Anxious and nervous are good words describe what I feel right now, if it was multiplied by 100. Harry's mom and sister were on the way to the house right now to surprise Pen for her birthday. No matter how many times Harry has tried to comfort me and tell me not to worry about anything, I can't help but feel an intense amount of anxiety coursing through my body.

It's easy to say I have a bit of PTSD after meeting Monica, if someone that isn't even blood related to Harry reacted like that, I can only imagine how his mom and sister will react once they find out we're dating.

"Anastasia, I can see you overthinking over there." Harry raised an eyebrow at me, stirring the cup of coffee in his hand. I shook my head and tried to play it off with a shaky chuckle.

"I'm trying my best." I nodded slowly, trying to take deep breathes to calm my breathing. It's safe to say nothing was working. Harry walked to me, placing his mug on the counter and cupping my face in his hands. He placed a kiss to my forehead and stayed there for a few seconds before finally pulling away.

"I know you're nervous. They're going to love you, you'll see." He smiled at me, stroking my cheeks with his thumbs softly. His phone started to ring in his pocket, and my eyes widened. As if my heart wasn't racing enough, I feel like I'm about to pass out. Harry answered his phone quickly walking to the front door.

I assume they're here now, I followed behind him from a distance, letting him open the door and greet his family.

"Harry!!" Two voices shouted at the same time. Harry chuckled and opened the door wider, two women stood at the door, their arms instantly wrapped around Harry.

"Hi Mum, Gemma. Missed you both so much." Harry muttered, squeezing them tightly in his arms. "Come in, come in. There's someone I want you to meet." Harry ushered them inside, grabbing the two suitcases they had.

My eyes finally met theirs and their eyes lit up. Instantly the older woman, I'm assuming his mom, wrapped her arms around me.

"You must be, Anastasia." She pulled away from me with a large grin. "Harry has told us so much about you, it's great to finally meet you." Her voice was soft and tender. In that moment, all my nerves and worries were gone.

"It's great to finally meet you as well, Mrs.-" I was instantly hushed, she insisted I called her Ann and didn't want any formalities.

"I'm Gemma, Harry's sister." Gemma smiled at me, also giving me a tight hug, "He never shuts up about you." She whispered softly into me ear, making me blush.

"All good things I hope." I laughed nervously.

"Of course, Mum, Gemma, I'd like to formally introduce Anastasia as my girlfriend." I scrunched my nose slightly at his words and looked at them nervously, their expressions never changed and they even let out a laugh.

"Harry, darling please. We already knew that." Mum laughed. "From the way you talked about her we knew, instantly. I'm happy for you love, for both of you." She grinned pulling both of us into his arms for another hug.

My face hurt from how big I was smiling, it felt so good to be accepted and welcomed by Harry's family. I knew I had nothing to worry about.

"Here, we'll put your stuff in the guest room, go get comfortable. The kids are taking a nap but they'll be awake soon. We've gotta get ready for the party." I smiled at them, grabbing one of the suitcases while Harry grabbed the other.

"See, nothing to worry about at all." Harry grinned once we placed their bags in my old bedroom. I let out a deep sigh and nodded my head.

"They seem really sweet, I can't wait to get to know them more." I smiled at him.

"Well they'll be here for two weeks, so there will be plenty of time for that, don't worry." Harry grabbed a hold of my hand, walking back to the living room.

"The parties in a 2 hours, everything's pretty much down." Harry said to them.

"Yeah, we can see that. You really went all out this year, huh." Gemma laughed referring to the many different decorations that was hung around the house.

"It's a big birthday! You should've heard some of the stuff she was asking for, this is the bare minimum to her." I chuckled. "I'm gonna go finish setting up the backyard, you guys catch up!" I smiled at them, kissing Harry on the cheek before scurrying off to let them have some family time.

As soon as Anastasia was out the door, mum and Gemma's eyes were instantly on mine. I laughed at their eagerness to know what all the details are.

"Stop looking at me like that you idiots." I chuckled, shaking my head at their actions.

"Oh come on! We just wanna know about the woman that's got you all happy and smiley." Mom raised her eyebrow at me, a small smirk played on her lips. "So spill." She pushed even further.

"Okay! Okay!" I surrendered, raising my hands up in defense. "She's amazing.." I finally sighed, sitting myself between Gemma and mum, both of their bodies turned to me, giving me their complete attention.

"She makes me.. feel things again. Things I haven't felt since Danielle died.. Things not even Danielle made me feel." I admitted, "She's kind, she's caring, she's understanding, patient. She's amazing. I never thought I could be so comfortable with a woman like this again, never thought I would be so open to moving on and finding someone besides Dani." I glanced at mum, she interlocked her hand into mine and gave it a tight squeeze.

"To be quite honest, when I first met Anastasia I had no idea it would lead to this. Sure I thought she was attractive, but I never thought I would end up falling in love with her." I smiled to myself. "Sure, it's only been a few months, it's still pretty early in the relationship. But you guys, I really think this is it for me." I said. Gemma had a small smile on her face, yet her eyes were watering.

"What?" I asked her, frowning at her tears. She just shook her head and let out a small laugh.

"My kid brother's all grown up." She sighed, leaning her head down onto my shoulder. "Harry, I'm gonna be honest with you. When you first told us about Anastasia, I was skeptical. I didn't want you jumping into anything too soon, I couldn't bear to see you get hurt again so soon." She spoke softly. "But meeting Anastasia.. and seeing you so happy. I believe every word you just said. You're smart, you're grown, you are fully aware and capable of making your own decisions. We trust you, we know how hard it's been this past year adjusting to everything." Gemma's voice trailed off slightly.

"We are so incredibly proud of you. You have overcome so much, all while taking care of your kids. You are the best dad. The best son. The best brother." Gemma lifted her head and locked her eyes onto mine. "And right now, you are the happiest I've ever seen you. Ever. And it's because of her." Gemma lifted her hand and pointed out the window to Anastasia who was placing centerpiece decorations to the tables in the backyard. "It's never too soon to find happiness, Harry." Gemma smiled.

"She's right, love." Mum's voice ripped my attention away from Anastasia and back into the room. "You look well and happy. You've changed, but in the best way possible. This is your life and your family. If she makes you happy, then we will support you no matter what. Besides, I love her already." Mum laughed, standing up from her spot on the couch and walking towards the back door to help Anastasia.

"I'm serious, Harry." Gemma said, also standing up to follow mom. "She's good for you. I think you're good for her too." She smiled.

The party went fantastically, thankfully Monica started no drama with Anastasia. Not that I would let her, she would be kicked off the property immediately. It was late now, everyone was in bed, knocked out. Anastasia finally walked out of our bathroom and made her way into our bed and into my arms.

"Thank you for putting the party together, Anastasia." I kissed her forehead softly. "It was perfect. I love you so much." I said lowly, she hummed and kissed my lips softly.

"It's my pleasure, I'm glad everything went well. Today was a good day." She snuggled her head onto my chest, wrapping her arms around my torso. "Harry?" Her voice was soft.

"Yes, my love?" I asked, pulling her even closer to my body.

"Sing me a song?" Her question made me chuckle, such a sweet and innocent request.

"For you? Always." I laughed, placing a small kiss to her head before singing softly under my breathe until I could hear her soft snores.
