Your mom wants to know who and what funreal home you want to get your dad. Danny looks down and then back up with some tears. It dont matter. He looked at the hall way to find Betty walking in with him a plate. Betty then smiled. Danny you've got to eat something even if it just a bit of this and a bite of that. He noded and blessed teh food and ate it. Thanks he said. Betty noded and walked back out and Sarah took off her glasses to clean them. His cousin looks at him and hugs him. Danny it will be alright, they will get the guy who done this just give them time. She lets go and looks to him. I'm going to check on your mom. She left and left the door open. Sarah looked at Danny. He sighs and looks at Sarah. I need to get me some dress close out now. She noded and looked at him. we will get though this. He looked at her and smiled. I know we will. She smiled and though to herself. This was the first time he smiled in a day or two and she missed his smile. He goes up to his room and gets his close out and lays them on the dresser as his mom tells him the time the awake and the funeral. Danny noded and Sarah stood there holding his hand all the way though both of them.

After a while everything went back to the way they were. Well as close as it could be. His mom still worked her job and Danny still worked his. Sarah in her spare time stayed with Danny's mom and with Danny when she wasn't studying for a test or something. Sarah was a smart girl. She was the smartest one in school. Her grades was exellacent. Danny's mom didnt have to work she had enough to retire but it got her out of the house and away from everything that reminded her of her husban. Danny worked after schools again and when he was off he stayed with his mom and with Sarah. Betty and Richie stayed alot with Danny's mom As much as they could. Danny and Sarah only got closer as the time went on and it came to a point that they wouldnt leave eatch other side. Sarah picked a college that was close to them and her parents. She didnt want to leave her parents behinde either. Danny and Sarah never really fought about anything. When she went to college if she wanted something or needed something. Danny got it with his money. He kepted her up as best as he could and to a college girl. She lived better than alot of other college kids did. The last year od College Danny sat at the house with his mom. His mom was working and Danny called Richie to come over to the house. Richie Arrived and they sat down and talked. Danny finally said Richie I need to ask you something. Richie looked over at him and noded? What is that? He looks at him stright in the eye. I done went though the Police training. He noded I know and you work too as a cop. Danny noded yeah I do and I would like to ask your daughter's hand in marrige. Richie noded and sighed. I was waiting on this day to come but I never thought it would be now. Danny looked down not exspecting a yes because he was a cop and Sarah knew what the risk was. Richie looked at Danny. Listen, you can marry her. Just treat her the best you can. Danny noded and shock her hand. The next morning he went out to a Jewrly store and looked around until he found the one that she would like. He bought the matching set and he sighed as he pulled back into his mothers house. Danny had his own house but he still visted his mom daily. He walked in and found Betty and his mom talking and Danny looked at his mom and Betty. Betty smiled at him and huged him. His mom looked at him as Danny told her what he wanted to do if Sarah would say yes. He sat around waiting until that night. Sarah came in from school and Danny picked her up and drive her to the park where a small water fall was. She smiled and took in the the sights. You know where some of the most beauitful places are dont you? Danny noded and walks her on over to it. He looked around and sighs as Sarah knew something was going on with him. Sarah looked at him. Danny is everything alright? Danny noded and he knew his hands was sweaty. He got down on one knee. He took her hand and sliped on the ring on her ring finger. He said. You know for the past three years you've been in my life. God has to be number one and I know you understand that. She noded. HOwever Sarah you come in second and that not something I told anyone until now. I know you've still got three months left in school and I can wait on you. I just cant immage my life with out you in it and I dont want too. He then looks at her. Sarah Donalson, Will you marry me? She pulled him up with tear streeming down her eyes and she whispered. Yes I will. They kiss and walk back to his truck. He drives her back to her house and they ll go to his mom's house so they could enjoy it together. They planed the wedding after her getting out of school and starting a caree. They talked and made plans for the past three months until it was time for the Wedding to finally happen.

The day of the Wedding Danny sliped into his tux knowing that he was about to make a life changeing point here but he felt conftable doing so.
