I smiled as Mat intertwined our hands while we walked into the bar. I had a feeling that he would get a little bit jealous because that's how he is, but that didn't bother me.
I instantly headed over to the bar and ordered drinks for both Mat and I. He had practice tomorrow so he wasn't going to have more than 3 drinks.
We went back to our vip section and everyone was out and about, doing their own thing, so Mat sat down on a couch and I sat on the arm rest of it, having a little bit of height over him.
"So when's this thanksgiving party that you're having with your family?" He asked, wrapping his arm around my waist and bringing me closer.
"Well, it's after practice for you on Thursday." I said, placing my hand on his bicep and running patterns into it.
His eyes widened, "I have two days to prepare myself to meet all of your family? I'm gonna die." He said dramatically, placing his head on my arm with a sigh.
"You're so dramatic." I said, rolling my eyes.
"You're so beautiful." He said right away, giving me an award winning grin. I instantly couldn't stop myself from letting a smile take over my face again for the millionth time today.
"I love you." I said, bringing my face closer to his, testing out those words that were almost said for the first time.
"Love you more." He said with a grin, placing his lips on mine. The kiss slowly deepened and I heard a fake throw up sound.
Aaron, Nikki, and Sof has made their way back to our section and we're rolling their eyes over the fact that we were making out.
"Now they're in the honeymoon phase because they said I love you." Sof said sarcastically, making Aaron laugh.
"Leave the kids alone." Nikki said with a laugh, "theyre young and in love. It reminds me of my husband and I. Before you guys know it, you'll be having a baby, then one turns into 2." She said.
Mat choked on his drink making me laugh, "No kids any time soon." I said reassuringly.

The rest of the night progressed into something stressful so we decided to call it a night. Paparazzi started figuring out that I was there and it got hectic so we left.
We all met back up at my house so I could say bye to Aaron, Ethan, Nikki, and Tiff. They promised that they would come visit soon and then they made me promise that I would return back to LA soon.
Sofia had to leave as well since she had a photo shoot or something like that tomorrow morning.
Mat and I were just relaxing in my basement as I was slowly falling asleep to his breathing.
"You should come with us to morning practice tomorrow, give us a little bit of confidence and a good speech before the game. The guys miss you now that you've been busier with being famous and stuff." Mat said, fiddling with a loose strand of my hair that fell out of my messy bun.
I nodded with a yawn, "I will. Can you wake me up tomorrow morning an hour before we leave so I can shower and stuff?"
"Of course." He said softly, placing a kiss on my head.
——The next morning I woke up to Mat tapping my shoulder, "Morning sleepy." He said with a chuckle and I groaned.
"I'm calling an Uber for me now, but I'll be back in like an hour." He said, getting up and heading to the bathroom.
