I made up a lot of stuff in the chapter so just to along with it. 😄

Myself and Paul had just arrived at the airport. We had flown on two planes which was torture for me as I really do hate flying. The second plane was a little one which had really bad turbulence and had me on edge for most of the duration. We were walking off the plane and Paul spotted his dad and brother Cody. They greeted each other before Paul introduced me.

"This is Alena my girlfriend." Paul said smiling whilst wrapping one arm around my shoulder. His dad smiled and pulled me into a hug.

"Very nice to meet you, Paul's told me a lot about you." As we pulled back Cody said hello and offered to take my suitcase which I accepted. They walked ahead with our bags.

"You all look identical. You can tell that you're all related." I whisper to Paul as we walk along the dock to get a speed boat. They all had blonde hair and blue eyes. Cody was also just as tall as Paul  and had similar facial features.

"Just wait until you meet my mom and sisters." I laugh as Paul helps me get into the boat holding my waist.

(Btw I've never been to Alaska but one of my favourite films is The Proposal with Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds so I'm just going to base is around that.)

"It's so beautiful here." I say to Paul as we seated next to each other on the side of the boat. I turned my body so that I was facing forward and leaned my back on Paul's chest as he wrapped one arm around me and rested the other on the side of the boat. It wasn't as cold as I thought but it was very windy. The sky was clear blue and there were huge white mountains which I'd never experienced seeing before.  "Does it snow in this part of Alaska?"

"It's due to snow in a couple of days, so we can all go sledging if it does." Cody says.

The boat ride was short and we soon arrived at the house that Paul's parents owned. It was located on a large amount of land and looked very expensive. Paul's dad leads the way inside and I hear a women's voice approaching us.

"Mom! They're back!" The young lady yells back in the direction she came from. I'm assuming she was one of Paul's sisters. "Woahh, she's even prettier in real life! Didn't you do well Paul!" She says as she looks at me. I look at Paul questioningly but I can already guess that he has showed them pictures of me.

"Oh thank you, -"

"Ashlie, you must be Alena." She says coming towards me and hugging me. This family likes hugging.

"There she is." Paul says as he looks us and sees an older lady which I'm presuming is his mother coming towards us with a kitchen towel in her hand. He opens his arms to hug her which she does as she laughs. "Mom this is Alena." Paul says once she pulls away.

"Hello sweetie, I'm Cheryl." She says pulling me into a hug. "Come on in! I've just made lunch, Paul told me that you're a vegetarian so I fixed you up something special." She says smiling as she guides me through the house towards the kitchen which is joint to the dining area.

"That's very kind of you, thank you." I say as I sit down next to Ashlie, as she pulls me down with her. I almost laugh at her eagerness.

"I'm so glad Paul is seeing someone, he's always on his own at these family gatherings. It's really quite sad." She says. I laugh and look over at Paul who is standing in the kitchen with Cody and his dad not bothering to help Cheryl who's running around trying to serve everything up in bowls.

"I've been single for a while before I met Paul so it feels nice to be with someone." I smile.

"How serious are you two?" She says leaning closer as they walk in with the plates and cutlery.

"We've been dating for almost 6 months." I inform her.

"Awwwh." She says smiling at me. "How do you feel about Meadow?" She asks.

"She's a really cute kid, I'm not sure how my parents will react when I tell them that Paul has an 11 year old daughter."

"Are you already interrogating my girlfriend? It's not even been 10 minutes." Paul asks as his sits next to me and Ashlie's husband Will sits opposite her and Emma, Cody's girlfriend sits opposite me with Cody opposite Paul and Cheryl sat at one end and Paul's dad sat at the other.

"I wasn't interrogating,we were just getting to know each other." She says smirking at Paul.

"Is that what you call it?" Paul asks Ashlie and she just replies with a "Mhmm."

"Tuck in everyone." Paul's dad says. Everyone dives in the food and helps themselves to the lovely food on the table.

"So Alena, that's a very pretty name." Cheryl says as she takes a sip of her drink.

"Thank you, it's my grandmothers name, she was born in Greece."

"Oh that's lovely. Paul also said that you're half Italian?"

"Yes, my dad grew up in Italy and moved to New York when he was 17."

"Is your dad part of the mafia?" Cody asks and I almost choke on my drink laughing.

"No, he's the type of Italian to hire someone else." I say earning laughs from everyone around the table.

"Good luck meeting her dad Paul." Cody smirks. I look at Paul and give him a weak smile as I grab his hand under the table. My dad was exactly like the character Robert De Niro plays in Meet The Fockers and I can imagine him not going easy of Paul.

"I'm a very likeable person." Paul retorts back to Cody and kicks him under the table.

"Behave at the dinner table!" Cheryl yells. "You're both grown men for goodness sake." She rolls her eyes and glares at them both.
