Brooke pov
There stood Mom, clutching her purse and house keys. Marko looked at her and smiled. "Brooklynn, would you like to explain what I just walked into?" I couldn't form words, I opened my mouth, but nothing came out. "Well then, How about your friend leave, and we'll have a chat," she said and smiled at Marko as he looked down at his feet.

Mom walked to the kitchen, and Marko got dressed. "Look, I'm sorry about this; I knew we should have hung out at the cave," Marko said as he put his boots on. I looked at him, "so the others can see me naked," I whispered. "Look here, missy, don't be having an attitude with me," he said, stood up, and grabbed my waist. We looked at each other until mom cleared her throat and Marko let go of my abdomen.

"I'll be leaving," he said, pecked my lips, and whispered, "Call me about what happens; love you" I glared at him and slapped his chest; he laughed as he walked outside. "You know, Brooke, I trusted you to have a boy over when no one is home, and I don't want to come home to my daughter drinking and partly naked." She continued, "I thought you would know better than that."

"Mom, we played truth or dare, drank some alcohol, and it was getting to us."

"Who was that boy anyway?" she asked,

"Marko, the guy I was talking to on the phone when Max had dinner with us," I explained.

"Are you dating that boy?" I looked up at her and said.

"I don't know, we act like it, but we never really talked about it." she walked over and sat on the coffee table in front of me.

"Your punishment is that you're going to work with me for three days, open to close," she announced. I looked up, "mom, please, no, You can lock me up in this house for three days instead of working for three days." I begged; she shook her head, "Brooklynn, no, that is your punishment." I groaned and walked up to my room; hopefully, Marko would be at the cave by now.

I pulled my phone off my side table, sat it on my bed, and dialed his number. The phone rang until Dywaye spoke, "Hello?"

"Hey, it's Brooke. Can you put Marko on the phone?" I heard his name through the cave until he asked, "Hello,"

"Hey," I sighed,

"Is everything ok?" he asked,

"No, I'm working three days at my mom's work." he groaned, only deeper and raspy on the phone.

"Those three nights, me and the boys will come and bring you take-out for dinner."

"Thanks, I'm going to head to bed; goodnight, I love you." I smiled,

"ok, dollface, I love you too, goodnight." We hung up the phone. I lay back; mom opened my door and grabbed my phone. "What!" I yelled.

"I heard you were talking to him; this is a part of your punishment; no talking to him," she said and walked out of my room with my phone in her hand.
