• "What do you think, that i dont know this?!" i screamed waiting for his answer. My step brother turned his music up. "Gosh you are a pain of my life" i slammed my fist against his door. "Answer me!" i rolled my eyes as he turned the music up louder.
    I ran to my room and shut the door quietly/I slid dow n the door."What the hell am I supposed to do about this?" the image of what happened stuck in my head. Sam Jackson and i were kissing in the alley behind my house. Micheal, my step brother had appeared out of nowhere and had this look on his face. LIke i had betrayed him or something. And then he yelled at me "Jessica i cant belive you. I hate you" we were both fifteen and knew eachother from school. We had been, no i cant think about that now. Especially not now. Too late. Gosh we had been a secret. Waiting for eachother, leaving notes, talking on the phone all night. Then his mom had passed away and suddenly my mom and his dad were hanging out togeather more and more.
    We couldn't even be togeather not now not ever. A silent knock hit my door. I got up and opened it. Micheal was stading there. His hair was a chesnut brown and was to his chin. His eyes were bright blue with dimples in his cheeks as he bit his lip. "I'm sorry i acted the way i did. I know i upset you and i apologize. Friends?"He held his hand out and looked at me.
    I sighed. I shook his hand with my right hand and moved my black hair out of my green eyes. "Friends. I'm sorry to. I acted like a little kid" i mean i am not a total b***h. Atleast i dont think anyone has noticed yet. "Damn it stop looking at me like that" i sat down in my desk chair.
    He acted genuinly shocked "I didn't do anything. Okay well obviously I did something but now i can't look at you? Gosh i feel so accused" he sat across from me. "I mean i can't even hang out with you any more. I can't even talk to you. What the hell? i hate this to the deepest darkest part of my soul".
    "And that is? Hey don't roll your eyes at me" i playfully kicked his shin. "Well it sucks for me too but well we have too. We will get over it, i promise" i hate myself just needed to point that out.
    "Jess don't make promises you can't keep" i started to interupt but he stopped me "There is always a way. I have been looking into it and i am thinking about getting emancipated. I am turning sixteen next week. I can last a year i think but if your you know" he avoided my eyes.
    "Look at me. I will wait but that won't change our parents staying married. Unless..." i bit my lip wondering if Micheal was thinking the same.
    "Well they wouldn't be my parents and they wouldn't be yours if" my heart started to hurt.
    "I got emancipated as well" i knew i had to choose. I was a fifteen almost sixteen year old making a decsion that could change my life and somehow i already knew the answer. "Okay".
    "Okay yes? or okay no, never not in this lifetime?" I rolled my eyes and kissed his surprised lips and smiled.
    "What do you think?" i kissed him again. "Somehow i need to explain this to Sam".

    One year later

    "Are you sure you want to do this?" the lawyer looked at us holding hands with a look of disgust.
    Somehow that made me want to do it even more. I looked at micheal. "Hell to the yes" i smiled.
    "Fine. Sign here and here. Initial here....." .
