Why The Hell Not (Currently Editing)

Family Dinner

Zara
I swallowed hard as we stood outside his parents door. He already knocked so they could be coming in any minute! He told me to dress relaxed and casual but I don't see how that's realistic. I'm getting ready to officially meet his parents!

Now that I think about it, he never officially met mine. I have to get that set up someday soon. It's only fair, and I know they want to at least have a conversation with him.

I had on a red long sleeve with some nice fitting jeans. I decided to give my feet a break with some simple black slides. My long hair was lightly curled, but I just had it down in a side part. I choose not to do my makeup, I don't want them to expect me to look like that on a day to day basis.

We were a little late because of Malakai. He said that Twilight was better than the Originals and I just wanted him to respectfully fuck himself! I still can't believe him for that. We got into a full argument about the subject, forgetting we had places to be.

I chuckled to myself thinking back to it, he really had me messed up.

Anyways, the door started to open so I held his hand a little tighter as a beautiful woman came into view. Her face held a few wrinkles but she carried her age gracefully. She was a little taller than me, maybe 5'7 where I stood at 5'3. I could quickly see that Malakai has her eyes and smile, my favorite features of his.

"Hello, darling! I'm Patty" She said, pulling me into a hug. I was shocked, but hugged her back. She smelt like warm cookies, just like her son does to me. She instantly brought me comfort from their similarities. "Come on in you guys"

She practically pulled us inside the house that had a homey feel to it. It was warm and inviting in here.

Kai took my hand as she led us to the dinning room. I made sure to take in my surroundings, noticing every picture of Malakai. My favorite so far is the one with his diaper on his head! He had to be like 2 years old.  

Once we entered the dining room his father gave him a very small, almost unnoticeable, smile.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Kyle" his father said, reaching to shake my hand. He had a very firm handshake, you could tell he was an Alpha. He spoke with certainty and authority. He made sure to stand straight and look me in my eyes as he shook my hand. Zion always said to make eye contact while shaking anyones hand so they know you mean business.

His father didn't seem mean at all, he just had a 'don't fuck with me and I won't fuck with you' vibe to him. The man had to be 6'6!

The moment we sat down at the table there was a knock at the door. We all looked down the hall then back at each other.

"I got it. Patty, my queen, could you get the food together?" his father asked his mate.

"Of course, my love"

I couldn't help but smile. They were so cute.

She looked over to me and returned the smile. "Care to help me out?"she asked, using her head to gesture to the kitchen.

"Um yes, yes ma'am" I said, looking back at Kai. Almost like I was making sure it was okay. Really I was nervous to be alone with her. He nodded at me, giving me a little confidence as I followed her in the kitchen.

Lord was it a gorgeous kitchen! It looked like one of them kitchens off the cooking channel, perfect.

She already had everything for the sandwiches next to a griddle.

"How about you assemble and I toast them up?" She asked, turning on the griddle.

"Sounds good," I said. Everything was laid out in order. It's no way I could fuck this up. All I have to do is go down the line.
