"It's this really big house in Platers Avenue. Number 67, I think..." Hunty said over the phone as I jotted down the address. "Hey... babe?"

"Yeah, Hunty?" I reply with a smile on my face, which obviously he can't see because we're having a phonecall. 

"Thanks for accepting... you coming over to meet my parents and such..." he chuckled with his adorable accent making it cuter than ever, I'm so in love with his laugh...

"Aw baby, that's okay... I wish you could meet my parents and sister, but you know..."

"Yeah, yeah, I know... I really don't like you dating behind the backs of your family, but I do understand your situation... If your sister found out about us we'd be in serious trouble..." he sighs "But we can't let that put a damper on our mood, huh? We'll make it through in the end!"

"You're right, baby, thank you so much... I love you." I reply sincerely "I love you a lot."

"You're the best boyfriend ever, asshole... I love you" he chuckled and I giggle at the insult

"Shut up, you pile of shit!" I say giggling

"Why you gotta be so rude?"

"Don't get me started, you know I hate that song" I respond still chuckling.

This is basically our entire couple life up until now. Mutual insults and endless laughing, everytime we talk. We've never cuddled though so I need to get on that... I'm a cuddler.

"What?" Hunter shouted out of nowhere "Ok, ok, I'm coming!!"

"Something happened?" I asked curiously

"Nah, nothing. I need to go though, I'm going to the studio now... Wanna meet me there later and we could go to my parents' place together?" he suggested

"I want to, but I can't... I need to study and prepare stuff up for my CR project with..." I pause, refusing to say his name.

"Oh, okay, I got you. What are you gonna do though? Meeting him? Skype?" he asked "I'm sorry you need to work with him after what happened... If you need anything text me, I can help y-"

"Hunty stop" I interrupt him calmly "He screwed up, sure, but I can cope. We're having a truce for now, and after the debate I'm getting my pretty little bum as far away as possible from that traitor."

Hunty sighed "Good luck, babe, I love you lots. Gotta run"

"I love you too, Hunty, hope recording goes smoothly. See you" I replied, and heard a quick kiss before he hung up and went away. He really shouldn't worry as much as he is, Niall and I are just gonna get our project done, present it next week and boom, done. Then I'll just go back to hating him.

Not that I don't hate him now... I guess I do.

"Ok, so that's the entire argument done." he said as he jotted the final words against the piece of rough paper he brought over to the park where we met to work.

"Yeah. Now we just need to get ready for the questions and arguments they might have."

"Well, how the crap do we know what they're gonna ask us? We might as well just wing it during the actual debate." he suggested, scratching the back of his hair.

"Maybe so... but I don't know, Niall, we need to have the best grade ever. The entire 12th grade is on our shoulders, ok?"

"Yeah, I got you, but damn, we busted out butts on this research. I think being gay is wrong with all the arguments we got together."
