A Heap of surprises

Josh.. your parents? I don't think I can
Come onnn we've been together for a year now, I think it's time you met my parents ( he holds my hand)
I know and it's really sweet of you but ...
But..?
Josh,what if I'm not what they expect?
What they expect?
Josh, your parents would be expecting a white skinny blonde girl from a rich family who can play tennis.( He smiles and shakes his head)
Yvette you're perfect, and I love you, my family will too
What if they don't?
Then screw them( I smile and hug him)
Okay I'll come see them Tomorrow...with you
I can't wait love. And by the way I hate tennis..
Bye( I kiss him on the cheek)

After work Ellie and I went home and Jackie was there to visit.
Yvette what are you Soo worried about.. Josh's parents are going to love you.
Jackie I'm not sure how true that is..
Are you gonna dump him if they don't like you.
Ellie, I don't care if they like me..I'm worried about Josh , I'm scared that he'll actually disregard them if they don't like me.
You'll be fineeeee( Ellie says holding tequila)
Want some?
Ellie,I'm meeting my boyfriend's parents tomorrow I can't drink..
Jackie?
I'm breast feeding
Whatever, tomorrow is my day off I'm getting drunkkkkk.( She storms into her room)

Is she always like that?
Jackie, Ellie is nuts.( We laugh)
You know,I can't stop thinking about home, does your dad really think you're dead?
Jackie I'm not sure he even cares, he's having fun with his wife..so much so that he doesn't care about me, I'm so worried about my mom..why she left, when she left and how she left
And I don't get why they included me in this, Esme wanted you out so her daughters will inherit the property..so why did she bring me?
I'm guessing to make it seem less suspicious
She's a monster!
That she is and she'll pay for it, Jackie , I promise.( I hug her as Jake comes to pick her up)

3rd person pov
Yvette woke up pretty early for work, she wore a brown dress and straightened her hair, she wore matching heels and set off to work. No matter how tensed she was about meeting Josh's parents she loved him so much, she placed a huge smile on her face,she drove to work.
Woah Ms Yvette you look stunning.
Thanks Charlie
Ms Yvette you know it's not too late right? You can still dump the rich boy for me( he leans over the counter and Yvette laughs)
Honey forget about it, okay so you have a huge trip ahead of you Charlie, you have to deliver the cupcakes and doughnuts to Ontario.
I can't believe I have to go there again, Canada is so cold .
You only deliver twice a year, and besides we have to make this deal with the supermarket work, so we'll bake and package them so you can start..your flight is at 2 pm right?
Yes, Rosie did you book me for business class
Yes Charles ( he walked over and kissed her forehead)
Okay Giselle,let's get to work.( After working she took her car and went to see Josh, even though he wasn't showing, he is scared...he wants Yvette to meet his family but his family is also not sunshine and rainbows, all he wants for her is for her to be open to the idea of a family..he loves her so much, so much, that he's never felt like that before . He wants a future with her, with her toughness, her crazy, everything but she has to be open about family. He saw her park her car , she looks so beautiful to him.

Hey you came
Yes
You look beautiful ( she smiles and hugs him as they head into his house)
Mom? This is Yvette ( Yvette's stomach tightened as she looked at Mrs Stinson)
Nice to meet you Mrs Stinson ( she smiles and extends her hand, Mrs Stinson stared at her for a while..and Yvette was losing her mind..she then pulled Yvette into a hug)
Oh my world, you gorgeous baby ( she hugs her tightly and Yvette smiles) you are so pretty... Joshua Jason Stinson why have you kept her all to yourself
Momm I knew you'd high jack her , Sarah didn't let me see her for a week ( he gives Yvette a back hug)
It's so nice to meet the woman my son can't stop talking about.
You can't stop talking about me huh?..it's lovely to meet you Mrs Stinson.
Oh honey call me Lily, I hear you're a baker, everyone in town really loves your goodies.
Yes..in about 3 months we'll be launching our company.
Ohhh a business woman I like that( Josh excuses them)
Well I still have a lot to learn from people like you.
I'm sure you'll get there honey..you have really have changed my Jason, I see the way he looks at you, he loves you.
And I love him...you know I wasn't expecting this?
What?
I was expecting...
A stuck up rich bitch?
Yeah( Lily laughs and looks at Yvette)
Well what would you have done if I told you to stay away from my son?
I would have shut you up and be with him anyway.
I like you! You're tough.( Josh came in with his dad)
Mr Stinson it's a pleasure to meet you ( he kept staring at his files without giving her a glance)
Yeah yeah..well I have to get to a meeting ( he looked at her and was struck, he gave her a glance which made Yvette's stomach turn)
