After having a nightmare about Mavis's possible fate, Jayson is sitting up straight in bed, gently hugging his knees.

     Mavis stirs awake and sits up straight. "Jay? Are you okay? What's wrong?"

Jayson looks at Mavis with glimpses of his nightmare goes through his mind.

          "We need to talk." Jayson said in a worried tone.

         "Okay, what is it?" Mavis asked.

          "Do you remember what I told you about my nightmare? About you falling?" Jayson said.

          "Yeah, you told me. And we said that we didn't have to worry." said Mavis.

Jayson looks at Mavis with a worried look on his face, and which Mavis becomes worried herself.

            "You had the same nightmare again, didn't you?" Mavis asked.

            "Yeah, I did." Jayson tells her. "You were falling through a tower, you were surrounded by fire and bricks, and I flew down to you. I don't know and I can't explain it."

        "And now, you're worried about losing me." Mavis said, understanding how worried Jayson is. "You're not gonna lose me, Jay."

Jayson and Mavis exchange soft looks at each other and she gently caress his cheek with her hand.

            "I'm right here with you." Mavis said to him.

             Jayson and Mavis exchange small smiles at each other and she pecks a kiss on his forehead.

          "Let's go back to sleep, don't want to be cranky in the morning." Mavis said.

Jayson and Mavis exchange playful chuckles with each other. They both gently lays back down with the fluffy bedcover covering them both.

          "What? Why?" Jayson asked.

         "My Dad and I are having dinner with the Mayor. My Mom, dude." said Frankie with a smile.

            Frankie small smiles at Jayson and he small smiles back at her.

           "Oh, shit. You're gonna ask Mavis to marry you." Frankie said.

         "Alright, then." The jewelry store woman said, taking out a display case and opens it, revealing some engagement ring.

            Jayson looks at a green engagement ring. "How much does the green engagement ring cost?"

        "$197.00." The jewelry store woman told him.

           "Shit." Jayson said, gently runs his hand in his brown shaggy hair, but then, he remembered the cash he's been saving in his savings account. "Wait, I got it."

          "You do?" Frankie said, a bit surprised.

           "Yeah, dude, I've been saving money in my savings account." Jayson told him, taking out his wallet and pays for the engagement ring.

          "Oh." Frankie said, realizing that Jayson has a job as a photographer.

            "I would like to marry your daughter." Jayson said to him.

          And Curtis happy smiles at Jayson. "Absolutely you can, Jayson."

           "Really?" Jayson said.

         "Yes, really. You and Mavis have been in love with each other since the two of you were in middle school and high school together." Curtis Haddock said. "And you're such a gentleman for asking me."

          "Thanks." Jayson said. "And please, don't tell Mavis."

          "I won't." Curtis Haddock said.

          "Alright, I'll see you around." Jayson said, getting up and walks away.

            "You too, Jay." said Curtis and he resumes his computer work.

PARK

          "Do you remember when me, you and Frankie were little kids, we would eat ice cream sundaes at my grandma's café?" Jayson asked.

           "Yeah, I do." Mavis said to him. "You, me and Frankie were nicknamed 'The Little Munchkins' by your grandma, Melissa."

              "Yeah, and I was the mischievous one." Jayson said.

Jayson and Mavis exchange playful chuckles with each other and they sits down on a bench.

         "Why are you bringing up our childhood, Jay?" Mavis asked.

           "Just to reminisce." Jayson said, setting down his half-eaten ice cream sundae on the bench in between himself and Mavis. "Mavis? You and I have been in love since we were little kids. Our parents knew, your parents knew, and even Frankie knew."

Mavis gently sets down her half-eaten ice cream sundae on the bench beside Jayson's.

             "Jay? Why did you really suggest ice cream sundaes and took us to the park?" Mavis asked him.

Jayson nervously chuckles to himself and takes out the green engagement ring from his jacket pocket, which surprises Mavis.

           "Jayson?" Mavis asked.

Jayson gently gets down one knee on the ground. "Before I ask you, I just wanted to let you know that I'm not doing this out of fear of my nightmare, I'm doing this because I love you very much. You've been supporting me ever since I became Super Knight and you and Frankie have been there for me every step of the way."

            "Understandable." Mavis said. "About the 'out of fear of your nightmare' part."

Jayson and Mavis exchange small smiles at each other.

         "Mavis Leigh Haddock? Will you marry me?" Jayson asked.
