It's Always Been (A Diggy Simmons fanfic)

Chapter 17: Happy Thanksgiving

   Unedited
Tia POV

"So here we are. Are  you ready?" Daniel asked touching my thigh snapping me out of my daze.

I didn't even realize that we got to his parents house already. I spent the whole ride quite, looking out the window of the car thinking.

I thought about his family's reaction to meeting me. Whether they'd like me or not? If they knew about Daniel and I? Or if they'd even approve of us being together?

"Um I guess. This is as ready as I'll ever be." I tried putting a small smile on my face to mask the anxiety I had about today.

"Good. Look there's no need to be nervous I'm sure they'll love you." With that being said I pushed all the anxiety I had away and smiled widely.

"Here let me get that." He hopped out of his side to open the car door for me. I held his hand and got out so he could shut my door.

"Thank you." I pecked his cheek.

"Your welcome babe."

He held my hand into his as we made our way up the cobblestone pathway. As we made our way to the large French front doors it swung open to reveal a medium build lady with cocoa skin and mocha brown eyes. She had shoulder leght hair and a gorgeous smile.

"Hey ma'." Daniel said hugging who I now knew was his mother.

"Hey baby." She looked over at me. "And I bet this is the Tia I've been hearing so much about." I smiled.

"Hi Mrs. Simmons I'm Tia Daniel's f-."

"Oh there's no need for an explaination or an introduction I already heard so much about you." I blushed looking over at Daniel. "C'mon inside." She gestured to us.

"Your home is very beautiful Mrs. Simmons." I complimented as I stepped further into her nice, warm, spacious and beautifully decorated and furnished house.

"Aww thank you Daniel why don't you be a gentleman and go on ahead and give Tia a tour of the house while I get finished with dinner."

"Ok. Come on Tee." I followed Daniel's lead as he showed me around the place. There were eight bed rooms and six bathrooms, a cinema, an office for Daniel's Dad who I'm yet to meet and a gym that also housed a basketball court, an indoor pool and spa.

"Yeah that's basically it." Daniel said as we finished off the tour.

"Wow it's really nice here."

"Yeah it is but now back to my favorite room in the house.

"What's that?" I asked curiously.

"My room." He replied gaining a chuckle from me.

"Sooo?" He asked plopping on his bed.

"Sooo?" I replied in the same tone.

"You don't have anything to say about my room?"

"Its clean." I joked. " hahaha. Its really nice though its huge." I laughed.

"So what you think of my mom so far."

"She's really, really sweet Daniel and beautiful too."

"I know you should have known she was beautiful like just look at me." I rolled my eyes. "But I told you that you didn't have anything to worry about."
