I'm Not That Perfect

"Look who it is. Regular Will and Kate over here." Oli Sykes raised his eyebrows. We were about to leave for the European leg of the American Dream Tour and meeting both bands at the airport.
"Were you planning on inviting us to the wedding? Or just going to elope?" Phil teased.
"Fuck you guys." Austin rolled his eyes and laughed. My face was beyond red.
"I always thought Ave had a thing for me." Alan sighed.
"You think every girl has a thing for you." I replied.
"Let's get on then." Oli said shortly. "First stop; Italy."

"Avery! Tu es très belle." My mom cried, answering the door.
"Salut, mére." I smiled, kissing her on both cheeks. "Voici ma copain Austin!"
"Bonjour, Austin." My mom smiled, kissing both his cheeks as well. "Come right in, make yourself at home."
"It's very nice to meet you. I've heard so much about you." Austin blushed. We followed my mom inside and sat down in the living room.
"Bonjour, papa." I said to my father. "This is my friend Austin."
"Wow. Il est assez grand." My dad said.
"Papa!" I laughed, looking at Austin. "He said you're really tall."
"I get that a lot." Austin said, turning pink again. "It's nice to meet you, Mr Rose."
"Call me Sam. Mr Rose was my father." My papa said. "Nice to meet you too, son. Avery, your brothers are here."
"Are they really? I had no idea. Is that awful girl from Berlin?" I asked.
"No. Thank god. Bête poulet." Papa rolled his eyes.
"Leo! John! Chloe!" I yelled, sticking my head into the alcove. "Won't you show some love for your sister?"
"Avery!" My oldest brother Leo called, walking down the stairs. "Salut, belle."
"Merci." I smiled.
"Pas de probleme. Ça va?"
"Bien! Come meet Austin." I pulled him down the stairs and into the living room where Austin and my dad were talking. "This my brother Leo. John! Chloe! God damn it, we have a guest!"
"Sorry, I was getting dressed! I wanted to look nice when your boyfriend got here!" Chloe said, walking down the stairs with John.
"I appreciate the gesture." I smiled.
"So are you, like, officially dating?" Chloe asked.
"Yeah. We wanted to keep it private because we've both got a lot of attention on us but we just kind of went public." I replied.
"But I don't want anyone else." Austin added, squeezing my hand.
"That's so cute! Hey, Austin, could you hook me up with Alan? We could go on double dates. Wouldn't that be fun?" She continued.
"No!" Austin and I said at the same time.
My mom was clueless. "Who is this. . .Alan person?"
"He's in Austin's band, Mére." I shook my head. Way to get with pop culture.
"And you do not like him?" She asked again.
"He's my best friend." Austin said. He looked at Chloe. "And he's too old for you."
"Among other things." I muttered.
"How long are you in town for?" Papa asked.
"Until the weekend. How was Christmas?" I asked.
"Speaking of Christmas, we have your presents!" My mom cried. "Chloe, run and get them."
"I hope we did a good job. You always said you needed a man whose complete wardrobe was from Urban Outfitters-" John started.
"Shut up! You're going to ruin it!" Leo smacked him.
"You all really didn't have to-" Austin said.
"Of course we did." My mom shook her head.
Chloe came back in with several packages and handed them to Austin and I. Austin got a MGMT record, a Timex leather watch and earmuffs. I received a Lana Del Rey record, a knit beanie with spikes, a dreamcatcher, and one of my brother's prints that he drew.
"That's the original, you know. I could sign it and you could sell it for, like, a billion dollars." Leo said when I unwrapped it.
"I think you're getting ten and a billion confused." I shot back. "I'm joking. It's beautiful. I love my artist brother! Thanks, guys. You rock."
"Thank you all very much." Austin grinned.
We stayed a little longer before we had to go; there was a show at night. I'd missed my crazy family and now Austin was a part of it.
