Michael's POV

It's been a weeks now and with both our parents keeping a close eye us it's been really hard for Ocean and I to spend time together. We still get to see each other at school and the few times I've sneaked over to her room. But It's the weekends  that are the hardest normally we'd spend the whole weekend together just hanging out but Joseph got me a job working at his friends store on weekends. I know he's only doing this to please my mother he didn't and still doesn't really care what Ocean and I did it was more the fact we got caught that pissed him off.

I'm stood waiting by the lockers for Ocean to come and the bell has gone, it's weird she's not here yet since her father now drives her and he always drops her at school early so he's not late for work. I get a text bringing me from my thoughts

From: Ocean
Hey baby, Not feeling good so won't be in school today X

I sigh looking down at my phone. Then start heading to my class. I'm just about to open the door and my phone beeps again

From: Ocean
Will be home alone all day ;)

I smile to myself and quickly sneak out of the school before anybody see's me.

Ocean's POV

I manage to sneak the day off school today. My mothers visiting friends out of town and my father and Sherri are working so nobody's gonna be home until later. I wanted to tell Michael earlier but my father was watching outside until Michael left for school before he went outside. Michael and I are still sneaking around. even things have calmed down at home and my family is actually speaking to me. We don't really want to push it. Our parents have even started getting along again (well smiling politely if they see each other).

My thoughts are broken when I hear knocking on my backdoor. I smile to myself and rush over. I open the door and before I can speak Michael crashes his lips against mine leading us both inside. "You miss me?" I giggle breaking away "like crazy" he smiles pecking my lips. "I missed you too" I smile and we head into the living room.

As were cuddling up on the sofa And Michael sighs "you ok?" I smile and he stokes the side of my face with his thumb. "Mhm, I just wish we just be together without having to sneak around like this, trying catch little moments together" I pull him back close to me "and someday we will be" I reassure him "we just have to be patient" I say laying my head on his chest. He lifts my head up so I'm facing him and kisses me softly. As our kiss starts to deepen Michael's phone beeps. He breaks away reading the message looking confused at the screen. "Everything ok?"

"That was LaToya, she said my mother wants me to come straight home today because they need to talk to me about something"

"You don't think they saw you come here so you?" I panic and he shakes his head "I parked my car around the corner and came around the back of the house" he sighs looking at the ground "which means you have to leave now?" He nods pursing his lips.

Michael's POV

When I get home my mother and LaToya are already laying out the dinner table which is weird because we don't normally eat until later "did you need to speak to me about something?" I ask walking into the dining room "we've invited some friends over tonight" LaToya smiles laying the table "what friends?" I ask confused "well we've noticed you've been feeling down a lot recently after..." She pauses for a moment "we thought it would be nice for you to meet someone knew" she smiles through pursed lips. I'm about to say something and the door knocks. I'm standing in the dining room and mother comes back "Michael, you remember the Morrison's" I smile and greet them politely. I haven't seen them since I was about 6 an I have a really strange feeling about it. Why would they just turn up after all these years?. "And of course Emma, you two were so sweet they way you always used to play together" my mother giggles to herself. That's not quite how I remember it but I smile politely an nod.
