𝒇𝒍𝒂𝒔𝒉𝒃𝒂𝒄𝒌...

"hi, we're here for our 8 pm reservation," my dad says as we step into the restaurant.

"name?" the host asks, her tone clipped.

"amos diggory," he replies firmly.

"okay, follow me," she says, leading us toward the tables. my dad leans in close and whispers, "wow, someone's in a mood."

"she's just doing her job, dad," i reply under my breath. "besides, it's friday night—she probably wishes she were at a party instead of stuck here working."

as the three of us follow her through the restaurant, i suddenly feel an elbow nudge my side. startled, i turn to see what's going on, only to spot them.

it's my mom. and felipe—her new husband.

i lived with felipe for six years, and honestly, he's been a pretty good stepdad. but seeing them here, right now, is jarring. i glance at my dad and can tell he's noticed too. his shoulders go stiff, and there's a tension in his face that wasn't there before. he thought he'd never have to see felipe.

"amos," my mom says, clearly caught off guard.

"cecily, how are you?" my dad replies, his voice low, controlled.

"i'm good, erm... this is felipe, my new husband," she says awkwardly, gesturing toward him.

"hello, i've heard a lot about you," felipe says, his tone calm and measured.

i step forward before the silence stretches too long, giving both my mom and felipe a quick kiss on the cheek. my mom smiles at me warmly, while felipe nods in his usual collected way.

my mom then steps forward, wrapping cedric in a hug. "and this is cedric, my other son," she says proudly.

"it's great to meet you," felipe says, looking at cedric. "i've heard a lot about you, especially from elo."

i smile at the mention of my name, feeling a little relief in the lightness of his tone.

my dad, still silent, finally speaks, his voice tight. "well, it was nice meeting you... and seeing you again, cecily. but we really need to sit down and eat before elo and ced head back for the new school year."

"yes, of course, it was nice meeting you too," felipe begins to say, but my mom cuts him off.

"why don't we all have dinner together? as a family?" she suggests, her voice hopeful.

silence falls over us, heavy and awkward. even the host standing nearby looks uncomfortable.

without really thinking, i blurt out, "sure, a family dinner before you two head back to the states and cedric and i go back to school."

as soon as the words leave my mouth, i feel my dad's sharp gaze on me. i avoid his eyes, unsure if he's angry, disappointed, or both.

 ⋆˚࿔ 𝜗𝜚˚⋆

"so, cecily mentioned you're the quidditch captain for your house," felipe says, clearly trying to ease the tension at the table.

"uh, yeah," cedric replies, sitting up a little straighter. "i'm also one of the prefects for my house, which is hufflepuff."

"that's amazing. i hope we can come see you play one day. honestly, i'm a huge quidditch fan too. back when i was at ilvermorny, i was captain of my team as well," felipe adds with a friendly smile.

without thinking, i grin and say, "go thunderbirds!" loud enough to break through the awkwardness.

but the awkwardness doesn't stay gone for long. silence creeps back in, heavier than before. i silently beg for the server to show up and save us. and just as i'm imagining how much longer we'll have to sit in this weird quiet, she finally arrives.

"hi, my name is vera, and i'll be your server tonight. to start off, do you already know what you'd like to drink?" she asks with a polite smile.

everyone goes straight for alcohol. my dad, my mom and felipe order wine, cedric asks for a beer, and i, without much thought, order a martini. all i want is for this night to be over.

another long pause settles over the table after vera leaves. it feels like the entire evening is going to be filled with these uncomfortable silences, punctuated by forced conversation and strained smiles. i can't help but hope they order more drinks to loosen up—maybe it'll help my mom relax and my dad actually say something.

my phone buzzes, and i glance down to see a message from juni in the group chat with my friends: how's the dinner going?

if only she knew.

⋆˚࿔ 𝜗𝜚˚⋆

by the end of dinner, everyone had loosened up. my dad and felipe were talking like old friends, my mom was laughing at every joke they or cedric cracked, and honestly, the whole table was buzzing with energy. it was obvious that they were all drunk. i wasn't complaining, though—I wasn't as far gone as them, just a little tipsy.

as the conversation continued, i felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. it was juni, calling from the group chat with the girls.

"i'll be right back, i have to take an important call," i said, excusing myself from the table. the "important call" being my friends, of course.

"hey, girls, what's up?" i answered.

"how's it going?" juni asked, only for lils to chime in, "you didn't answer earlier, and we thought maybe the dinner was going horribly."

"guess who we ran into on the way to our table and, check this, who we're now having dinner with?" i said, sounding as exhausted as i felt.

"WHO?" they all exclaimed at once.

"my mom. and felipe," i said flatly.

"OMG, I KNEW IT!" "NO WAY!" "WHAT DID YOUR DAD SAY?" they all shouted at the same time, their voices overlapping in a chaotic mix.

"it was honestly the most awkward thing i've ever witnessed in my life. and that's saying something, considering i once walked in on my ex making out with the person he swore he hated. anyway, even the host looked uncomfortable—it was that bad. seriously, what a disaster. but now it's actually going better than i expected. the three of them—including cedric—are all tipsy, and it's kind of hilarious." i couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity of it all.

"STOP IT, THIS IS TOO GOOD," juni said.
"'TIPSY,' OMG, I'M DYING," added lils.
"aww, elo, that sounds wild," ki said, giggling.

"anyway, i told my parents i'd be back soon. if anything crazy happens, i'll send you guys an update," i said, wrapping up the call.

"bye, elo!" "can't wait for the updates!" "miss you!" they all chimed in before hanging up.

"bye, girls," i said, ending the call and taking a deep breath before heading back to the table.

𝒉𝒊, 𝒃𝒓𝒐𝒔𝒌𝒊𝒔! the second chapter is out!! what did you think? i've never had so much fun writing the flashback, even though i'm not usually into writing a lot, but i think i've fallen in love with how it turned out, lmao. did you guys notice that logan didn't write anything under the last post? what do you think is going on? share your thoughts on what's going to happen with them.

just one more chapter and elo and mattheo meet, my babies!! maybe i'll leave a hook at the end of the next chapter... or maybe not—you'll never know until you read it, lol.  

also, i might already be working on the intro for my other fic with dylan, and maybeeee in the future i'll do one with the marauders, and possiblyyyyy with jacob elordi (my man fr).

sub, like, and comment!!
