Lolas POV

"sit down. both of you. now"

my mom commands billie and i to take a seat at the dinning room table. we both quickly pull out a chair and sit down without hesitation.

no amount of space could get me to forget how scary my mom is.

she and delilah get up for a moment and my mom says something to her while me and billie wait.

my chest hurt and my heart was racing.

i can't say what will happen next. i could never tell anymore..

as i watch, i turn my vision and focus on billie.

her leg was bouncing rapidly under the table, and her quietness was frightening.

billie was never quite when she new she was in trouble, she would start cursing and getting angry...

but not this time.

she watched my mom and delilah anxiously, and it made me more scared just by the sight.

"hey, it's gonna be fine. we're gonna be fine" i lean in a whisper to her, she looks at me with worried eyes.

"lola.." she begins in a wavering voice.

i check my mom before placing my hand on her thigh and rub it in a comforting way.

"just remember what i told you.. deny, deny-"

"which one you wants to explain these?" my mom asks handing out the photos in one hand.

my eyes scan then.

shit, how the hell are we gonna cover these up?

"mom, i swear, this isn't what you think" i say out of panic.

"then what is it, lola? your sneaking out and kissing just any person you see? really?" my mom asks in a far-fetched tone.

"no. it's not that either" i say sighing. "we were hanging out and things got really.. fast. but... we decided to put a stop to it and not go any further because i'm not allowed to date. and i respect that. we're just friends"

i give billie a look, one that says "just play along" and her eyes told me everything i wanted to know. she agreed.

"yeah.. i kissed her. and i know it was wrong. i know boundaries come first. and lola.. isn't even into me. she sees me as just a friend" billie tells my mom and then her eyes shoot at me.

it's hard to lie about such a incorrect situation.

but i nod and take a breath.

"yeah, i told her this and she understands. mom, we're just friends."

"i don't care what you are. this is unacceptable. you ran away for two months lola... your not an adult! and i don't know her, or her family even close to enough to let you just camp out with them." my mom explains as she glances at billie.

"miss monroe, this is not how i wanted us to meet. i swear.. this isn't lolas fault thought" billie says.

"so she ran away.. to be with you? correct?" my mom asks and she tilts her head, narrowing her eyes a billie.

"no!" i pop in. "i ran away because of you. don't think any part of that has to do with her of is her fault."

"i don't care who's fault is is. your not allowed to just run out whenever you want and be with whoever you want, doing god knows what. your sixteen god damn years old." my mom says sternly as she looks at me. "i spend way too much of my time worrying and trying to make things better for you. and this is how you repay me? by just leaving and shutting everybody out like you haven't gotten any sense? and i don't wanna even get started on this whole likeing girls nonsense all because you have "too much on your plate?" really lola? all you do is disappoint me!-"
