 "Mama please do not bring out the child pictures." I begged my mother. Today Kaylas and Weylin were coming over to meet Elliot and my Mom's. My Mom's are the definition of embarrassing. Everyone thinks that they are so cool which don't get me wrong they are but they can also be very revealing. For example, they insist on having my pictures as a child out on display even though I begged Mama to take them down. "Fine darling, I will take them down but I really don't think you should be ashamed of your cute little cookie monster pajama-wearing self." Mama joked even though she looked completely serious as if we were talking about politics. I groaned loudly to show my annoyance.

 I went into the kitchen and saw my Mom dressed as she usually is with her tattoos out on display and her button-up black shirt half unbuttoned but not quite showing her chest, tucked into her tight black ripped jeans with multiple chains hanging off of them. You don't have to tell me how badass my Moms seem because trust me I know, they remind me every chance that they get. "Hey Mom" I sighed. "Is Mama trying to pull the child pictures of you out again?" Mom asked. Mom is a hell of a lot more chill and laid back than Mama but they are both really chill if I'm being honest.

 "She finally agreed to put them back." I informed my Mom. She nodded her head in acknowledgment. The doorbell rang and Sam and Elliot raced to the door to see who would be able to open it first. "No running in my house boys." Mama said as she started walking towards the door. Mama can be hella intimidating without even trying so Sam and Elliot immediately slowed down. I was closest to the door so I ended up winning when I wasn't even competing. I opened the door and a smile automatically grew on my face when I saw Kaylas.

 "Hey, babe." I greeted and gave him a quick kiss. "Come on in." I said, making room so that they could walk through the door. "Hello darlings" My Mama greeted them. "Hello Ms. I'm Weylin" Weylin introduced himself. "And I'm Kaylas" Kaylas said as they both shook her hand. "Wonderful to meet you both and please call me Scyla." Mama said with her softer tone. "Of course, we actually brought you something." Weylin told her. I told them not to bring them anything but I don't know why I thought that they would listen to me. 

 "Oh, you boys didn't have to do that." Mama told them. "Nonsense, Jaylen and Sam told us about you and your wife's jewel collection so we went out to the mall yesterday and found this small shop that had tons of real jewels and it was only ten dollars a pound, so we bought you guys some." Kaylas chimed in and then gave her his signature heart-quenching smile. I don't think he even realizes how he could make someone instantly fall in love with him with that smile. I know that's what lead to me falling in love with him. Holy shit did I just say, love? You know what, we're just going to push those thoughts away then obsess over them later.

 Weylin handed Mama two velvet bags filled with jewels. I knew Mama was hooked on them now. I think Mama loves jewels more than she loves her own wife and kids.  Mama was about to speak again, most likely to say thank you, when Elliot interrupted her. That earned him a glare but nothing else before Mama stalked off towards the kitchen. "I'm Elliot, Sam and Jaylen's older brother." Elliot introduced himself, trying to sound intimidating and actually succeeding for once. "Hello, nice to meet you." Weylin said. "Listen here you too, if you dare hurt either of my brothers I will have your heads, whichever head that may be, got it?" Elliot interrogated. 

"Got it." Weylin gulped. "Got it. We actually got you something too Elliot." Kaylas informed him, not seeming scared in the slightest. "Really?" Elliot questioned them. "Yeah, Sam told us about your love for comic books so we got you the new edition 'Spiderman leaving the Galaxy' comic." Weylin told him, still looking slightly nervous as Kaylas handed him the comic. "Okay, I like you guys now." Elliot said with a huge grin on his face, dropping his interrogation. "I think Mom is in the kitchen, if you want to meet her." Sam said. "Lead the way." Weylin responded as he grabbed Sam's hand.

 I pulled Kaylas aside before he followed them into the kitchen. "Your very good at this whole meeting the family thing." I commented. "Well, I decided to actually try since I know how much family means to you. I mean I could have shown up naked and slapped everyone I saw but I decided against it since your such a good boyfriend." Kaylas joked and praised. "Come on doofus, I want to meet your mom." Kaylas said. He has grown accustomed to that stupid nickname but it's cute when he calls me that so I just go with it. 

 We walked into the kitchen and Mom was already hanging onto Weylin's every word. Yup she likes him already. Kaylas walked up to them to introduce himself to my Mom. "Hello ma'am, I'm Kaylas, Jaylen's boyfriend." Kaylas introduced himself. He also put on his beautiful smile once again. Mom swooned at him like she would a puppy. "Hello, nice to meet you Kaylas. You can call me Sitri." Mom said. "Ok darling that's enough chit-chat, would either of you boys like something to eat?" Mama asked. "No thank you we just ate lunch before we came over here." Weylin told her. 

 "Ok well, you can go hang out and do whatever now, if you'd like." Mom told them. "Would you boys like to stay the night?" Mama asked them. Sam and I simultaneously said yes before they even the chance to respond. "I wasn't asking you two but alright. If any of you have sex in my house tonight please just use protection." Mama said to us as she walked off to the bathroom. When she came back she had a box of condoms in her hand and she handed them to Kaylas. 

 "Oh don't worry me and Jaylen will not be having sex." Kaylas assured Mama. "Well, we'll take those from you then." Sam said as he grabbed the box from Kaylas then practically dragged Weylin towards his room. "Desperate" I mumbled under my breath about Sam. I pulled Kaylas towards my room. "So what'd you think of my Mom's?" I questioned Kaylas. "They're super cool. They're like out of a mafia movie." Kaylas told me. I only laughed in agreement. Then we laid together on my bed with Kaylas's head resting on my chest and my arm around him as we watched "Romeo and Juliet" for probably the hundredth time (much to my happiness) as we tried to ignore the sex sounds that Sam and Weylin were making in the other room.
