Connor McDavid #97 - Edmonton Oilers (R)
This imagine is for the awesome rachlove32, I hope you enjoy it!
My palms were sweating, there were butterflies in my stomach, and I was biting my nails.
OK, maybe I'm a little nervous. The thing is, I'm not even doing something extremely fancy, like a wedding. Oh god no. I'm just meeting my boyfriend's parents. Nothing that serious, right.
No.
But it's the family that I'm meeting that is making me nervous. My boyfriend is Connor McDavid. That's right, THE Connor McDavid, and his parents are amazing. Everyone loves them for making Connor exist!
Yeah, so that's why I'm nervous.
I'm checking myself over in front of the mirror when Connor comes in the room. Somehow, he can tell I'm nervous, and snakes his arms around my waist.
He says "You don't need to be nervous Rachal, my parents already love you."
"How can they love me if they never met me?"
"I talk about you all the time."
"Am I really that exciting of a topic to talk about?"
"Of course you are! You are my amazing , smart, talented, beautiful girlfriend. Who wouldn't want to talk about you?!?!?" As he kept rambling on and on.
"Damn. I feel special!" I laughed
He laughed with me, kissed my cheek, and said "Let's go!"
The drive was only about half an hour, and before I knew it, we were at his house.
I took a deep breath as we were walking in, and his Mom was at the door to greet us.
"Hello Connor!" she smiled, happy to see her son. She looked at me, hopefully in a good way, and said "You must be Rachal! Connor talks about you all the time!"
I looked at Connor, and he was blushing like a mad man! Because I am a nice person, I won't annoy him about it when we get home. Sense the sarcasm.
"Hello ma'am! It is so nice to finally meet you!"
"You can call me Kelly!"
We walked to the table, and I saw Connor's dad standing there waiting for him.They hugged each other, then his father looked at me. He said "You must be my son's girlfriend Rachal! It is so nice to finally meet you!"
"It is great to meet you too sir!"
"Oh please, call me Brian."
After that, we sat down to have dinner. Kelly is such a good cook! Maybe even better than my mom. (Don't tell her that) Anyways, we were making casual small talk, bringing up the casual questions, and I answered them all like a pro. I know that sounds like I'm cocky, but don't judge me. I'm usually shitty at this "social" stuff. I told them things like how I actually work for the Oilers (as an athletic therapist), where we first met, and just random stuff about my life. We ended up being there for 3 hours!
Once we were all done, all 4 of us walked to the door, getting ready to say our goodbyes. His parents turned to me and said "Rachal, we really like you. You are a responsible, fun, mature, young woman. We approve of you and wouldn't want anyone else for our boy Connor."
I smiled in relief, thanking anyone that would care in my mind.
"Please don't ever hurt him Rachal. " His mom said to me.
"Mom!" He replied, a little upset.
"Connor, it's fine. Brian, Kelly, I promise that I won't ever hurt your son. He is one of the best guys I have ever met, and would be an idiot to lose him. If I love him, amd he loves me, then we are great!" I finally spoke, on almost one breath.
His parents were grinning like madmans, and his father finally said one final thing before we left. I know it was meant for Connor, but I couldn't help but overhear.
"Don't lose her Connor, she's a keeper."
That made my heart swell on the inside. They approved of me. THANK GOD. Imagine how bad that could have been if they hated me... Actually, don't imagine that, let's think positive after that accomplishment.
We got into the car, and Connor started driving. We just made some small talk anout random things. The usual thing for us.
Once we got in the house, we immediately changed because we were so tired. It was only 9 PM FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. We both have practice in the morning, but still. Both of us got in bed, and almost fell asleep the minute we laid down. But right before I fell asleep Connor said one thing that made me know my love for him was real.
"Thank you for being the love of my life Rachal."
It is 2 am here in Canada, so I will male a proper ending author's note when I am actually somewhat awake.
This was for rachlove32, I hoped you enjoy it!
