Ariah
I felt someone jumping in the bed that jolted me awake. I groaned. As you can tell I hate mornings.

"Whaatt!?" I hollared

"Time to get get up for school sweetheart!" Chris yelled

I rolled off the bed and into the hard wooden floor. I sat up and yawned stretching my back. I got up and went to my clothes on the chair. Chris came behind me and wrapped his arms around my back like I did to him yesterday.

"You look so hot in my clothes." He whispered in my ear.

"I'll wear it more often. Just for you!" I laughed

He went to the kitchen while I got dressed into the clothes I was wearing yesterday.  I walked to the kitchen and hoped up into one of the stools.

"The pancakes smell great !" I said

He turned around with a plate and handed it to me. We ate silently until I almost choked on remembering that I have cheer practice today! I don't know why I joined. I was the captain too! I left my clothes in my locker thank god. We both got to the car. He opened the door for me and ran to the other side. I pulled my bag out of my car and entered the car. He dropped me off on the side of the building. I waved and he smiled. I went to my locker and got to class.
*skipping to last period before lunch*
I wandered around the class when I saw a picture of Chris and a girl laughing. Was he in a relationship? Was I his play toy!? If he had a girlfriend why does he have interest in me? I sat in my seat and was looking through my feed. I was tagged in a lot of pictures. One caught my eye. It was a fan page. I clicked on it and it brought me to a picture of me and Chris in the car a couple hours ago. It said "I ship it so much! #Chariah all the way!" What the hell!? Then a lot of messages came in.

Unknown- I know about you and Mr. Collins better watch your back

This shits messed up! All of my feed was now #chariah... It wasn't a bad ship name but really he's my TEACHER! When Chris came in I walked to his desk.

" we need to talk" I said

"What's up baby?"

"Everyone knows."

"What!?"

My eyes teared. I love Chris but it's illegal he can be put in jail because of me. I wouldn't be able to take the guilt!

" I think we need a break" I finally said regretting it

"I won't stop loving you" he smiled

"I won't either, but it's for the best." I smiled weakly

I turned away and was in mid-step when he grabbed my wrist and spun me around. He pulled me into a bear hug. It was what I was expecting. Perfect. I had a tear fall. He rubbed my back and then I let go. He did too. He wiped the tear off my check then I walked to my seat. The whole day was a blur because all I thought about was him. It was after school and I went to the locker room. I changed and went to the gym. We did our thing and then practice ended short for me. The abrupt enterance of Chris. He was wearing a hoodie and sunglasses. He grabbed my wrist and pulled me out. I waved bye to everyone. They didn't seem to care though. To be expected. When we made it to his car he just started to talk gibberish.

"Woah calm down what happened?" I asked

"I can't do it Ariah! I love you and I hate not being able to see you  or not being able to not show my love for you! My day has been shitty knowing we are over. I need you in my life. I can't not have you in it! Please Ari I'm so broken without you." He cried.

"Ugh this sucks Ass!" I yelled and I punched the dashboard.

" I love you but I don't wanna be the reason for you in jail being called a sex offender! I wish we weren't in this position" I was crying by now.

He hugged me and rocked us. Shushing me. When I was breathing proberly he drove us to my house to pick up my stuff. I basically am never home because I'm hated there so much. I get blamed for mom and Jenny leaving. So we've decided to live together. Not the best idea but I hate my home. We parked the car in my driveway and I sneaked into the house. Dad was sleeping as usual. So I got into my room successfully. I gathered my stuff and shoved it into my bag. I creeped out and into the hallway when my dad stood at the end blocking my exit.

"And what are YOU doing ?" He yelled

" I'm going out with some friends dad" I said

" no you're not your leaving me!" He bellowed.

I zipped passed him and ran through the door. I ran into the car and slammed the door breathlessly.

"You okay?" Chris asked

I nodded quickly and he sped off. When we got to his house I unpacked my stuff. I had such little items of clothing it barley made half of his closet. He decided that we go clothes shopping so he drove us to the galleria and we shopped for a couple hours then returned home. I got such cute stuff I was confident that no one would recognize me. I had spare money so I went to get my hair dyed. I dyed it aburn red. It was hard to see myself like this instead of my brunette hair I had before. I got home around 8. I finished my homework when Chris came home from going to the gym. He jumped when he saw me.

"Oh baby it's you I thought someone broke into the house!" He chuckled.

"Do you like it?" I spun around in my new outfit.

(If you wanna know it was a Nike half shirt with a sports bra and yoga pants)

"Love it" he said

I made dinner tonite. So basically it was easy-Mac and cheese with chicken cutlets. It was Friday so I had to make a new YouTube video. Since it's thanksgiving break (time flies I know😂) next week I decided to do a thanksgiving theme.

"Chris wanna be in my video?" I asked

"I don't know... The last time I made a video was in 2015" he sighed

"Cmon Chrissy!" I whined

"Alright alright!" He sneered playfully

We started the video of Q&A. When a really shocking question came in.

"Are you and Chris dating? #chariah" I read

My cheeks went red and I looked at Chris.

"Yes we are! It's almost our 3 month anniversary" he cheered and I left out a sigh of relief.

We ended the video. I editors then I posted it. I looked at Chris's Instagram. It had 25k followers before the video now it has 900k! Jesus! I felt really drowsy so I decided to hit the sack. So did Chris so we got into our PJs and snuggled into bed.
