Can't Help Falling in Love With You

Chapter 8: Thanksgiving

November 26th, 2020

Clem-" Do we really have to go?"

Y/N-" Yes I'm sorry but I told my parents we would be there. I haven't been with my family a lot."

Clem-" Yeah that's true I've kept you from them." she said sadly.

Y/N-" It's okay, I love being with you way more than being with them." I said rubbing her back.

Clem-" I'm worried what everyone else will think of me. You said there are like 14 people there? That's a lot of adults. I haven't even met your sister. What if she doesn't even like me? Wha-"

I kissed her to stop her from overthinking.

Y/N-" Everything will be just fine my darling." I said as I hugged her and put my chin on her head. " My parents already like you. So just be yourself. But leave out the sex stuff."

Clem-" Does your family not know?"

Y/N-" They don't know a whole lot. This is probably the most personal I've gotten with them."

Clem-" Okay."

Y/N-" And if they ask you a hard question I'll help you."

We arrived at my uncle's house. Everyone was already there and we showed up 10 minutes apart from my family. I opened the kitchen door while holding Clem's hand. I could feel it getting sweatier and her grip tighten.

Clem's POV-

Y/N was holding my hand as we walked through the door into the kitchen. The house was very big.

Y/M/N-" Hey there Clementine." She said hugging me then Y/N.

Y/N-" Hi Mom."

Then another woman came around the huge kitchen island.

???-" How are you Y/N."

Y/N-" I'm doing really good." He said wrapping his arm around my shoulder." This is Clementine."

???-" Well hello Clementine. It's nice to meet you. I'm Amy."

Clem-" It's nice to meet you as well." I said shaking hands with her.

We walked around meeting everyone, most conversations were the same talking about what I wanted to do in the future, what school I went to, and if I played any sports.

Y/N pulled me off to the side.

Y/N-" So what do you think of everyone?"

Clem-" They are nice. Dustin, Jackie, Lilly, Christian, Charlie, and his girlfriend seem fun."

Y/N-" Yeah they are. What do you think of my sister?"

Clem-" She seems almost like she doesn't like me."

Y/N-" Good because she doesn't."

Clem-" Wait I was right?"

Y/N-" No I'm just messing around with you. But I still don't know."

I then playfully punched his arm.

{Timeskip to after dinner}

Y/N-" That wasn't so bad now was it?"

Clem-" It was good."

Y/N-" So I'm going to have to go home tonight but I think you can come over."

Clem-" How are we 4 months in our relationship without me staying a night at your house?"

Y/N-" Because I basically live at your place."

Clem-" That's true. I have to ask my parents though."

Y/N-" I'm sure they'll say yes."

Clem-" Yeah they like you so why wouldn't they?"

Y/N-" I think my parents like you and I don't think my sister does. But my dog will."

Clem-" You have a dog!?"

Y/N-" Yeah, have I never told you?"

Clem-" You probably have I just wasn't listening because most of the things you say are stupid."

Y/N-" Wow thanks."

Clem-" You're welcome." I said kissing his cheek as he drove.

I got a text from my mom saying "yes" and a text from Louis saying "I miss you."

Y/N-" Did they say you could stay over?"

Clem-" Yeah they said I could."

I couldn't tell Y/N about the text Louis sent, he would get too worried. He would think I was talking to him.

Y/N-" Everything okay?"

Clem-" Yeah, just tired." I said as I pretended to fall asleep.

We got to Y/N's house and I was still pretending to be asleep. I thought he was gonna wake me but he picked me up out of the car. It was nice being carried like this.

Y/N-" Come on bud."

I heard his dog run down the stairs to the basement. He opened the door and took me down to his basement. He laid me on his couch as he sat in a recliner next to me. And his dog laid on the dog bed.

Clem-" So you aren't gonna cuddle me to sleep?" I said in a fake sleepy voice.

Y/N-" I didn't want to wake you up."

Clem-" I was already awake when you parked."

Y/N-" So you could have walked in?"

Clem-" Yeah but it felt so nice to be carried by you."

Y/N-" It felt good carrying you like that."

Clem-" So are you going to join me?" I said making room for him.

He laid next to me as I wrapped my arms around him.

Y/N-" Do you want to watch something?"

Clem-" Well it's basically Christmas time."

Y/N-" 28 more days left."

Clem-" So what movie do you want to watch?"

Y/N-" Um how about Polar Express?"

Clem-" Yeah I like that one."

I called his dog over and he laid close to the couch.
