Moving In - A Vinnie Hacker Story

Moving In - Pt19

*this photo... phew*

V: I'm nervous.
Y/n: Don't be. She's chill... most of the time.
V: Most of the time? That doesn't help me. What id she hates me because of my tattoos or piercings?
Y/n: Vin, calm down. It's ok. Just pick out a good outfit. She'll like you better if you have good style. But, you have to wear an actual shirt. I'm not so sure my mom wants to see your abs.
V: You sure about that? You said you guys are similar. Maybe she'll like me, too?
Y/n: She'll like your personality, but your body is all mine. Got it?
V: Yes, ma'am.

He was so nervous trying to pick out a good outfit. I was trying to calm him down. We were only going to a casual lunch, but he wanted to make a good impression.

He was rushing me to get tell ready faster. I kept kissing him and telling him that we didn't have to rush, but he was too stressed to even listen to me.

Vin drove us over there and we arrived 15 minutes early. He was really trying to make a good impression. He never gets anywhere early.

V: Should we go to our table or should we wait?
Y/n: Vin, calm down, please. We're too early for them to even let us go to the table, but when it's free, we'll go.
V: I should've taken that weed from Bryce. I'm way too on edge right now.
Y/n: We can take him up on that when we leave.
V: Ok. Also, where is your mom staying?
Y/n: She's visiting my aunt, so she's staying there.
V: Ok, that makes sense.
Y/n: Vin, it's gonna be okay.
V: Ok.

They cleared our table and we took a seat and Vinnie was blushing. He didn't look as nervous anymore, though. He's so cute.

My mom arrived and sat down at the table. She was so excited. I think her mood kinda lifted Vinnie's. She wasn't as intimidating as he thought she would be.

Mom: So, you're the same Vinnie that helped us move Y/n in, right?
Y/n: Mom!
Mom: Just making sure. *giggle*
V: Yes, that was me.
Mom: Have you guys been together since then? You know, Y/n has had an interesting past with guys, but I didn't expect her to get a guy her first day here, especially not the mover boy.
Y/n: Oh, my God. Mom! Stop.
V: It's ok, Y/n. I honestly wasn't expecting it either. I was only helping the guys out. I don't work for them. But, I guess it all worked out in the end.

I tried not to shoot a death glare at my mom. After all, she's still my mom, and I'm not trying to die. I think she's just testing him, but she doesn't have to do it right off the bat.

Mom: That's a good answer. So, are you in college, too?
V: Uhh, actually. I'm not.
Mom: Why is that?
V: I got offered a job, so I took a break after graduation to take the opportunity and moved out to LA.
Mom: What do you do?
V: Well, I'm living in an TikTok and gaming house. It's doesn't exactly sound like the best job, but it pays really well.
Mom: I've heard of TikTok. Are you like those fuckboys that are all over the app?
Y/n: Mom!
Mom: Ugh, fine. Where'd you move from, then?
V: Seattle.
Mom: Oh, we've been there before for spring break once. It was nice.

The conversation shifted away from Vinnie and onto me. It was extremely embarrassing, but I could tell that Vinnie was getting uncomfortable with the questions.

She started showing him childhood photos of me. They were cracking up. She even showed him the ugly Christmas photos when I had braces. AND the photos of me when I was fat and all my shirts were too short and showed my stomach. He was definitely gonna use this against me. But, I liked that they were getting along.

V: Wait, wait. You have to see this one. She fell asleep when we were watching a movie and she drooled all over the remote. We had to get a new one because she broke it.
Mom: Oh, that's amazing! You have to send that to me.
Y/n: Mom, I swear if I see that on your FaceBook, I'm reporting your account.
Mom: Oh, don't be so dramatic. I'm just gonna send it to my sister.
Y/n: If sending it to your sister means sending it to the family group chat, then you better not.
V: I think it's a great idea. They should see what they have to live up to.
Mom: Exactly! You see? He gets it.
Y/n: Thank, Vin. Real helpful.
V: Anytime.
