Meeting the Family

"Hey, what are you doing?" Nick asked me curiously. I looked over my shoulder at him "I'm getting ready; your parents want to meet me…" "You still want to meet my parents?" I gave him a skeptical look and sat beside him on my bed "of course. Why wouldn't I want to meet your parents?" Nick shrugged "well, I was just considering how you would feel, seeing as how your parents just died…my parents are probably the last people you want to see…" I leaned my head on his shoulder "thanks for caring Nicky, but I'm fine. I want to go. I want to meet your parents, and Frankie, and Kevin…" He wrapped his arm around my waist "alright. If youre sure this is what you want. Just let me know if you change your mind. Put on something casual." I laughed and kissed him on the cheek, and he left me to get changed. I put on black skinny jeans, and a black off the shoulder top with black balet flats. I straightened my bangs and pulled my wavy brown hair into a side ponytail. Before leaving my room I transferred everything from my silver balloon purse, to my black Coach purse then I finally went downstairs, where Nick was waiting for me.

We went out to his car and he started driving to his house. On the way I fiddled with the strap of my purse, I was nervous as hell about meeting his parents, what if they didn't like me? Would he dump me because of what his family thought of me? I really hoped not. We hit a red light and he looked over at me, he grabbed my hand, firmly but gently and my eyes met his, it seemed like he read my mind, because he lifted my hand to his lips and kissed it lightly, "they're going to love you, don't be nervous." I smiled and held his hand while he continued driving.

Not long after, he pulled up outside of the house and he looked at me once more "are you sure?" I took a deep breath and nodded "yes, I'm sure." He nodded and leaned in to peck my lips lightly before going inside. We walked up the stairs to the front door, Nick held my hand as he pushed the door open. Joe looked up from the keyboard as the door opened and smiled at me "Mom! Dad! They're here!" He got up and hugged me, squeezing me a little too tightly, and I heard Nick clear his throat. Joe pulled away and gave his brother a smirk that I couldn't read the meaning behind. I looked up at Nick with confusion on my face but he shook his head and led me into the kitchen.

Kevin and Frankie came down the stairs and into the kitchen behind us, smiling at me and Mrs. Lucas turned around from the stove. She envelopped me in a big hug "welcome! I am so sorry about your parent's sweetie, but Paul and I will always be here for you!" I looked at Nick who was shaking his head in embarrassment and I smiled "thank you Mrs. Lucas…" She smiled warmly at me "oh sweetie, you can call me Denise." I was given hugs by Mr. Lucas, and Kevin, but Frankie seemed shy. They made me feel very welcome, and for the first time in a very long time, I felt like I actually belonged to a family…

Again, im SO sorry for not updating more often. Like I said, I have five (5) chapters to upload after this one.

So I hope you enjoyed
