It's 5 pm on a Thursday. You and Jenna are getting ready to head to her parent's place for dinner. It's your first time meeting them, and you want to make the best impression.

You're in the bathroom with the door locked, worriedly rechecking your appearance in the mirror.

You hear a knock on the bathroom door and Jenna's voice, "Darling, are you ok? You've been in there for a long time."

She tries to open the door and furrows her eyebrows as she sees it's locked. "My love, please let me in or at least respond so I know you're ok."

You take a deep breath, walk to the door and unlock it. You lean against the bathroom counter, playing with your bracelets.

Jenna opens the door and walks up to you, gently taking your hands in hers. You look into her eyes, and she frowns.

"Your hands are shaking, my love. Why didn't you tell me you were nervous?"

You look at her sadly, shaking your head. "I'm sorry, it's so stupid. I'm just worried I'll do something wrong and mess things up."

She cups your face, leaning in to give you a loving kiss. You melt into the kiss, feeling more relaxed as you gently hold her waist.

She pulls back and looks at you with a smile. "I didn't tell you, but my parents are huge fans of some of your movies. They agree with me about you being a great director. So stop worrying, ok?"

You nod softly, pecking her lips. "Thank you, baby. I love you."

She smiles. "I love you too, so much" She bites your lips again. "Now, let's go."

Jenna later parks the car at her parent's house. You both leave the car and go to the front door. You're holding some wine and flowers you picked out for your parents with Jenna.

She knocks on your door, and Natalie, Jenna's mother, answers. She gives Jenna a wide grin as she exclaims, "Oh, I'm so glad you're finally here."

Jenna smiles and hugs her tightly. Natalie then turns to you and chuckles at your hands being full.

You smile, handing her the flowers. "These are for you, Mrs Ortega. It's great to meet you."

She laughs, taking both the flowers out of her hand to put them near the doorway. She pulls you into a hug, and you stiffen up slightly.

Jenna chuckles as she watches you. You quickly hug her back, and she pulls away a moment later. "Y/n, it's so lovely to get to meet you finally. Jenna talks about you all the time."

It's your turn to chuckle as Jenna blushes. You all make your way into the house.

You're led into the kitchen, where Jenna's father, Edward, sets up the table. He looks up towards the three of you and smiles.

He greets you both, turning to you with a smile. "Y/n, it's good to meet you. Natalie and I are big fans of your work."

You nod, wrapping an arm around Jenna. "I was so nervous about coming here today, and this one calmed me right down after she told me" You kiss her cheek, and she smiles up at you.

Your parents smile at each other, watching your interaction with Jenna.

"Why don't you guys take a seat in the living room? Your siblings are probably bickering again," Edward chuckles.

You both head into the living room, seeing Jenna's siblings arguing about something. They notice you and look up.

"Jen! If it isn't my least favourite sibling," Aaliyah, Jenna's younger sister, grins as she hugs her.

Jenna rolls her eyes and pushes her shoulder playfully. Aaliyah then turns to you and smirks. "Wow, Y/n, you're gorgeous; I can't believe Jenna made you agree to date her."

You shake your head, chuckling. "You must be Aliyah? Great to meet you."

You exchange greetings with the rest of her siblings and sit down to watch the tv. Jenna turns to you, taking her hand in yours.

"Everything ok, my love?" she whispers. You nod, giving her a quick kiss. You thought no one noticed until you heard whistling from her siblings, making you both laugh.

Soon enough, Edward calls you all to dinner. You take your seats and enjoy your meal, making some small talk.

After you finish dinner, you and Jenna help clean up the table. Natalie and Edward turn to you once you're finished. "Y/n, mind if we speak to you outside for a few minutes?"

You nod as you hear Jenna's laugh. "You're going to give her a talk? Dad?" Edward shakes his head and smiles.

You step out the door, sitting on the porch with Jenna's parents. Natalie gives you a kind smile as she takes your hand softly, giving it a comforting squeeze.

"Don't worry; we're not here to give you any warnings or threats. We just wanted to thank you," she explains. You look at her, confused.

"Thank me? I'm not sure what for Mrs Ortega," you say. Edward says, "Don't be so modest, Y/n; we know just how much you do for Jenna."

Natalie nods, continuing, "We know how tough her career can get, and she's very committed and stubborn. She got that from me" The three of you chuckle.

"We're just so happy she's found someone who is a strong support system. Thank you for taking care of our girl," Edward says, a smile on his face.

"Of course. She's made me happier than I could imagine, and I'm so in love with her. I'll continue caring for her for as long as she'll have me," you smile.

You give them both quick hugs before heading back inside. You and Jenna continue spending time with her family until the evening.

Once you say goodbye to her family and return to the car, you drive back to your apartment.

Jenna suddenly speaks up. "I love you so much, baby. Thank you for coming with me tonight."

You take her hand as you keep your eyes on the road, pressing a soft kiss to her palm. "Are you kidding, my love? I had an amazing time. I'm just glad your family seemed to like me."

She kisses your cheek, so glad she's found someone who makes her this happy.
