Chapter 1
Meet my family

"I want you to meet my family tomorrow." My boyfriend, Jake Maslow, said to me. I've been with Jake for 2 years now and I have never met his family and he just randomly comes out with this while we're watching a movie about aliens.
"Really?" I asked, excited. I've been wanting to meet them for a while now but he never wanted to introduce me to them.
"Yeah. Tomorrows my brothers birthday and my whole family will be there so it will be a good time for you to meet them." He said with a smile.
"You never told me you had a brother." I said as I rested my head on his shoulder.
"I didn't? Oh well I do."
"Obviously or it would be his birthday tomorrow." I joked and he laughed softly.
"His names James. You'll probably like him, you guys have a lot in common." He said as he took some popcorn out of the bowl on my lap.
"I cant wait." I said as I kissed his cheek.

...

I was up early the next day. I couldn't wait to meet the people who raised Jake and made him the man he was.
I quickly showered and got dressed into something cute and appropriate ( http://www.polyvore.com/m/set?.embedder=8691016&.svc=copypaste&id=110679177 ) for a 21 years olds birthday party, but Jake told me it was more like a barbecue. I felt kinda weird that I was the same age as Jake's younger brother. Jake was older than us by 4 years, so it felt a little weird at first.
I waited in the living room for a while until Jake finally showed up and we went to his family's house.
"You okay?" Jake asked as we was driving along.
"Im a little nervous." I admitted.
"Dont be. They'll love you. And if they dont, then their gonna have to deal with it." He said as he pulled up in front of a big house. "Here we are." He got out the car and so did I. There were a bunch of cars already here. "Figures: Everyone shows up early and makes me look late." He said as he took my hand.
As we walked through the front door, I heard muffled music and faint talking and no one was in sight. Everyone must of been in the back yard.
When we walked through the back door, the people closest looked up at us with friendly smiles.

***James POV***

I was playing football with Kendall, Logan, Carlos, Dustin and a few of my cousins and I spaced out when I saw Jake walk in with a girl I've never seen before.
She was gorgeous, everything about here. Even from all the way here, I noticed how perfectly blue her eyes were. The sun bounced off of her dirty blonde hair and made everything seemed brighter and her smile was so warm and welcoming. Who was this girl?
I snapped out of my thoughts when I felt a ball hit me in the gut and I fell to the ground.
"Oh my god, are you okay?!" Kendall said as he came running over to me with Dustin, Carlos and Logan right behind him.
"Im fine." I groaned as they helped me stand up. I looked up at the girl, hoping she didn't see me and she didn't. She was too busy talking to my mom.
"What had you so distracted?" Logan asked.
"I wasn't distracted." I said, looking back at them.
"Sure you weren't." Logan said with a soft chuckle to his voice.

***Daniella's POV***

"Come meet James." Jake said as he held my hand and pulled me over to the direction of the bunch of boys playing football. "James." Jake called out and the boys stopped what they were doing and looked over at us.
Then I saw him. I didn't know who he was but he was gorgeous.
His shyly ran his fingers through his light brown hair and his hazel eyes sparkled in the sunlight. His big smile was warm and welcoming.
"Daniella, this is James." Jake said, gesturing to the gorgeous boy. I looked at him a little shocked. They looked nothing alike. Jake was blonde and had green eyes. "James, this is my girlfriend Daniella."
I saw a look of disappointment on his face and then he forced a smile.
"Nice to meet you." James smiled and held out his hand.
I slid my hand into his and said, "You too." With a small smile.
"So this is the girl you've been telling me about?" James said to Jake.
"She is."Jake said and wrapped his arms around my stomach from behind and pulled me close. "Isn't she something?"
"She's really something." James said with a small smile and looked me in the eyes.
I loved his eyes.
