MARCO POV

As the door opened there were only two things on my ming. First, let go of Louise's hand and test how quickly I can run away from here. Second, drop dead. But both of them, did not include Louise so I swallowed hard and man up.

The door finally opened revealing a smiley man talking to us. For a minute I stopped hearing what he was saying because my ears just blocked but then Louise hit me with her elbow and I reacted.

"Yes Sir, Marco Reus, it's a pleasure to finally meet you." I said extending my hand. He smiled tenderly and grabbed my hand.

"Michel Laurent, the pleasure is all mine. Please get inside, Alice is on the kitchen." He said as we walked inside.

I didn't wanted to let go Louise's hand. Every time she tried to do it, I'd squeeze it more and more and she'd open her eyes widely and shook her head laughing.

"She's cooking tonight. I don't know if Louise mentioned you but my wife is an amazing chef." He said winking at me.

"She did mentioned Sir. I am sure she is." I said and she shook his head quickly.

"Stop, I am Michel for you or Mich, however you like it more." He said patting me.

"Yes Mr Michel, is nice." I said feeling my face reflecting the confusion about what just happened.

What the fuck? Why did I say that, what is wrong with me?

He smiled tenderly and led us to the kitchen.

"Mama." Louise said finally letting go of my hand. I walked quickly trying to grab it back but her dad was looking at me and it felt weird if I do it, so I let it go.

"Well who do we have here." Her mother said looking at me.

"Marco this is my mom, Alice and my dad who you already met on the door, Michel." Louise said smiling widely.

I swallowed hard and tried to put my best smile.

"It's a pleasure Mrs. Laurent." I said grabbing Louise mom's hand.

She smiled.

"Oh please, I am Ali." She said giving me two kisses on both cheeks.

What the fuck is happening!?

I felt Louise's hand squeezing mine and looking at me like saying "Just act cool".

"It smells amazing." I said.

"Oh merci my love. I am making risotto." She said returning to the kitchen, we followed her.

"Louise said that you liked Italian food?" She said mixing something in a casserole, I nodded.

"It is my favorite food." I said and she nodded.

"She told us, so I decided to make a Risotto, I hope it's okay." She said nicely.

Of course it's okay. I freaking love Risotto!

"I think it's perfect ma'am." I said and felt Louise's eyes on me. She was looking at me confused.

"Okay Marco so tell us a bit about you. Louise said that you are a football player?" Louise's dad asked me.

I nodded.

"I am. I play in the Bundesliga. My club is Borussia Dortmund. I also play for the German National team often." I said.

"Wine?" Louise asked me and I nodded.
