I stand there are a few moments just thinking to myself... Why is she here? Gary never mentioned his mum would becoming. What am I going to say to her? Wait it does she even know who I am? Oh my, this is going to be awkward. It is already awkward.
"Hi, Gary never mentioned you'd be coming today... I'm sorry he's not in." I smile not knowing what to say next.
"Err, that's fine my dear. But may I ask who you are?" Oh shit. He hasn't told her.
"I'm Gary's girlfriend..." That's where she cuts me off.
* SLAP! *
"Mum! What the hell." Gary snaps. He's back. Thank fuck for that! I think Gary's mum has just slapped me. Yep she has. Ouch! My fucking face is stinging.
"Gary! I thought you'd dumped her! Why are you still dating the bitch who tried to kill you. You've picked some bad woman in your time son. But none as bad as her!" She snaps not letting Gary or me get a word in. Gary comes to my side wrapping his arm around me and touching my cheek with his warm fingers.
"Mum this is Jade. My new fucking girlfriend. She isn't Emma ok?" He snaps. But then turns back towards me "are you ok my baby?" He kisses my cheek softly. I just nod my head. This is even more awkward than before.
"Oh my, I'm so sorry jade. I thought you were..." Gary cuts her off. "Mum I think you should go. Jade has been through enough over the last few days she doesn't need anymore stress. I'll call you in a few days, yeah?"
"Yes ok son. And jade once again. I'm sorry..." She smiles, I smile back and says "it's fine."
Gary leads me inside, and pulls me onto his knee on the sofa. "I only came back from the studio to see how you were. Good job I did eh?" He smiles running his fingers delicately over my cheek I hiss a little as it stings. "Aye it is a good job you did. I didn't expect to meet your mum today. And especially not like that." I place my head on his chest. "I'm sorry Gary." I sigh.
"Hey. None of that was your fault, it was me mums. Not asking questions just hitting you. Was out of order." He wraps his arms around me again tightly. "I'll text Mark and tell him I can't make it back today." I shake my head.
"No Gary go back to the boys, I'll be ok I promise." I smile.
"Nope I'm not leaving you." He smiles kissing my cheek again softly. "This is just an excuse for, you to stay home with moi isn't it?" I grin kissing Gary softly.
"Maybe." He winks. "I can't help it. Be in a room with the boys. Or watching a film, with my beautiful, sexy girlfriend? Simple choice" He smiles. "I love you mr Barlow." I press my lips against Gary's softly. "And yes it was an easy choice. I'd do the same if it was the other way around. You'd come first every time." I grin and snuggle into Gary's arms.
* two hours later *
I'm snuggled up in Gary's arms. We've just watched a romantic comedy. He's been eating his popcorn so loud. But I find it so cute. He knows he does it to and try to quieten it down, but it makes it so much worst and louder. God he is so beautiful. I'm just staring into his eyes he is perfect. "What? Have I got something on my face?" He runs his face softly. I just laugh. "No your just... Your. Beautiful." I smile so much. Why is he with me?
"Hey don't think say that?" I snap my neck up. "Say what?"
"Say why am I with you. Your amazing and funny and sexy and my soul mate. That's why. I love you Jade." He smiles. "Oh fuck. I said it out loud?" He nods. "Sorry, and I love you so much more than you'll ever know Gary." I softy press my lips against Gary.
