He stumbled back, breaking our kiss, clutching his neck, he was choking. I turned around to see my mother holding her hand out like she was choking someone.

"Stop, Mother stop! Please, I let him, I wanted it," I pleaded, tears streaking down my face.

She let go of her grip and he fell to the ground gasping, I ran to him, crying, our secret has been found out and none of us are safe.

---

My mother forbid me to see him but this time it was different, she looked tired, sad, and fearful, this time I cannot see him, all our families are in danger if I see him.

Tonight I go to bed, fearful of what might happen, I love him but my father never visits me anymore and my mother is the only real family I have, if I lose her all will be lost, I would have might as well try to bring her back alive, destroying everything in my wake.

I lie in bed crying, I cant think these thoughts, all I want to do is be with him but if I do be with him my family will be destroyed but I cant live in this family without him.

I change my clothes and go through the window and start to go to his house, when get around the corner of my house I see him, a few rocks in his hands, probably for throwing at my window.

I kiss him briefly.

"What? Whats wrong?"

"Nothing, your just so beautiful,"

I had messy hair, shirt and shorts and puffy eyes, I laugh a little before we kiss again, our embrace free, our lips entwined, we are one.
