pretty boy || jackson avery

three.

two months later

"hey, come on, we've slept all morning,"

i turned to the sound of jackson's voice and roll to face him, in his bed. i had been staying at jackson's house for a couple weeks now, and honestly, i practically lived there. we had gotten closer to each other, and you could definitely say that i was in love with him.

"good morning, beautiful," he smiled and leaned in to kiss me. although we had been seeing each other for two months now, we weren't official. it definitely seemed like we were in a relationship, but we never really brought it up.

that was until today.

i had rolled out of bed and went to the laundry to change into a sweater and jeans. jackson and i both had the day off, so we decided to spend it together and do a couple things. after i had finished getting dressed, i met jackson in the bathroom where he was also already dressed and brushing his teeth.

i joined him in the bathroom and grabbed my brush out from one of the drawers and brushed my hair before putting it into a half up style, with a small ribbon hanging out of the ponytail. i then finished off getting ready by brushing my teeth and putting on deodorant and perfume.

by the time that i was done getting ready, we heard the door bell and i turned to jackson, confused. "were you expecting anyone?" i ask him and he shakes his head no. "i never invited anyone over, but i'll go get it,"

jackson walks out of the room and i follow him down the hall and to the front door, i was a good ways away from the door, but close enough to the door to see him open it and see none other than the catherine avery at his front door.

"mom? what are you doing here?" he asks, stepping aside to let her in, before engulfing her into a hug. "well, i was in town and i talked to richard and found out you were off today, so i of course wanted to stop by to see my only son,"

she pauses for a second before making eye contact with my nervous ridden self. even though the guy who i was seeing was born into the avery family, i never expected myself to meet catherine avery in person.

"and who is this beautiful young lady?" she asks, looking to jackson, before looking back at me with a smile. "mom, this is my girlfriend, zoey," i step up from behind him when he says my name and smile at her. "it's great to meet you miss avery,"

"oh please, honey, call me catherine. and jackson, how dare you not tell your mother that you had a girlfriend, not to mention a gorgeous one at that," she smiles at me once again, before giving jackson a scold.

i was shocked to hear jackson call me his girlfriend, he could have introduced me as his friend who was just over to hang out, but instead he introduced me to his mother as his girlfriend.

"i'm sorry, i was waiting for a good time for you to meet her, come on into the living room, and excuse us for once second," his mom nods and takes a seat on the couch before i drag jackson by the arm and back into his bedroom.
