I'm dating a rock star an Eddie Van Halen story

78

The year was 1977 and Ed was going to come over to meet Beth's parents. Ed pulled up in his Jeep and parked on the grass. Me: Hey Ed! Ed: Hey babe! Ed came over and kissed me, then we went inside. Me: Mom, Dad, I'd like you to meet my boyfriend Edward Van Halen. Mom and Dad: Hi Edward. Ed: Hi. You can call me Ed. What are we having for supper Beth? Me: Spaghetti! Ed: Ooh my favorite! *We all sat down for dinner.* Dad: Ed, we've heard a lot about you from Beth. What do you like to do? Ed: Well, I love playing guitar and hanging out with Beth. Me: Ed is in a band! Mom: Really? What's the name of your band? Ed: Van Halen. It's named after my brother Alex and I. Dad: Do you think you're going to become popular? Ed: Nah, we just get together and have fun. Right now we're playing in small bars and restaurants. Me: It would be awesome if you guys did become a big band! *We finished dinner and then watched a movie together. After the movie, Ed had to go.* Ed: Thanks for having me over for dinner, it was great! Mom: It was great finally meeting you since Beth talks about you so much! *Ed and I walked outside to his Jeep.* Me: So what do you think of my parents? Ed: I think they're nice! Your dad seemed to be interested in the band. Me: They liked you Ed, mom and dad said they were both really excited to meet you. Ed: Your mom's spaghetti was the best I've ever had! Me: I know, I love it! Ed: I should probably get going. Me: Mann... See you tomorrow after school! Ed: I love you Beth! Me: I love you too! *Ed gave me a kiss and then jumped into his Jeep. Ed waved to me as he pulled away.*
