The Meeting Part One

The couple was nervous. It was Thanksgiving, and they are getting their families together. Marie's parents, her older brother, Mitchell's parents, his older sister, and younger twin brother and sister. Mitchell's parents were quite.... erm, troubling to him. They have hurt him with words. Marie was worried about that. Marie's parents own a worldwide business, and Marie's brother was always busy with his friends or such. Marie basically raised herself. 
  While they were driving to the house were they are meeting, they held hands. 
  "It'll be okay..." Marie kept telling herself, outloud even. 
  She was most nervous. What if Mitchell gets hurt again? What if they don't like her? How will her parents and brother act? They haven't seen her in forever. 
   "Babe, it'll be okay. They'll love you." said Mitchell, smiling.
   Whenever he says babe, Marie blushes. She turned really red. She turned her ring on her finger. 
   "I'll try not to be nervous." Marie said, lightening up. 
     They finally arrive, and walk to the house. It is a small house; but it's very pretty.  

  Marie is wearing a yellow dress, a light grey cardigan, and some dress shoes. Mitchell was wearing a button down, pants, and his regular converse. Before they walk in, Mitchell holds her hands into his.
  "My parents can be... difficult. So if they say something mean, don't take it personally, okay love?" said Mitchell, looking into her eyes.
  "Same with mine. They are just strict. " She gave him a smile, squeezed his hand, and they walked into the house.
