Elena's POV

"Hey, mom," I said.

"Where are you, Elena? Why did you lie to us?" Mom asked sounding angry.

I had never heard her so angry and upset.

"You know how dad, Brandon, and Noah are overprotective. I did not want to lie but I had too. I wanted to go out with some friends that you do not know about. Don't worry, I am fine." I said.

"You should not have lied to your family. Come back home as soon as possible if you don't want your dad to start searching for you," she said.

"Tell him, I am fine. I will come back tomorrow," I said.

"No, young lady, you need to come back today." She said.

I felt upset at her demand. I did not want to tell her about Jake when she sounded so angry.

"Mom, please, I can't come today. I promise you, I will be back tomorrow." I said.

"I get it, Elena. I think you are old enough to make your decisions now. Talk to your dad, because I am done trying to calm him down," she snapped.

She ended the call and I sucked in a sharp breath.

She had never hung up on me

He said looking glad that I understand his point of view."I meant to say...it's not an easy task to make someone move on from their past. I have been doing it for a while." I said making him look at me in surprise."Well, I can certainly say it's not easy to move on." He said shaking his head.We walked closer to the beach in awkward silence."You came here alone?" I asked him."Yes." He replied."You are here with your family or friends?"There was no point in lying to him, he would not go and tell Brandon that he met me here."I...I'm here with my boyfriend," I mumbled feeling my face heat up.He suddenly stopped walking, looking lost."Adrian?"

We just accidentally stumbled here with each other.""He kissed you." He said clenching his hands."On the forehead as a friend and told me to take of myself," I added."He is a nice guy, I like him," I said and he glared. I rolled my eyes and added, "—as a friend, stupid,"Jake circled his arms around my stomach from the back and leaned towards my ear."I warned you I am a very possessive man." He whispered."I remember, clearly. Your possessiveness is hot but keep it in your pants." I turned and winked at him."I'm serious, Princess. Don't you dare to test me again like that?" He warned me."What can I say?" I shrugged my shoulders."I like to take risks." I s
