Summer Daisies

Fleurish. The place held a friendly atmosphere and a beautiful appeal that no person could simply ignore. The flowers were blossomed at their peak with the lovely summer weather, giving the store and the area around them a sweet aroma. It was finally vacation time for the Hogwarts students after a restless year of school. Jonathan usually took the time to visit the familiar store to pick up a few things for him and his family then maybe enjoy a cup of coffee before returning back him. However this year, he had another activity on his list. The young man walked out of the store with a bouquet of white Daises and a few bags in his hand. He check his bronze pocket watch and waited patient. He and his girlfriend had planned to hang out this summer and meet each other's families. Jonathan was still a bit nervous about the hold thing, but was also curious about the situation as well. So here he was, waiting for his girlfriend to meet him here. He hoped Sierra didn't get lost or over slept this time. "She'll be here, no doubt about it," he reassured himself. How could she not be here after he planned a surprise for her?

Sierra walked down the pathway as she searched for Jonathan. SHe was so excited for the upcoming summer. She and Jonathan planned to hang out the whole time. She couldnt wait for him to meet her parents and she couldnt wait to meet his family. She finally saw him outside Floruish and smiled as she walked towards him. "Hey handsome. Miss me?" She giggled and kissed him lightly. She eyed the flowers in his hands and smiled. He was so sweet. "WOuld those happen to be for me, Love?" She looked up into his eyes and smiled. She took his hand and bit her lip shyly. "Ive missed you."

"Of course I did, darling." He kissed her lovely soft lips then chuckled. The idea that they could spend time with each other without the stress of school was quite enlightening. Jonathan handed her the daisies, noticing how they brought a spark of joy to her already beaming attitude. "Yes, these are for you. I figured it would be appropriate to present to you a small gift before meeting your parents," he explained. It was a good habit that he was brought up with to have the best of manners, especially with a lady. The good attributes of a gentleman, no doubt. Jonathan held her hand up to his face and kissed the back of it. "I've missed you too." He voice was nervous yet it also held a gleeful tone to it. "So is there anything else you wish to get before we leave?" He asked.

Sierra smiled as Joanthan softly kissed her. She loved the feeling of his lips on hers, she would never get tired of it. SHe kissed his cheek lightly as he handed her the flowers, "They are beautiful, thank you." She beamed up at him and smelled the bautiful boquet he presented her with. "Good manners. Keep that up. My dad may be a goof. But he is still very protective of me. As is my best friend. You will meet him later. Im sorry for anything they say or do." She grabbed his hand and shook her head when he asked if she needed anything else. "Nope Im all set. Just ready to go home and curl up on the couch with you."

"You're more than welcome," he said. Jonathan glanced away, feeling his nerves begin to got nutters. Sierra had a lot of people who cared about her. A whole lot. All the more reason for him to be afraid. Yet, all the more reason for him to be comfident in himself. He knew he was more than capable of impressing Sierra's family and proving he was infact a well mannered young man. Jonathan laughed shyly. "It's alright," he reassured. "My father's a but nutters himself." The bou was also curious about her best friend, considering this person was a boy. Sierra sure did know a few boys. Jonathan held her hand and smiled. "Well then, I suppose we should go. Lead the way?"

"My parents and Leo are already waiting at the house for us. We better go catch the train before it leaves us behind." She took his hand and lead him to the train station. When they were finally in a cabin on the train, she lied out beside him and rested her head on his chest. "Dont worry about my family and Leo. They will love you. I know I do." She kissed him softly and fell asleep as the train took its course towards home.

"Oh." He was rather surprised to hear that her family was so eager to see him. Jonathan followed her along onto the train and sat down inside the small comfortable cabin. He stared over at Sierra as she used his shoulder as her own personal head rest. "I'm not worried," he said. "Well-- Maybe just a bit... But I have no doubts that things will go well." Suddenly, Jonathan felt Sierra's lips pressing gently against his own. The young man returned the kiss with passion, then watch as Sierra eventually drift to sleep. He leaned in and kissed her delicate forehead before pulling out one of his books from his bag, and engaging into the novel's story.

Sierra was awakened by the train coming to a stop and groggily sat up. She rubbed the sleep away from her eyes and stood up. "Come on. Mom and dad said they sent a car to pick us up." As they got to the platform, Siera saw that her parents had not sent a car. They sent themselves. "Mom! Dad! What are you guys doing here? I thought we were meeting at the house?" She then felt a hand on her shoulder and pun around, "LEO!" SHe hugged her best friend and giggled with happiness and excitement. "Oh, everyone, this is Jonathan. Jonathan, this is my mom, my dad, and my best friend Leo."

Jonathan was snapped out of his focus state when he felt the train come to an uneasy stop followed by the sound of Sierra's voice. He put his book away back into his bag then stood up along with her. A wave of anxiety veiled him. "T-they already here?" He asked, sounding rather taken aback. He sighed and took a deep breath before following her off the train. When they got off, he didn't see any car but he did spot a bunch of people who shared similar characteristics too Sierra. Were they her family? Apparently Jonathan guessed correctly; he watched Sierra greeted them joyfully and hugged them. It was quite interesting to observe really. Jonathan never really had much of an emotional greeting when he met back with his father. He would usually receive a pat on the back and two would wonder off, talking and smiling. Sure, Jonathan loved his father and father loved him all the same, but they were never really touchy. He was more touchy and loving with his mother. Jonathan quickly straightened up as he heard Sierra introduce him. He felt their curious gazes all resting on him, and it made him feel uneasy. "It's a pleasure to meet you all," he greeted, trying to sound as confident as he could.

Sierra watched as Daddy eyed Jonathan up and down with a tight glare on hsi face. SHe nervously began to chew her hair and realized what she was doing. She spit it ou and watched as her mother quickly pulled Jonathan into a hug, "Welcome to the family." She said. Sierra sighed in relief and smiled. Leo then picked her up and put her on his back, "Woah! Leo!" She giggled and slid back off, "Im gonna walk with Jonathan." She pushed her best friend and walked back over to her boyfriend and took his hand in ehrs. They followed her family to the car and stayed silent the whole way home, which wa quite awkward.
