Summer break had started.

We were all going back to Monaco. I knew she was going back too. Clara had come with me. We were on the airport picking up our suitcases.

I grabbed Clara's flower suitcase and put it besides her.

"Thank you." She smiled and gave me a short kiss.

"You're welcome darling." I smiled and grabbed my suitcase.

She held my hand as we walked through the airport. My brothers were meeting us here. I saw Elodie and Max laughing and chatting while walking to the door.

I saw Arthur and so did Elodie.

"Oh mon Dieu." She exclaimed excited when she saw my brother.

"Elodie." Arthur wasn't expecting her. A smile appeared on his face as he dropped all his things and ran towards her hugging her.

"Arthur, you're so big." She put her hands on his shoulders. "The blonde duo is back." She chuckled and tousled his hair. Arthur chuckled.

"Bennet." Lorenzo greeted her and she smiled and hugged him.

I stood there frozen. My family really loved her.

"Wow, I know you're so excited to see me but calm down." I spoke with sarcasm and they looked at me.

"Charles." Arthur smiled and hugged me, patting my back.

Max walked towards us and stood besides Elodie, wrapping his arm around her.

"Hello, Max." Lorenzo shook hands with him and Max smiled. "Who is she?" Lorenzo looked at Clara.

Well, this wasn't uncomfortable at all.

"Uh...this is Clara my, my..." Clara looked at me raising her eyebrows when I struggled to let out the words. "My girlfriend." I gulped and forced a smile. "Clara, this are my brothers. Lorenzo and Arthur." I pointed at them.

"Nice to meet you Clara." Lorenzo respectfully shook hands with her.

Arthur looked at Elodie and she shrugged. He looked back at Clara. He was visibly confused.

"Um, yeah, I'll see you later." Elodie smiled uncomfortable and walked away with Max.

I watched her walk away while Clara shook hands with Arthur.

"I swear, it was the most uncomfortable thing ever. I just stood there while she introduced Clara to his family." I spoke to Margot as I took out the keys to our apartment. "You should've seen the look on Arthur's face." I opened the door and walked in.

"That sounds hilarious." Margot chuckled. "Like something out of a romcom."

"It wasn't funny to me." I spoke.

Suddenly, I tripped over a box. I cursed under my breath and turned around.

"What the hell is that?" Margot asked confused.

I looked at the box wrapped with blue paper and immediately knew what it was.

"Olga." I smiled and picked up the box to walk towards the kitchen.

I put it on the counter and grabbed some scissors to open it. There was a letter, some chocolates and a recipe book.

"Aw, that's so sweet. Maybe you'll actually learn to cook with this." Margot grabbed the cooking book and I glared at her.
