"I can't believe they aren't picking up, especially when I told them it's important," I sigh as I stand up and leave the laptop on the table and join Jamie in the kitchen. It's been almost a week since our fight and I hadn't realised that we hadn't told my parents about our engagement. And things between us, well they were on a very steep upward trend.

I wrap my arms around his waist and press my lips in between his shoulder blades and then rest my head on his back as he cooks dinner for us.

The computer's beeping signaled an incoming video call on skype.

Jamie quickly turns and we look at each other before quickly running over to the laptop and clicking answer.

"Hey mum!" I squeal as I see her, and her smile is huge,

"Hello darling! Hi Jamie! How are you?" She smiles, "DAVID GET IN HERE, YOUR DAUGHTER IS ON HERE,"

"We're good," I smile, looking up to Jamie who is standing behind me with his arm around me, "alright, we're not beating around the bush today, we've got something to tell you," I smile and his hand tightens on my hip.

"Ready?" I ask him and mum and she nods and I can sense Jamie's smile as dad walks into the frame.

"We're getting married!" I squeal and Jamie says as I lift my left hand up to show her the ring.

"OH MY GOSH!" Mum squeals and dad's face lights up, "This is wonderful," She continues to gush and they both congratulate us an ample amount of times.

"When did this happen?" Dad asks,

"On Christmas day,"

"So it took you 5 days to tell us? Oh my darling that's wonderful,"

"Yeah sorry, we had slight... difficulty a few days ago," Jamie says looking at me then kissing me on the cheek.

"Are you okay?"

"Definitely," I smile, and turn to kiss him quickly,

"Never been better," He adds.

A 'whomph' sound comes form the kitchen and Jamie utters some swear words as he notices the chicken in the pan on fire.

"Holy shit!" I run over to help him and dump the vase full of water on it.

After slamming it with a blanket a few times and the vase full of water, it's out and we're standing in the kitchen some what dumb founded with ridiculous smiles on our faces. Jamie steps towards me and wraps me in his arms and we start laughing for some unknown reason.

"Hello? Is everything alright?"

"Shit, I forgot about mum," I chuckle, unwrapping his arms from aorund my waist and walking back over to the laptop, "Sorry, Jamie forgot to turn the stove off - the chicken was being well and truly flame grilled," I chuckle and he laughs into my shoulder,

"Wow, I worry about you two sometimes," Dad mutters sarcastically and we all laugh in unison.

"Well, we need to get dinner organised considering our first option was char grilled," I chuckle as Jamie walks over to the kitchen and tries to clean up.

"No problem darling, take care," Mum says, the smile still huge on her face.

"One more thing," Dad says, "Did you get our christmas present?"

"Sure did dad, I've sent a reply so you should get it soon. But I wrote it bef-"

"Not the letter, the other things," He says and mum and I break out in laughter and so does Jamie from the kitchen.

"Yes I did, thanks for the concern dad," I chuckle, trying to keep a straight face.

"I expect them to go to use-"

"Alright! Goodbye dad! Love you guys!" I say and hang up the call.

"Your dad is hilarious," He laughs while dropping the charred chicken in the bin and setting the pan back on the stove.

"Embarrassingly hilarious," I mutter as there's a shrill ring of his mobile from the bedroom.

"Do you want me to get it?" I ask and he nods.

I jog into his room and pick up his phone as his mum is calling.

"Hello Anne." I smile, even though she can't see me.

"Jess! How are you?"

"I'm really good thank you,"

"So you two made up did you?"

"Yeah, took about 3 days but I count that as lucky," I chuckle,

"That's good, I'm glad. I don't think I could ask for a better daughter-in-law,"

"I hope Holly's not around,"

"No, I'm on my own at the moment," She sighs, "Anyway, I just rang to see how you were,"

"Did you want to speak to J?"

"No if he had of answered I would of asked to speak to you anyway so don't worry about it, tell him I'll speak to him soon,"

"Will do! Have a good night Anne,"

"Happy new year love,"

"Oh yeah! That's tomorrow isn't it? Happy new year Anne,"

I walked back out to Jamie and he was working on some new food concoction.

"Who was it? Wait let me guess, Mum?" He smiles, looking to me as I walk in and sit and the counter seat and I nod my head.

"Wanted to see if I was okay," I say absentmindedly, reading a letter sent to him that was sitting on the bench.

"And are you?"

"I'm perfect,"

He leans over the counter and kisses me quickly before tending back to the food.

"I was going to say, don't burn it again,"

"I was going to say, don't burn it again," He mimics me in a high pitch voice and our laughter rings throughout his apartment.
