We stayed on my bed just holding each other for what felt like hours but was actually fifteen minutes. I can't believe I just told Will all that stuff with Greg in my room without me knowing. Now I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off of my shoulders. Honestly I've been carrying that on my shoulders for quite some time, and the fact that Greg was there to witness it and embraced me in a hug that I so desperately needed, if that happened and Greg wasn't there I probably would've cried my eyes out and listened to music.
"Are you still up for going to your parents house?" Greg asks softly. See that's one of the things I liked about Greg. No matter what he was sensitive about hard subjects. He might seem like some cocky treblemaker and somebody who is my polar opposite but once you got to know him he was sweet.
"Yeah I already told her so we might as well" Now to tell my mom about this or not "And she's making lasagna and I love her lasagna!" I add in smiling. It's been a few months and I miss her cooking.
"Okay if your sure" he chuckles quietly... probably at my attempt to not drool. I gather up my bags and leave a note for Beca telling her where we are. Greg opens up to trunk of his car and I toss my bag in there. "Anywhere you want to stop?"
"Can we stop at a convenience store? I really really want pretzel M&M's"
"Yeah sure, might as well get a few drinks for the ride even if it is an hour." He plugs in his phone so we can listen to music on the way there. Cody Simpson starts playing from the speakers. I immediately start laughing, I'm rolled up in a ball in my seat with tears streaming down my face.
"What?" he asks confused as if nothing's wrong.
"I didn't peg you for a Cody Simpson fan" I say while I wipe the tears off my face.
"I don't like him. My sister is a fan... which is kind of weird considering she's in her twenties" he shrugs his shoulders. Soon enough we pull into a parking lot of a convenience store. Before I can unbuckle my seat belt Greg is outside my door opening it for me. I feel a rush of heat envelope my cheeks. I stare down at the ground embarrassed.
Suddenly I feel Greg's fingers lifting up my chin, brushing my blonde hair from my face. "Your cute when you blush" He grabs my hand and opens the door to the store open for me causing me to once again blush. I immediately head towards the chocolate and candy area scanning for Pretzel M&M's. Aha there they are! I grab two packages then head towards the drinks section where Greg is. I grab an orange vitamin water which is my favourite drink of all time.
"Did you pick something yet" I ask him.
"Yeah, just waiting for you" while he's not looking I pick up a bag of chips and lay it on the counter with my chocolate and drink away from Greg's items.
"Together or separate?" The cashier asks.
"Together"
"Separate" Greg and I say at the same time. Before I can register what's happening Greg is paying for my stuff along with his.
"You didn't have to pay for my stuff, I have my own money which is why I wanted to go there!" I grab my M&M's from the bag and rip it open eating them while Greg get's the car started.
"I know, but I like paying for them" he says with a smile while driving. "Should I be worried about meeting your parents?"
"No, don't worry about them, they'll probably just ask you simple questions but.." I trail off not wanting to end my sentence. The last guy I brought home was Cameron which was a year or so ago and let's just say my parents interrogated him like no tomorrow, but let's not think about that. I shudder from the memories, ugh I wish I never met him.
"But..." Greg trails off wanting me to continue. My eyes trail up to his eyes as he smirks down on me.
"But last time I brought home a guy my parents totally interrogated him" Panic sets in on Greg's face. "Only cause they didn't like him, but don't worry, they'll like you!" I grab more pretzel M&M's and eat them one by one relaxing knowing nothing else could possibly go wrong... Unless Will shows up and decides to ruin everything.
"Okay well, that's relieving. Hey what's wrong?" before I can say anything he interrupts me "And don't say nothing's wrong, I know you better than you think. You get this look on your face like something bad might happen and you're thinking of the outcomes that might happen. Is it your parents? Is it Will?" he takes a breath of silence then asks "Did I do something wrong?"
"You didn't do anything wrong and it's not my parents, it's just Will. I'm scared he'll show up and ruin everything. He knows my mom's making her lasagna and he absolutely loves it and can't resist it but ever since the fight that we had, I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off of my shoulders." I take a huge breath of relief letting it all out. We stay in silence for a few minutes listening to Greg's phone which is currently playing Wonderwall by Oasis. I glance over at Greg and see his hands tighten over the steering wheel and an angry expression plastered onto his face, on him it look's unnatural. Most of the time he's arrogant, cocky, playful, flirty, silly and just plain out Greg. He almost never looks mad but I have seen him look jealous. "What's wrong? And don't tell me nothings wrong either."
His hand goes up to his hair and ruffles it up a bit making it look slightly messy. "What would you do if Will changed and wanted you back? Or what if you met somebody else who's nicer than me and who's around more and who likes everything that you like?" He sighs again. "I know I hurt you that one time but I'm not saying I'm never going to hurt you again. Not physically I would never do that" This is the side that I don't get to see often. The nice, caring, insecure Greg. I guess I never really thought about what if I met somebody else because me and Greg clash against each other perfectly... if that makes sense.
"Shouldn't I be the one worrying over you finding someone prettier, skinnier with a great singing voice?" I respond while digging through the plastic bag for my drink.
"You don't have to worry about that. I may have been a player, and all that but I only have eyes for you and no one else" He says with a smile. That was really really cheesy actually. Fifteen more minutes then he gets to meet everybody... Including my older brothers
"I forgot to mention something as well" I say kind of shrinking into me seat. "I have 3 older brothers who you'll be meeting"
Greg's face pales and just nods, well he only has fifteen minutes to prepare himself to meet them, I'm sure he'll be fine... Or not.
We pull up in front of my house, my mom is sitting on the bench that my dad and brothers built three years ago. I look at the three story blue house with a deck wraped around it, the white picket fence, green grass and the flower garden that my parents work tirelessly on during the spring and summer. I haven't really noticed much but I miss being home actually now that I think about it. I'm so happy I'm home and get to see my family, especially my brothers who I'm very close with. I have three brothers, Scott, Matt, and Alex. Instead of them having blonde hair like me and my mom, they have brown hair like my dad, all except Scott who has blonde and also the one I'm closest too which is totally cliche but it's true. Stepping out of the car I'm immediately thrown into a hug from Scott.
"I missed ya squirt" he says while holding me tightly. I hug him back in return breathing in his all to familiar scent which I've missed these past few months.
"Missed you too" I respond we let go of each other before he kisses me on the forehead and I'm soon engulfed into a group hug by Matt and Alex. "Woah guys, don't break me, I'm the only sister you have"
"Yeah we missed you too Bri bear" Matt ducks before I can hit him already knowing my response to the old nickname.
"Didn't I tell you guys not to call me Bri- bear" I say pouting.
"Yes you did, but you'll always be Bri- bear to us" I look at Greg to see how he's doing and I'm not surprised he's just standing there awkwardly, not knowing what to say. I give my parents a quick hug each before backing away, time to introduce them to Greg.
"Guys this is Greg" I say introducing him to my family hoping for the best.
