Only Ever You ** BIlly Hargrove ST Fanfic **

Chapter 30: Guess who's coming to Dinner

When I got home my father was waiting for me. Strange but not unexpected.

"Gene" He said shortly. "A boy called after school today- He said that its about time that he officially introduced himself to me. So I invited him to dinner."

My heart melted at the thought of Billy wanting to come over and surprise me. Wit hthat in mind I was a little annoyed that he didn't talk to me first. I would bring it up though when he came over. "When is he getting here?"

"Five"

I looked to the clock I had about an hour.

I jogged up the stairs and began to get ready. I put on my favorite red sweater and put my hair up in a high pony tail. I was debating how much make up to put on when the phone rang.

"Conte's" I said right before I began to put on chap stick.

"Hey Darlin" I smiled at the sound of Billy's voice. "You got plans later tonight?"

"That's a joke right?" I laughed as I began to put on my mascara- shouldn't you be on your way over here anyway?"

"Did we have plans?" He questioned.

"Oh god have you not left yet?" I stared at the clock. "Oh the food is going to get cold.... Maybe if we put the oven"

"Gene" Billy's voice was exhausted. "What are you talking about?"

I turned to the phone and sighed. "My dad said you called- that you were coming over."

"Gene I didn't call"

"Well then who?"

The doorbell ringing was the final confirmation that something was wrong. "Billy I have to go"

"Gene hold on-" I hung up and began to head down stairs slowly.

"Oh hello Dear" My mother voice crept up the stairwell. I realized very quickly that I fucked up bad.

"Hi Mrs. Conte" I saw a head of blonde hair behind my mother. I was fucked. Maybe I could just jump out a window.

"Genie" My father saw me and walked forward. "Why don't you introduce us to your friend."

I stared at him and then turned to Owen. He wore a smile like everything was fine. I opened my mouth and then closed. "Hey Sweetheart" He walked forward and leaned down to kiss me on the cheek. "I know where Gene gets her looks from now"

How do I even tell my father that this person terrified me? I knew I had to do it. "Gene are you okay?" My father pressed

"Sorry Mr. Conte... Genie doesn't now how to introduce me-"

"Oh I do" I raised a hand. "Dad I am sorry... this is about to be" I sighed. "Extremely awkward."

My father took a step closer to me. He watched me slowly. "This isn't my boyfriend, I don't know how to describe but it would not be positive in any light."

"Genie-"

"Let her finish" My father said.

"I have a boyfriend- but we just started and I was planning to tell you face to face."

"Do you want this young man in the house?" My father asked.

"No."

That was enough for my father. "Then you can leave." He turned to me. "Go upstairs Gene."

I nodded and headed upstairs.

"Wait sir" I heard Owen begin. "I need to tell you something"

"You can tell me on the side walk"
