All I Want 3

So I realized I spelt Stassie as Stacy for a while but it keeps auto correcting so I'm going to leave it as Stacy spelling

•Lias POV•
Thank god Stacy agreed to cook because I'm a ball of nerves. I have only been here for 2 days. It's been 4 days since I talked to my family back in Oregon. I know I'll work through this when I go back to therapy but maybe this dinner will help settle my thoughts.

Knock knock

"Tom, hi thank you for having us." I can hear my mum greet Tom and the bro hug slap from Noah. I know I only have seconds to plaster a smile on my face. 28 more days and we will see if I'm home again or if I'll stay here.
"Hello darling, thank you for inviting us over for dinner." My mum says walking up to me in the kitchen.
"Not a problem Mum. We have a lot we need to talk about and work out"
"Well I'm glad to see you and Tom are back together, I knew things would work out with time."
"Woah we aren't back together. We just have a temporary arrangement until I figure out what I want to do." I hear more people enter behind me.
"Stacy, Harrison it is so wonderful too see you both. How is the wedding planning?." Mum rushes over to hug them both.
"Hi darling mum I am glad you and Noah made it here safe. And as for wedding plans Haz has been very little help. I practically have to force him to wear a tux and not pajamas."
"Ok love, I wear suits to work. Don't those count?" Haz turns toward her and states.
"Oh please Haz I have seen you at least 3 times this month wear sweats and a button up thinking no one would go into your office." Tom walls in with Tessa explaining.
"Well why don't we help Stacy with dinner and chat while you boys go do something else." My mum urges trying to get the men to leave.
"Ok ma'am," Tom answers and leaves with Haz and Noah.
I don't really know how to start this conversation.
"Lia, I want to say I am really sorry for springing the marriage on you. You just have been through so much and I didn't think you needed even more on your plate. The way he spoke to you was not ok and I have already spoken to him about it." Mum rushes out before I can even have a thought spiral.
"Mum these past couple months have been awful. I am constantly sick and not sleeping. I was already on the verge of breaking when I came by the house because that's when Tom finally learned the truth and I just ran. I don't blame you guys since you are just trying to be happy. Im trying to take better control of my life but honestly it's hard. Thank you v for not hating me because of all my drama."
"Oh baby girl I could never hate you. You are my favorite child..." she is interrupted.
"I heard that!!" Yelled Noah from the living room.
"Well it's true. I love how brave and strong you are Lia. Nothing will ever change that. Maybe when things are better you maybe want to come over for dinner and officially meet him?"
She looks so nervous but I already know my answer.
"I would be honored mum. If he makes you happy then I like him already." I pull her into a tight hug that has all my love in it.
"I love you mum."
"I love you too my darling."
I feel another set of hands.
"Aww I love you both and I'm glad you made up."
"Stacy you are such a weirdo."
"But I'm your weirdo," she lets go and we finally start dinner. Of course her being the chef she lets us cook nothing. It's just us peeping while she cooks but I don't really have a problem with that. I finally have a pretty good feeling that things will work out.
