"You nervous?"
"A bit"
"You'll be ok, I'm sure you won't even see my parents," my new boyfriend, Rafe, reassured me.
We walked in his house and Rafe closed the door behind us. His step-mom, Rose, walked by the stairwell and stopped when our eyes met. I nervously smiled and waved, a small greeting to, hopefully, give a good first impression. She returned the gesture and walked into the room she was headed to.
I followed Rafe to his room and closed the door behind me. We hung out in bed the rest of the day watching movies, scrolling on our phones and talking while cuddling.

I waited after knocking on the door until someone answered, hoping it would be Rafe, I got excited but saw Rose when the door left the frame.
"Oh, it's you again," she said.
Rafe and I had been dating for months, though we always spent time at my house instead of his. He insisted his parents were crazy and his sisters were annoying, so he hated bringing me there. And when he did, they were usually on vacation or not home.
We spent most of our time out on dates, walking around Outer Banks, spending time at my house and out on the water. This time, however, I was bringing him some cookies I made. He had texted earlier that morning saying his family would be out on the boat, which meant he had the house to himself.
"Uh yeah, is Rafe here?"
"He'll be here shortly, do you want to come in?" Rafe's step-mom asked. I nodded and stepped into the house, following her into the kitchen.
I placed the container of cookies on the counter and joined her sitting at the island.
"Would you like something to drink?"
"Just a water please, thank you."
She grabbed a glass of water and passed it over, joining me once more.
"I wasn't expecting you today," she started, "I actually wasn't expecting you to see you again."
I was confused on what she was trying to point out or say.
"I just figured you were a one night thing-"
"I'm not the kind of girl, Mrs. Cameron," I interrupted her.
"I know, honey. I just know Rafe and well... I'm glad you're here. I've seen a change in Rafe and well, he's happier, so much happier. We've all seen it and I'm glad he's found someone like you,
Y/N."
I couldn't believe what I was hearing, it made me glad to hear I made Rafe happy. Even though I knew that, I needed the validation sometimes.
I smiled, "I'm really glad I've met someone like your son, he makes me really happy as well."
We continued talking until the door opened and Rafe walked into the kitchen.
"Oh hi, babe. What are you doing here?"
"Was waiting for you, though I think I like Rose more than you now."
He rolled his eyes and grabbed my wrist, pulling me towards his room. I turned and waved bye to Rose with a smile, which she returned.
A/N- sorry for literally not posting for a month... August was crazy, I literally had a concert every weekend and worked 40+ hours a week. I still hope you guys enjoy the imagine and I'm hoping that I start posting more.
