A few weeks passed and nothing happened. That is until my mom invited everyone to dinner. And when I say everyone, I mean everyone. Me and my brothers of course, Larisa, Shy and Trevor and finally, Noah and his beloved boyfriend Ian. I didn't hate Ian, he was actually a really nice guy, but god did I ever wish I could hate him.

Shy was currently sitting on my floor ranting about tonight's plan, she called it.

"Step three, get mama in on the plan" Shy said fir the thirtieth time tonight.

"I know that Shy" I sighed as I combed through my hair

"Ugh, I'm just so excited" I rolled my eyes at her

"Can you get out so I can change please?"

"Fine, But you're not wearing whatever you were planning on wearing, Trev and I decided to get you a new shirt, it's really nice and in my bag over there" Shy gestured to her bag in the corner in my desk chair then left the room

I grabbed the bag and pulled out a red shirt that would show a lot of my chest, it had a few strings keeping it from becoming just one long piece of fabric with arm holes and it was definitely a woman's shirt. I slipped it on anyways and finished getting dressed in some pants, my usual hat and some jewelry. I ran down the stairs to meet Shy and bumped into Noah.

"Sorry" I said and went to move around him but he grabbed my arm, I looked at him with a confused angry look

"I miss you" he whispered and I scoffed, another thing that the matchmakers told me to do.

"You've got Ian, now let go of my arm" I demanded fir he was still holding my wrist.

Noah let go and let me walk away, I sat down next to Shy who was next to Trevor. I turned to thing one and thing two and poked thing one (Shy).

"What?" She says, slightly annoyed but when she turned to me her mouth dropped.

"I knew that would look great on you! He's going to be drooling over you all night" Shy squealed making both Trevor and I move away from her slightly.

"Thanks, has Larisa showed up yet?" I changed the subject, not wanting to talk about anything Noah, or plan related right now, I don't even know why I agreed to this in the first place.

"Yep, we were just waiting fir you to come down"

After that, we all left the house and gathered into two cars, Sebastian, Larisa, Noah and Ian in Seb's car. Shy, Trevor, Remington and me in Trevor's car. We showed up at moms house after stopping to get her flowers. We went up to the door and let ourselves in, after hearing music playing from the kitchen we all filtered through the house and gathered there where we found our mother dancing to The Beatles while cooking, well, Rem's, Seb's and I's Mother.

"Hey mom" Remington smiled making mom open her eyes and look at us

"You're all here! Oh, I've missed you boys, I wished to have dinner sooner but things got busy, I'm glad you're all here now though. Shy, darling, who's this? Oh and Noah, who is that lovely boy attached to your arm?"

I laughed lightly at moms words and shifted the flowers to my other ya d, that's when she noticed them.

"Oh Emerson, how did I ever end up with such a perfect boy? You're such a gentleman" mom said and hugged me after I handed her the flowers.

Mom gave hugs all around, including to Ian and Trevor when she was introduced to them, and that's when the dreaded question came up.

"So Emerson, no boyfriend or girlfriend at all?" Mom asked as we all now sat on the back patio, I sighed.
