"So, what have y'all been up to?"

"Oh nothing, just dodging Paige per usual." Seth laughs as he pops a chip into his mouth. They were hanging out in his basement. They; Renee, Dean, Nikki, Roman and Brie.

"Did you guys hear the news?"

"What news?"

"Randy is coming back to school. It is gonna be so much more fun!" Renee yelps as she goes back to texting on her phone. Dean rolled his eyes, yeah sure, he loved Randy, but he hated the Renee was with him. It was almost like she had a crush on him, but wouldn't pursue it because of him.

"I also heard that-"

"Seth!" His mom called downstairs.

"Yeah?"

"Your girlfriend is here to see you!" She mocked as she walked back to the door to let Sasha into the house. All eyes looked at Seth as his jaw tightened.

"She's not my girlfriend, chill." That was all he could think of before he ran upstairs. There she was. His beautiful girlfriend, she was dressed to impress and he could tell. She looked extremely excited too.

"Hey, baby!" She smiled as he embraced her in a hug before she pecked his lips. "I have got some good news."

"That's great," He pauses and shut the basement door. "They're here." He mouthed and she chuckled before lacing their fingers together, pulling him outside.

"My mom is back until Monday!" She squealed and hugged him tightly. He smiled and hugged her back.

"That's awesome! Shouldn't you be with her now though?"

"Well, I told her all about you, and she kinda wants to meet you." She trails off thinking he is going to be mad.

"Of course I'll meet her, you met my mom already. When?"

"Tomorrow at seven for dinner, sound good?"

"Yeah, I'll be there." He smiles and wraps his arms around her waist. Seth leaned down and pecked her lips before turning it into a real kiss. "I'll see you, okay?"

"Okay." She smiles a small smile before heading to her car. He rushes downstairs to be ambushed with questions from his friends.

"Who was it?"

"Why did you take so long?"

"Hmm," Nikki mumbles before getting in this face. "Sparkly lips, flushed cheeks?"

"You've been kissing!" Roman points out. "Who the hell is she?"

"It doesn't matter, you guys wouldn't know her. Just drop it, okay?"

"Alright, but I've got my eyes on you!" Roman threatens before returning back to his game. They did their usual thing, talked and laughed. People always thought that they were the bad kids, but they were just labeled wrong and that hurt each of them to a certain extent.

They chilled for the rest of the day until his friends had to be home. He hugged his boys and kissed his girls on the cheeks on their way out. He plopped down on his bed as he thought about tomorrow night.

Seth pulled up his light blue, ripped levi jeans and tugged a plain black tee over his head before looking at the clock. 6:35 it read, he decided to head over rather than be late. He kissed his mother goodbye before driving off in his car.

He arrived at Sasha's house three minutes before the agreed time and rushed to the door. He smoothed down his bun and rang the door bell.

The door quickly opened to reveal Sasha. She smiled up at him and pecked his lips. "Hey Baby, come in." She smiled as she laced their fingers and headed to the living room.

"Mom, this is Seth, Seth, this is my mom."

"Nice to meet you, Miss Banks." Seth smiles shyly before shaking her hand which she rejects and pulls him in for a hug. He smiled as he hugged her back.

"Nice to meet you too, it's a pleasure to meet the boy who keeps my daughter so giggly." Judith jokes as they all sit down. "So, I hear you also tutor my baby?"

"Yes, ma'am. She is doing so much better from before, I am proud." Seth explains as Sasha blushes. "But, I am so glad that I started to tutor her because it led to this wonderful relationship I have going on in my life."

"I don't know if you're always like this or if you just say the right things, but I like you Seth, a lot." Her mother smiles. "Now, the chef should be done, let's eat."

Dinner was as pleasant as Seth could have hoped for. Her mother had a great sense of humor and a smile that went from ear to ear. She reminded him of his own mom.

"So, how long have you two liked each other?"

"Mom-"

"No, it's okay. I, uh, well Sasha doesn't really know this, but I had a crush on her since freshmen year, but I was too scared to make a move, so I ended up staying quiet. I thought that if I stayed away from her, my feelings would stay away too, but it did not work that way," He chuckled as he took a pause. "And then I saw her again this year and I knew I had to make her mine because my feelings had only grown stronger and I was sure it was no longer a crush, but something that meant a lot more."

Sasha's eyes widened. Was that his way of confessing his love? She wanted to cry, he was such a beautiful soul and he made her so happy. She hugged him as Judith watched from across the table in awe. 

"Oh here come the water works!" She chuckled as she dabbed her eyes with the clothe used as a napkin. "You're growing up so fast. I am just so glad you're happy because that is all I could ever want." She smiled at the pair.

"Oh Seth, it is late. I'm so sorry to cute this short, but you two have school tomorrow."

"Yes! I will see you tomorrow Sash. It was so nice to meet you Miss Banks." He smiled as he hugged Judith.

"Likewise."

Sasha walked him to the door and opened it for him. "All that back there, was that a confession of l-"

"Love? You got it, Baby." He smiled as he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her closer. "I love you, Sasha."

"I love you too!" She smiled as she kissed his lips. She squealed as he picked her up and spun her around.

"I will see you tomorrow."

"Yes, goodnight." Sasha smiled brightly as she watched him get into his car and take off. "Phew, love."
