Shailene POV

"How do I look?" I ask stepping out of the bathroom.

"Shailene, you look perfect in all 3 outfits." Theo says.

I look at myself in the full length mirror and frown. Theo and I are currently in London, at a hotel. We are about to go to dinner with his parents and I can't decide on an outfit. I want to look nice but I feel like I'm over-doing it.

When he told me I couldn't show up in sweatpants and a tee-shirt, I knew this must be a big deal.

Theo comes behind me and wraps his arms around my waist.

"No more changing, you look stunning." He kisses my neck and I smile.

I'm wearing a gray dress that hugs my waist and flares out. Theo is just wearing a suit. We're going to some really high class place. I can't shake the feeling that Theo's parents wont like me.

"We need to get going love." Theo says.

I grab a coat to go over my dress along with a scarf. It's very cold in London at the moment and I would enjoy not freezing to death. Theo takes my hand and we walk down the hotel's hallway to the elevator. I let go of Theo's hand and begin to fiddle with my fingers as we wait for the elevator. Theo looks at me and then looks at my hands.

"Shai, they're my parents, not peverted clowns. I don't understand the big deal." Theo says. I laugh at his statement and he smiles.

"I know, but what if they don't like me?" I say.

"I don't care. I don't need their approval to be happy." Theo replies. He kisses my nose and laces his fingers with mine. I feel a chill down my spine.

The elevator comes and we both step in keeping our hands together. The ride down is silent, which is okay because I think any further conversation would've made me want to puke.

We step off the elevator, through the lobby, and outside into the, cold, crisp air. I have actually developed a strong liking for the UK. This is my third time here with Theo, and everytime I love it more and more.

We walk about 3 blocks with our hands perfectly locked together. I am caught in my own little world admiring all the lovely things I'm seeing in London. And having Theo with me makes the experiances even better. I snap out of my daze when Theo nudges me.

"Ready love?" He asks. We stand in front of the restaraunt in the cold December air. I nod and Theo opens the door for me.

I walk in and immediatly the warm air hits me, thawing my cold nose and cheeks. Theo comes in and stands beside me. He puts an arm around my waist as a waitor comes up to us.

"Good evening. Do you have reservations?" He asks with a thicker accent then Theo's, I almost find it difficult to understand him. He has orange hair, light eyes, and freckles. Lots and lots of freckles.

"Yes, Taptiklis please." Theo replies.

"Ah, you have folks waiting for you," They're here. His parents are here. I'm gonna throw up. "Right this way." The waitor leads us through the restaruant which looked small on the outside but on the inside it's enormous. Theo keeps his hand on the small of my back as we make our way through the restaruant, past people.

The waitor stops at a table up ahead with two people already seated. Theo's parents. My throat tightens, this is it.

The woman- Theo's mom- jumps up and rushes to me.

"Oh my- you must be Shailene." She says excitedly. She has a british accent like Theo and everyone else in this country. Obviously.

I nod my head and smile at her, unable to speak. She engulfs me in a bone crushing hug.

"Oh! I've heard so much about you! I couldn't wait to meet you." She says. I feel like a weight has been lifted off my chest. I put my arms around her and hug her back.

"Ok mom, your going to make her pass out." Theo says.

"Oh sorry love." She says.

"Oh it's not a problem." I reply. She smiles at me and we all take our seats at a round table with 4 chairs.

Theo's dad looks at me suspicously and it's beginning to make me uncomfortable. I shift in my seat and Theo raises an eyebrow. I nod my head slightly towards his dad.

"Dad.." Theo says.

"Yes son?" he replies without taking his eyes off me.

"What are you looking at?" Theo says awkwardly.

Theo's mom looks up from the menu and sees my expression. She looks at her husband and slaps his arm with the menu.

"OW!" He whisper/yells since we're in a restaruant.

"Stop scaring her! She isn't like the last one." His mom scolds. By 'the last one' I'm assuming she means Ruth. I don't know much, but I heard it ended very badly.

"Let's please talk about something else." Theo says.

"Oh sure!" His mom says, then she turns to me. "Psst! Shailene, would you like to see something?"

I smile. "Sure!"

She takes out her purse and pulls out a small book of some sort. Kind of looks like a photo album. When Theo sees it his face turns pale. His mom scoots closer to me and opens the book. And right before my eyes, is naked, baby Theo in the bath.

"Oh my gosh!" I gasp, "Awwwe! Theo!" I say. Theo's face turns tomato red. His mom and I laugh, and she continues to show me embarrassing pictures which I found, very cute.

"Mooommm!" Theo whines as I begin to laugh harder. She sends him a deadly look, his eyes widen and he hides behind his menu.

*after dinner*

"Thank you for dinner!" I tell Theo's parents. His dad warmed up to me throughout the dinner and he smiles at me. It's not full trust, but it's a start.

"Anytime love! Please come back to visit soon!" His mom says.

"Of course!" I smile and she hugs me. Theo and I lace our fingers together and walk down the streets towards the hotel.

"I-uh-I-um sorry.." He stutters.

"For what? I love your mom." I say giggling.

"Yeah well..." He looks embarrassed.

"Aw Theo don't be embarrassed, you were very cute as a little one. What happened?" I say.

"Hey!!!!"

"Kidding!" I say kissing cheek. He smiles. I yawn and realize how tired I am. My eyes feel droopy like I will fall asleep standing up.

"Theoooooo carry me, I'm tired." I say.

He stops and picks me up.

"I wasn't serious... But this totally works for me." I say snuggling up in his arms.

"Anything for you." He says kissing my head.
