Our Forbidden Love

Chapter 32

Standing in front of the doorway is a man whom I had an argument with for weeks ago and is now holding a big bouquet for roses with a note card attached to it. Danielle.

"Congratulations, Katherine." He says, leaning toward me and plant a soft kiss on my cheeks as he hands me the bouquet. And as much as i hate it, I'm blushing. I can feel my fucking face burns when he pulls away.

"What are you doing here? At my front door" I whisper to him and that only made him chuckles.

"I'm here to say congratulations to my girl." Girl. My girl. I'm standing here speechless. My mind goes blank. Can somebody pinch me or something.
"May I please come in?"

"Of course. Please do" my mother says before I even have a chance to part my lips.

Sitting on the couch next to me across from Matt, Cameron and Sarah who still have their jaws dropped. And thank god he knows how to break the awkwardness.

Danielle started, " congratulations guy. You've made it through four years of High school. Any plan for tonight?"

Matt answers telling him about our party at Noah's place.

"I see.." he rubs his chin. "Whatever you do just don't get yourself in trouble. Stay out of it as much as possible."

They all nodded. "What about you coach?" Matt asks,

"Me? I'm planing on taking this little sweetheart right here-" he place his palm on my knee. "For dinner tonight."

I gulp. "D-dinner? But I have p-plans."
Looking at him.

"Well, you just have to cancel that." He winks. "And by the way," he said turning his attention back to them. "Please, call me Danielle."

Matt nodded.."uh.. okay-"

And before this can get any worse I excuse myself to the kitchen and get a vase to put the flowers in.

I set the flowers down on the counter and bend down to get a vase.
"Katherine Kingston, what is this?" Mom booms out and I almost hit my head.

"What's what?" I'm grinning.

"...this." She move her hands over the flowers on the counter and it made me laugh.

"It's a flower mama. Roses actually. A red one." I barely contain my laugh.

"Katherine, is this some kind of joke or something? He is your teacher and he just come in here with a bouquet of flowers in his hand. I'm sure he's not here to tutor you."

"I don't know mom. I can't even believe what i'm seeing either."

She sighs. "Your father is not going to like this."

She's right. Dad is not going to like this.
"What about you ma? Are you.. are you like.. okay with it?"

"I-I don't know Kathy.. I-I guess so."

My face lit up. "And.... are you okay with me.. um.. going out tonight for dinner with him?"

She looks at me for a slight moment before she gave me a Yes. "But. Don't stay late and, we'll talk more about this tomorrow."

I nodded with a big grin "every detail you want to know ma." I kissed and turn the tap to fill the vase.

"I'll do it. You go and change."

I walk out to the living room and start to ascending the stairs.
"Where ya' going?" Sarah ask and all eyes are on me.

"Uh.. to dressed up"

"Oh.. okay. I'll help ya."
I smile and we both headed to my room.
