"Havana, ooh na-na
Half of my heart is in Havana,
He took me back to East Atlanta,Oh, but my heart is in Havana,There's somethin' 'bout his manners,Havana,He didn't walk up with that how you doin,He said there's a lot of girls I can do with,I'm doin' forever in a minute,And papa says he got malo in him"

Today was the day,that I was actually regretting of waking up to.It,is the day of Jack's family dinner and like I said before I really,really did not want to go.

Finally getting out of the bed I head to my closet to find something,formal and casual for a family dinner and who knew it would be harder than expected.But after an hour of throwing my clothes all over the room I finally found a dress and it was perfect!

It was a burgundy,spaghetti strapped,that stopped just below my knees and the back of the dress showed no part of my back......which I was thankful for and I paired the dress with a pair of black 2inch heels.And now I was just waiting on my boss,I gave him the address for the hotel,when I called him from my hotel room,and he said he should be here in about 15 mins or so.

And that was about 40 mins ago and men say women take forever.....yeah right.....and just right after that thought I hear a knock at my room door and the man of the hour finally showed up.

"Finally" I mumbled to myself

"What was that?" He asked curiously

And I just shook my head.

"Can I just say that you're looking very lovely tonight" and I see his cheeks turned a light shade of pink

"Thank you" I say back with a small smile gracing my face

He shakes his head in acknowledgment and with that he offers his arm to me and leads the way out of the room and to the elevator.

Making our way to the car,he opens the door for me and lets me slide in first and then he climbs in beside me. And his driver starts the car and we're on our way to this dreaded family dinner.

"So.....what should I expect when we get there?" I ask

"Nothing,much,my family is very large and like to talk a lot and there are some family members that I will most definitely make sure that you stay away from" I just look at him wondering what he meant by that

"And why is that?"

"Because I said so and that's all that matters"

Asshole!

"Why are you so angry for?I was just asking a question"

He doesn't say anything to for the rest of the ride,he just looks out the window,staring off into his own little world.Pulling up to the house I feel butterflies in my stomach starting to make my anxiety be known.And I kept for my hands to start to feel sweaty and my throat to close up.....I can't do this.......why did I agree to this?

"Showtime" Jack says

His driver comes around and opens the door for us and Jack gets out and he holds his hand out for me and I take it and climb out the car.Putting on my best "Smile" I watch as Jack knocks on the door of his parents home or should I say mansion.

And when the door opens,a beautiful women in her late fifties opens the door and I could tell that she is Jack's mom from the way her eyes has a sparkle to them when the light hits them and the facial resemblance also.

"I thought that your weren't going to come! Oh my baby" she cries and when she gives him a big hug she finally sees me over his shoulder

"And who night this beautiful young lady be?" She moves away from him and comes to stand in front of me

"Mother.......this is my girlfriend Marie Jackson" What the hell did he just say?

"Oh!I am so happy,come we have to introduce her to the family,and dear my name is Alexandria.....I can already tell that I am going to love you"grabbing my arm his mother walks me into the house with Jack following behind us

Turning slightly around without his mother noticing I flip him off and I get a chuckle in return.Smug bastard.
