Imagines for the Eyes

Dinner Date

🙈

Friday was any normal day for Nicole. She got up , got dressed for school, & was on her way. But, that day was a little bit more special because this was the day her boyfriend of two years was finally coming to meet her parents. 😇

That's all she could really think about those last few class periods of school. Her main man coming over for the first time. 🙊🙈

So, all class, she texted him to make sure he was still going to make an appearance & not chicken out like the last two times he was supposed to come. 😒 He promised he wouldn't, & told her to not stress about it.
But, that didn't stop the thought of her parents not liking him from running through her head. 😩

So, when Nicole got home, she made sure everything was top notch. 👌 Made sure she washed every dish, plumped every pillow, swept every floor, straightened every sheet. She made sure the house was on point & that her parents didn't have to ask her to do anything. 🙌

Around 6:30pm, Nicole's mother walked in to find a nervous Nicole waiting on her. 😳
"Nicole, if all this nervousness is from that boy coming over, maybe you should just wait until you are ready, " her mother said as she went & sat next to Nicole on the couch. 😊

"No, Mom. I'm ready, " Nicole said, trying to convince herself while also convincing her mom. 😄

"Okay, Nicole... if you say so. I'm going to go make me a snack. Your father will be home at 7:15. Go do something until then."

Nicole dawdled up the stairs to her room & slowly shut her door. She walked to her bed & wondered why she was so nervous about Jamal coming all of a sudden. She was the one that suggested he come anyway. 😁

As she thought about the pros & cons of Jamal meeting her parents , her phone dinged . She looked at it & saw that it was Jamal texting .

|| MyKing👑👫💏: Bae, I know you tripping out about it, but cool it. It's going to be fine. Your parents are going to love me. I'll see you at 8:30, gorgeous💖 ||

Nicole could do nothing but smile & blush at his gesture. That's one of the things she loved about him. He was able to sense her emotions & he wasn't around at all to witness anything. & for him to know for a fact that this was a big thing & that she was freaking was amazing. He knew just the right thing to say to make her loosen up a bit. 🙈

So, at 7:20 when her mother came in & told her that her father wanted to see her, she was a little bit looser than what she was when she spoke to her mother.

Nicole walked down the hall to her father's in home office & sat on his plush leather couch.

"Now, Nicole. I know you think I'm going to be hard on this young man, so I wanted to let you know -."

"No, Dad. You're going to love him. & even if you don't like some things, you'll learn to accept them because I love him & you love me enough to accept his flaws." 💖

Her father looked at her with that loving look of his brown eyes & smiled. He stood up & hugged her tightly.

"You got that right, Sweetheart. But, his flaws can't be too extreme."
Nicole laughed .

After they hugged for a few more seconds, she walked back to her room & laid out her attire for the night. Curve hugging jeans, with an Aztec print sweater, & some tan ankle boots. She knew Jamal wouldn't be able to resist her in them jeans.

After she got it laid out along with her bag & few accessories, she headed to take her shower. Her boo would be there in less than an hour, & she wanted to be fresh. 👌
