Baby Boom || Liam Payne <Complete>

Chapter 30: Come Home... With You?

"What the hell are you doing?!" I screeched in surprise as I was somehow tackled onto the bed and showered in kisses.

"I'm kissing you... What else?" Liam laughed.

"How would you like it if I tackled you and and started kissing you everywhere, huh?" I asked as I sat up at the foot of the bed as Liam came to lay his head in my lap. His looks up at me, mischievously.

"I would very much enjoy that, actually." He laughs as I blush beet red and slap his chest. Our laughter dies down and we're soon just laying there. Me running my hands through his hair as he closes his eyes and puts his folded hands on his chest, trying to rest.

The boys had recently went into the wealthy buildings of Modest! Management early this morning at 6:30 and didn't come home till 2:00 in the afternoon. Supposedly, they had to discuss tour dates and what would be going on until their "Where We Are" tour starts next year in the states. My poor lad came home absolutely exhausted. Who wouldn't?

"Come with me when I go see my parents for Christmas." I choked.

Wait, what?

"Come again, love?"

He looks at me through his eyelashes.

"Come back home with me so that way I can introduce Jakob and yourself to the family."

Well, bummer. How do I respond to that? I never in a million years would've thought Liam would ask me that question. Go with him..... back home? To see Karen and Geoff? And all his sisters? My head starts to spin just thinking about it. Would  it be a good idea to go? My plans this Christmas were just to maybe have a little pass around with the boys and their gifts, then afterwards they go off and enjoy the holidays with their families. Jakob and I would've had our own little thing here. I'd maybe call over Ken or Cassie (whichever's not busy) to come over for a while and have a Christmas here. I had nothing else besides just trying to make this Christmas special fr Jakob in mind. There isn't much I could do, I'm kind of stumped in a way. It's my first Christmas with out John. 

Usually, we'd switch off on Christmas' and get up super early and make the other breakfast in bed. Then, we'd go to open our presents afterwards and watch Christmas movies all day after that. Goof around, cause chaos, spread Christmas cheer, get on each other's nerves, and just be brother and sister. Occasionally, we'd go outside and play in the snow. We may be mature adults but we're really kids at heart. Like Louis.

But there won't be any of that anymore. And I'm lost as to what to do now. I have another addition to traditions, now that Jakob joined my family. I have to figure out a whole new Christmas ritual and try to make this Christmas the best I can, not only for Jakob, but for Liam as well now. 

Liam shifts in his position so that now he is sitting criss crossed in front of me. He gently takes my hand in his and massages the back of it with his thumbs. "I know that you're probably having a war in that head of yours," he leans in so that are foreheads are touching. "but I really hope you will do this. You're part of my family now Jess. I desperately want you to understand that. You're an absolutely amazing woman and I would love for my family to see that. I've told my mum about you and it seems the minute she learned how much you cared for me, she fell in love with you." He laughs as he strokes my cheek with the back of his hand. "You've been the talk of back home for weeks. My sisters would love to meet you and my father wants to know about this mystery girl who has suddenly stolen my heart." He semi-finishes. I blow out a puff of air.

"Do they really?" I ask in doubt as I look away. "Or are you just saying that." He gently takes hold of my chin so that I'm facing him.

"I'm not just saying that, Jay. It's the truth." I look anywhere but him, still not completely sold on the idea of meeting his family. And it's not that it's bad, it's just walking into another family, years and years after you walked out of your own family is a struggle. It really is. But I guess a part of me really wants to go. Maybe Liam's family will be more of a family to me then my father and mother ever were. 

"I think they fell even more in love with you after they heard what you did for Jakob." 

"How did they find out about that?" I asked. Though, it was obvious. 

"A little bird might've told them." He says as he looks around the room and whistles. 

"I don't know Liam." I tell him honestly. He looks at me with those big doe eyes. "Don't get me wrong, I'd love to meet your family. I really do but I..... I'm scared." He looks at me confused so I explain further. "What if I'm not who they make out to be? Liam you know I'm not exactly family proof." He chuckles.

"Well, don't you think it's worth a shot and try to be family proof again?" I look at him with an 'I don't know' expression. "For me?" He asks as he widens his eyes and makes them bigger.

Change is good right? Yes, yes change is good...

"Under one condition." I give in. He breathes out a breath of relief as he grins that breath taking grin in which it reaches his eyes and pulls me into his chest. It vibrates as he laughs.

"Anything for what you just agreed to." I smile into his chest then look up at him through now serious eyes.

"If they don't like me in any way, shape, or form..." I stop.

Should I say it? Or would he maybe take it as a way of me trying to drop him. I don't want him thinking any of that.

"Then what?" He said with a playful smile. I give a forced one back.

"You're driving to and from. There's no way in hell I'm driving for a whole 2 hours and 30 minutes." I say instead. No this was not my original telling but like I said, I didn't want him thinking anything negative of it. However, I rather hear the erupted laughter coming from him now than have his brow creased in confusion.

"You got it, love." He says as he kisses me.

Well, this should surely be a happy holiday.
