It’s now Monday and the day I was dreading more than ever, the day where Liam gets to meet my family. I was a nervous wreck all day and I couldn’t get the thought out of my head that something was going to happen. Me and my big mouth had to go and ruin everything yesterday after dad told us we were going to move because someone was after mom. After what happened with dad and mason the house was tense and I didn’t want to be here but I had to because I had no where else to go.
I was just excited to be close to Liam do you blame me? Well I blame myself because knowing dad he was going to pull the overprotective card and when he gets like that there’s no escaping him. I know it’s going to take us a while before we moved so Liam would be able to meet my parents and brothers which would be happening sooner than I think.
“ please dont let anything happen and let dad accept Liam.” I sent a short prayer to god and sighed. Jason and Kayla told me that everything was going to be ok and I shouldn’t worry so much which they were right of course but I couldn’t help it. I know my dad, everyone knows him and knows the type of person he is and trust me he can be scary when he’s ready.
It’s the end of the day and I parted ways with Jason and Kayla who told me to text them and let them know how dinner went. I was now waiting for the twins and Liam so we could go home and get this over and done with. Liam had agreed to drive with us since he didn’t know where we live. In the car Caleb and mason kept giving death glares as if hoping to scare him away but Liam only shook his head and told them that wasn’t going to work which had them groaning and throwing their hands up in the air out of frustration, I laughed a little after seeing their reaction. When we arrived, Caleb and mason got out of the car first and I stayed back with Liam.
“ you worry too much.” He said as he started stroking my cheek. I blushed and look down while fiddling with my fingers.
“ I only worry because I don’t want to leave you, if dad doesn’t approve of us then....” he cuts me off by placing his finger on my lip.
“ shh Mia I can take care of myself and I can take care of your father just trust me on this ok?” He asked and I nodded my head. He leaned down and gave me a quick kiss then open the door for me to get out, here goes nothing.
We were now at the dinner table with dad shooting daggers at Liam and all he was doing was smirking, was he that confident? To come into the lion’s den and try to piss him off? Anyways we’ll just have to wait and see.
“ so tell me Bert.” Liam held his hand up and my heart started beating fast. I’ve never seen anyone doing that to dad and so it was frightening.
“ my name is Liam Elijah James don’t make me repeat myself again.” Everyone gasp and my eyes became wide as I wait for dad to explode. What the hell does Liam think he’s doing? Doesn’t he want us to be together? He and dad kept going back and forth and to be honest I was tired of it. I was nervous yes, but I was more tired of listening to them bickering like two old ladies. I tried to ignore them as much as possible so I held my head down while playing with my food, at least this was more fun. After dad said something about Liam being seventy I chuckled a bit because it was funny, Liam laughed as well and I looked up to find him shaking his head. The i***t had to remind them of the tattoo he had on his neck and I braced for the outburst from dad. As he was about to explode mom spoke up and I sent a silent thank you to her because I was really starting to shake like a leaf. This was one of the worst family dinners ever.

I was pissing him off and I knew it. I kept that smirk on my face which seems to irritate him a lot and so I continued doing it. I know I shouldn’t be tempting him but I wanted to show him I wasn’t scared of him. This was the man everyone was afraid of? I scoffed to myself when I realize there wasn’t really anything much to him to be afraid of.
I mean not being gay or anything but he was a handsome man with jet black hair and grey eyes. His sons got his looks and believe me it was quite freaky sitting down surrounded by his clones. I was glad mia had her mother’s brown hair or I wouldn’t know what to do since she had her father’s Grey eyes as well. I said something to piss him off and he slams his hand down on the table making everyone else flinch apart from me, yeah I’m not scared of you fucker.
As he fires off questions after questions I answered them with equal confidence and I could see he was looking at me with an expression on his face that I didn’t like one bit.
“ you say you’re not a bully right? But the way you acted towards my daughter classifies you as being a bully. You blatantly told her that she was yours as if she didn’t have a say in it otherwise.” I rolled my eyes and looked at mia who still had her head down and told her to hold her head up, if looks could kill id be six feet under for that I’m sure.
“ you expect me to let you date my daughter after what I’m witnessing right now?” I shrugged my shoulders and he looked at me like he wanted to kill me which I didn’t give a damn, I just continue giving him that smirk that he seems to can’t stand the sight of.
“ well it’s not up to you now is it? It’s all up to mia if she doesn’t want to date me anymore. Even though I’m not going to sit back and let her walk out of my life just like that, I’m going to fight for her.” Mrs.s looks like she was about to cry and I didn’t know why. My comment wasn’t that heartfelt so why was she acting like a cry baby? He called me Jake after Mrs.s whispered something to him and I shook my head and chuckled a bit. After he was done telling me he was going to give us one chance and if I mess it up he wanted me to walk away and not bother her again I saw Mia’s face lit up and I was glad she was finally smiling. This dinner sucks big time and I hope I don’t have to do this again. I thanked him for giving us a chance and we all started eating which was long overdue.
We went outside and right away I could tell he was watching us through the curtain so I grabbed Mia and kissed her just to piss him off some more. Hahaha the look on his face was priceless! Mrs.s came out with cooper their golden retriever and Mia started playing with him.
“ you really like her don’t you?” I look at her and smile a real smile this time because I kinda like Mrs.s better than her husband.
“ a lot Mrs. s.” I nodded my head towards the window and she looked in the direction I pointed.
“ I know he’s there Mrs.s you don’t have to worry. It’s kinda nice how protective he is of his daughter. I won’t damage her I promise. He just have to learn to let go when the time comes. My dad is exactly like that with my sister who is Mia’s age. I can understand why he’s like this but please let him know that if he tries to scare me away, it’s not going to work. Mia is mine and I’ll make sure it stays that way.” I walked away from her after my speech so I could play with cooper as well, on this day Dominic sanders Met is match and thrust me it’s not going to be a pretty sight.
