I have gone completely mad. Taking Dylan to meet my parents for the weekend. That was such a...couple-ish thing to do. Not like us at all. The more I think about it, the more I realize how much like a couple we do act.
It was worth it though, seeing my parents welcome him into their home like that. Honestly, all I wanted was for him to be happy. For him to realize that, no matter what happened with his other side of the family, he wasn't alone. It wasn't the same, no. But there are people in the world that care about him. People like my parents who have already told me how much they adore him. He has Thundereagle too. And I'm sure his sister would never turn her back on him. And he'll have the baby, soon enough. And...he has me. It's not love. It's not. But I do care about him. A lot.
The only thing that I'd been nervous about the entire time was explaining everything to them. Yes, we're having a baby together. No we aren't getting married, nor do we plan on taking that course of action. We aren't even together. Not in that sense anyway. But it was silly of me to think they'd mind. They've always just wanted me to be happy, no matter what it took.
And I am happy. Happier than I've ever been. That's what scares me the most.
Now...what to do with the ridiculous amount of sweets my mum sent back with me?
It's strange, starting to pack everything away. I've only been teaching here a year and it already feels like a strange sort of home. Actually, if I'm honest, the strangest thing about this is it will be the first time in a long time that I won't be working with Haus. It's the end of an era, I suppose. An era that I'm not sure I'll miss very much.
At any rate, I've realized that I've been lax on assigning homework this past week. Don't expect that to last. Especially as exams are around the corner.
