The last few classes are the same. | walk her to her class, carrying her books. When the day is finally done, | walk her to her car. She unlocks it and with her hand on the door, turns to me. I’ve moved in close, desperately wanting to kiss her, but knowing she won't want that here in such a public place.

I smile and hug my mom, before leaning back and looking at her. “Mom, my date is with Cara. She invitedto dinner with her, Dad and Mr. Nelson.”

My mom’s eyes go wide and her mouth opens in a “O” before her smile spreads across her face. “So she is your mate, isn’t she?” z

“Yes mom, she is. Only she doesn’t know it yet, but | think she’s feeling the beginnings of the bond, even now.”

She puts her hands on either side of my face. “I’m SO happy for you. I'll make sure to tell Lily when | go see her tonight that her daughter and my son are mates. She’d be so pleased!”

“Thanks mom. Oh, and don’t tell dad. He doesn’t know and I’m not letting him ruin this for me.”

“Only if you promise to tellall about it tomorrow.” She bargains.

“Deal.”

With that, | head out. Before, going to Cara’s, | stop at a florist and pick up another dozen roses. This time, | get her red, for love.
