Dangerously In Love

Meet The Parents

Flying down the expressway, Jack is making his way to Jackie's childhood home. After being released from the hospital Jackie temporarily moved in with her parents for her to finish recovering. Her parents insisted that she stay with them for recovery and most importantly safety purposes.

He hasn't physically seen Jackie since she was discharged from the hospital and misses her terribly. They talk a couple of times throughout the day over the phone, but it's not the same. Craving the feeling of her soft lips against his or holding her in his arms.

Still, they are working on getting back together. Jackie wasn't going to let him come back in that easy, even though she loves him. She made it clear that he is going to have to earn her trust again. With this visit, he hopes that it's a sign that they'll be getting back together soon.

Twenty minutes later Jack arrives in front of a large red-brick mansion, with vibrant green grass sprawling for miles out to the river that flows off in the distance. The scene in front of the house looked like to belong in a painting. The summer air blows gently causing the chimes on the porch to play their song. The sun was still making its way into the sky and shone brightly through the trees casting a pretty shadow along the house.

Once the car is parked Jack gets out grabbing his suitcase off the backseat of his car.

Just then the door to the house opens with Jackie stepping out onto the large wrap-around porch. She looks beautiful in her white sundress with a powder blue flower design. Her hair is cut short and is full of brown curls with a few blond highlights. Skin looks soft and luminous. She looks gorgeous.

"Hi," he says going up the steps.

"Hi," she replies shyly.

"You look beautiful. How are you?" he asks before kissing the back of her hand.

"Thank you, I'm fine," she replies.

"Good," he replies, " I have to admit, I'm a little nervous about meeting your parents."

"Why?" Jackie asks smiling.

"Because now we're not the hospital anymore and I'm on your father's turf, only God knows what he'll do to me."

"Oh my, the great Jack Kennedy afraid of my father," Jackie teases wrapping her arms around Jack's neck.

"If the circumstances were different I wouldn't feel like this," he replies bringing his lips close to hers.

She smiles and suddenly moves out of his embrace.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I think we should go inside before we get comfortable. Also, my parents aren't here at the moment so it's just me and you, along with my younger siblings."

"Where are they?" Jack asks confused.

"My father has a meeting with a client and my mother also has a meeting with her society friends, so they'll be returning shortly."

"Ok."

Jack follows Jackie inside so she can show him where he'll be staying. Once outside his room, he turns to Jackie.

"Where's your room?"

"Why?" she asks with a smirk.

"Because I was hoping that I could kiss you goodnight and I just want to know," he replies smiling.

Jackie giggles and shakes her head as she opens the door. Jack looks around the room noticing the antique furniture. The room is illuminated with rays of sunlight against the oak furniture.
