I went back into the living room, which Timothee always makes fun of me for saying but I don't know what else to call it. Flopping down on the other side of the sofa I put euphoria on.

"You're watching this again?" He said.

"No"

He just stared at me and I did the same before turning my attention to the tv.

"I was joking before" He said.

"I know"

"I mean it'd be nice for Maddy to come with you next time and would make me feel less worried"

"What do you mean less worried?"

"You know"

"No I don't know" I said, but I did.

"She could just...keep you from doing stupid shit that's all"

My mouth dropped slightly.

"Because I can't take care of myself?"

"No I didn't say that"

"Yeah but that's what you meant" There was a moment of silence that seemed to fill the room.

"You know I haven't pushed you to talk about what happened that night"

"And I appreciate that" I really didn't want to get into this now, to be honest I was trying to block the whole night out and it had been working.

"But you can talk to me about it. You can talk to me about anything" His voice soft and sincere.

I didn't say anything and returned back to watching the tv. Yes I was probably being a bitch because he just cared about me, but was I a reckless person? When I thought back I realised how many times Timothee has seen me in a complete mess and then I thought back to that article I read saying I was going to ruin his image. And then I fell asleep.

"Lucie Lucie Lucie Lucie" I was woken to my body being crushed.

"What...Katie?" Was I dreaming.

"Mums in the kitchen"

"I thought you were going to tell me when your flight got in?" Still half asleep.

"We wanted it to be a surprise and also figured you'd be sleeping" she smiled.

"How'd you even get in?"

"That boy let us in"

Shit shit shit. Then I realised I was in my bed which I didn't remember getting into.

"Why don't you go look around and I'll be out in a minute" I smiled.

I quickly threw on baggy black jeans and a black lace top that was on my bathroom floor. Taking a quick glance in the mirror my hair was a curly mess so I shoved it up on top of my head. It was bad enough I hadn't told my mum about Timothee but I wasn't really expecting her to meet him like this.

"Hey mum" she looked at me with the biggest smile and instantly gave me a hug.

I looked over at Timothee who was sat with my sister on the couch. They were talking about something but before I had time to listen in my mum looked at me.

"Who's this?" She said it so that he couldn't hear.

"Timothee my...friend" the hesitation on friend didn't go unnoticed.

"Well your sister seems to like him"

I looked over to her laughing and seeing them both sat there together made my heart melt. 

"Does she really?" I heard Timothee say to Katie.

"Come on Katie our cars outside" my mum said.

She said bye to Timothee and so did my mum.

"So we'll go to our hotel and then we can do whatever you want" my mum said before leaving with my sister.

"I'm sorry. I didn't expect them to be so early" I looked at Timothee who was smiling.

"You don't need to be sorry and besides at least I've met them"

"Well my sister seems to like you"

"She reminds me of you. How old is she?"

"Eleven. Even though there's a big age gap we're really close"

"Well I'll go and let you spend time with them" he kissed my forehead and I put my arms around him. I loved this and us.

Just wanted to mention that I know beautiful boy was released earlier in Timothee's career, but for this story I'm just gonna pretend it's not out yet xxx
