"Okay, pick Zoella up and go straight to the reception," Calum's mum told him,

"Yes mum,"

"Don't mess around Calum," She warned,

"I won't! Zoella wouldn't let me,"

"I'm excited to meet this girl,"

"Don't embarrass me," He said,

"I'll try not to, now go quick," His mum said pushing him away from her lightly. Calum rubbed his sweaty hands together as he walked to his car. He was nervous. Zoella would be in the same room as all of his family soon and he was sure they would embarrass him and ask the same question over and over again,

"How long have you two been together?"

Which would be awkward considering they gave it a go and it didn't work out well.

When he pulled up outside Zoella's house his nervousness increased. She would probably laugh at him in his formal wear, he felt like an idiot in the suit, tie and fancy shoes.

"Calum!" Zoella's mum, Niamh, shouted when she opened the door,

"Hi Niamh,"

"You called me Niamh! Thank you, I'll just go get Zoella," She smiled running up the stairs, he fiddled with his tie and looked in the mirror to make sure he hadn't ruined it completely.

"Calum you look fine," Zoella laughed,

"I feel like an idiot, or a business man," He said as he turned around and froze.

"Zoella?"

"Is it too short? I can change," She said,

"No! You look amazing,"

"Oh, thanks," She laughed blushing, Calum smirked knowing he had made her blush. Her heels were very high but they made her legs look longer,

"Do you want to bring a change of shoes just in case your feet get sore?" Calum asked,

"Good idea," She said running up the stairs. Calum wondered whether she was superwoman because there was no way in hell anyone else would run up the stairs with the size of those heels.

"Okay, I got vans. Will that look stupid?" She asked,

"No," He laughed,

"Okay let's go," She said holding his hand,

"WAIT! Picture!" Niamh shouted, Zoella complained but Calum laughed and pulled her into him giving her a sloppy kiss on the cheek,

"Adorable," Her mum said grabbing a sharpie and writing the date, time and occasion. Zoella groaned loudly,

"You'd think it was prom," She mumbled,

"I'd love to take you to prom," Calum said,

"I'll remind you at Christmas,"

"Christmas prom, romantic," Niamh said smiling at the two of them holding
hands.

"Let's go," Zoella said pulling him out of the house,

"Have fun!" Her mum shouted behind them,

"Sorry about her," Zoella said,

"Wait till you meet my family," Calum mumbled,

"What?"

"Nothing," Calum said. Zoella got into the car and Calum pulled a funny face.

His family better be on their best behaviour otherwise there is never going to be a Calum & Zoella.
