I got off work at 10, it's Friday night. I climb into Alex's jeep and and give him a kiss on the cheek. "I'm starving" I sigh. "Wanna get someone Chinese food and go home and watch a movie or two?" He says then kisses my forehead. I smile and nod. Okay so I may have left out a thing or two in my introduction. I live alone. I'm an independent 16 year old. My boyfriend Alex is everything I could ever need. Without him and his family's support I would be on the streets right now. I may only be 16 but but I had to grow up and mature at a young age with dad walking out on us when I was 7 and mom dying last summer. Alex is 17, me and him have been dating for a little less then a year. I've known him for 2 years but when I met him I was dating Kyle. When my mom died Alex and I were just friends, but his mom took me in. With me moving in we started hanging out more then feelings came in. Now almost a year later here we are, still going. (We started dating a month and a half after mom passed.) once I saved enough money with the help of Alex I moved into my own house. I moved out because I wanted my own space and I felt like it was too much for Alex's mom with her 4 other kids. His mom is still there for me like she's my own mom and I'm still over there a lot but I felt like I was just one more mouth for her to feed, So I felt better leaving. And Alex practically lives with me. Ok, okay. Back to reality. I guess I fell asleep in the jeep on the way home because I opened my eyes to see Alex eating. He's so cute, he had wrapped me up in a blanket, and adjusted himself so my head was on his lap. I whine and wrap my arms around Alex's waist. "What?" He looks down at me. "Food" I grunt. He just laughs "your so cute. You know that?" I sit up and nod then give him a kiss before he can take another bite of food. He hands me a fork and my container then turns on the XBox for Netflix. "American horror story please" half an hour later me and Alex are curled up in my bed. My heads on his chest and he's almost asleep. I look up at him and he's looking down at me, "what?" I whisper "nothing" he smiles. * the next morning * I wake up and Alex is gone, "UGH!" I grunt. Yesterday may have been a good day with him but lately our relationships been rocky
