Hope you liked the last chapter. Didn't see that coming, did ya? Lol.

We fell asleep not long after that. I felt so comfortable in his arms, so at peace...so loved that I didn't even hear the door open and close. I didn't hear the footsteps on the stairs.
But I sure as heck heard when mom said, "What the hell is going on here?"
Sean and I sat straight up in bed. Remembering that I didn't have any clothes on, I pulled the sheet around me and hid behind Sean. "Mom, I can explain..."
"You better," she said. "Get dressed and then I want to see both of you upstairs in five minutes." She walked back up the stairs.
I flopped down on the bed.
"I'm so sorry..." sean said.
"It isn't your fault, don't worry," I said.
I stood and threw my clothes on and Sean did the same.
We stood at the bottom of the stairs for a moment, close to each other, his arms around me, my head buried in his chest.
Gathering all of my courage we walked the stairs. I felt like I was walking the plank on a pirate's ship. Walking to my doom.

When I walked into the living room, Mom looked furious.
"Mom," I said. "I'm sorry...okay? I didn't know you would be home early."
"Did you go to school today?" she asked.
We shook our heads 'no.'
She sat down on the couch and buried her face in her hands, I could tell she was trying to get a hold of herself.
"I guess you should go home," she said to Sean. "Your brother is probably worried about you."
"You're right," he said.
"I'll drive you," she stood.
"It's okay, I can walk. It's not far," he said.
"Are you sure?"
"Positive."
I walked him to the door.
"I'm so sorry," he said.
"Don't be, because I'm not." I hugged him and shut the door.

"How could you do this?" Mom asked, pacing back and forth.
"Mom," I said.
"I mean your usually so repsonsable."
"Mom, will you listen?"
"What were you thinking, Emma?" she demanded.
"I was thinking of how much I love him!" I cried.
She stopped in front of me and sat down next to me.
"I know you love him, Emma. But you are young, you both are. You're not ready for the consequences this could have."
"I don't care about the fucking consequences." I said. "All I care about is that I love him and he loves me. That's all that matters."
