CC's POV

Im eighteen, my name Carly Carter or like everyone else calls me CC. I actually got into Harvard early admission but im not going. Jake said i couldn't go and leave him behind. He didn't get in like he always wanted.

I felt bad so we are going to state together. Just like we do everything.

Jake is my loving boyfriend of two years and he is absolutely perfect. He loves me a lot and always takes care of me. It has been me and my mom for a long time and she loves Jake like a son.

We have known each other since we were ten and he moved next door. Then we went to school together and became best friends. We know each other better then anyone else.

When we were sixteen he asked me to be his girlfriend and i immediately said yes. That was two years ago today. Now we are talking and laughing in his backyard with his entire family and my mom.

Dad (Jake's dad) is at the grill making my favorite grill chicken as an anniversary present. They all surprised me with a party to celebrate. "Babe i'm going to help my dad and talk to him for a bit, stay here." He gave me a peck on the lips before leaving.

My mom takes his spot with a smile. "Having fun sweetie?" I nod looking around. "The best mom, thank you so much." I hug her still in my seat. "Don't thank me. It was all Jake's idea. You know that boy loves you so much CC. You better hold on to him." She smiles fixing my hair.

"I know mom." I respond looking at Jake smiling with his dad. He turns and we locked eyes. He smile widens and he blows me a kiss. I catch it and put it in my lips. We both laugh and turn to look at our parents again.

My mom laughs a little watching us. "Come." She gets up and stretches her hand for me to take. I look at it and shake my head. "No mom i have to stay here." I offer her a tight smile. "Come have fun at your own party. Come on let's dance." She takes my hand pulling me.

"Mom..mom no please let go." My heart pounces against my chest. "Nonsense we are dancing." She drags me to the center of the party. After seven minutes of dancing Jake steps in. "Can i have this dance with my beautiful girlfriend?" He asks my mom. "Of course you can Jake, have fun." She walks away wiggling her eyebrows.

Jake turns to me with a flat expression. A slow dance comes along so he grabs me by the waist pulling me to him. "What did i tell you?" He whispers in my ear smiling at the people nearby. "What?" I ask swallowing.

"You can't be this stupid CC. I told you to stay in your seat but you didn't listen." He starts to put pressure around my waist. "Babe..be you... your hurting me again." I whimper as his fingers start to sink in.

"Don't make it sound like i'm the bad guy here." He tighten his grip. "I throw a party for my girlfriend and all i asked her was to sit down." Tears start to fall from my eyes. I bury my face on his chest so no one sees.

"So imagine how i feel when i turn to see my girlfriend dancing like a whore in front of my entire family." I know I'm gonna have both his hand prints in the sides of my waist tomorrow. "Im sorry." Is all i manage to get out through the tears.

"You really hurt me CC. I just don't want my family to think i would ever marry a slut, I'm doing this for you." He loses his grip from my waist and starts to stroke my hair. I look up at him with a smile. "Did you say you want to marry me?" He flashes his beautiful smile and kisses my forehead. "Of course i do but i can't marry you if you don't behave."

I start to nod my head. "I will, i promise." He cups my cheek so i lean in. "Okay then go to the bathroom to clean your face then come back. Dinner is almost done." He kisses me and softly says. "I love you so much." In my ear.
