*Audra's POV, Past*
The conversation with my mother went much better than most can expect from a mom at our age. My mom wasn't crazy protective and, if I dare to say, she almost looked happy about us being together.
I've heard from parents not wanting to accept their kids' relationships, embarrassing moments and million other stories. I was glad my mom had a more modern approach and, more than anything, that she trusted us to be our own people.
I knew our situation wasn't like others, and that made it a special case, but also my mother knew Chris closely and she had come to love him as her own son.
Her advice made a lot of sense and her few new rules - that honestly was more like some extra advice - made sense and were things I would probably keep in mind as simple common sense.
And well, an obvious one: we would not be sharing a room, at least not for now (those were exactly my mother's words).
