sorry Damon. If there is anything that we can do, please let us know.”
“Well if it’s okay can I stay here for a few days?”
“I will talk it over with Mr. Perry and let you know.”
Smiling back at my mom, “Thank you so much and I am sorry for dragging Arissa into this last night. Please forgive me , I was foolish.”
I watch as mom leaves the sink area, comes over, and hugs Damon while saying, “All is forgiven honey.”
Mom talked things over with dad and he was not happy about the situation, but he did understand. Damon is allowed to stay over, but I have to keep my bedroom door open at all times. I can totally live with that it’s not like I really want to have sex with him. Oh and sure to my mom’s word I have a doctor’s appointment next week to arrange a prescription for the pill.
We go back to school tomorrow and my parents have devised that he can’t stay on school nights. Therefore, he has to go home tonight. Which he is not too thrilled about. Every time he goes home his mom is a mess, she is so depressed all she does is cry. I feel for him I really do, I wish that he could stay here. I just might sneak him in my window tonight. I have found that I like sleeping with him and I do mean just sleeping. As I walk him to his car, he kisses me goodbye and I watch as he gets in and drives off. I am so worried for him, I begin to tear up, and this is tearing him apart.
Chapter 5
You know I am really starting to hate that alarm clock. I awake from my beautiful dream and get ready for school. I go outside to get into my new car and I see Damon waiting for me next to his.
“Hey babe, I was thinking of driving my car today, since it’s new and I want to show it off. I hope you don’t mind. Do you want to ride with me?”
“No, that’s fine I will just meet you at school?” He utters.
I walk over to him and give him a quick peck on the lips. He looks so depressed. “Hey, are you ok?”
“I just have a lot on my mind right now.”
Shrugging it off, “I understand; if there is anything I can do, please let me know. I am here for you babe.”
Giving me a tight squeeze, “I know babe, I’ll meet you at school.”
He follows me to school and as we get out, everyone is staring at us, as if we are so weird for not riding together. He parks next to me and we meet in the middle. He places his arm around my neck and we walk to our lockers.
His class is on the other side of campus, giving me a quick kiss, “See you for lunch.”
Taking hold of his hand I nod, “I love you.”
He lets go and walks off I hear him half-heartedly tell me, “I love you too.”
As I am about to close my locker, Elena approaches me looking concerned, “Hey is everything okay between you and Damon?”
Looking at her, not sure of where to start. “I really don’t know. He gave me a promise ring for Christmas and I accepted it. Then his parents ended up separating and he has become so distant and depressed. I don’t know how to handle this situation. I had to go pick him up at 4 am the morning after Christmas, because he had been drinking. It’s just been a complete mess.”
“Well maybe you should take a break for a little while, let him work through all this on his own.”
I jump to Damon’s defense, “I can’t do that. I would feel like I am abandoning him.”
Waving me off, “It’s not abandoning him; it’s giving him space to react the way he needs to. You can still be there if he calls you for help. Just step back a bit.”
“I will have to think about that for right now. I am just trying to be a good girlfriend and be his outlet.” The bell rings and reminds us we only have a few
