"Stop here." Y/N tells Armie as they come to the stop sign near her house. "Thank you." She pressed a quick kiss to his lips. "For driving me and-" She kisses him again.

"Go!" He tells her with a chuckle, a hand on her arm.

"Bye!" She jumps out of the car and runs down the street to her house.

Y/N swings the door open, and her parents are waiting with their arms crossed over their chests, jaws set. "Where the hell have you been?!" Her father spat as soon as she walked through the door. "Do you have any idea what time it is?!"

"I'm sorry. I can explain." Her shoulders dropped.

"No phone call, no text! And who was that dropping you off at the stop sign?!" Her mother pressed.

"That looked like Armand's car." Her father questioned, stepping closer.

"I-"

"Do not lie to me!" Anger was clear on his face.

"Fine!" Y/N rolled her eyes. "Yes, I was with Armie, okay?!"

"Why the hell were you alone with a grown man?!" Her dad's voice grew. "Are you crazy?!"

"It's not what you think!" She opened her backpack and handed her father a stack of papers.

He looked down at the papers in his hands then back to Y/N. "What are these?" He began going through them. "Are these college applications?"

She nodded. "Yes." She took a breath. "He's been helping me apply. He helped me choose which I wanted to apply to and then we went through each application." Her father handed the papers to her mom. "You said to pay attention to him and that he could help. That he was smart and to take note. I figured he could help." She shrugged. "We lost track of time and didn't want it to seem weird, him dropping me off so late. I told him to drop me off at the stop sign. I didn't want him to get in trouble for helping me."

"Y/N," Her father's voice softened. "He can help you. I didn't know he was doing all of this."

She shoved the papers back into her bag. "He showed me where he went to college and helped me apply for all these scholarships. Scholarships I didn't even know they had. And gave me all kinds of essay pointers for the applications. This dude is like my own private college application hack."

Her father gave a chuckle. "I'm glad you are figuring things out." He kisses her forehead. "Next time just call and let us know where you are. And maybe don't put yourself in a position that looks so bad."

"Yeah, sweetheart. He is an adult and you are still in highschool. It doesn't look propper." Her mother added.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to worry the two of you." She gave a nod.

"Just make sure you don't get in the way of him working either. Okay?"

"Yes, sir." She hugged her dad before going into her room.

The next morning Armie was sitting in his office, focused on his computer screen when he heard a tap on his half open office door. He looked to the door to see Y/N's father walk in with a stern look on his face. "Hello, Armand." He walks in.
