Zippy shoved him, hard, in the shoulder. "Now your parents hate me!" She was sobbing now, shaking her head.

He winced, but took hold of her, wrapping his arms around her. "They--they don't hate you. That had nothing to do with you. Zip...baby, I'm sorry."

She cried for a minute in his arms, shaking and choking back sobs. She pretty much decided to just let it all out- David certainly did.

((Last one! Night!))
He held her right there in the middle of the sidewalk, rubbing her back and murmuring into her hair. "Zip, it'll be okay. We all just gotta cool down. They'll see. They'll see that we're not just playing around here. That we're serious about each other."

She pulled away from him, wiping her eyes and composing herself. "How? How can we get them to know? I barely know...And, Why does Sarah hate me?"

He sighed, raking a hand through his hair. "Sarah hates everybody." And then he frowned at her. "And what do you mean, you barely know?"

"I mean..." zippy realized that was the wrong thing to say. "we've been fighting about this exact same thing all day, David. How are we supposed to convince your parents?"

He frowned at her, his heart clenching uncomfortably. "Well, I guess we can't if I can't even convince you."

"David," zippy began slowly, taking a steps towards him. "I love you. I know that it's real, but I also see where your parents are coming from."

Zippy gave him a confused look. "I'm on your side, David." She didnt know what it was like to fight with a family member, but David was really worked up about it. And apparently she should be too.

"Well, it doesn't feel like it! I feel like since we started this thing between us, you've been trying to convince me how it's doomed to failure!" He was frustrated and upset, and most of all hurt.

She opened her mouth to speak, but realized he was right. But she was right, too. Because David had been running around like a lovesick puppy. He had been jumping the gun and Zippy didn't blame his parents for questioning it.
She did, however, blame David for getting into it with them with HER THERE.
Zippy sighed loudly, wrapping her arms around herself. "We aren't doomed." This was one thing she was sure of. "I just don't want us to get ahead of ourselves. Can't we just take our relationship a day at a time?"

He looked down at the ground, kicking at a pebble angrily. "What are you so scared of, Zip? Why can't you just lemme love you?"

Zippy was shaking her head at him. "I don't understand why you think I'm not. I'm here, aren't I! I admitted my feelings for you, I met your family who now HATES ME. What else needs to happen?"
