Joe took a deep breath as he knocked on the door. He knew Thalia was nervous for him to meet her dads. It went over well with Joe's parents, but Winters and Nix were easy-going men.
Joe clenched his hands around the flowers as a tall man with dark brown hair opened the door.
"Uhm hi," Joe began.
"You're Thalia's boyfriend right?" Speirs cut him off.
"Hun, he's fine come on and let him in." A shorter man with brown hair wrapped an arm around the other man's arms, "So you're Joe right?"
"Yeah," he nodded awkwardly.
"Thalia talks about you all the time come in, come in." The man pulled the other guy away from the door.
"It's nice to meet you guys finally," Joe shook Ron and Carwoods hands.
"Woah! Thalia's dates here!" George came flooding down the stairs.
"Shut it, George!" The short girl with black hair pushed her brother the rest of the way down the stairs.
"Hey!" George whined as he hit the floor.
"Can you two be nice to each other?" Carwood turned around in his chair glaring at his kids.
"Nice flowers Joey," Thalia pocketed her phone and took them from Joe, "I hope my dads are being nice to you."
"We are Thal but I have to give this one the talk." Speirs sat forward towards Joe in his seat.
"Nice flowers Joe," George mocked his sister.
"Would you stop that!" Thalia threw the soap bar at George hitting him in the chest. She filled the vase the rest of the way up with water and put the roses in the water.
"Thalia!" Carwood raised his voice, "George can you please go up to your room for a moment?" George reluctantly rolled his eyes and stomped upstairs.
"I want Thalia home by midnight, no funny business at all." Speirs gazed a dead stair into Joe. Joe bit his lip and ran his hand through his brown hair. He nodded as he was scared of what would happen.
"Dad I'll be fine," Thalia sighed grabbing her keys and shoving them into her pocket.
"Treat her with respect and if you lay a hand on her I will have you under MP arrest," Speirs whispered coldly to Joe.
"Have fun okay?" Carwood clasped his hands and glanced at his husband then back at his daughter and her date. Joe and Thalia had both dressed up to go to dinner and then the local amusement park. Joe had on black jeans with a loose grey shirt and a dark brown jacket. Thalia had on fishnets, black jean shorts, and some sort of witchy crop top. Speirs didn't approve of some of the stuff she wore but Carwood had his husband under control.
"Let's get going Joey," Thalia grabbed Joe's hand and pulled him towards the door, "Bye guys! Love you!" The two walked out to Joe's car, he had gone through the car wash at least two times to get his car looking nice for their date. They'd been together five months and all Joe wanted to do was impress her.
"MP arrest huh?" Joe laughed as he started the car. A smile finally pulling upon his lips.
"He's high up in the military you know. Thinks he has some control over the boys me and George bring home." Thalia smiled and held Joe's hand.
"Your dad is scary but your other dad on the other hand." Joe smiled squeezing Thalia's hand.
"We get that a lot, George's boyfriend is still scared to come over after his and George's dinner with them." She chuckled lightly and noticed every detail about Joe. The way his face shape was just perfect.
"Like what you see?" Joe giggled and glanced at Thalia with that stupid smirk the makes her go wild.
"You know it, Joey," she punched his shoulder lightly. The two rode in silence, comfortable silence.
At the amusement park, Thalia found a photo booth, "Joey come on!" She dragged the tallboy over and into the booth. The first picture was just them smiling. The second was them making silly faces. Third Joe kissed Thalia's cheek and the fourth them sharing a hot and heavy kiss.
"So I never asked you how you got the name Thalia?" Joe asked staring into her green eyes.
"My dad, he always liked names that reminded him of something. Thalia in Greek I think means to grow." She shrugged, "George is named after George Lucas." Thalia doubled over onto Joe laughing.
"I like that," he kissed her head and bent over grabbing the pictures that had been printed. Splitting the two strips in half and giving one to Thalia.
"Oh, Joe don't be such a cliche." She giggled and ran her hands through his fluffy brown hair.
"Thal, you're so mean to me," Joe smirked and pulled them out of the booth. She smiled up at him and squeezed his hand.
"Maybe but I got it from my dad," she winked as she skipped pulling him along to a booth.
