Chapter 14 Cleo introduces Cion-Nero to the McQueen clan
It has been several weeks now that Cleo and Cion-Nero have been together, Cleo thought it was the right time to introduce Cion-Nero to the rest of the McQueen clan
"Cion, don't kick off please. As we have been together for 5 weeks now I'd like to invite you to come to my Auntie Myra's house so you could meet my family" expressed Cleo
"Hey beautiful, why would I kick off about that it's only fair you've met my two sisters, I'd like to meet your mum as well" explained Cion-Nero
Cleo was a bit fazed as she didn't know how to tell her boyfriend that her mum is actually in prison but this didn't go un-noticed by Cion-Nero
"Hey what's up" questioned Cion-Nero
"Ermm nothing Cion" Cleo expressed her concern
"Cleo McQueen, we've been together for 5 weeks and already I can tell there's something else that is bothering you, as I've said to you before you can tell me anything and it still wouldn't change my mind how I feel about you" Cion-Nero said
Cleo struggled to tell him, she paused for a minute took a deep breath and told him about where her mum actually is
"Well my mum is in prison" Cleo said quickly
"She's what" asked Cion-Nero as he didn't understand she she said it quickly
"My mum is in prison as she attacked the person who abused me and she tried to kill him once by running him over" Cleo explained
"Well I've only got one thing to say about that good on your Mum" Cion-Nero jokingly said
Cleo gave a half smile and told her boyfriend her mum's name and a bit more about her
"My mum's name is Reenie, Myra and Kathleen are her sisters. The worst thing about my mum that she's a recovering alcoholic but she falls off the wagon if something is tough to cope with" Cleo expressed
"Oh well I'd like to meet her when she comes out and give her a hug for what she did to that person plus it doesn't bother me what your mum is, it doesn't make me change my mind about you" Cion-Nero added
Cleo smiled again she knew why she feels so safe and secure around him as she makes her smile
They both left to make their way to the McQueen's house
As the couple was walking to the McQueen's Cleo reached down to grab Cion-Nero's hand as she felt safe and the right time to hold her new boyfriend's hand in public
"I must warn you Cion, my Auntie Myra loves winding people up" Cleo explained
"Oh I'll deal with that everyday Sash and Lexi wind me up as I'm the youngest" Cion-Nero said
"I get that as well with my oldest sister Porsche but she's moved away now so I only have Celine" Cleo expressed
The new couple smiled as they arrived at the McQueen's
Cleo opened the door and walked in with Cion-Nero following behind her
She shut the door behind them
"Celine are everyone upstairs" questioned Cleo
"Yeah, I'll shout them" Celine answered
"Thanks Celine" Cleo said
"EVERYONE CLEO AND HER BOYFRIEND ARE HERE" shouted Celine
Myra and Diego come downstairs also to be followed by Mercedes and John Paul
"Everyone I'd like you to meet my boyfriend Cion-Nero" Cleo introducing Cion-Nero
"What sort of name is Cion" Myra said
Diego, Celine, Mercedes and John Paul all looked embarrassed
"Sorry about that Cion-Nero" Celine said
"It's ok Celine and Mrs McQueen the reason my name is Cion is because if you jumble to letters around it spells out Icon that's why my oldest sister Sasha-Kira gave me the name and my mum agreed to the name" explained Cion-Nero
"Oh ok I get it now, I apologise for that and it's Myra" apologised Myra
Everyone looked amazed in shock did Myra McQueen just apologise to someone for the first time ever
"Come here Cion-Nero" Myra said walking towards him to give him a hug
The young 20 year old felt awkward but smiled
"Cle this one is a keeper, keep hold of him" said Mercedes
As she also gave him a welcome hug while John Paul and Diego shook Cion-Nero's hand
"Welcome to the family Icon" Myra said
"Auntie Myra it's Cion" Cleo correcting her Auntie
"Well it's Icon to me" Myra explained
Cion-Nero started to laugh then Cleo looked at her boyfriend
"See what I mean, she's like this all of the time" whispered Cleo
"I can tell" Cion-Nero whispered back
"I think this is an time to celebrate" Myra expressed
"Your pregnant remember mum" Mercedes said
"I know that" Myra said
"Could I invite my two sisters" asked Cion-Nero
"More the merrier Icon" Myra added

"Yes that's fine with us" said John Paul
Cion-Nero waited until everyone got their drinks the he went to order his own and Cleo's drinks
"Could I have an half pint and a large glass of white wine please" Cion-Nero ordered
"Certainly sir, i'm Nathan by the way" Nathan said
"I'm Cion-Nero, Cleo's boyfriend" Cion-Nero explained
"Nice to meet you mate, I'll get your order now" Nathan suggested then started to pour the wine into a glass then pour the half pint

"Oh that's Alexa-Angelina my sister and the other one with the hat on is my oldest sister Sasha-Kira and there you go" Cion-Nero explained and then handing over the money
Nathan smiled and put the money in the till
Cion-Nero walked back over to the table where he and Cleo were sitting
"There you go beautiful, I hope it's the right drink you wanted" Cion-Nero said
"Yes it is, thank you Cion" Cleo replied
The noise coming from the other table where the McQueen's and the Parker sisters were interacting Cleo and Cion-Nero were sitting on a different table in a quieter part of the pub so they could talk
"Cion can I just say thank you so much for being here for my and I know it's too early to say it but I think I am falling for you" Cleo expressed
"I'm glad you brought that up I have been feeling the same way but I didn't want to say anything that would upset you" explained Cion-Nero
"That would never happen Cion, I feel so safe and secure when I'm around you now I know what true love feels like and I know it's what I'm feeling now" Cleo yet again expressed her feelings to her boyfriend
"That's good then as I feel the same but I do want to still take it at your own pace Cleo" Cion-Nero also expressed
Cleo smiled at her boyfriend and looked into his eyes then went to lean in for a kiss
Celine saw Cion-Nero and Cleo share their first ever kiss and smiled then nudged her cousin
"Mercy look" Celine whispered pointing in the direction of the couple
Mercy had a big smile on her face then both the McQueen's and Parker's all looked and smiled
"I'm glad she has someone like him" Celine said to Alexa-Angelina
"That's my brother once he cares about someone or something he protects them so much, no harm will come to your sister while he's around I can assure you that Celine" Alexa-Angelina said
The both families were still interacting and getting to know each other while at this point Cleo is sitting on Cion-Nero's lap hugging him with a big smile on her face
