Do you believe in love at first sight?
Hadley is just a woman. A woman living her dream. She has her best friend beside her and a career for which she'd always hoped. She wasn't looking for love, but isn't that always when you find it?
Ryker is just...
The next three weeks flew by quickly. I saw Ryker almost every night for dinner. It was usually quick but it was always worth it. My green eyed guy is amazing. Even when we were both busy we were constantly texting. Our relationship is going strong.
Today is Thanksgiving. Today Ryker is meeting my family and I am meeting his. My family always celebrates holidays pretty early in the day and his usually celebrates later, which is actually perfect because we can do both!
I woke up around 9:30 because we had to get ready and be at my parents place by 11. Ryker was supposed to pick me up from my house at about 1030. I hopped up out of bed and ran and took a shower. I then brushed my teeth and blow dried my hair. I decided to quickly throw in a couple curls to give my hair a little bit of a texture and then I threw on a little make up. I put on a light foundation followed by a setting powder, a little bit of a bronzer, some blush and then I did a light nude eyeshadow and some mascara and then topped it all off with a nude pink lipstick. After I was done with my make up I went to my closet to get dressed. I picked out a nice maroon colored skater dress a pair of light black tights and then I threw on a gray cardigan and a silver necklace. I finished my look with a pair of Gray ankle booties. By the time I was done getting ready Ryker had shown up and we were on our way to my parents house.
We made light small talk in the car on the way to my mom and dad's house. When we pulled up he seemed a little nervous so I took his hand really quick and squeezed it in a reassuring manner.
"Don't be nervous. They'll love you." I place a gentle kiss on his cheek. My parents have always been pretty easy going. Sure they are protective but once they get to know Ryker I have no doubt in my mind they will love him. The way he treats me will surely be impressive to my parents. I can't wait to show him off.
We get out of the car and walk to the door and walk in since it's the house I grew up in so why would I knock. "Honey I'm home!!" I yell. Laughing. This was something I always did when growing up. My mom ran up and hugged me followed by my dad. I felt a squeeze on my hand and remembered I brought a guest. "Right! Mom, daddy, this is Ryker. My incredible boyfriend." I say looking at him with a smile.
"It's so nice to meet you Mr. and Mrs. Davis." He said extending his hand for them to shake. Dad grabbed his hand, but mom spoke first

"Please, call me Vanessa." She said with a smile and shaking his hand when dad was done.
"And you can call me Bruce." Dad told him. "Welcome to our home. Make yourself comfortable I have to check on the turkey."
We sat with mom in the living room. Him and I on the loveseat and mom in the recliner.
"So, Ryker how did you and my Rose meet?" He looked confused.
"I probably should have told you my middle name." I said laughing at the awkward situation. I stuck out my hand to him in a joking manner "Hi! I'm Hadley Rose Davis. My mom and dad like to call me Rose."
