(This chapter is going to mention Jean and Dawn in it a lot. If you don't remember who those people are, don't worry. Jean is Liza's mom and Dawn is David's mom.)

There has been a lot of things on my mind lately, things about Liza. I know we're only in high school but I really want to spend my life with her. I have to get parents permission before I do anything, so that's what I'm gonna do. Today I'm going to ask Jean and my mom if I can ask Liza to marry me. I already have everything planned out, I just need permission. I go into Jean's room and she's laying on the bed.

"Hey, David. What's goin on?" She asks and my heart starts racing. Have you ever asked someone's permission to marry their daughter? Its very nerve-wracking.

"Umm, nothing. I just need to talk to you about something." I say and she sits up. She pats the spot next to her and I sit down.

"What's up?" She asks and I feel like my heart is trying to break out of my ribcage.

"I.. uhh..." I stutter and she puts her hand on my arm.

"Whatever it is, you can tell me. I won't tell anyone, not even Liza, if you don't want me to." She says and I nod. I feel like that sentence just came from a movie, it sounds like it did.

"Ok. I want to propose to Liza." I say and she hangs her mouth open. She has that look where I don't know whether I'm going to be slapped or hugged.

"David, I-" She starts saying but I interrupt.

"Before you try to talk me out of it, I already have everything planned, all I need is an ok from you and mom." I plead and she looks down at her hand.

"David, I don't know if this is a good idea." She says and I sigh.

"Why not?" I ask and she looks at me.

"Liza's going to collage after high school. Do you really want to be long distance for that long?" She says and I nod.

"I don't care how far away she is, I want her to be mine for the rest of our lives." I say and she smiles.

"I think you're to young. But, I think you guys are ment to be." She says and I smile.

"Oh my god. Thank you Jean, you have no idea how much this means to me." I say and she pulls me into a hug. I leave the room and search for mom. I know she's going to be very hard to convince. I find her looking through the fridge in the kitchen, she's kneeling on the ground pulling out random things and putting them on the floor.

"Hey, mom." I say and she looks around the fridge door to look at me.

"Hi." She says and smiling.

"I umm... I gotta talk to you about something." I say and she stands up.

"Ok. Just help me put these things on the counter, I was cleaning out the fridge." She says and I nods. I help her put the things on the counter and we go into the living room. We sit down and she smiles at me.

"Umm..." I say and she tilts her head.

"What is it?" She asks and I open my mouth to say something, but nothing comes out.

"Uhh..." I say and she sighs.

"Come on, David." She says and I nods slowly.

"I want to marry Liza." I say quickly and mom nods.

"Sweetie, you didn't have to tell me that. I know you do, and you will soon." She says and stands up. She starts to walk away but I grab her hand, making her stop.

"No, mom, you don't understand." I pull her down and she tilts her head again.

"What am I not understanding?" She asks and I look down at my hands.

"I want to propose to her now." I say slowly and she hangs her mouth open.

"What?!" She says and stands up.

"I want to p-" I repeat but she interrupts.

"I know what you said, David! But what are your thinking?" She yells and I look down at my hands again.

"I love her and I know if I don't do it now, I'm not gonna get another chance." I explain and she runs her hand through her hair.

"Why won't you get another chance? You have all your life." She says and I shrug.

"Because she's going away to college soon and I'm not an-" I say but she interrupts again.

"You're not going to college?!" She yells and I shake my head slowly.

"No. It's not my thing and I really don't need or want to be there." I say and she puts her head in her hands.

"Let's not change the topic. She'll come back from college and you can marry her then!" She says and I shake my head.

"That's why I'm doing it now! Because I know she's gonna go and she's gonna find someone else and we'll break up and I won't be able to stand her being with someone else!" I say and put my head in my hands.

"David, you're 17! You guys have been dating for not even a year yet! You can't marry her!" She yells and I stay silent. I wish I didn't tell her so she couldn't talk me out of it like she's doing now.

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter how long we have been dating or how old I am. I don't want to lose her so this is my chance and I'm taking it." I say and get up. I walk up the stairs to my room and slam the door.

Liza is at the park with the kids so she didn't hear any of this. I fall into my bed and hold my pillow close to my chest. This is the part where I'm supposed to cry but I'm not gonna do that. I ignore all my thoughts telling me to keep it in and not cry. I hold my pillow and cry into it, like a dumb scene from a movie. I'm not gonna lose her, I don't care if mom doesn't want me to, I'm doing it. I lay on my stomach and look at my bed headboard with my back facing the door. I fall asleep after a few minutes of thinking and sleep for a while. I wake up about 3 hours later to Liza laying next to me, playing with my hair.

"Hey, baby."  She says quietly and I shuffle.

"Hi." I say with my voice raspy.

"Are you ok?" She asks and I nod.

"Yeah. Why?" I ask hoping no one told her about what happen earlier.

"You have tear stains on your cheek. Are you sure you're ok?" She asks and I nod.

"Yeah." I say and she nods. I pull her close to me and kiss the top of her head.

She has no idea how much I love her.
