Father In Law!

As Logan stood about to meet the man who might soon become his father-in-law, his heart pounded with nerves. The prospect unnerved him, not least because Jean had expressed views on marriage strikingly similar to his own; this was his old father-in-law's standard too.

Meeting him for the first time, Logan couldn't shake his apprehension. Jean's words earlier did little to calm his spirits.

"My father's eager to meet you," she had said with an enticing grin.

"And if he approves, you could bring me home as your wife," she added, her smile sweet yet teasing.

Logan balked, "This is moving too quickly. We've only known each other for what, five days?" His past life's sensibilities still echoed within him, making the swift talk of marriage unsettling.

"What's the rush? You like me, and I certainly like you," Jean countered, her gaze piercing into his.
