"Mum, I'm 16 now please stop babying me" I moaned.
"Sorry Jess it's just my little baby is all grown up."
"Zoe leave Jess to get ready" shouted my Dad from downstairs.
"OK" said Mum as she plodded down the stairs.

"Bye Mum Bye Dad" I shouted as I walked out of the front door.
"Bye Sweetie" shouted my Dad from the living room "remember be back by 11:30 and have fun"
"I will Dad thanks"
Today was the school dance and I was going with the guy I had plucked up the courage to ask who I had been crushing on all year. I was so excited. His name was Tom and he was really hot!
"Hi Jess" called Tom from the other side of the room.
"Hey Tom How are you?"
Me and Tom spent the next hour and a half dancing together and eventually we were so worn out we had to stop. We sat down at a nearby table and started to talk. To my utter disbelief me and Tom really didn't have much in common and that really disappointed me.
"Um Jess..... Listen...... I don't really think we are...... You know..... Right for each other"
And before I could even protest Tom had walked out of the school hall.
