when we landed, everyone went crazy mode. it was 2.00, and we were all supposed to meet with ruel's extended family at 5.00pm, for dinner.

well, i wasn't going crazy mode. i was shitting my pants. my fingernails were practically non existent, i'd bitten them out of nerves. yes, it was just dinner and yes, it wasn't like i was going one on one with each family member, but the thought of it just gave me such a sick feeling.

i took sooooooooooooooo long to get ready. i needed to make sure my outfit was perfect. my makeup was perfect. my hair was PERFECT. 

suddenly a thought occurred to me. shit. his extended family was dutch. i did not speak FUCKING DUTCH. i glance at the clock, 4.02. i had 28 minutes til we had to leave, 28 minutes to learn dutch.

in a panic, i google "how to learn dutch" and start rapidly repeating dutch words over and over again. and over. i think i learnt maybe 60 words in the space of 60 seconds. the door opens behind me.

NEUKENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!, i yell surprised by ruel's entrance.

ruel - oh, wow okay

his eyebrows raise

ruel - isabel, may i ask what the neuken you are doing?

my face becomes hot, and red. 

isabel - i'm learning dutch, for your family. they speak dutch right? wait have i been learning the wrong language this whole time? oh my god. i suck. i'm such a failure. ruel i don't think i can come tonight. sorry. i don't want to embarrass you and -

he slides his arm over my shoulder and slaps his hand over my mouth

ruel - isabel, shut the fuck up.

i open my mouth to speak, but only a muffled sound can escape his hand

ruel - shhh. calm down. firstly, most of them speak english, i cant even speak dutch. you were learning the right language, since i clearly understood what you screamed when i came in. you  dont suck, and youre not a failure, its okay, we will stick together tonight and never would you ever embarrass me, because isabel hunt you are the best thing that has ever happened to me, truly.

nate peers through the door way

nate- lovebirdssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

we jolt our heads towards him

nate - its time to go diddumssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

we both roll our eyes, and walk out to the uber, still in eachothers embrace.
