Pinky Promise? (Jaty Fan Fic)

Bringing Him Home

Katy's POV

"Okay, are you hot? Cuz I'm hot. Is it hot in here??" I said, fanning myself with a folded up piece of paper.

John laughed. "Katy relax, okay? It's not like you're bringing me home for the first time," John told me.

"Me? NERVOUS? You're funny, babe," I said. "I'm not nervous...I'm DYING. I mean, what if they don't want me to be with you! What if they just slap on those fake ass smiles and pretend to be happy and then when you leave the room, they all shoot me disapproving smiles!" I exclaimed, throwing my hands in the air.

"Has that happened before?" He asked, and I shook my head.

"Well...no...not...technically not...but it COULD!" I reply, and he chuckles.

"Hey, you love who you love, right?" He joked and I rolled my eyes.

"Who you love..." I said shrugging my shoulders.

"Who you love." John said sighing dramatically, making me laugh.

"I love you, babe." I said, as John parked the car in my parents driveway.

"I know. And I am sure that your family knows that and will respect that. I'm sure they will be happy, okay, Hun?" John told me.

I smiled and nodded confidently. "Let's do this." I said, and stepped out of the car.

John POV

Katy pressed the doorbell and a couple seconds later Angela opened the door. "Ange!" Katy exclaimed, hugging her, but Angel just stared at me. Then she cleared her throat.

"Uh, hello John." She said numbly. I suddenly got nervous. Maybe Katy's family wouldn't be so happy after all...

Katy gave me a look that said "It's okay, come on" and then grabbed my wrist and led me inside. I immediately smelled the welcoming smell of a delicious dinner, which Katy's family was always capable of doing.

Everyone chorused "Katy! Welcome home! We missed you!" and everyone surrounded her, hugging her and chattering, but Katy's grandmother stared at me. "Katy, why'd you bring this douche home?" She questioned.

Katy's mouth dropped. "Grandma!" She scolded.

"Well, isn't he the jack ass that broke your heart??" She replied sassily.

Katy blushed. "Gram, we mutually decided to not see each other anymore because I was going on tour...because of...past experiences." Katy said and everything went silent.
Keith was the one who broke the silence.

"So, um, John! What new things have happened since we last saw you?" He asked and I smiled.

"Well, actually, sir, I have been very focused on my next album. I think this next one will be a very raw...very fresh album." I told him unsure if he was really interested or not.

"Ah! That sounds cool, bro!" Keith said to me and Katy turned red.

"Dad..." She said embarrassed.

Keith and I laughed. "Isn't that what the hip, cool, young fellows say these days?" He asked and Katy covered her face with her hand.

I put my arm around her, rubbing her back. "Relax, Katy, I think it's funny!" Trying to make her feel better. She shook her head laughing.

"No, no, no, Keith! That's not what the 'youngsters' say these days, would you like me to give a demonstration?" Ann said, walking towards us.

"Oh God.." Katy and her siblings said in unison. Mary and I smiled.

We had all formed a circle around Grandma Ann and she was saying "Yo! Grandma on the track, ho!" Katy started laughing, clapping her hands, and throwing her head back. Angela crossed her arms, jaw dropped. David was recording the whole thing on his phone laughing.

Then she started to twerk as good as a grandmother with a cane could. We all laughed and chanted, "Go Ann! Go Ann! Go Ann!" She smiled and bowed.

"Grandma, that was amazing!" Katy exclaims.

"Well, I sure got to learn a lot when back when I made g-strings for those show girls, back in the day." She says.

"I don't know her, everyone! This woman is not my mother!" Mary jokes and we all laugh.

"So, what's for dinner?" David and Katy asked.

"We have a turkey in the oven as well as some salad and mashed potatoes." Mary informed us.

"Oh, that sounds lovely, mom." Katy says, carefully placing her coat on the coat rack.

Mary smiled proudly. We all walked back to the dining room and helped set up the gourmet looking dinner, and then sat down. And that's when the mess began.
