Maeve

Grey pulls the car into the driveway. The house is the same as I remember it.

The Graham residence is decorated old money style, Eleanor, Atlas's mother, loves this style, she says it reminds her of her childhood home in England.

The driveway is long and right in front of the house is a circle that has a little fountain, Atlas's car is parked right in front of the stairs. Grey parks the car right behind Atlas's and behind us, Kai and his parents pull up.

I get out of the car with a small black bag on my shoulder and the Mac and Cheese in my hands. It stopped snowing about an hour ago.

I decided to go with the black long skims dress and short beige sweater on that only covers my arms and a little bit of my chest. On my feet, I went on with a pair of basic blazers. I decided that it was better to leave my hair natural. I didn't do my make-up, because I wanted a natural look.

"Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. Adams" I greet Kai's parents as they get closer to us.

"How many times did we tell you to call us Jane and Erik?" Mrs. Adams says.

"Countless times, Jane," I tell her, and she gives me a big smile.

Jane has blonde hair with blue eyes. At the age of forty-five, she looks like she has thirty. Erik on the other side is as tall as Kai is, he has brown hair and hazel eyes. They are both beautiful, and Kai is the perfect combination of the two.

Kai has two plates of cookies in his hands that are wrapped in plastic foil.

"Jane, are those your famous cookies?" I ask as she comes next to me.

"Yes, they are, darling. Is this your famous Mac and Cheese?" she returns my question pointing at the tray in my hands.

"Yes, ma'am," I tell her and a smile spreads on her face.

Everyone loves my Mac and Cheese and I don't understand what they like so much about it.

The door opens when we get to it. Atlas is standing in front of us wearing a pair of black suit pants and a black shirt; I know for sure that his mother made him wear this outfit.

"Come on in," he says with a smile on his lips.

Jane and I enter and Mr. Adams and the boys follow us.

"Good evening!" Alexander, Atlas's father, says coming next to us "Atlas take the tray from Maeve!" he continues.

Kai and Atlas head to the dining room, and Grey follows them while they start talking about basketball. I swear to God that I don't understand how they play football but are completely obsessed with basketball!

I made Grey wear a pair of suit pants and a white shirt, which fits him perfectly. Jane is dressed in a beautiful navy blue dress that comes tight to her knees. She looks stunning. Erik is dressed the same as Alexander, in a full Black suit with a white shirt.

"Is she here? Is she here? Is she here?" I hear an excited voice coming from the dining room.

Michael comes running down the hall.

"Maeve!" he yells with a big smile on his face.

He wraps his arms around my legs. I bent down and I pick him up.

Michael is about five years old and he looks exactly like Eleanor, brown curly hair and green eyes. Atlas took from his mother just the curls. Alexander is the one with black hair and blue eyes. Michael is the spitting image of his mother and Atlas is the spitting image of his father.
