"So he's your boyfriend now?" Caden exclaims

"Yeah...."

"When do we get to meet him?" Steph asked

"Well my mom wants to have a dinner on Friday, you're all invited. You guys are family so," I lightly smile

"Aw! Autumn" They hug me

"Alright, alright" I laugh as we break up the hug

"So is this boy nice to you?" James gets a little protective

"Yes he is"

"Is he tall? Is he a football player? What does he do?"

"Oh my god! Enough with them bombarding! You'll meet him Friday!" I say

"Fine" James sighs

Welp this week has passed by too fast, it's Friday

"Are you excited for tonight?" Grace asks as we walk to the bus

"Yeah kinda, I'm a little scared"

"Why?" She looked worried

"What if tonight scares him off? What if my sleeve rides up and he sees how hideous I am? What if-"

"Autumn! It will be okay, if he leaves it's okay he didn't deserve you. You're an amazing girl, any guy would be lucky to have you." She assures me

"I'm just worried, that's all" I sigh

"It's okay. I'll be there, we'll all be there" She smiles

I get home to see my mom in the kitchen

"Hi sweetheart, how was your day?" She kissed my cheek when I entered the kitchen

"It was good, what are you doing home so early?" I asked

"To make dinner of course, are you excited?" She cheered

"Yeah I'm just a little nervous" I said

"Oh honey, it'll be okay" She brushes the hair out of my face

"I know, I don't know why i'm so nervous. I'm sure i'll get over it" I sighed

"Just breathe, everything will be fine" She hugs me

"Okay mom, do you need any help?" I asked

"Yes please, can you stir the pasta that's on the stove?" She said

I did as I was told and helped with the food, Olivia soon got home and started to help out after she had a snack.

"I told Audrey to join us for dinner but I doubt she'll show" My mom sighed

"Hey, don't worry about it" I said

"I know, I just wish she was here for this dinner"

"Just don't count on it" I said

We continued cooking until she told us to go get dressed,

"Can you help me pick out something?" Olivia asked

"Of course" I smiled

I looked through her closet and picked out a few outfits for her to choose from

"I like this one" She pointed to the one where it was a cute shirt with a deer on it and some leggings to go with it

"My turn for you!" She cheered

I was a bit worried on what she would pick, she laid out the shirts first which all happened to be long-sleeves along with some jeans and leggings.
