After me and Bruno having our little moment I remembered something. My dad wanted to meet Bruno.
"Do you want to meet my Dad now?" I lifted my head off his shoulder and he smiled.
"I would love to."
So I drove home in my parents car with Bruno following behind in his RV(which I had no idea how he was still running because he didn't have a job)
We parked up and entered my house.
"Mom, Dad," I called. "I've got someone for you to meet."
We both went into the lounge and my parents were sitting on the couch watching some random TV drama. They both whirled their heads around to us and their eyes popped when they saw Bruno.
"Who is this handsome fellow?!" My Mom jumped off the couch and approached Bruno. She got right into his face and pinched his cheeks slightly.
"Mom."
Bruno chuckled, "hi ma'am. I'm Bruno."
He held out his hand and my Mom shook it. Then she looked at me and gave me a thumbs up. I felt like locking myself in a dark cupboard. She was so embarrassing.
"I'm not ma'am just call me Carol, sweetie."
"Mic come and meet this charming boy. You said you wanted to!" Mom called over to Dad.
He struggled to get up off to couch but he managed it. He came over to us and shook Bruno's hand sternly.
All he said was a simple "hello" but that was all you'll ever get from my Dad. Then unexpectedly he smiled.
"I have made tacos! Who wants some?" My Mom exclaimed excitedly.
Me and Bruno glanced at one another quickly.
We had just eaten at pinkberry but we still nodded and chuckled.
As my parents were in the kitchen preparing food, me and Bruno sat close to one another on the couch.
He put his hand close next to my leg, which I assumed was an indication that it was ok to hold it. So I did.
My heart was beating so fast as he slipped his fingers between mine. I just smiled whilst staring at the TV.
He kept rubbing his thumb across the top of my hand and it made me jump when my parents entered back into the lounge.
Each of them were holding two large plates filled with tacos and sour cream sauce and salad.
Our hands separated as we had to eat.
But they would always find their way back to each other.
We all ended up having a great night. Eating tacos, making jokes, and watching really pathetic comedy episodes and laughing at how unfunny they were.
I was upset when sadly Bruno had to get back to University.
"Well I have classes in the morning so.. I better go now."
Both my parents got up to say goodbye and Bruno thanked them for the tacos and a great night.
"I hope to see you guys again real soon."
Me and Bruno left the lounge and I walked with him all the way to his car.
"I really had fun tonight." He said towering over me. His brown eyes literally shone in the dark night.
"Me too."
In that moment I felt so happy that I could scream.
I just smiled up at Bruno until he leant down and kissed me.
I never wanted it to end. I wanted his warm lips to continue moving against mine forever. But he had to go so we parted and I went back into the house without saying anything else.
I shut the door behind me with a warm fluttering feeling inside of me.
