"Everything will be okay" He held me tight.
"I have everything planned now. You will pretend bobby is your boyfriend, but you will avoid him in school, then on the prom day, you dump him" I opened my mouth, but Diego who knew me the best continued, understanding me "yeah that's mean, but he was mean to us all our lives, I mean, do you remember the time he blew up my locker? Or the time he crashed my bike into wall? Or the time he put fire in Kara's hair? Or the time he pretended Alex hit him just because Alex would get detention and automatically get discuaylificaid from the competition?" I nodded my head, he was right, he treated everyone like garbage. He played girls and broke their hearts.

"Let me guess, their plan didn't work" Lena assumed. Kara shook her head

"Nope. The day before prom, Sarah blew up and yelled at his face that he loved someone else. Because bob thought he owned Sarah and made her high on nerves. Bob told Sarah's parents and after Sarah went home, they told her that she couldn't go to prom. But that didn't stop Sarah either, she went to Diego and made new plan. But Bob had different plans up his sleeve..."

"Hey you little shrimp" I heard the door open and my adoptive brother came in. I ignored him and continued reading my book. He came closer and threw my book on the floor

"Hey!"

"You thought I couldn't find out?" Bob said

"What?"

"You've been sneaking out lately very much. Going to your pathetic friend of yours with blonde hair"

"Her name is Kara!"

"I don't care. I know that Sarah is your secret girlfriend" I gulped

"Who? Sarah Allen? Pfft I wish" He punched the wall behind me

"Quit playing with me kid! I know that she is your girlfriend and I'm gonna pay you back, you ungrateful little piece of fish" Bob smiled devilishly

"What did bob do?"

"He locked Diego in janitors closet in school next day. Just before prom. So when Sarah escaped from her house to go to prom, Diego didn't show up. She waited and waited and got very worried. Meanwhile Diego nearly knocked the janitor closet's door out"

"Where in the name of scott were you?"

Kara coughed "I couldn't go to prom because I was visiting Alex in college and helped her win Maggies heart" Lena laughed

"How romantic, you are forgiven. So what happened to Diego?"

"After some time and effort, our classmate Emilia heard him and opened door. Diego was so happy he hugged her and kissed her on the cheek in 'thank you'. Meanwhile, Sarah was going coo coo from worry"

Where is he?? He would never bail on me, would he? It's been hour and half!
I was pacing around until I saw familiar brown haired boy with his goons coming my way

"Hello Sarah, fancy seeing you here, I thought your parents locked you in your house"

"What do you want Wilson?" I snarled at him

"Oh, just wanted to tell you that your partner wont come" he said casually. Fear rushed into me

"What do you mean?"

"I mean that he is with another chick" I laughed

"Nice try" he smiled and took his phone out

"Oh you don't believe me?" And then showed me the picture. "Then do you believe photos?" His goons laughed. At first When I looked I saw a boy kissing a girl on the cheek. Then I focused and saw that that boy was my Diego and the girl was Emilia White. At first I thought it was real, just one tiny piece of fear rushed into my mind and told me that Diego didn't love me and he was actually cheating on me. But that thought was just for seconds, I an not stupid and I know that Diego wouldn't do something like that. I smiled and looked at Bob. He definitely didn't expect this kind of reaction. He just looked at me, his face confused.

"I do believe in photos. But I also truly and strongly believe in Diego" Bob made angry face and silently but angrily went away with his goons. I sighed.

Suddenly, out of blue, I saw familiar boy heading towards me in a rush, his cheeks red from running, his suit covered in dust. Diego's messy hair was slicked back, he held one rose in hand. He ran to me and hugged me, taking me up in air, I smiled happily.

"You came" he looked into my eyes and gave me the rose

"Of course I did. Sorry for making you wait. Pigface locked me In janitors closet and I was lucky Emilia was there" oh

"That explains a lot" we laughed

"You look stunning"

"You too handsome"

"Shall we?" I took his hand and smiled

"We shall"

I silently opened the door, and quietly with little steps went to the stairs. Not wanting to wake my dad and mom up. As I went to the stairs and thought I was safe, the light turned on and I saw my mom sitting in the armchair, my dad standing next to her. They both looked at me disappointed, ww stood there none of us daring to say a word. Until mom broke the silence

"You still went to prom? With him?"

"With who?" I asked

"With that boy! Bobs adoptive brother"

"Wait... you knew?" My dad looked at me

"Bob told us"

"Bob isn't my boyfriend" I told them. But their faces didn't change, they still looked at me with their faces calm and still, not moving a muscle. They were not surprised
"But you already knew that..."

"Listen Sarah-"

"You already knew it and still made me go with him?!" I interrupt her "then locked me in the house saying Because I made a mess in school?" My mother winced "but in reality... you just didn't want me to go with Diego? But why?" I croaked

"Because you wouldn't drop your chance to go to oxford!" My dad said. My eyes widened, as realization hit me

"You knew about Diego and were planning on braking us up and then that day Bobby showed up and that's when it hit you. You could go along with Bob's script, you knew he was faking it, but you didn't reject it because you knew how bad that kid was. And if I went on prom with him, My secret relationship would break, Diego would dump me, and I would go to university without a boyfriend" I stated slowly, with hate in my voice "you were ready to sacrifice your only child to Bob who in the lord's name could have been a freaking rapist! But nooo... who cares about Sarah? The important thing is her education"

"Oh don't be dramatic-" I heard dad say

"I'm not being dramatic... it's just you are being bad parents who don't care about their only child's feelings and emotions"

"We just want whats best for you-"

"And you think making me feel bad about my most dear relationship being broken is the best for me?" With that last words I quietly went upstairs, neither my dad nor my mom calling me
