It's now the end of the week and I still haven't talked to my parents. It's prom day and I haven't really talked to Gabe either it's just that it's been really hectic and I'm trying to put some space between us so I've been riding to school with Daisy and making up excuses to miss lunch. I was getting out of Daisy car at home and she pulled off when Gabes calls me from next door making me stop and wait to see what's up.

"What's going on you've been ignoring me." He says. I bite my lip. With a shrug.

"After prom, we need space to let things cool off with our parents," I say.

"So you're giving up already?" He says.

"No, I'm just so sick of fighting with them about us. Maybe us being together right now isn't good." I say.

He's quiet for a minute before his phone rings. He picks it up and talks for a minute before putting the phone to his chest. He wrapped his arm around my waist before pulling me towards him.

"Do what you need to if you're not riding with me just tell me who you're going with and I will give them your tickets." He said. Letting me go walking away going back to his phone call.

I walk in the house and my dad's sitting right there. I was about to keep walking when he said it.

"I know I'm not your favorite person but I just saw that exchange between you and Gabe and everything is not ok." He says.

"It's nothing really. Just there's a lot going on." I say. That one tear fell and I tried to wipe it away but more kept falling. My dad opens his arm and I walk into them. When I calm down we go sit on a couch.

"Everythings so messed up right now and I don't know how to fix. I'm into with mom, struggling with Gabe above all else we have to get everything ready before tonight I'm stressed." I say. I'm glad I hadn't gotten my makeup done yet.

"Starting from the root of the problem your mom she's just showing you tuff love she didn't want you to get pregnant. You know what we went through and Gabes dealing with all the same things as you. He puts up with his parents just like you and he didn't quit on your relationship." He says.

"I didn't quit on our relationship," I say.

"So what do you call you've been avoiding him for a while you don't even fight for your relationship anymore.  You made it seem like you wanted this relationship and now it seems like your leading him on." He says.

"Daddy we've had more bumps and hills and cliffs in the past week an a half then we ever have. I want it to work but you and mom don't make it easy we fought and argue with yall ever step of the way. Yall have never said anything about curfew until earlier this week. Y'all don't trust me or us and that's why I felt like maybe I should pull away." I say. Sitting back.

"We trust you guys," He says.

"So you're saying that if I got in the car with him you wouldn't think for one second that we would skip school to have sex?" I ask.

"I would hope not. I would hope you guys are serious about school. Yes, there is a problem that we as parents need to work on but you are my daughter and if. For one second you think I wouldn't worry about you. You've gotten serious with a boy in Less than a month. I want what's best for you guys." He says.

"Y'all probably think him and I haven't talked about it but we have. Gabe and I have been talking about this before we were together how we would rather be married or engaged to our significant other before I get pregnant or he gets someone pregnant and this case we may end up being the others. We know all the consequences of sex if that's what we ever had planned then we would have come to talk to Y'all." I say.

"If I trust you enough to let move to another state for the love of your life then what makes you think I don't trust when you're under my nose and I know what goes on. " He says.

"I don't know," I say.

"Look go get ready for prom have the time of your life and we can talk more when you get home tomorrow." He says.

"Ok," I say getting up going upstairs getting my stuff together 15 minutes later Daisy and Victoria walk in my room.
.
"Hi guys," I say

"Are you an Gabe into it?" Victoria asks right off the bat.

"It's a long story that I don't want to talk about it,"  I say picking up my phone to text Gabe.

Me" I'm riding with you we need to talk after prom though." I went to go wash my face before brushing my teeth again before I get a text.

From Gabe"Ok. See you at 6:30"  He says.

I and the girls spent the rest of our 3 hours getting ready. They ready I still have to put on my dress and shoes. When their dates got here. I told it was fine that they can go. I was shrugging zipping up my dress.

"Can you come and zip me up dad or mom or like anybody," I shout. I minute later I feel a hand on my back and automatically stiffen because I know who it is. Gabe slowly zips it up while letting his hand touch all my exposed skin.

"Never lose faith in what we have." He says. Before letting go of the zipper. I turn to face him.

"I'm just so tired of all the fighting. I'm not leading you on if that what it seems like, I just need time." I say. Now that I think about it maybe I should of just talk to him about how I was feeling instead of being distant. I wrapped my arms around his neck pecking his lips.

"Now, let's get out of here." He says. I put my shoes on grabbed my purse, with my wallet, lip gloss, and keys. Gabe leads us outside to where everybody's taking pictures. Once we get done taking pictures we go get in the limo to head to an early dinner. Then off to prom we go.
