"I've heard so much about you! Chris told me stories about you! You are just as beautiful as Chris described you!" She squeaked into my ear. Wow. That was unexpected.

"Uhmm...Rachel? She'll die if you keep strangling her like that..." Chris finally spoke. Wait...what? Rachel?  As in Kirsten Rachel? Her sis?

"Ohh. Sorry." She let go of me and looked me right in the eye. Her eyes are as green as Christian's. And she is G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S. Wow. Lucky siblings. Look at the beautiful genes they inherited. "I am so so happy to meet you." She said with a smile.

I smile. "I'm happy to meet you too?" It sounded more like a question.

"Christian, honey? Is that you?" A womans voice came from upstairs.

"Yeah. I'm here." He said with a smile on his face. He seems happy. And I'm shaking. Not harlem shake shaking, shaking as in shaking of nervousness. You get me there? No? No. Okay. A woman in her maybe 40's walked into the kitchen. "Hey. I'm Christian's beautiful mother." She hugged me too. They have a thing for hugs.

"Uhhh... I-I'm Raffy." Oh men. I'm stammering again.

"No need to be shy honey." She said and walked over to Rachel. "Kirsten what are you doing?"

"Mom I'm cooking..." Chris slapped his forehead.

"Are you trying to poison Raffy?" What? I thought she liked me.

"Kirsten, let me cook. Let's admit you didn't inherit my cooking skills...Christian did." That explains it.

"Kirsten is cooking? That's why I kinda smelled something burning." I turn around and saw a man. An older man. "Oh hey there. I'm Christian's father...the one he gets all the good looks from." Chris and Kirsten laughed while their mother snorted. This enlightens the atmosphere. I looked at them one by one. I think this is gonna be a memorable night.

"This is gonna be a nice night. Look at us...having dinner together after how many months." I know the feeling Mr.Collins. I don't see my parents often.

"Since Kirsten burned the food...let's go eat outside." Her mother clasped her hands in delight. She and Kisten were also wearing their knee dresses. And Mr.Collins in a polo and slacks.

"Sure. Raffy and I will take my car." Christian said and walked to the door with me behind him. We almost reached Chris's car when ...

"Hey! I'll come with. I don't want to ride with my parents. I'll feel old." Kirsten came running.

"Ughhhh..." Christian groaned.

"Awww. I love you too my dear brother." She hugged him and proceeded to the back seat.

"I'm sorry. She's not always that hyper and...childish."

"It's okay." After 9173826 years I finally spoke.

Chris drove in silence while me and Kirsten jam with the radio. We're getting along just fine. We ate at a restaurant with those expensive foods you know. The night was fun. His parents joke around and asks me questions to get to know me. After dinner we went back to their house and they showed me Christian's baby pictures. That's what parents do right? Christian seems a bit embarassed but he looks happy too. My favorite baby photo of him was when he pressed his baby lips into a straight line and his eyes were so big. It's really cute! And until now he still does it.

"Bye Raffy. Thanks for having dinner with us. Come back soon." Her mother said while we are at the doorstep.

"I sure will if you invite me again Mrs.Collins." They hug me once more and we went to the car.

"Be careful Chris!" His father shouted.

"I'll be coming home. I won't be gone for long you know." Chris said.

"Shhhh! I'm just being an awesome dad." Christian smiled and waved before bringing the car to life.

"This night was...interesting." He said while glancing at me. Focus on the road dude. We stayed quiet for minutes. "Oh men! I thought you'd like them...were you too creeped out by them? I-"

"What are talking about?" I chuckle. "Your family is awesome." Yes they are.

He let out a sigh of relief. "Ohhh. Thank God." He seems relieved.

We arrive at my house. And the first thing I did was change into comfy clothes. I went to the living room where he is and he's watching Fast and the Furious 7. Huh I never watched that. I sat down beside me.

"I have something to tell you..." that line always makes me feel nervous!

"W-what is it?" I didn't do anything wrong lately.

"You remember that time I didn't attend school for like two weeks?" Oh. I thought I was in trouble. "I never told you the real reason why." He seems uneasy.

"Come one. It's okay just tell me." I smile at him.

"...my mom was very sick that time...but with God's help she got better and just drinks her maintenance medicine." So that's why.

"Ohhh. You should have told me that when you came back." You know...the time I punched him because I thought he was a rapist.

"Sorry. I just...I don't know."

"It's okay. She's all better now right? That's what matters."

"Yeah...I think you're right." He's opening up to me. I feel so trusted right now.

"I have to tell you something too..." here it comes. He looked at me.

"And what is that?...Is it that you really love me and you regret saying no?." Yes and no.

"No! It's something else..."

"Spill it woman. You're making me nervous." Here goes nothing.

"I was the one who slashed your tires."
