Song: I Loved You More ~ Blonde Ft. Melissa Steel. (In love with the lyrics ATM, don't judge! It's good, go take a listen, I listen to heavy stuff, so it's gotta be good for me to like it!)

"What have we here, Mason?" A guy asks behind me.
"Oh my god! Eric!" I squeal and wrap my arms around his neck. I've missed him so much. "I missed you! How was Italy? Was it good? How was New York? Oh god I'd love to go there!" Whoops, got a bit carried away.
"Shh, calm down Mason. They were both great, we both missed you, but looks like you were having enough fun." Eric winks. I elbow him in the ribs. "You're deadly!"
"Yeah, sweet as poison." Oli jokes as he walks past, carrying two paper bags.
"Can agree with that." Justin mumbles from behind me.
"Shut it you." I point at Justin. "You guys and your smart comments." He shrugs innocently and I lead him inside, after Eric and Oli.
I can hear Hayden's music from his bedroom, I like this song, it's called 'I loved you more' and the video is amazing. Yes, it's a pop sing, but the lyrics are amazing. I sing along loudly. Hayden turns it down and storms downstairs to yell at me, when he sees Oli, his eyes light up. "You're too manly for a hug, Hay, let me past." I tease. He rolls his eyes and I start to sing the lyrics to that song to annoy him.
We all sit at the high table in the kitchen, talking. Oli keeps eyeing Justin.
"I'd rather not get the stink eye from your brother, Mas, introduce me." Justin tugs at my hand to hurry me up.
"Oh please, Oli is a big teddy bear, I'm not too sure about Eric though." I smile slightly. "But fine. Oliver Staplynn and Eric Tenney, this is Justin Hills." I say nervously, leaving Justin to say the rest.
"My boyfriend." He mocks my voice and I smack his chest, knocking some air out of him.
Moms eyes widen, but then she calms down. Yeah, there's gonna be an argument later.
Oli and Eric smile, knowing that they caught us, kissing.
"That's nice honey, you're dating him now." I can't tell if my mom is being sarcastic or genuine. She shoots a dirty look at Justin and I flip.
"Screw you." I snarl and kick my chair back.
"Mason, come back here now!"
"So you can yell at me? Stop us from seeing each other? I'm not a kid anymore, I'm 19."
"Mason, he's 23 years old!"
"Huh, funny you married dad when you were 18, you got pregnant with Oli and was forced to marry the guy. How old was dad? 23 as well." I roll my eyes. "You didn't love the guy that much until Oli was born, then it was me, then Hayden and then that child." I snarl again and do a wild gesture with my hands for effect.
"You made me lose that child, you brat!" She yells. My eyes widen. Her face softens, realising what she's done. Everyone is staring at Mom, they know she's in the wrong and is being inconsiderate. "I'm sorry, Mason!"
"Whatever. I'm going, I'll find somewhere else to stay tonight. Don't expect me to go to school either, I only have dance."
I run up to my room and pack some clothes into a backpack. Justin closes the door behind him, raising his eyebrow at me.
"Don't say a single word, she was totally wrong." I say, putting on the backpack.
"I know she was Mas, you can't do this. She'll stop you from seeing me. You know she will." He's worried for me. He's not pretending to care, he does care.
I run back downstairs. "I'm still staying elsewhere tonight. Why are you acting like this mom? I'm totally sensible."
"Mason, how do you know he cares about you? He could just be using you for.... You know."
"Sex?" Justin laughs from behind me. "She's 19, like I'd do that, Mrs Staplynn. I'm more considerate than that, imagine how my reputation would be damaged if I did use her? I care about Mason, please just let me show you that I do." There's silence as she thinks. It leaves me thinking too, if he was going to use me, he would have done it by now and threw me away, like cheap trash. I'm not cheap trash.
"I'm sorry Mason, I shouldn't interfere, I can't say a word. I was younger than you."
"I'm going, I'll see you later."
"Mason, I trust you. Graduate and you can go to Florida. That's my only terms."
Well she loosened the reigns a little, I nod my head to agree and leave the house.
