butterflies fluttered in your stomach as the car turned onto one of the wealthier streets.
โhow wealthy is your mom?โ you asked.
โum, pretty wealthy.โ a sheepish look crossed over her face as awkward silence hung in the air.
โwill there be anyone else there?โ
โprobably my momโs boyfriend, jack unfortunately.โ
โsometimes i forget your his number one fan.โ a laugh bubbled out of you as kate gave you an โintimidatingโ glare. even she was biting back a laugh.
the car rolled to a stop outside of a fancy building. it was slightly larger than the ones surrounding it. kate ran around to open the door for you. accepting her hand and thanking her.
a blush crawled up her face as she stared at you. you had tried to find the nicest dress you owned and made sure your makeup looked good.
youโve heard about kateโs mom before. she was rather modest and you knew she wasnโt very fond of kate running around. so, you wanted to prove that you were respectful and a good influence on kate. maybe then sheโll be ok with it.
cars began to honk for kate and you to move out of the way. you both hurried up to the sidewalk hand in hand. walking inside you were taken away with how beautiful the architecture was. kate had greeted the doorman you had passed on the way to the elevator.
โiโm nervous.โ you finally confessed once the elevator doors closed. kateโs hand squeezed your hand in reassurance.
โiโll be by your side the whole time.โ she smiled at you as the elevator doors opened.
a grand foyer opened up to you. a large pot of flowers sat on a table in the middle of the room. nobody was around though.
instead of kateโs mom coming in a middle aged man came in. someone you can only assume is her boyfriend. gray streaked his hair and beard. while there was a dangerous aura around him.
โjack.โ kate gave a small smile, but you could tell she was already uncomfortable.
โjack is that them!โ a womenโs voice came. she appeared in the foyer in a matter of seconds.
โoh kate!โ she ran to give her a hug and once the two broke away she cupped her face. โplease tell me you havenโt done anything stupid recently.โ
โtrust me i havenโt.โ kate smiled, but this time it was a true smile. her mom turned to you a mask falling across her face.
โyou must be y/n.โ you offered her a weak smile before she turned away. jack was still standing there a smirk tugging at his lips.
โdinnerโs this way unless you all want to stand there.โ
you could feel jack staring at you while you took a seat. you sat next to kate who sat across from her mother, with jack across from you.
the food was already there. steam rolling off of it. it smelled delicious and you were going to compliment kateโs mom until she started talking to kate.
โso howโs school?โ as if it was a sore subject the tension in the air began to increase.
โitโs fine. how about we talk about something else.โ kate suggested.
โfine.โ silence fell over and the tension was still there.
you all stay in awkward silence for a few minutes until jack was the one to speak up. โso how did u meet y/n?โ he asked waving in your direction with a fork.
โwe met at an archery camp. y/n was trying archery the first time and i taught her some of the basicsโ
โah, why am i not surprised.โ
โwhatโs that suppose to mean?โ kate was turning rather bitter and angry towards her mother. you knew it wasnโt your fault, but you felt somewhat responsible for this outcome.
โcanโt you just be happy for me?โ
โitโs just going to take time, honey.โ kateโs mom let a small smile form, but kate wasnโt buying it.
โletโs just go y/n.โ
โkate donโt leave,โ her mother called out, but by then you were already in the elevator.
โiโm sorry about dinner.โ kate chuckled awkwardly.
โitโs ok. i think your mom just needs time and thatโs ok.โ
gently kissing her you replied, โpositive.โ
