"Brian! Hurry up! We're going to be late!"
"Do we have to go? I don't even think your parents like me!"
"Bri, my dad loves you. And you know how my mother gets, so don't worry about it!"
"But I don't even get the point of what we are doing."
"I already told you. You know how some people say that there is Christmas in July? Well the Stepiens have had an early Christmas in July every year since I can remember. Now come on!"
Meredith had to practically pull Brian outside and put him into the car. She knew he hated seeing her family from the pressure that he put on himself to impress them, but he did not have a choice in this. If they were going to be in a serious relationship, he would need to suck it up.
The entire way there Brian continuously was tapping his foot and twiddling with his thumbs to stay calm. Meredith glared over at him from the driver's seat. "You look like you are about to shit your pants."
"Well I'm about to if we don't get this thing over with soon."
Once she pulled up outside her childhood home she hopped out of the car and held Brian's hand. They walked into the house, not bothering to knock.
"Mom! Dad! I'm home!" She shouted and was soon met by her parents and brother, each giving her a hug and a kiss. Brian soon gave the men of the family handshakes and hugged her mother.
"Nice to see you all again." He said with a small smile.
After a few moments of awkward silence Meredith clapped her hands together. "Alright! Let's celebrate!"
Brian and her both ran out of the house and grabbed the presents that they had bought. Once inside again, they sat in the cool air-conditioning as they began to exchange gifts. Brian received some decorations for his apartment from all the Stepiens but later David gave him his real present. Condoms. Meredith received an apple pumpkin candle and a nice smelling shampoo that she always liked to use. She had given her family members random inside joke "gag" gifts. After a little while it was now Brian's turn.
"Alright, Bri. What do you have for us?" She asked excitedly.
Brian let out a sigh he did not know he was holding. "So, I didn't really know how this sort of thing worked so my presents may not be completely up to par.
"I'm sure they'll be fine." Meredith reassured him.
Brian gave her parents something for their home and he got David a pack of vintage baseball cards that he had wanted. Now it was time for Meredith's present. He was practically shaking by this point due to his nerves.
"Okay. So Mere…your present is a little different from everyone else."
"That's fine with me."
He paused for a moment before taking a tiny box from his pocket. As he opened it, he saw her eyes also open up widely.
"Oh my god…"
"So, Meredith. I love you so mu-"
"YES." She yelled and threw herself into his arms.
"Yes to what? I didn't ask you anything!" He chuckled.
"Oh be quiet! I'm gonna marry you!"
With that he slipped the ring onto her finger. Well Christmas in July went pretty well for being his first time.
