sherri and i walked ahead of mum and dad, contemplating whether this was a good idea.

"they're gonna embarrass the shit out of us" ri dramatically sighed.

"come on it won't be that bad" i nudged her with my elbow.

i could see trevor and jamie sitting at a table with four adults with them, but they didn't notice us.

"oh look there they are" mum said loudly, as we got closer. we walked through the so called 'doors' of the restaurant and waved over to trevor and jamie. they were both sat to their dads and then their mothers were sat opposite them. i sat next to one of the mums, not knowing who was who. we all introduced ourselves and the waiter came over to take our orders. once the waiter was gone, everyone broke out into conversation. the woman next to me talking to me. she was trevor's mum.

"it's so good to finally meet you, i've heard so much about you" she said smiling. oh my days. trevor had been talking to his mum about me. i nervously giggled.

"really?" i asked, looking over to trevor and smiling giddly.

"oh yes, trevor wouldn't stop going on about you the other day and he sa-" she started to say but got interrupted by a loud cough, coming from trevor.

"er mum why don't you ask dot about what it's like to live in britain?" he said pleadingly. his mother gave a knowing nod and asked me what the weather was like back home, i had to explain how bipolar british weather was. then trevor's dad asked me a question.

"so dotty, what school grade are you in?" i explained what grades were in britain.

"so i'm taking a gap year this year, and then i start sixth form this september. you can either choose to do sixth form at a secondary school, like a high school basically, or a college, at a college." i explained hoping they would understand, which they didn't, so my dad did. the waiter came over to us and gave us our drinks and food, i had ordered spaghetti bolognese. his dad asked many more questions until his wife told him to 'leave the poor girl alone and eat your food'.

while eating my tea, i felt a kick under the table. i looked up to see trevor widening his eyes, smiling at me. i smiled back. i turned my head in sherri's direction and saw her and jamie bickering which i thought was very cute.

"sorry when did you say you were leaving?" jamie's mother asked my mum.

"the day after tomorrow. i think our check out is at 11:30" this made me look to trevor once again and give him a sad smile, in which he returned. everybody finished their dinner and the waiter came and took our plates away.

"would you like to stay for dessert?" the waiter asked. everyone looked at each other deciding whether they were going to get pudding, which everyone did. it quickly came and people carried on talking to each other about anything and everything.

the time had come to leave the restaurant. it was 9:45, time flew by. i said goodbye to jamie and trevor's parents as they stepped out of the lift, and then mine.

"don't stay up too late" my mum said, pointing to sherri and i as her and dad exited the lift. once the doors closed shut, i saw the boys let out a breath they seemed to have been holding in.

"we were so over thinking that" i said, finally leaning against trevor's side. everyone agreed. "you two's parents are well nice" i smiled at jamie and trevor. they both laughed. the lift stopped at their floor.

"i'll text you" trevor crained his head down to my height and whispered. this made me blush and nod. he kissed me on the cheek and walked away with jamie. he turned around once more to give ri and i little wave.

sherri and i skipped back to our hotel room, giggling like school girls. as we kicked off our shoes ri talked about how sweet jamie's mother was to her. when she was done, i chatted about the fact that trevor had mentioned me to his mum. this made sherri go feral.

we sat in a comfortable silence for about an hour, watching the telly, when i got a notification. it was a text. from trevor.

"ri"

"hm?"

"he just texted me. saying to meet him downstairs in the lobby" this got her attention. she jumped out of bed and snatched my phone off me.

"oi give it" i snatched it back and she started to jump up and down on my bed, as she relatively sang,

"dotty and trevor sitting in a tree-" i hit her down with a pillow before she could finish. "come on you have to help me decide what to wear" i exclaimed, dragging her off my bed.
