i yawned, opening my eyes to see reece smiling at me, so i grabbed the covers and tucked them under my arms, and lay diagonally on the bed, my head on reece's chest.

he played with my hair, "um, when i get home, my parents will probably ask where i was all morning, so can i tell them we're dating?" he asked and i nodded, a smile lighting up my face because of reece being my boyfriend.

i stuck my tongue out and touched his stomach with my tongue. "what're you doing?" reece chuckled.

"i don't know." i mumbled and heard paws pattering into my room.

"is it bambi?" i asked, unable to see over the edge of the bed.

"yeah." reece nodded and leant over to pick her up and give her to me, and i put her on reece's stomach, my face on his chest, and i placed a delicate kiss to his warm skin below my cheek.

i got back home about 25 minutes ago, it now being nearly 12, and i explained to my parents about ella and i, and they seemed pretty happy.

"can we meet her properly?" my mum asked and i nodded, "she can come here for dinner tomorrow! the boys can come too, if you want."

"i'll call her." i said, pulling out my phone.

"hi, princess." i said when she picked up, and heard my mum 'aww' at the name.

"hi reecey." she giggled, and i couldn't help but laugh.

"my parents want to meet you. can you come over tomorrow for tea?"

"you can come to mine, if you like." she offered.

"no, it's okay, mum says."

"honestly, it's fine. i haven't properly cooked in a while and i'd like to."

"are you sure?"

"yes, absolutely. what time would you like to come over?" she asked.

"um, like 5.30?"

"alright, are your sister and the boys coming?"

"um, lexi won't because she's gonna be at a friend's, but i'll ask the boys, if it's okay?"

"yeah, of course." she smiled.

"thank you, princess. i'll see you tomorrow."

"bye bye."

my doorbell rang and i rushed to it, picking up the puppies on the way and putting them on the sofa, telling them to stay, so they couldn't jump up at anyone.

i opened the door and was immediately pulled into a hug by reece. "hi, princess." he mumbled into my ear.

"hi." i smiled, pulling away from the lovely embrace and he kissed my cheek, handing me a box of chocolates, which i thanked him for.

"hi, i'm ella." i greeted reece's parents with a smile.

"hello love, i'm lyndsey." reece's mum said, handing me a bottle of wine, also hugging me. "you have such a lovely home, thank you so much for inviting us."

"thank you, and it's my pleasure." i smiled.

i extended my hand to reece's father and he took it, before pulling me in for a hug. "we prefer hugs over handshakes." he stated and i giggled.

"but, i'm jamie." he smiled.

"hi, lads." i smiled to blake and george, being pulled into a three-way hug.
