Except one thing she mets this new boy at her school she really likes...
I've been waiting for this for a long time it's finally Christmas Eve the one day I can spend time with Ethan I can't in Christmas because my
family I can't miss that that's one of my favorite time of the year and his parents are flying in so he'll be with them plus I think he'll like his gift I hope he's does at-least still wanna know what he got me
Better be something good but not basic I'm a lot of things but I'm a basic bitch or it better not be anything I already have but it's the thought that counts.. but I swear to god if it's cheap ima - Anyways in my I bedroom wrapped his present my mom came in to check up on me
' hey sweatie' she says ' hello mother ' I said ' who's gift is that?' ' just a friend' ' and friend? It's not milo you gave him his gift already?'
' another friend' 'Ethan isn't it?' She asked holy crap I think she's on to me I'm not going to lie but I can't tell her the truth
' why would it be Ethan' 'Because he's your boyfriend' my eyes widen I very surprised I looked at her she chuckles
' honey you think I didn't know it's completely obvious I knew you liked him from the start'. She said
' I'm not dating Ethan ' cough cough liar cough cough
' Nala there's no reason to lie I know I'm you're mother I know things when I think you don't'. She said
Damnmit
' okay if he was would you find with it considering he's not African?' She say on the bed with me
' I don't care as long as that patron makes you happy and you truly love them plus it can create a new bloodline' she says ' how long have you known?' Id asked ' since after you your little dance you are glowing you had a look that you are in love'
Me in love with Ethan? Love is a strong word I do more then like him I'll do anything for him he's my lavender what if I'm in love? How do I handle that? I'm young love isn't easy what if it breaks we fall apart if did fall apart will we come back are strong enough?
' I do really like him mom he makes me happy ' I said ' he does?' ' yes he does, and I think Im in love him' I said I never said those for words out loud before I love him but is it enough? Will it be enough?
She smiles at me ' I'm happy for you sweetheart' she kisses my head and leaves the room I finish wrapping his gift thinking I have A-lot of thinking to do right now
At Ethan house I arrived his aunt Cas let me in I waited on the coach still thinking hoe I said I am love with him to my mom know what I should just focus on our Christmas Eve gifts
