Mr. Harris
'Kristen, come on!" Sebastian shouts
'Yes, I'm coming!" I shout and put on my heels and go down
'So, what do you think?" I ask Sebastian as I descend down the stairs
'Wow. Just wow" he says and I chuckled
'Stop staring at me" I tell him
He wraps his arms on my waist. 'How could I? You're the most beautiful woman I have laid my eyes on"
I giggled 'Come on, we're going to be late"
Then we went off. I was so nervous. He kept talking to me but I couldn't understand what he was saying at all.
The car stopped and he took my hand and kissed it. 'Don't be nervous, it doesn't matter if he likes you or not. I like you and that's all that matters"
I nod, he got down first and opened the car door for me. I got down and we went in. We were led to the backyard.
This is it, I tell myself and then when we got there, he didn't tell me that it's not only his dad I'm meeting.
'Good Evening, so this must be Kristen Miles. Good to finally meet you dear, I heard a lot about you" A lady said
'This is Bianca's parents" Sebastian whispers
'You didn't tell me they are going to be here. You just told me we're meeting your dad" I whisper back
'I didn't? I'm sorry. But it's good that you're here now, at least they won't push me to Bianca anymore." He says as he kisses my temples
His dad cleared his throat 'Come sit" he says
'I didn't know, he brought you, I should have known" Mr. Harris says
'You should have known, I would bring her, she's my girlfriend" Sebastian says gritted teeth and I squeezed his hands softly and he calmed down
'I didn't mean it in a bad way, I was just surprise. You never come over here with a girl, even when you were with Bianca" he says
I just sat there and smiled at everyone. They all went quiet.
'Oh, there's my daughter" the other guy says, Bianca's father
We all looked over and there she was walking towards here. She kissed her parents first and then Mr. Harris then hugged Sebastian.
She went over to me and hugged me, that caught me off guard. Then she whispers 'I don't know why Sebastian brought you here but I'll make sure you'll feel out of place"
Then she lets me go with a smile and walked to her seat. I smiled also after.
'Shall we start the dinner?" Mr. Harris says and they started serving the food.
We all started eating. Sebastian never made me feel I was out of place, whenever they talk about business, he was here with me, talking to me, giving me food.
'I'm allergic to peanut" I tell him
'Oh okay, then eat this one instead" he tells me and I smiled and nod at him
I look over at Bianca, and she was glaring at me.
'I guess, your son over here, really found someone he really likes" Bianca's father said as he sliced something to eat from his plate
'Yes, I thought he was just fooling around again but then, I met Kristen over here and from that moment I knew she was different" Mr. Harris said
When I heard that, I knew that he was on my side. I smiled at him.
'Oh yes! I even remember when he broke up with Bianca, he told her that they are not meant to be for each other. But still I am grateful that whenever she calls him, he'd be one call away. He's always been like that, just one call away, right dear?" Bianca's mother says pertaining to me
'Oh, uhmm, yeah. He's always one call away" I say with a smile and I see Bianca's smirk
'Don't start, Bella" her father says
'What? I didn't say anything wrong right, Kristen?" she says
'yes, nothing wrong at all" I answer
'See" she says
Then after that we went back to eating, with still Sebastian pouring all his attention to me. He never took his eyes off me the whole dinner. Even when it was time to go home, he never took a glance at Bianca.
'I'm really sorry for the way they behaved. If I knew you'd come, I never should've invited them in the first place" Mr. Harris says
'It's fine. I had fun tonight Mr. Harris, thank you for the dinner" I say as I wait for Sebastian
He smiles and then said 'It's not my place to say this but I see that you bring out the best out of him. I really want you to be patient with him, he does stupid things, he decides to do stupid things and sometimes, he doesn't know he says or do stupid things"
I chuckled 'All I understand with all that you said is that he is more likely stupid"
'That sums up everything I said" he says chuckling 'You know, I really like you for him. I never liked Bianca his girlfriend, even a friend. Her dad is nice but her mother, I think she got her attitude from her"
I chuckled once again 'It's fine. Like Sebastian said, all that matters is that he likes me"
'He is right but I never expected him to say that. He's really caring lately and soft. He avoids to fight me to, ever since you came along"
'If you're going to thank me right now, don't. He is who he is because of everyone around him, not only me. He changed because he wanted to be a better person and I wil always be supportive of that." I say and he smiled
'Can you promise me one thing?" he says taking a deep breath and looks at me
'What is it?"
'Will you stay with him no matter what happens?" he says, I was about to answer him but then Sebastian honk the car and got down
'We'll leave now" Sebastian says pulling me to him
Mr. Harris nods. 'Kristen?" he asks
'Let's cross the bridge when we get there, Mr. Harris. Good Night" I answer and wave at him smiling. He waved back and Sebastian drove off.
The drive back was silent. I notice he was gripping the steering wheel to tight his knuckles turning pale.
I didn't ask him anything during the ride back but when he parked the car. I asked him.
'Is there something wrong?" I ask
'I should be the one asking you that" he says then looks at me
'Nothing is wrong. I notice the ride back you've been gripping the wheel too tight" I say and caressed his back
'You weren't talking, so I assume you were going to leave me because my shitty dad told you something"
I held his face 'Even if he did, why would I leave you?" I ask
'So, he didn't? What did you talk about then?"
Maybe I should tell him? It could be a way, maybe he could forgive his father already.
'He told me not to leave you because I bring out the best in you" I say
'Oh" was all he managed to say then he continued 'What did you say?"
'He was going to thank me for it but I said no. You are who you are not only because of me but all those people around you. If you changed, it wasn't for me, it was for you"
He smiled. He pulled me to his lap and I was now straddling on his lap.
'We're out side" I whisper as I close my eyes and our forehead against each other.
'I'm not going to do anything. I just want to kiss you" he says and with that he crashed his lips against mine
We were making out on his car when he push me to lean and the car honked, we were both startled by it and stopped kissing, I went back to my sit and we both started laughing.
'We are always getting disturb when chew each other out" he says laughing
I slapped his side 'You're getting a bad term from my brother. He's single and I don't know where he got the word chew to use when he sees someone making out"
'Maybe id my sister was alive and saw her making out with a guy, I would technically say the same" he says and I chuckled, then I stared at him.
We both stared at each other. This night was one of the best nights I ever had and I really hope this last.
I hoped.
