I'm sitting in the back of the car, starring out the window and ignoring my parents effort to get me to talk. They took away my car after they figured out about James ( my boyfriend ) hitting me, they said unless I broke up with him I would never drive my car again.

Weren't they ever young and in love? They should understand but they don't!

" Honey, we're doing this for your own good. "

" My own good? "

I scoff.

" I love him, how is putting up a wall between me and the man I love for my own good? "

" You're only seventeen Ariana, there will be others. "

I glare at my dad as he says this but then turn my attention back to the buildings outside the window. I don't want there to be others, I just want James, no one else.

We get home and I immediately get out of the car, slamming the door and running up to my bedroom locking the door. When my parents don't come up to check on me I get out the phone James bought for me and call him. My parents took away my phone when taking away my car didn't work but James bought me one so we can still talk.

" Hello sexy, haven't heard from you all day. "

He says, picking up the phone on the first ring. I smile.

" Yeah my mom has been dragging me around up town, then to the stupid therapy appointment. "

I say, groaning annoyed.

" I miss you. "

I say and I hear him chuckle.

" Then how about you let me in? "

I furrow my eyebrows in confusion but then walk over to my window and move the curtains to see him in the tree across from my window smiling at me. I laugh shaking my head.

" You're insane. "

" Only for you babe. "

He says winking, I laugh hanging up the phone and quietly opening the window. He jumps into the room.

" Ariana what was that?! "

My mom yells from downstairs.

" I just dropped my text books! "

I yell back, trying to contain my laughter.

" Those are some heavy ass textbooks. "

James snickers and I roll my eyes.

" How was your day? "

I ask him smiling as he takes my hand and lays down with me on my bed.

" Way better now that I'm with you. "

He winks.

" You're such a cheese ball. "

I say laughing and he raises an eyebrow at me looking amused.

" Cheese ball? "

" Yes, it's a new name, a name specifically picked for you! "

I chirp happily and he laughs.

" You're so adorable. "

He teases, kissing my nose.

" Nahhhh. "

I say blushing and biting my lip.

" Yahhhhh "

" Nahhhhh! "

I whisper yell.

" Don't make me yell it, mommy dearest won't like it. "

He threatens and my eyes widen as his mouth opens but I quickly put my hand over it laughing.

" Be quiet you cheese ball! "

He looks at me amused and licks my hand making me pull my hand away. I'm about to scold him but he shuts me up quickly by pressing his lips to mine, I don't protest and I kiss back, pulling him on top of me as I wrap my legs around his waist.

I love James, I know James loves me and I don't understand why my parents can't accept that. When I'm around him, I smile so much that my face hurts and the butterfly's in my stomach refuse to stop flying around.

I know he doesn't seem bad but looks can be deceiving! Just wait for it!
