Keeping Up with the Jones's

Ant: Scoot over

Rj: I am Over

Ant: this isnt working , maybe i should just shower after you .

Rj: Boo Calm down , your just nervous thats all , Now let me get your back so we can finish

Ant: Ughh whatever

After a Failed attempt at showering in a small shower Rj and I got out to dry off , as i was putting on my clothes the Fear started to sweep across me , Rj was right i was nervous as hell , The Word of his friends Started churning in my head . What if they didnt like me , what if they Flip out over Rj bringing his boyfriend into their Strong Christian Foundation Home .

Rj: You thinking about again arent you

Ant: I was thinking Maybe you shouldnt Introduce me as your boyfriend .

Rj: Come On Ant Weve Been Over this already , Its Ok Youll Be Fine just be yourself and leave everything else to me *kisses him on the forehead*

Ant: Ok Its Yo Call

Rj: Now Finish Getting Dressed , First Impressions Last Forever With These people .

After Putting On One Of My Best Outfits , The Door to the room Opened , and it was like the Walls of a damn Breaking , Nervous, Excitement , Fear , and Panic , Flooded My Body , The smell Of Beakfast Quickly filled my nose and Headed straight to my stomache Making Me realize How starved i was , With Each step Down the Stairs my Heart sunk a little , When We Finally reached the End of the Staircase , My Forehead and Nose Was covered in sweat , Rj turned around and Laughed at me and whipped My face with the palm of his hands , He grabbed my hand , and All the Fear and Nervousness of Meeting his family went away at that moment I felt protected i felt like Nothing Matterd as long as Rj's and I hands were Connected and even if he didnt say it at that moment I knew He Loved Me . We Turned the Corner and Everyones heads turned towards us . A little Boys Face Lite Up with excitement he pushed out of his chair and Litteraly Ran Into Rj's Arms , Then A Young girl Who looked about 16 Ran Over and Joined the Hugg , After They Finish their embrace , Rj walked over to a young boy who looked maybe 18 at the most and Gave him a nookie , the Boy responded with an annoyed look , Rj then went over to his Mother and She stood and Gave him a big hug tears begin to fall from both of their faces , He Moved on to This Big sturn Looking Guy who look like he had a no tollerance for Nonsense , The Man stood up and Shook Rj's hand and pulled him into a Hug . I just stood there still at the Door way of the kitchen looking confused and a little nervous , All eyes where on Me ,

Rj: Oh I almost forgot that fast . Everyone this Is Anthony

Anthony: Hi

They all Looked at me Like they Could Careless , We sat down at the table , Rj introduced me to His Father Danny Jones , His Mother Patricia Jones , And his younger Brother Aaron and Danny Jr , and his Only sister Meagan . While sitting at the table the family looked so happy to see Their son and Brother , They talked about everything , to be honest i felt like an outcast they all had conversations and it almost felt like they were purposly excluding me . I just sat there and pushed my food around on my plate .

Patricia: So do you play basketball too

Ant: No Man , Im actually in the Band

Danny: Since When Does the band Hang with The basketball team ?

Meagan: Dad !

Patricia: Oh thats intresting what do you Play

Ant: The Trombone .

Danny: SO how Did you and Rj Meet ?

Rj: Well We Actually ......

Ant: He was assigned as my Math Tutor
