                      Chapter One

"what??? you can't be serious , I am not getting married . I'm  only sixteen mom ".

I was shouting and yelling at my mom and by the look in her eyes I could see she was so upset , but she couldn't do anything about it , because she couldn't stand watching my brother Connor go to jail for 6 years because he had ran over a boy named Jason and thank God he wasn't dead nor injured badly , he just had a broken arm and some bruises, but unfortunetly his parents happened to be the worst parents in the whole planet and suggested me to marry Jason's bigger brother Jesse ,and if I accepted they will let my brother out of jail.

But how could they do that? how could they build my brothers life back by destroying mine? I really wanted to help my brother and I really cared about him . But the thing was , I wasn't ready for marriage at all and it was the only thing that I had never thought about it ,not even ONCE  ...and on the other hand I was worried about how I could tell my friends  that I was going to get married at 16!!! I mean , they would freak out and think I was getting crazy or think it was a funny joke and laugh all day about it.

_Ashley please just think about your brother, 6 years in jail isn't that easy
and he will be surrounded by all kinds of bad people there that I don't want Connor end up being like one of them.

_ well mom,  I really wish you could just think about me a little bit more ok? how could you get off me that easily ?? I am your daughter ... I agree that Connor is really in a bad stuation right now and I feel incredibly bad for him but I have done nothing why I have to be the one to pay the price ??

_look darling at this point you think I dont care about you instead all I care about is your brother but believe me this is not true I love you as much as I love him but I'm really woried about him that I would do anything to get him out because "prisoner" is the last name that I want my son to be called" ..... she paused for a while and continoued .. Ashley  maby this marriage thing isn't as bad as you think and ofcourse we don't want you to get married tommorow , you will just get engaged and get married after finishing college or whenever you want "

I couldn't listen to her anymore because I  couldn't bilieve that she was actually thinking that me getting married to a boy that I havn't even seen was a good thing .. wow maybe my parents weren't much better than Jesse's ,  so I just ran into my room got a jacket and my car key ..I was in my pyjamas but I didn't even care.  I  got into my car , started driving with no destination. It was 11:00pm but I just wanted to drive away from home as far as I could but after some time I realized that I couldn't see the road anymore because of all the tears .. I stopped the car to wipe my tears as I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket and when I pulled out I saw "new message" sign on the lock screen and the message was from an unknown number :

hi Ashley how are you? I am Jesse ....I am really sorry for bothering you that late but  umm my parents are forcing me to meet  you, so can you come to Starbucks tomorrow 6:00 pm???!!

Oh my God ... I just wanted to type back  "NNOO!!! I never wanna see you because I will NEVER agree to that marrige" but it was rude and I wasn't that kind of girl .He was just trying to be nice and make things out a little bit so I typed : 

Hey Jesse ... uh yeah I try to  be there .

And he answered immediatly :

ok then I will see you tomorrow ....

I wasn's sure if I would go there tomorrow because as far as I have known myself I was a very insecure person so I could change my opinion at any minute.

I put my phone back to my pocket and started the car to go back home , as much as I wanted not to enter that house again but I had to,  because I had no where else to go and I was very tired and felt dizzy so probably what I needed the most was to go to bed and relax ....

When I opened the entrance door all I heard was my sister Jessica shouting at my parents as loud as she could "how dare you do that to her ?? she is only a teenager .. she doesnt know anything about marriage.. there has to be another way to get Conner out of jail .. Please I am begging you don't do this to her . Let her chose her own life , the way she wants to be and be with the one that she loves ..you can't force her to spend the rest of her life with some one that she was forced to live with...   "

I was sitting by the door listening to Jessica and crying .I really loved her alot she has always been by my side , even though she was married but she kept calling me every day to know how I was doing . I  told her all of my secrets and problems and she always found a solution for them..

Jessica kept shouting and shouting but my parents didn't say a thing so she got tired and decided to leave and when she saw me by the door she rushed to me and hugged me so tight and whispered in my ears "Don't worry Pumpkin this marriage won't take place as long as I am alive so go back to your room and try to sleep " .
