I don't own Total Drama.


Harold was very nervous. And rightfully so, too.

He was going to meet with the father of his bodacious beauty. Now, normally it wouldn't have been a problem because LeShawna was a total daddy's girl, but this was one on one time with the man.

Dressed in his best suit, he followed the man into his living room, swallowing the lump of nervousness that was rising in his throat. Dinner invitations at LeShawna's house were rarely extended to him and he knew that the idea of LeShawna dating anyone made her father uncomfortable, but he wasn't dissuaded.

He was sure that LeShawna was the woman that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. He wanted to wake up every morning to her luscious curves, her delicious chocolate complexion, her beautiful dark hair. He wanted to share a bed with her. He wanted to be the one to make her dinner, rub her feet and make her smile.

He wanted to marry LeShawna Hudson.

Of that much, he was sure. In fact, he was sure that he had never been so sure of something in his entire life as he was invested in that one fact.

He sat down on the Hudsons' couch as LeShawna's father sat in the armchair across from him.

"Did I offer you a seat, boy?" Mr. Hudson asked, not looking very pleased by Harold's inviting himself to a seat.

"Sorry!" Harold said, jumping to his feet, his face getting hot with humiliation.

"Sit down." Mr. Hudson snapped, giving Harold a look of annoyance that gave the boy nausea. He was nervous enough as it was to begin with. "Why are you here?"

"Oh. I, uh-" Harold began, wringing his tie with nervousness. Swallowing his fear, he straightened his now-creased tie with sweaty hands and clasped his hand in his lap. Taking a deep breath, he began, her nerves catching his words in his throat the first time he attempted to speak. "I wanted to ask for your daughter's hand in marriage."

"Hmph!" Was Mr. Hudson's only response, and Harold, mistaking it for delight or even humour, continued.

"I love LeShawna with all my heart and I want to spend the rest of my life with her. I'm sure she's my soulmate, and I just want to make her happy." Harold said in a single breath. Taking a deep breath, he wiped his sweaty palms on his dress pants. "May I have your blessing to marry LeShawna?"

"No."

The hopeful grin was wiped off of Harold's face in one second flat.

"No? What do you mean 'no'?"

"I mean you will never get my blessing to marry my daughter." Mr. Hudson said, frowning at the boy in his living room. "A scrawny white boy like you could never make my little girl happy. No, she needs a real man. I want you out of my house right now."

Harold was numb as Mr. Hudson grabbed him by the arm and escorted him to the door, and his mouth was still agape with shock as the Hudsons' front door was slammed in his face.

The answer had been no.

How could it have been no?


Gotta say, I'm not a fan of this couple. Sure, Harold is annoying, but LeShawna really played with his feelings in TDA and TDWT. I can't really ship them now because of that.

Constructive criticism always appreciated! Please review!
