Hope you liked the last chapter.

We had reached our apartment, so I took out the key. That reminded me to tell mum give Lucas the spare key.

As soon as I opened the door a sweet smell of apple hit my nose. Apple turnover is my favourite dessert, that I only got on a special occasion.

It wasn't my birthday, it wasn't Christmas so mum was trying to bribe me.

I stared at Lucas and whispered to him "She's trying to bribe me if I start falling for it say my name." He just nodded.

"Hello," she smiled at us.

"Don't hello me you've got some explaining to do," I told her strictly. My hand were on my hips meaning I was very serious.

"You do not talk to me like that, I am your mother. I am trying to help you have a future," she replied using the mother card.

"You could have at least told me about Lucas. It going to be weird living with a boy, that goes to my school and is my bodyguard." I was not giving up.

"Technical you aren't living with him. I didn't tell you about him because you would fight me against the idea." She wasn't backing down either. I know who I got my stubbornness from.

"Yeah well you should be happy we get along. If you had told me about Lucas we wouldn't be in this argument. If I wanted to have arguments I would be living with Dad." I was using guilt now. That's why I want to study Law in University.

"You do not bring your father into this." She didn't like it when we talked about Dad.

"It's probably why Lucas is here. Dad just has to have enemies. People are looking for me cause he's my Dad."I was getting frustrated. I needed some time alone.

"You know it's not your Father's fault." She never let me say bad things about Dad.

"Everything is his fault. Stop trying to protect him. You know he's moved on. He is a f*cking bastard and I hate him. The only reason I have a bodyguard now is because of him."

"You will never call your father that again. I also don't care if he has moved on. I have my own family." She always got sad when she thinks about my brothers.

"I am really sorry. Can I have an apple turnover to go? I'm going to Starbucks at 4:50 with Lucas. I am staying at the dorm tonight." I always let mum win. It was easier.

While mum and I were arguing Lucas helped himself to an apple turnover and started texting. When I mentioned Lucas's name he stopped texting and looked at me.

"Huh?" he looked confused

"Get changed we're going in 5 minutes," I told him walking towards my room. "Your room is the one opposite to mine," I told him pointing at the door.  

Five minutes later Lucas had changed into a Navy crew neck jumper, black skinny jeans but was wearing the same shoes.
I changed into a; 'In memory of when I cared jumper', light blue denim skirt, black knee socks with black ankle length boots.

"Here you go have fun." Mum handed Lucas and me a bag of apple turnover each.

"Thanks, bye" Lucas and I waved as we exited through the door.
