Now I know her name 💗 [ A Shawn Mendes Fanfic]

27. He's a Keeper

I wake up the next day with a text from Aaron.

When Aaron arrives, we sit, put on a horror movie and eat our ice cream.

Aaron jumps at the slightest scare.
I can't help but laugh.
I love horrors so I'm not too fazed but he looks adorable.

"Come here doofus"

"Why are you scared?"

"No but you are" I chuckle as he relentlessly scoots over to me.

He lays on top of me his, head on my chest as I run my fingers through his hair.

"My mom is coming home in an bit maybe you two should meet?" I suggest.

My mom means a lot to me and I want her to meet Aaron so that I know what she thinks.

"V, I look like trash"
he says sitting up.

I can tell he is panicking.

"No, you look adorable and if you were all dressed up, she'd like you less" I shrug.

"Okay, if you want me too I will stay"
I nod my head.

"Anything for you"

He kisses me.
I kiss back.
His hand goes under my shirt and he runs his hand up and down my spine.

It gives me chills.

I hear my mom pull up on the drive. We compose ourselves and go to the door.

"Hey mom" I smile.

"Hi sweetie"

"I really want you to meet Aaron Carpenter"

"Well hello Aaron Carpenter"

"Hello Miss?"

"Just call me June"

"Okay June, it's nice to meet you"

"Are you staying for dinner? We're having sushi"

My mom looks at him hopefully and I squeeze his hand.
He looks at me and smiles.

"Sure, I'd love to ma'am - I love sushi"

My mom smiles.

"You're very polite - V I approve"

I start to blush.

I knew she would but couldn't she have said that when he wasn't standing there.

I feel Aaron looking at me and smirking.
He leans in and kisses my cheek.

"It's okay beautiful, I'm glad she does."

At dinner, Aaron has his hand on my thigh the whole time.
I think it's for reassurance that I won't leave him with my mom.

Not that she'd do anything, she is pretty laid back but still.

Him and my mom get along well.

They have a decent conversation about what he does and then obviously my mom realises he is friends with Cameron and the conversation goes on to that.
By the time they finish talking, both are out of breath.

We clear the table and then Aaron turns and thanks us for the meal and explains that he will head home now but see us both soon.

I walk him to the door.

"Thank you" I smile.

"As I said - I'd do anything for you" he pulls me into him and kisses me.

I wave him goodbye and blow him a kiss as he drives off.

"He's a keeper V"

"You think?"

"I know" my mom says with a huge grin.
