"Do you hear someone? Downstairs?"
"No.." I said, pushing him to continue what I'd started.
What felt like seconds after our lips reconnected, his door swung open.
"Don I came home to check- what the HELL?!"
It was his mother.
I quickly sat up, scooting away from Adonis.
"Oh- mom..Farrah came over for homework." He said, choking on his words.
"Homework? With your shirt off? In your bed?!"
"Ma'am I-"
"I don't wanna hear it! My son has been through some horrible things, and you trying to seduce him is sick and disgusting!"
"Mom she didn't-"
"I finally let you have a girlfriend and this is what you do? I knew I shouldn't have let you date this fast little girl!"

Adonis»
My mom continued to yell over the phone at Farrah's mother— meanwhile Farrah and I sat uncomfortably waiting on the couch.
My mom wasn't supposed to be home for hours, and I felt horrible about Farrah getting in trouble.
Now we were here, awaiting the awkward parent meeting my mother insisted on having.
What if this ruins everything? I know my mom is gonna be more strict than ever, Farrah's mom probably will be too.
As my panic settled in, Farrah grabbed my hand.
"A-aren't you scared?" I asked her in a whisper.
"Why be afraid Don? Whatever happens, it's not gonna stop me from caring about you, it's not gonna stop me from talking to you, it's not gonna stop me from seeing you, it's not gonna stop me from fucki-"
"Shh. Farrah."
"I'm just saying. Our moms are gonna do their worst, sure. But we're gonna figure it out. We always do, right?"
"Yeah..w-we do."
"Breathe Adonis. We're fine...whatever your mom does, you're gonna be fine."
-
Almost an hour passed, and Farrah's parents arrived. This'd be the first time meeting her father and this first impression was...less than desirable.
"Shit." Farrah whispered, as she noticed her father walk in with her mother.
After some awkward formalities, our parents sat down on the couch across from Farrah and I.
"So..would anyone like to explain what happened?" My mom said, leading the conversation.
I was so nervous I felt ill— so I kept quiet. Farrah must've predicted this, because with no hesitation she spoke up.
"Adonis missed school because he was sick. With permission from my mother, I came here to get him caught up with work."
"Permission from your mother?" Farrah's dad said, glaring between her mother and her.
"Y-yes..I did give her permission. But I didn't think you two would be in there having sex."
"We weren't having sex..both Adonis and I can promise you that."
"And how can we trust that? Whatever you two were doing when I came in, it wasn't appropriate." My mom said crossing her arms.
"I can't believe this..Farrah you promised you'd make good decisions." Farrah's mom said.
"I have been...it was just- we were just- " Farrah attempted to explain, but stumbled over her words.
Seeing Farrah crumble under pressure only made my anxiety worse, as I covered my face shielding myself from the harsh glares of both my mom and her parents.
"I don't think that a relationship is what they need right now." My mother proposed.
"I'd have to agree." Her dad said.
Farrah »
The pressure in the room was getting to be too much- even for me.
"So its settled then. Adonis I think it'd be best if-..."
"...no." Adonis uttered, so quietly I could barely hear him.
"Excuse me?"
"..I don't think...that m-me and Farrah..shouldn't see each other anymore."
"And what makes you say that? I'm curious." My father said directly to Adonis.
My chest tightened in fear. Anyone could see that Don was terrified, especially of my father.
"W-well...I think we make each other better. And..I kn-know it doesn't seem like it..but I can assure you, we aren't making any bad decisions together." Adonis said, barely able to make eye contact with my dad.
It was clear that Adonis was becoming consumed by the pressure as I did, so his attempts to convince my parents were interrupted.
"If you don't mind, might I interject?" I heard a voice from behind me.
Eden, standing by the stairs. I hadn't even known he walked in.
"What, Eden?" Adonis' mom said annoyedly.
"Well...just from an outsider looking in. I've known both Farrah and Adonis for some years now. Since they've met, Adonis hasn't been the same. But in a good way. He laughs, smiles, has fun. Stuff he didn't do so often-"
"But my daughter has beco-" my dad started, before being interrupted by Eden.
"Farrah has always been...nice. But I'm gonna be honest with you sir, if I may, Farrah had a bad bunch of friends. Popular, sure, but at the expense of others. Farrah becoming close with Adonis showed her who her true friends were..and there weren't many of them."
I hadn't realized how bad Melanie and Skylar were for me...until I were no longer friends with them.
Both my parents, and Adonis' mom were quiet.
My mom began to soften a bit, but I could tell my dad wasn't budging.
"Listen. I get it. Maybe you two aren't inherently horrible for each other. But I can't just be OK with my daughter going over to a boys house alone and doing....ahem...things. If Mrs. Sade saw correctly, what happened was not okay." My dad said.
"I have to agree. Fine the story is cute, but my opinion stands." Adonis' mother said shrugging.
"Like I said, we weren't having sex. All it was, was a kiss. That's..normal." I said, after regaining some confidence from Eden's interjection.
"Okay! I didn't want to say this with everyone around but it's clear I have to. Adonis is not like normal boys! My son can't do whatever it is you two were trying to do! He's diff-"
"I'm fine." Adonis said out frustration, filling the room with silence. "I've never felt uncomfortable with Farrah, and she's never felt uncomfortable with me."
The conversation continued to travel in circles, slowly annoying my parents. They could see that Adonis' mother was beyond overreacting, but she persisted.
"Well...I think we can all agree that maybe it's a hasty decision to force a break up. But maybe instead..some ground rules?" My mother proposed.
Annoyed that she hadn't gotten her way, Adonis' mom sighed.
"Okay. Ground rules."
I couldn't help but feel that her ground rules, had some type of ill intent behind them.
