I would just like to say that for the record, I wrote this one a long while ago and I believe my writing has gotten better. If there are any hate comments to me or anybody including Tom or other users they will be deleted. Anywho... here we go!

Tom proposed to me not long ago and so we will be getting married soon. The problem is, he hasn't met my family yet. I know he should've met my family a few years ago but I couldn't bring myself to do it. But he's going to have to meet them if my father will be giving me away. I have been trying to avoid this as much as possible because my family is the most embarrassing family ever. Tom might actually want to break off the marriage if he meets them. He always reassurse me he won't but I'm still worried. My family has been wanting to meet him just as much which makes it extra hard to avoid. I have a few brothers named Keith, Sawyer, and David, who are as weird as the day is long.

My father and my mother won't do anything that embarrassing but they can still be weird on their own time. Tom wants to meet them pretty much as soon as possible, which would be this weekend for us but I don't think that's gonna happen for my family. I called my father and he said that this weekend won't work. He said maybe we could do it the first weekend of September. I'm still freaked by doing this but there really is no way out of this one. Tom said we could do it then, so it looks like we are. He doesn't want me doing things that make me feel uncomfortable but this is something that kind of has to happen if you are with someone. He does everything to make me feel comfortable and I wish I could do something in return, and I wish it wasn't this.

But this is something Tom really wants, I've met his family and now it's time to meet mine. But my family and his family are very different.
The day has come for Tom to meet my parents. I'm seriously freaking out right now. I can feel Tom's arm sneaking its way around my waist as we start walking up the driveway. "It's ok my dear. This isn't going to be nearly as bad as anything you're thinking of right now. I promise." I look up to him with a rueful smile. "You can't promise something you don't know." I say as he kisses the top of my head. Curse him being so much taller than me. When we get to the door my father is already there. "Why (Y/N), it's so lovely to see you again! It feels like forever." He nearly shouts.

"It has been quite a while." I respond. He looks from me to Tom, reaching his hand out. "It's nice to finally meet-" He's cut off by my brothers David and Keith. They come racing out of the doorway, knocking me out of my spot next to Tom and onto the ground. "Hey!" I yell. They look down at me. "Whoops, sorry sis." David says in a sarcastic tone. Keith who's right behind him, both facing my way, gives me a nasty look. Tom comes out from the back of them, putting his hand out to help me up. "Are you alright, love?" He asks. I dust myself off and look up into his blue eyes. "I'm okay, thank you baby." I answer. I see my brothers looking at me over his shoulder, dishing out disgusted expressions as Tom and I show our endearment towards eachother with words.

When I hug him, I give my brothers an annoyed look, hopefully causing them to stop being imbeciles. Sadly, it doesn't work. "How about we all go inside and relax. Sawyer and your mother are almost finished with dinner." My father tells us. Dinner smells delicious. Nothing like a homemade meal. When we walk into the house, Keith takes Tom into the living room while David pulls me aside to the dining room. "I don't really have time to talk, I have to make sure Keith doesn't embarrass me and ruin my relationship forever." I say, starting to walk away, but David puts his hand up blocking me from going anywhere. "Have you really thought about this?" He questions. I tilt my head in confusion. "Thought about what?"

I asked back. He rolls his eyes. "I mean, it's one thing to date a celebrity, but marrying one while you aren't one? Have you ever thought about the chaos?" "Chaos? What's wrong with you? Tom and I are in a happy and stable relationship and if there were any problems we'd talk through it. It's called communication." He rolls his eyes at me like I'm the dumb person here. "Let me ask you something. How many times has Tom went to go film somewhere while you were dating?" I think about it for a minute.

"Not many times. We've spent most of our relationship together, and when he would go filming, he'd offer me to go too. Of course I would never be able to though considering I have a job too. It really sucks sometimes." He raises his brow. I on the other hand, still not understanding what he's getting at. "I'm just saying, he would more than likely be traveling and filming a lot more now that you're getting married and aren't just dating. Would you really want to be in a relationship where you don't even get to see your husband?" He leaves the room. I think about it for a moment and then start to worry. Not because I wouldn't want to be in a relationship with him, I do more than anything, but that he might not want to be with me.
