Bulletproof

"I'm glad other people like it" A woman next to me whispers.

"What?" I ask.

"I'm glad I wasn't the only one who liked it when he was born" She smiles, and my jaw drops "Oh Sweetheart, I know I'm pretty but please" She jokes.

"You're his mom? Holy crap! That's his girlfriend" Mark points to me as I still sit there in shock.

"It's nice to put a face to all the numerous talks about you" She laughs.

"He's cute" I smile.

"He didn't tell me you were going to be here"

"It's because he didn't invite her" Mark rolls his eyes.

"That boy" She huffs "Why not?"

"I don't know, I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for him" I look at Mark.

"Well I'm glad your here, I didn't want Austin to know about my fiance just yet so I'm here alone" She smiles "Don't tell him I'm engaged" She says quickly.

"I won't" I promise, Mark nodding with me.

"I'm Michele by the way" She holds out her hand.

"I'm Brogan" I shake her hand.

"Mark" He says, shaking her hand after me. Once the ceremony is over, Michele takes us with her to go and find Carter.

"Hey Mom" He hugs her, his eyes flickering to me a look of shock taking over his face.

"Brogan" He says, hugging me awkwardly.

"Why didn't you invite her?" Michele yells at Carter.

"I didn't think she'd want to be here" Carter shrugs.

"Oh bullshit! You didn't want me to meet your girlfriend"

"This is awkward" Mark whispers in my ear as the two of them argue.

"I told you we shouldn't of came" I roll my eyes.

"Shut up" He huffs.

"Okay ma" He sighs, he walks over to me, looking at Mark quickly.

"Ah, I got it" Mark nods, walking over to Carter's mom.

"Baby, I'm sorry I didn't invite you. I didn't mean to make you upset, but my mom is very over the top and I didn't want the two of you to meet that way" He sighs.

"You didn't make me upset" I shake my head "Mark kind of brought me here. I figured that if you didn't invite me you had a good reason" I shrug.

"I'm sorry"

"Don't be" I shake my head, smiling lightly. He leans down and kisses me quickly, his hand sliding into mine.

"I will tell you that the guys and I are going to South Carolina and I want you to go with me then" He smiles, kissing my nose.

"Carter, unlike you I'm still in school"

"So, who cares? We both know you don't like it" He shrugs.

"I will fail math"

"I'll help you, please just come with me" He pouts.

"Ugh fine" I groan.

"Thank you baby" He wraps his arms around me, pulling me into him "I love you" He whispers.

"I love you Carter"

"I know" He hums, the two of us walking over to Mark and Michele, who are now joined by the guys.

"Brogan!" Zach squeals, running up to hug me.

"Zach" I mock him.

"Hey Brogan" Alex waves, hugging me when Zach finally pulls away.

"Hey Alex"

"Robert" I smile, and he hugs me quickly.

"So how about we all get something to eat?" Michele suggests.

"Oh, Mark and I have to g-"

"It's alright, I'll just take your car back home to your house. I'm sure Carter won't mind bringing you home" Mark winks.

"Yeah, I'll drive you home" Carter kisses my temple.

"Okay, Bye Mark" I say as he walks to my car. Carter takes off his cap and gown, revealing his numerous tattoos, that I will forever love on him. He puts his lip piercing in, his mom frowning.

"Ma, we agreed I don't wear it during the actual graduation" He rolls his eyes.

"I don't like it"

"Brogan loves it" He smirks, kissing my cheek, my face turning bright red.

"Austin Carter" Michele scolds, and he shrugs, chuckling lightly.

"Sorry ma"
