Just a little note, this update will be quite long so I could fit the rest of the events of Mel's birthday in one. Then Pike have a bigger section :)
Mel's P.O.V
I'm so excited to be going home to see my family! Most of them have met Ben and really like him but there's a few that haven't, so I'm excited to introduce him too.
I slip on some skinny high waisted jeans with a plain long sleeve white top. I finish packing all my stuff, then put a choker from George on tie the white bandanna from Em and Dan around my head. And brush my hair through so it falls around my shoulders.
"Are you almost ready? I don't want to be late." Ben asks as he walks into the room.
"Ben I'm late for everything so don't worry. But yeah I am I just need to put my converses on."
I slip my converses on and pick up my bags. I look around the room checking I have got everything because I know I won't be back here for a little while.
Ben takes one of my bags and then my hand.
"Come on then princess."
We walk to the lounge where everyone's sitting in. I give everyone a hug and give George a kiss on the cheek.
"Thankyou for everything guys. I love you all so much, I'm going to miss yous!"
They all laugh at me but say they love me too. I hold Ben's hand again and we go down to his car, heading for my mums house.
*******
"Mum we're here." I call through the house.
"In here babe." She shouts from the lounge.
The dogs run up to us so I pick our puppy up and Ben strokes the older one.
"Let's just put your bags here for now." Ben places them by the stairs.
We walk through to my mum to see all my family sitting in the room too.
"Happy birthday!"
"Aww! Hey everyone!"
"Mel!!!!" My nephew runs up to me giving me a huge hug.
"Aw monkey! I've missed you so much!" I pick him up and hug him tightly.
"Alright fella?" Ben smiles.
"Ben!" Charlie reaches out to him.
"So whose this handsome young lad then?" My auntie raises her eyebrows at me.
"Oh yeah sorry! This is Ben, my boyfriend."
"The one from the band?" Nan asks.
"Yep." I smile.
I feel Ben entwine his fingers with mine as he moves closer to me.
"I knew you would get with a singer!" My auntie says as everyone laughs.
"Ben that's my auntie, my nan, uncle and cousin. I think you know everyone else.." I point them all out.
"Hello everyone." He shyly smiles.
I watch him as he goes over to everyone and greets them. I find him so adorable. I realise I'm staring with a smile on my face. I look over to my oldest sister and see her already watching me. I walk over to her.
"You really are in love aren't you?"
My cheeks flush pink but I nod slowly.
"He's nice, we like him. And mum was singing his praises to everyone earlier."
