So don't let them keep you down

Later that afternoon, Michael dropped me off at my house because I had left my car at school. I walked into the house, and my mum was standing there. She didn't really look mad, but her arms were crossed.

"So, what did you do this afternoon, young lady?" She asked.

"I went to Grayson's house to study. You know Grayson, right?"

"Yeah. You like him?"

"I might.. a little. I don't know.."

"Well, I give you permission, if you want to, to date him"

"Thanks mum"

I walked up to my room, and Jacob was standing by my door. I looked at him and he smiled. Not a "look at me, I'm happy" smile, but an "I did something" smile.

"What'd you do?" I asked.

"Nothing"

"Jacob Hunter Williams.."

"Nothing. I'm just happy you didn't get in trouble!"

"Why? What'd you tell mum and dad?"

"Nothing! I promise. I just didn't know if they believed me"

"Okay.." I walked into my room and got changed into sweatpants. I then stayed in my room to watch some tv. I also got on my phone and texted Michael. We had exchanged numbers. He wanted me to meet his friends, Luke, Calum, and Ashton. I said that I would sit with them tomorrow at lunch. He told me that they were in a band together! I finished texting him and turned on some Fresh Price Of Bel Air.

Soon it was 17:30, and I went downstairs for supper. Michael began texting me right in the middle of dinner. My parents looked at Jacob then me, and saw that my phone was lit up. I hid it so they wouldn't see who was texting me. My mum glared.

"Don't you dare answer that" she told me.

"Okay" I said, texting him "ttyl at supper."

"Isabella Brooke Williams!" My dad scolded.

"What? I texted him I was at supper!"

"Your mother told you not to answer it. And who is 'him'?"My dad asked me.

"If I would've not answered it, he would've texted me more. And 'he' is Grayson" I informed them, lying.

"Okay.." My parents were in sync.

Once supper was over, I began to text Michael while watching some Fresh Prince Of Bel Air again. I told him about the whole stupid texting fiasco with my fucking parents and he said that he was sorry. He said that he had caused it. I told him it wasn't his fault. It was mine because I texted him back. He said okay and I finished watching Fresh Prince Of Bel Air. My mum walked into my room, and for some reason, she started talking to me about Grayson.

"Honey, you like Grayson, don't you?" She asked.

"Yeah. I do. He's so sweet. He's funny. He's the best guy I've ever met. He's nice, too." I sighed, thinking of Michael. I described Michael, but using Grayson's name.

"Did he ask you out or anything?" She asked. I just realized she's never been this nice about boys...

"No. And why are you interested?"

"Because you've never liked a guy that I approve of. You always seem like you'd go for the rebels and punks like, um, what's his name?"

"Michael Gordon Clifford"

"Yes, him. Why do you know his full name?"

"He's nice mum! We talk at school sometimes. He's amazing"

"But you aren't dating him. Ever. I bet he won't even get a fucking career"

"Mum, he's in a band"

"With who?"

"Luke Hemmings, Ashton Irwin, and Calum Hood"

"They're all nice boys.. But why is Michael in a band with them?"

"He's nice too mum!"

"Okay, Hun. I'll talk to you later, alright?"

"Okay.."

She left, so I unpaused my Fresh Price Of Bel Air. I watched a few episodes, about 8! It was then 21:30, and I was tired. I took my shirt and sweatpants off, then heard, "Princess getting naked" from someone behind me. I looked back, and there Michael was, smirking and leaning on my window. I then realized I was half-naked in front of my crush.. (What? Is that what he is to me? My crush? I'm so confused!!). I picked my comforter up and covered myself with it.

"What the fuck, Michael?!" I said loudly, but my parents couldn't hear.

"I snuck out. I locked my door, climbed out the window, and slid down the side of my house. Then I climbed up the side of your house and saw you half-naked, no biggie"

"Huge biggie!! Get in here, then cover your eyes so I can finish!"

He climbed through, then shielded his eyes with his hands. I moved the comforter from my body, and got out my night-outfit top. I saw Michael move his fingers away from his eye so he could see me. I slapped his arm and he covered his eyes back up.

Once I was dressed, I locked my door, and Michael and I got into the bed and cuddled. We were like that for about 30 minutes until my mum knocked on my door. "Honey, can I come in?" She asked.

"Mum, I'm tired. I don't want to get out of bed."

"Okay, um, then goodnight. See you in the morning"

"Okay. Mum, wait!" I paused so she could say "yes?", then I said, "can Grayson take me to school tomorrow since I left my car at school to go to his house?"

"Yeah. I just want to talk to him when he picks you up!"

"Mum, he said he doesn't really want to get to know you guys in case it doesn't work out"

"Oh.. Okay"

"Night mum"

"Night sweetie"

She walked away from the door, and Michael looked at me. "Grayson?" He asked.

"I don't know.. I knew my mum would think he's a nice kid, so I told her I went to his house to study."

"Okay" he went back to the position he was before. I snuggled into him then fell asleep in his arms.
