Jack and the reader getting matching pajamas for a family photoshoot with Jacks family (maybe early stages of their relationship.)
A/N : It was supposed to be something short and simple, but once I started I couldn’t stop and now well, see for yourself Lmao I took it places it shouldn’t have but oh well 🤷🏻♀️ enjoyyyy 💕
It was always nerve wracking meeting your significant other's families and close friends, but it was more nerve-wracking when you were going home with your significant other for the holidays. It’s more intimate and it makes you know this was the right path into being in a serious relationship.
You and Jack have been dating almost a year now, even though you had already met his parents, grandparents, his brother and his close friends- the one’s that matter that is- it was still worrisome because it wasn’t just any holiday, it was Christmas Eve and if this isn’t as serious as it gets, you don’t know what was.
“Baby, seriously, relax.” Jack rubs at your shoulders, “You’ve met them all before and they love you.”
You sigh, “I know but I've never done the whole family picture thing.” you lift the pants to show him, “Nor the matching pajamas.”
“It’s just a picture and clothes.” he shrugs.
You raise your eyebrows at him, “It’s not and you know it. Unless you do this yearly with every other girl you bring home.” You shrug “I’ve heard the stories, thank you Grams Harlow.”
Jack chuckles, “Look at you showing your jealous side, I like it.” you roll your eyes and swat his arm, “Nothing to worry about baby, I promise you it’s just my parents and Clay, but also remind me to have a word with my grandmother, she needs to be on my team and tell you how much of a good guy I am.”
You snort, “She loves me more.”
There’s a quick knock to Jack’s childhood bedroom door, “She’s right you know?” his grandma yells, “I’m team YN, and if you ever hurt her, I’ll hunt you down.”
Jack shakes his head, “I believe you grams.” he goes to open the door for his grandma.
“Good” she nods and faces you. “Come on, Maggie and I did something and we want to know what you think of it.”
“Grandma, you can’t steal my girlfriend from me.”
You smile and head towards her, “It’s okay, I’m stealing her from you.”
Jack's mother and grandmother had made you hot chocolate, but just not any hot chocolate. It was your entire childhood, chocolate abuelita. They definitely made you feel all kinds of emotions since your grandmother would always make it for you during the cold weathers or the holidays.
“Is it good? Jackman called your grandma for us and she gave us some steps to follow.” Maggie asks you.
You blow on the mug, take a sip and sigh. “Oh yeah, this is definitely good.” You smile, “You ladies did a wonderful job.”
Making hot chocolate shouldn’t be a big deal to make right? Well in this case, not everyone makes their chocolate abuelita the same, some just add milk or water. But your grandma? She adds a whole lot of other things that make it one hundred times better.
“Alright.” Clay announces, “Let’s get this photoshoot out of the way.”
Maggie raises her eyebrows at her youngest “What’s the rush?”
“Jack wants to keep Y/N tradition of watching movies and playing board games. Apparently she does this with her siblings and parents.”
You blush and throw a glance to Jack, “We’re in your parents home, I have no problem doing things differently. Let’s have Christmas the Harlow’s way.”
Jack shakes his head “You’ll regret that.”
“JACKMAN.” Both his mom and grandmother yell.
You chuckle and take another sip of your hot chocolate.
Clay then whispers in your ear “We sing carols all night long, so let’s do Christmas your way.” He looks at you with a pleading look.
You shake your head, “We compromise.”
“Excellent idea.” Maggie says. “We’ll take the photos, then before each movie we sing our songs.”
Both Clay and Jack glare at you, “That sounds like a great idea.” You stand up and grab Jack’s hand, “Come on, let’s take these pictures.”
You guys spend over two hours taking pictures, only because Jack and Clay kept whining about their spots in each set.
Urban was getting annoyed, simply because he had his girlfriend- your best friend, waiting for him back at his apartment. He wanted out immediately and he kept throwing glances your way to help him out.
“Okay, I think we got plenty of pictures.” You say, “Urban has plans and we’re sort of keeping him from them.”
Maggie gasps, “Oh my, I’m sorry son, why didn’t you bring her with you?”
Jack, Clay and yourself chuckle while Urban goes red in the face “W-who?”
Maggie raises her eyebrows, “You think I don’t know all about you and miss trouble maker? Y/N’s best friend?”
Urban scratches his neck “I- I didn’t think I could bring her over.”
“URBAN WYATT.” Jack’s grandmother snaps, “How long have we known you? Aht, don’t answer that, you bring over whoever is keeping you company. You are family end of the story.”
You smile and feel a tug to your hand. You look to your left and notice Jack is pointing to the hallway.
You follow him quickly “Jack, we’re not having sex while your family is out there getting ready to sing Christmas songs.”
Jack chuckles, “That’s later tonight baby.” He wraps his hands around your waist and pulls you in close, giving you a few pecks.
You look up at him, feel him getting hot and fidgeting. “What’s going on?”
“I have a surprise for you, but I don’t know how you’ll react.”
You furrow your eyebrows, “Okay?”
“This is our first Christmas together.” He starts.
He takes a deep breath, “I love you, there’s no denying that.”
You smile, “I love you too.”
You cut him off immediately “But? But what?What’s going on right now?” You push back and lean against the wall.
Jack goes wide eyed “Babe no.” He goes up to you. “This isn’t a breakup speech.”
“Can you just tell me then?”
“You told me you always spent Christmas with your family, even with your busy schedule, you would make time to go be with them.” He says.
You nod, letting him continue “So if this relationship is going to work, we both have to put one hundred. I don’t like the fifty-fifty, it’s all in or nothing. So, I called your brothers and they immediately said yes.”
You start getting emotional, “Y-yes to what?”
He smiles “We’re spending Christmas Eve here, and tomorrow morning we’re going to your family. I know for you it’s traditional to celebrate on the 24th but since we’re here, I couldn’t change it last minute.”
“Babe.” You whisper and shake your head. “What about your family?”
“They understand and it was actually moms idea. I couldn’t keep you away from your siblings. I know how much they mean to you.”
You jump on him immediately and start peppering him with kisses. “Wait.”
“You’re going to spend Christmas with my family?”
“Sooo, you’re going to Mexico with me to be with my family-my entire family?”
You chuckle “Oh they are going to eat you alive gringo.”
“Wait what? I’ve met your dad and brothers.” He asks, confused.
You nod, “Yeah but all my tíos and cousins will be there. You’re meeting the entire family.”
“N-nooo, your brothers didn’t mention any of that.”
You smile, “Baby, we’re Mexican, there’s a tío and cousin in each corner. Plus, the 25th is usually a recalentado and drinking, so my entire family will definitely be there. This is why I make sure I’m there on the 24th, only spend it with my parents and siblings.”
Jack nods, takes a deep breath “I can handle that.”
“Are you sure? We can back out.”
He shakes his head “We’re going, plus, I need to meet all of your family if I plan on marrying you one day.”
“I- you can’t say things like that and not mean it.” You glare at him and start walking back to the living room.
“I do mean it.” He stops you at the entrance of the hallway, “I promise you, I’m going to make you my wife one day and then we’ll have mini versions of us running around the house wanting to bake cookies and cakes because you make the best desserts ever.”
You let the tears flow, “I’m going to hold you to that.”
“It’s a promise, now look up.” He says, and you notice the mistletoe hanging there. “Give your future husband and baby daddy a kiss.”
You chuckle and do just that.
It wasn’t an easy road, but Jack definitely kept his promise and you were the happiest person on planet earth.
