He dropped me off home, and we landed into the drive way. We were staring at each other again, like it was the first time in years we'd talked. "Um. You can get out now". He said. I took off my seat belt, thanked him, and started walking away. Before I reached my doorway, he asked me what my name was. "Oh, it's Maya". I said, turning away. "Maya", he repeated to me. I nodded and walked into the house. I saw him from the window walking away. I heard my parents walk downstairs to where I was. "Where the hell have you been?" Mom asked, looking angryily at me. I shrugged, and started to walk upstairs to my bedroom, but dad pulled me back. "Answer your mother's question." He said. There was a long pause. I didn't really expect them to worry about me. They're so chill, and it's only 1:30 in the morning. My cerfew's at 1. So, I thought I'd talk to Harry for a bit. "Oh, I told you I was at a party, and I met this guy. I lost track of time". I said. My parents looked at me with their usual look on their faces. It was their "I don't believe you" face. I started to go upstairs again, when mom said something. "You're grounded". She said. I looked at her coldly. "Mom, please. I lost track of time. I was talking to this really hot guy, and I forgot what time it was. It'll never happen again." I said. But she didn't make argument. "You're grounded for 3 months. Give me your phone, and, you're band from going to parties" She said. I was so angry, I went up to my room, and slammed the door. I flipped over my chair. I heard mom yell something from downstairs. "Getting mad won't help you, Maya". She said. I didn't even want to argue with her. I just went to sleep.
The thing I hate most about school is that everywhere you look, kids are making out in the hallway, completly ignoring teachers orders. "Let's go", one teacher said to the couple making out near my locker. The couple looked back at the teacher with a mean look on their faces and walked away. I thanked the teacher, and continued getting things out my locker. Just then, I heard my friends' loud mouths from the other side of the hallway. Their voices got louder and louder as they approached me, and Louis put his hand on my shoulder once they were near me. "Hey guys". I said- still getting things out my locker. Zayn was talking to Liam and Niall about some stupid shit video game thing.... I think. "Seriously, dudes. You've gotta play this game. it's the best." Zayn said. They all turned to look at me, and we stood their in silence for quite some time. Finally, they looked at me up and down. "Hey, why are you so sad?" Liam asked. I shook my head. "It's nothing", I said, trying to walk away. Zayn pulled my arm, and they sat me down in a near by bench. I love my friends. They take care of me. "No, we wanna know". Louis said, rubbing my back. At first, I rejected his hand. But then, I pulled his hand on my back, and started crying. "What's the matter?" Niall asked, worridly. I wiped my tears away, and regained my breath. "Oh My God, I'm grounded again". I said. They all looked at me, and they weren't surpised. They were actually annoyed. "Really Maya?" Louis asked taking his hand off my back. Liam almost walked away, but he came back because he's a good friend. "Sorry, my phone's been taken away, and I can't party for three months". I said. Their eyes turned into a state of annoynce into a state of shock. "THREE MONTHS WITHOUT PARTYING?" Niall asked in his Irish accent, almost yelling. Liam ran his hands through his quiff, and walked around. "Prom is in 3 weeks. How the hell are you supposed to go to prom?" He asked. I shook my head. "I don't know, Liam. I guess I can't now". I said. The bell rang, and the four of them walked away. I sat their on the bench, and burried by hands into my face. "God, what am I supposed to do?" I asked myself. But there was no answer for me. So, I just got up, and went to class.
