"Do I look alright?" I ask, turning around and showing Taylor my Christmas Lunch outfit,

"Beautiful," He smiles, approving my black skinny jeans, with a fairly dressy top that Makena gave me earlier this morning, and who could forget my stunning necklace that I received as well,

"Do I look alright?" He grins, mimicking me,

"Great," I nod as he pretends to flip hair off his shoulder, making us both laugh in sync.

"Let's go," He smiles, placing his arm around my waist, after we finish laughing.

The closer we get to the dining room, the louder the few voices get, "I didn't know anyone was here yet?" I whisper towards his ear,

"It's my grandparents, they just want to be here early,"

I clasp my hands on his hip as we enter the room, his grandparents eyes and his parents eyes are all on us. It seems like forever but it was only for half a second in reality,

"Merry Christmas!" His grandma squeals rushing over to us,

"Zoe, this is my grandma, Tiffany,"

"Please, call me May-may,"

She envelopes me in a hug, "How are you Zoe? Nice to meet you,"

"I'm great thank you,"

"Has my Taylor been looking after you?"

I nod, unable to hold back a smile, she just lights up the room, "He has indeed,"

"James, get over here," She instructs, waving her husband over, "This is Zoe,"

"Hello," He smiles, shaking my hand, "Nice to finally meet you,"

"You too,"

"Taylor," James nods as Taylor hugs him and then Tiffany.

"So Zoe," Tiffany starts, taking a seat at the table and pulling out the chair next to her for me, "I've been told before but I never remember it. How did you two meet?"

"I got invited by the director of Eclipse to go and stay on set because I'm featuring in his next movie, and we just met on the first day that I was there,"

"Did you know anyone?"

"I'd only spoken to David before but a few of the other boys called and introduced me to a few people when I first arrived,"

"Well," She starts, "I'm glad he has someone to keep him grounded,"

"I don't think he'd really let fame get to his head anyhow, but as long as I'm around, it won't,"

She chuckles and looks over towards him, while he talks to James and his dad,"

A white car pulls up to the driveway and a couple with a girl, maybe a few years younger then Makena, get out.

"Taylor," Tiffany calls as she nods her head, to get him to come over here, "You're uncle is here,"

He looks out the window and takes my hand which was resting on the table and opens the door at the same time.

"Hey guys!" He smiles as the little girl hugs him first, "Hey Mills,"

"Before you go anywhere, this is my girlfriend Zoe. Zoe, this is my uncle Karl, his wife Sarah and their daughter Millie,"

"Hi Zoe," Karl smiles, "There doesn't really seem to be a story about Taylor, without you anymore,"

"I haven't looked at any yet," I chuckle as Sarah hugs me and Millie smiles,
