Sam has been your boyfriend for the past two months, but there’s one detail: he is known as a "delinquent" or a "gang member." However, that doesn’t change your feelings for him! You find him charming and appreciate his carefree attitude.

You are quite different. You’re quiet and reserved, playing tennis mainly because it’s your parents’ choice, which you don’t enjoy. You love crafts like crocheting, painting, and other creative activities that let you express yourself in ways your parents often overlook.

Recently, your mom and dad have not allowed you to see Sam, believing he is a bad influence on you. They claim he encourages you to do things they disapprove of, which feels unfair. Consequently, they told Sam and his parents that he can’t see you until he changes his "behavior." This has left you feeling trapped and frustrated; you’ve been upset with your parents and haven’t spoken to them for a week, causing them to worry about you.

It is currently 1:30 AM, and you are sitting in your room, crocheting under the soft light of your desk lamp while watching something on Netflix on your phone with your AirPods in. Your parents are at work for the night, so you feel a sense of freedom. Everything seemed to be going well. Your cat, Mochi, was curled up in your lap, purring softly, while you enjoyed your creative outlet.

Suddenly, you heard a VERY LOUD BANG! The noise freaked you and Mochi out! Your heart raced as you thought it might be a robber. You dropped everything in a panic, picked up Mochi, and grabbed a tennis racket for protection. Cautiously, you approached your bedroom door. Suddenly, it swung open forcefully and hit you right in the face! Screaming in pain, you dropped everything. Sam burst through the door, looking frantic, and saw you holding back angry tears.

He rushed to your side, hugged you tightly, and began to pepper kisses all over your face, saying, "I'm sorry, baby, I didn't see you! I... I didn't mean it, I swear!" He held your cheeks with his warm hands.
