Teagan

i sat in front of my vanity mirror, getting ready for tonight. tonight is the night i meet my mom's boyfriend, and the night she meets mines.

we're having dinner at some fancy place downtown.

i can't wait to meet kent, from what my mom tells me; he's an amazing guy and makes her happy. but mostly, i can't wait for my mom to meet matthew. i know she's going to love him.

i finished curling my hair and put on some make up, than standing up and slipping on a maroon dress with tan heels.

i looked in the mirror and put on some lipgloss, before grabbing my phone and texting matt.

to: my b💍yfriend🤞🏽❤️
still picking me up, espinosa?

i grabbed my purse and sprayed some perfume on, before hearing my doorbell go off and my phone buzz at the same time.

my eye brows furrowed and i walked down stairs, sliding my purse on my shoulder, and opening the text.

from: my b💍yfriend🤞🏽❤️
already here, matthews.

i smiled and opened the door, revealing matt in a button downed shirt and jeans. he was grinning and holding a bouquet of white roses.

my favorite.

"aww, matty." i smiled and wrapped my arms around his neck, hugging. even with my heels, he was still tall as hell.

he pulled away and handed me the flowers "for you, mah lady." i smiled.

"i'll be right back, ima go put them in water." i walked in the kitchen and slipped the flowers into a glass vase and put water in the vase, smiling.

i walked back over to matt and smiled. "you ready, matthews?" he asked, linking arms with me.

"i surely am, espinosa." i flashed him a toothless smiles and shut my door, walking to his car and getting in.

matt started up his car and began driving to my restaurant, with one hand on the wheel and the other resting on my thigh, with my hand resting over his.

the whole ride there was silent, but not an awkward silence; a comfortable silence.

we pulled up to the restaurant and parked. i unbuckled my seat belt, as matt came around and opened the door for me. "my lady." he smiled and held his hand out for me.

i giggled lightly and smiled at the gesture, taking his hand. "thank you, kind sir." i got out the vehicle and fixed my hair as matt shut the door and locked it.

matt held onto my hand tight as we walked in, and up to the booth. "reservations for calise reign?" i asked, telling the man my mothers name. he nodded.

"ah yes, right this way." the man spoke in a very posh way and guided us to where my my mother was, along with a man. who i assumed to be kent.

i thanked the man and sat directly in front of my mom, as matthew sat in front of kent. "hello." i smiled lightly.

my mother smiled, "hey dear! this is kent andrew, my boyfriend." her eyes twinkled as she mentioned his name.

i smiled "hi! my name's teagan, its a pleasure to meet you mr. andrew." i shook his hand.

"oh, please. call me kent darlin'." he said, causing me to grin. "i've heard so much about you, all good things!" he gave me a reassuring smile.

i smiles back and looked at matt, than to my mom. "mom? kent? this is matthew, my boyfriend."

matthew smiled and shook kent & my moms hand. "it's amazing to meet the person whose created such an amazing human being." matt looked at me, causing me to look down blushing. "i see where teagan gets her looks, you truly are stunning ms. reign."

and i know, that in that moment my mom loved matthew. she smiled widely "awe thank you honey! you're so sweet." she smiled. "so, how did you and teagan meet!" she asked, becoming more interested in matthew.

"actually," he looked at me smiling. "it's quite funny."

flashback to freshman year

i was walking through the hallways, hurrying to my next class, with all of my books in my hand; not having time to put them into my bag.

i was turning down another hall way, when i came crashing into someone. knocking my self, and my books down.

great.

"you should watch where you're going ass-." i looked up to deep blue eyes looking down at me.

i pushed my glasses up. "are you okay?" he asked, panicking while picking up my books. "should i take you to the nurse?" he asked, holding his hand out to help me up.

(cliche? oh whale:) )

i took his hand, getting up, "n-no.. i'm okay." i continued to hold his hand. i realized that we were still holds hands and took my hand back. "thank you for helping me up."

he handed me my books and flashed me a smile. "anytime. are you sure you're fine?"

i nodded "i'm good. thank you."
he nodded. "okay.. again, i'm sorry. see you around." he smiled, once again and walked off.

flashback over

i smiles as matt told the story of us meeting. he remembered. he remembered the first time we met.

"who knew? me being late to my class, could turn out to me meeting the girl of my dreams." he looked at me, with basic heart eyes. my cheeks heated up.

"awww, tee." my mom smiled, along with kent. "he's a keeper." she winked.

kent nodded, agreeing. "if i had a daughter, i'd definitely want her to he with a guy like you matthew." he smiled at matt.

matt smiled back and grabbed my hand, under the table.

i looked at my mom and kent smiling at each other, than back at matthew.

i could get use to being this happy.

we were on the way back to my house. i was laying against matt's shoulder while he was driving, one hand on the steering wheel and the other holding my hand.

"tonight was great." i said, yawning. "i haven't had a actual conversation with my mom in a while, and my mom loves you!" i smiled.

we stopped at a red light. he smiled down at me. "good. because you make me so happy." he kissed my forehead lightly as the light turned green, and we drove off.

soon, we pulled up to my house. we both got out the car and walked inside. i slipped off my heels and yawned. it's saturday, so we have tomorrow, than we go back to school.

"wanna make brownies?" i asked matt, walking into the kitchen.

he smiled and nodded "sounds good to me!" he walked over after taking his shoes off.

"i'll be right back!" i ran to my room and quickly changed into pj'a and took my make up off, than put my hair in a bun and ran out. "like my puppy pajama's?" i posed.

he laughed lightly and pulled me over, kissing me. i kissed back, smiling. he pulled back "i love em." i smiled back at him as we began making brownies.

wow, this kid makes me happy.
