A/N: I only own Iris. Keep up the reviews if you want the story to continue. Enjoy.
We got into the SUV. John hopped in the front. Randy and I slid in the back. I was so nervous. Randy could tell. He leaned over.
"You are going to be fine." he whispered in my ear. I just smiled.
"Iris, this is Marc. He is the one I am working on my album with." John told me.
"Nice to meet you." I told him.
"Same." he said looking in the review mirror. I just sat there.
Great, he doesn't like me! I thought. I felt so out of place. I just wanted to sink into the seat. I sat there and listened to the guys talk and the music. We were driving down the interstate. I saw John slid his hand between the door and the seat. He gave me the "I love you" sign. I did it back in his palm. He sat back in the seat. Randy looked over at me and pulled me next to him. I wanted to be anywhere else. We drove a little farther and got off. We were driving on some back roads.
"We are here!" John said. I was so nervous. Randy gave me a squeeze. We pulled down a long gravel drive way. Trees were on both sides of the driveway. We drove for a few minutes before a large, two story, house came into view.
Marc pulled the SUV up and parked it. People began to stream out of the house. I freaked and grabbed Randy.
"John…" Randy said. John turned to see me hiding in Randy's shirt.
"Baby?" he asked me. I didn't answer. He got out of the car and hugged everyone.
"Where is she?" one of his brothers asked him.
"She is hiding. She is a little nervous about meeting all of you." he told them.
"Iris?" Randy asked me.
"I don't want to go out there. They aren't going to like me!" I told him.
"Iris, yeah they will. Don't worry about it." he told me.
"I can't do it. There are a lot of them." I told him. He laughed.
"Let me out your door." I told him.
"Where are you going to go?" he asked me.
"I don't know, but I don't want to face them!" I told him.
"Iris, it will be ok." he told me. I tried to crawl over him. He stopped me and I continued to struggle.
"Alright, everyone inside. We will be in, shortly." his mom told them.
"Thanks, mom." he said and opened the door. I was just sitting there glaring at Randy. He wouldn't let me out.
John opened the door and looked at me. He smiled and took my hand.
"Come on. It's just my parents. My brothers and friends went inside." he told me. I slowly got out of the car. Randy had already gotten out. I stood up and shut the door. I looked at his parents. They looked so nice.
"Mom, Dad, this is Iris." he told them. I shook his dad's hand and his mom gave me a hug.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. & Mrs. Cena." I told them.
"Iris, please, it's Carol and John." his father said. I smiled at them.
"You ready to meet everyone else?" he asked me. I shook my head no.
"They are not going to hate you!" John said. I just put my head down.
"Come on. There is a back door." his mom said. I looked at her.
"I don't blame you. I would be nervous as well." she told me. She took me to the other door and we went in. We walked in.
"Are you hungry?" she asked me.
"No ma'am. I am fine." I told her.
"I want to see her! Marc said she was hot!" someone yelled from the other room. I turned red. Carol tried not to laugh. I just stood there. I wanted to be anywhere else. The door to the kitchen flew open and I saw Randy coming in. The people all turned to look and I saw them all get up.
"Get her!" one of them yelled. I looked at Carol.
"Up, 2nd on the left." she said. I took off running up the stairs and found the room. I heard someone right behind me. I shut the door and locked it. I turned around to find myself in John's old room.
"Damn, she's too fast!" I heard someone yell. I sighed and turned on the light. I saw old pictures hanging up, jerseys in the closet, his bed was covered in a fluffy, blue spread. I didn't picture his room like this. I saw a picture on his nightstand. I looked at it. I saw John and a pretty girl with red hair standing there holding each other. I flipped it over.
"I love you!" - Love, Liz." I saw on the back of the picture. I realized it was his fiancé. I put it down and looked around. I saw his old football helmet on his dresser. I got up and walked over there. I saw more pictures of John and different people. I was looking at them, when I heard the door handle jiggle. I froze. I looked under the bed and there were boxes of condoms and other things. I looked in the closet and realized I had enough space. I got in the closet and shut the doors. I could see through the slits in the door. I saw John and some guy walk in with our suitcases. They put them in the floor and the other guy left. John opened the door and called for his mom. She came up to his room.
"Yes, John?" she asked him.
"I thought she was in her." he said.
"I told her to come in here. Oh, I know where she is." his mom said. I just watched. She came in and shut the door.
"What are you doing? Are you sure she didn't go into one of the other rooms?" John asked her. She walked over to the closet and opened it. I was sitting in the floor. John saw me and smiled.
"You can come out now." she said. I crawled out and stood up.
"How did you know?" he asked his mom.
"John, you did the same thing, when you were upset or freaked out. I followed the motherly instinct." she told him.
"I am sorry." I said and apologized to her.
"Sweetie, don't worry about it. I shouldn't have let everyone come over. I didn't even think you would be nervous." she said. I smiled.
"Good night, you two." she said and walked out. I just stood there with my head down. I figured John was going to be mad at me because of how I acted. He walked over and sighed. I was waiting to be yelled at. He ran his hands over my arms. I felt a shiver. He placed his hand under my chin and brought my eyes to meet his. He kissed me gently.
"You aren't going to yell?" I asked him.
"No, baby. I am sorry. I forgot that everyone would be here." he told me. He kissed me.
"Oh." I told him. He smiled.
"How did you get away from them?" he asked me.
"Your mom told me where to go and I ran!" I told him.
"Yeah, I know. Matt tried to catch you." he said.
"Who is that?" I asked him.
"He is one of my brothers. I have Matt, Dan, Sean or Boog, and Stephen. They are my brothers. You met Marc, my cousin." he told me.
"Oh, I am sorry." I said, apologizing again.
"Say it again and I will have to punish you." he warned me.
"Sorry." I said in my little kid voice. He smiled at me with a bad glimmer in his eyes. He grabbed me and kissed me with force. I just kissed him with everything back. We were kissing when there was a knock at the door. I looked at John.
"What?" he yelled.
"Where am I staying?" we heard Randy yell back through the door. We laughed.
"Hold on." John said and kissed me on more time. I smiled and he walked over to the door.
"Downstairs in the back bedroom." he told Randy.
"Iris, you ok?" Randy asked me. I nodded.
"Has everyone left?" he asked Randy.
"Yeah, it's just your family." Randy said.
"Are you hungry?" John asked me. I nodded.
"Come on. Let's grab something to eat." he said and we went downstairs. I was not ready for what I saw.
