Billie and I laid beside each other, completely naked under the blankets. She held me in her arms and we talked and laughed about small things. I really felt like this was how it was supposed to be.

"Bil, tell me more about your family?" I asked.


She raised her left eyebrow, "what do you wanna know?"


"Anything... I mean they are a huge part of your life, all families are, but I have never even heard you talk about your mom or dad. I mean I know you're an only child but..."


"I'm not an only child," Billie replied.


I scrunched my eyebrows together, "You're not? Where is your sibling?"


"On tour. My brother is my best friend, his name is Finneas. He dropped out of high school to go on tour with his band and my parents disowned him for his decision. We still talk sometimes though," she started to explain, she put her finger under my chin, "he knows about you."


I smiled at her, "Really? Like that we..."


"That you're my girlfriend. He knows you're my girlfriend."


She didn't know how much that meant to me. She leaned forward and kissed my forehead gently then rubbed our noses together. A serious look fell over her face and she sucked in air then continued,


"As for my parents....they are very uptight. Obviously loaded, but total assholes. I wish I had normal parents that were broke. Your dad loves you. I know sometimes it sucks not having money for stuff but I'm really jealous of your relationship with your dad. My parents have sent me to conversion therapy, ripped my ex girlfriend away and even got rid of my brother. They travel a lot for their business, so luckily I don't have to see them much, but when I do I will have to pretend that I don't even know you...and that's fucked. You deserve more than that," she sighed and ruffled her hair then pulled at her ringed fingers like she does when she's nervous.


I put my hand on hers, "What's wrong baby? Does talking about them upset you this much?" I asked.


She shook her head no, "Finneas is coming here tomorrow, which is awesome. I missed him so much. He will only stay for a day though because then my parents are coming home...and I don't know how long they're staying," Billie started to tear up, "I'm so sorry Cleo," she hugged me tightly.


I felt myself start to tear up too. It wouldn't be that bad. I knew Billie loved me. I had soccer practices now anyway, that would keep me busy.


Right?


"I promise you C, I'll sneak around for you still. I'm sorry it has to be this way. You're the best thing that has ever happened to me," I smiled a weak smile at her and she kissed my lips.


"So are we skipping school tomorrow so I can meet your brother?" I asked her, she grinned in response.


"Bad girl, huh?" she winked, "of course we can baby, he would love to meet you."


As I laid in Billie's warm arms and started to hear her snore, I couldn't help but worry about what this time apart was going to do to us. I didn't want to lose her.

AUTHOR SIDE NOTE:

Ya'll know I hate when the parents are homophobic but Billie's boujee parents are more about control in general. The story needed conflict 😘 Love you guys.
