On Sunday I wake up to the smell of bacon and eggs. I run downstairs and see my mum dishing out breakfast. "Morning honey." She says opening her arms. "Morning." I say embracing her. "That's for you." She says motioning to the table. I look over and see a gift bag.

I run over and look inside to see a long flat box. I take it out and open it. It's a beautiful long sparkly black ball gown. "It's beautiful." I say in awe. "It's designer." She reply's. "And I'm glad you like it." She adds. "Well I'm going to go and put this in my room." I say putting the box back into the bag. "Alright. Oh by the way, we're going out to dinner tonight. So wear that." She says. I nod and take the bag upstairs.

Later on that evening

We take my mothers Porsche to a beautiful modern restaurant. Of course it had valet parking. When we walked into the restaurant I'm hit with the delicious smell of the food. The colours white and gold are everywhere. Crystal chandeliers hang above us on the ceilings. It's so fancy. Sitting down waiting for our food I feel the need to use the bathroom. So I excuse myself to use the bathroom.

Sitting down waiting for dinner, I listen to my parents endless talking. "You need a girlfriend Cole. I think having a girlfriend would be good for you." Says my mother. "Should improve your mood and behaviour too." Adds my father. "It will also be good for your mental wellbeing too." Adds my mother. "I'm beginning to think you're gay." Laughs my father.

I'm just so fed up with this shit. These two are just fucking making me frustrated. "Damion." Scolds my mother. Fuck this! I stand up forcefully, causing both my parents and a few others to look at me. "You know what-" I start in a hushed tone, trying not to cause a scene. Suddenly I spot Carly walking past our table behind my parents.

She's doesn't notice me, she looks like she's determined to go somewhere or do something. "I do have a girlfriend." I say to them then walk towards Carly. "Carly!" I call out. "Cole?" She says confused. I wrap my arms around her waist and press my lips to hers. Kissing her feels so good. I've wanted to do this since I first saw her. This electrifying wave washes through me.

I hesitantly pull away. "Cole..." She starts. I turn to face my parents. They stare at me with their mouths open. Stunned and speechless... for once. "This is Carly... my girlfriend." I say. They still don't know what to say. Is it really that unbelievable? I face Carly and give her a pleading look. "Y-yes... I'm his girlfriend..." She says unsure of what to do.

She straightens her posture and a smile spreads seconds her face. "Cole, I can introduce myself." She says. She walks up to my parents and holds out her hand. "I'm Carly." She says shaking my mothers hand. "Mary." Says my mother with a smile spreading on her face. "Damion." Says my father as Carly shakes his hand. "Nice to meet you both." Says Carly with a bright smile that will put diamonds to shame.

"Well I must get going. My mother is waiting for me." Says Carly with a sincere look on her face. "Oh come join us." Says my father. Carly and I shoot each other a look. "I don't want to intrude." Says Carly looking down. "Yeah it's fine. Another time." I say to my parents. "Don't be silly, I'd love to meet your mother." Says my mother. "Okay..." Says Carly hesitantly.

I quickly walk to my mother. "Someone just invited us to sit with them." I blurt out. "Let's go." I add. "What are you talking about?" She asks. "Just go with it please." I plead. "Fine." She says following me to their table. "This is my boyfriend Cole and his parents." I say as I let them introduce themselves. My mother looks at me and I give her a 'just go with it' look.

"Cole. So nice to meet you. Carly talks about you all the time." Says my mother shaking Coles hand. God I love my mother. "I was wandering when I'd meet you." She adds. "So she talks about me a lot huh" Says Cole flashing me a mischievous smile. My mother turns to Coles parents. "Damion Rane." Says Coles dad as my mother shakes his hand. "Mary Rane." Says Coles mother shaking my mothers hand.
