Capturing the leader's heart (an Eric/OC)

The dinner party

I wave to Erico and everybody else before heading back home.

"Mum, dad, I hope you're excited for some company as we are having a music night tonight 8 o'clock, I couldn't resist it, also Erico and his family will be here for dinner" I yell out, mum sticks her head out the entrance and replies cheerily with a smile " sure sweetie, I'll get some refreshments ready for then, please let your father and brother know so that they can set up this stage and band", I knew that she is brimming with happiness, my mother loves all music.

I jog up the stairs and inform dad, my brother Sam, his fiancée Nadia, my younger sister Ariel, and my great grandparents(who are my dad's grandparents whose daughter which is dad's mum transferred to erudite where she met dad's dad, then he transferred back to amity, why?, I don't know and as for my mums parents they're still in dauntless as far as I'm concerned)who reply cheerily and excited for tonight, I glad I live here, I don't think I would trade this for anything else.

Soon enough 6 o'clock is here and Erico and his family are at the entrance, his younger brother and his mum carrying dishes of food, and he and his dad instruments, you see when we have a music night or concert, Erico, his dad, my dad and Sam, as well as guests make up the band and whoever wishes it sing a song need only let them know what sing and your wish is their command.

Even though we are a faction of peace, we can play a genre of songs as long as it isn't death metal, or in any lyrics which will doesn't fit with the manifesto, which the crowd will let know of course.

I come back down the stairs to greet Erico, his mum Aphrodite (named after the goddess of love), his dad Godfry (which means gods peace) which is similar to Erico (which is peaceful ruler), and his younger brother is named Felipe (which is translated for "loves horses"), both Felipe and Godfrey have the same black hair, tan skin, mischievous eyes whereas Erico and Aphrodite have blonde hair, somewhat not tan nor pale skin,and light green eyes.

"Hello Erico, Felipe, hello Godfrey and Aphrodite, how are you on this fine night?" I welcome them all with a hug, Felipe especially hugs a little harder but that's because I think he likes to dish them out. " Good evening Aurelia, we are happy this night, we thank Diana and Hugh for inviting us as we bring gifts of our own even though I know that Diana will not be happy I couldn't resist" Aphrodite giggles with a sheepish look as Godfrey wraps an arm around her shoulders.

"I'm sure that because tonight is a night for happiness that mum will accept your gift as we will have people come tonight for some music" I assure her, it's no secret that my mum feels a little bit ashamed when people bring dishes even though she doesn't ask, I don't know why though.

"Aurelia, have the Alucidos arrived?" Mum asks as she steps through the entrance, she smiles when she sees them and squeals when she sees Aphrodite before running over to hug her, "It's so good to see you Aphrodite, I feel it has been too long, and why are you carrying dishes?" My mother exclaims in mock horror, I roll my eyes, " it always feels so long because time always flies, but I'm happy to see you again as well Diana, and the dishes I have brought are gifts, and job I won't take no for an answer, you always cook and it's a pleasure for me to thank you in some way, I have brought both dinner rolls and banana bread as well as minestrone soup and bacon and cheese puffs" she says proudly.

Even though we amity are about peace and not causing harm to others, some of us do have issues with not having a balanced diet, so we have genetically altered meat (a/n I don't know if that exists or not) which comes from erudite so that we don't worry about feeling guilty about hurting the animals but we only have chicken, fish, ham and bacon available to us.

" Oh that's sounds amazing, oh please come in where are our manners, Aurelia please help Aphrodite and me with bringing the dishes to the kitchen, little Felipe must be tired and will want to join the boys" mum goes. " Oh it's no worry, Diana, I will gladly help" Felipe asks before taking the trays he was holding to the kitchen.
