Meredith's POV


"I'm nervous, Teddy. What if your mom thinks I'm weird or annoying or something?!" I ask Ed with pure terror as he eats his fresh omelet I made him.


"Mere, don't worry. My mom is a lot like yours, but she's slightly older and a bit more stressed out because she has to live with two rude, obnoxious guys." He replies looking right at me, but acting like his mind is far off somewhere else.


"What if they don't like me?"


"My brother and dad shouldn't be so quick to judge. Plus, I really don't care what they think of you, I love you, their opinion won't change or make me think any differently." He says resting his left hand on top of my right hand on the table.


"Fine," I sigh, taking a bite of my all cheese omelet. "But even if you don't have a god relationship with your father and dad, you still care what they think. Even just a tiny bit, because I didn't want to care what my dad thought when he came, but I ended up caring." I say trying to prove my point.


"Because he was able to change and mend your relationship, but for me - I don't want mine to get better with them. They've done so many things to screw me over at this point, I don't want it to get better between us, especially if they don't like you."


"Okay, but I'm also nervous for you. I know you haven't seen your family since you started your Multiply tour and you don't really get along with them. I don't want you to be upset or sad if they say something.


"I won't be sad, that's for sure. Maybe angry, but that's probably at it's worst." He smiles making me smile in return. Seeing his dimples settle on his face underneath his beard makes me automatically feel much better than I did prior to the smile.


"You finished your food?" I ask him, making him nod in response. Taking his plate with mine, I place doth in the sink as he stands and stretches out his arms.


"I'm going to go start choreographing the first dance for Thursday." I say as I hop up the stairs to the guest room with we put a full wall mirror on one wall for. I won't be able to do anything while guests are over, but when they're not, I can dance all I want.


"I'll be watching football if you need me then." I faintly hear him say from downstairs as I plug my phone into the speakers and look through my music for the perfect some to do. I need to start this job off with a big bang, what song would be able to do that?


"Ah-ha!" Smiling to myself, I pick out 'Immortals' by Fall Out Boy. It can send a message as well as be a strong group number with a lot of acrobatics.


Most of the time when I'm choreographing my own dance, I just put the song on and do what my body tells me. Not what my mind does, I don't even feel like I'm moving when I do it, it just happens. But here, there's multiple parts and a group all together. Not to mention, they're all young and I don't know what they can and can't do yet.


I'll have to be a little more calm than usual for this number, but still energetic. I'll do what I normally do for my own dances just for the girl that'll be the star of this dance, then I'll figure out and add the other parts featuring that girl. I believe there's only seven girls so I can feature a different girl in each number as well.


Ed's POV


After the game finishes, Meredith comes downstairs, nearly dripping in sweat. "I love this dance already." She smiles padding her feet over to where I lay on the couch.


"Ewww, don't sit with me, Merebear. You're all sweaty and smelly."


"Sweaty; maybe, but smelly; I don't think so. I am wearing a whole lot of deodorant right now."


"Well, I don't want all your scented sweat all over me either." I laugh out. Only Meredith.


"But I want to cuddle my Teddybear." She whines with a pouted lip and extremely large eyes to make me feel bad, that's another things she's really great at. She can bring out your emotions, she wants you to feel bad, you will.


"Fine, but you're showering after this. It's already 3:00Pm (15:00) and we're meeting my family at Languini's at 5:00Pm (17:00)." I say as she lays down in front of me and snuggles into my side.


"Okay, I just got this all natural and organic coconut shampoo and lavender conditioner. It's supposed to make your hair grow a lot faster, you can use it too, but they're pretty girly scents so I'm assuming you wouldn't want to." She rambles on as I securely wrap my arms around her and rest my chin on her head.


"You're the most random person I've ever met, and I've met many people, Mere." I laugh making her giggle enough to make her nearly fall off the couch, but I catch her before anything bad happens.


"So I've been told." She says, and although she's facing away from me and towards the TV, I know that she's smiling, I can hear it. "Being random is actually one of my favorite trails, it's hard to get bored because you're always thinking about something." She says making a good point. It's kind of like having a big imagination.


"What song did you do for the choreographing?" I ask her quietly because I'm right near her ear.


"Immortals by Fall Out Boy." She replies just as quietly paying close attention to whatever show is on the TV.


"Good choice," I say looking up to the TV as well.


We spend about half an hour just laid out like this watch basically nothing before she starts to wiggle from my tight embrace. "I need to shower, do my hair, make up, get dressed, and mentally prepare myself." She says mostly to herself rather than to me.


"You do that." I reply as she walks out of the living room. "Enjoy your coconut shampoo, Merebear!"
