I'm so sorry I took so long with the chapters. There is only one chapter left to wrap up the year 2018 which was quite eventful as the year 2016.

- "Hey Paul." Amber says spotting him outside and his just so busy on his phone. It's already the middle of the year and it's the most important time for every matriculant to prove themselves ready and fit to write the end year exams. "One and only Miss Parks. How have you been sweetheart?" Amber goes in for a hug. "I've been good just needed sometime off from school you know, so I can focus on my mental health." "Well okay at least I get to see you." he says holding her hand. Paul asks Amber everytime for a kiss instead of diving in and he is so sweet and eventually Amber gives in and gives him a chance however, Amber's friends don't know about their relationship. Amber has given Harold a bit of a pause and more focus on her studies and her new relationship. A few weeks go by and Amber has never felt so relaxed in her life without the drama going on. Everyday she goes to school and attends even the extra classes too, the love between her and Paul is growing stronger everyday, finally someone who understands that Amber can't go out during weekends. 'Hey you.' a new text message from Montana. Amber decides to ignore the text message and focus more on her work knowing if she fails these exams then she won't get to write the end year exams and that means staying at home.

Paul and Amber both share a love for the old school soul music, they listen to it whenever they find time to listen. For once Amber isn't missing Montana or even entertaining him regardless of the text messages he sends. Amber is enjoying her relationship however she wishes they could meet up more outside of school and really enjoy each other's company. Paul also wants it but respects that they can't do that so he doesn't really put pressure on it. Everyday Chloé and Amber grow closer as well as with Abby and Bianca. The days are long and slow and the Amber's friends are not into ditching classes or being rebellious. 'Ambs I have a business idea and I need your help.' another text from Montana. This time Amber decides to respond, 'What idea is that?' 'I need you to sell weed for me there at school, I need that extra money.' Amber takes time to think about this offer and in the meanwhile school work is getting too much for her and she feels the need to break up with Paul, it's extremely difficult for her as Paul has been nothing but sweet. Amber's mom and Paul's mom know each other but don't know that their kids are dating. Paul can notice something is wrong because these days Amber doesn't want to hold hands anymore and always comes up with excuses. "Paul I honestly don't think we can work out." Amber says so sad but wants to look strong so it looks like she has her mind made up. "Okay Amber, as long as we can still be friends.... But you know I love you." Just like that Amber is back to being single and Paul is back to being that one very supportive friend and super caring. Amber takes her time thinking about Montana's idea of selling weed at school. 'But Montana I'm gonna get busted when I have to pack the weed at home, what's the plan there. And I'm not as popular to be selling weed.' Amber sends the message to Montana. For a change he responds immediately. 'No Amber it doesn't have to be like that, I'll pack it for you and you'll take stock every morning. I mean people will like it my weed literally tatses like cheese. You can do this. Must I come to your school?' Amber is not having it at all and doesn't want to be busted selling weed, and having her parents find her with weed. ' Montana I can't do that sorry.' "Amber you know you're about to write exams now, so your father and I have decided to take your phone so you can focus on your exams properly. And you'll be using public transport to school too to save money." Wow Amber thinks to herself and all the struggles she'll go through with having to catch a taxi. Worse without her phone. But she agrees anyway. The exams start and they are quite difficult but Amber pushes through and when she writes the last paper she meets up with Montana. "Thought you would make a nigga starve to death." he says to Amber as soon as she's in the car. "Wow Montana, I'm also starving, I don't even have anyone to help me with this salt I have." she says giving Montana that seducing look. They get to Montana's and Amber is all over Montana and starts sucking on his ear and his neck moaning as she's getting fingered too. Before she knows it Montana has her sitting on his face and he is holding on to her thighs for dear life while eating her pussy out. In the background he has French Montana playing. Amber moans so loud with joy from what she's feeling and for the first time ever they don't use condoms and she trusts Montana. "Fuck this feels so nice." he says as soon as he is inside Amber. All she can feel is the deep strokes she is getting that are so pleasant. They go on for a few more minutes before Montana pulls out quickly exactly when Amber was about to climax. "This pussy would make me a father before I'm even ready." he says already going back to have some more fun. It's now time to take Amber back home, on their way they talk about maybe putting a label on what they are doing. "I don't think we need a label Ambs those things ruin stuff, what we have is good enough. Okay?" Amber just keeps quiet in hurt because she wants to be able to fully claim Montana. "I know I don't wanna die all alone, maybe you can be the mother of my kids Ambs. But we don't need a label." "Sure Montana, if that's what you want. But now that we went raw I don't want you sleeping with other girls." Montana laughs first but nods his hand and Amber goes off and goes straight to bed. It's a week later and finally at school the results for the preliminary exams are available. Amber is nervous to go take hers. "Come on babe I'm sure you did well hey, don't worry yourself." Chloé says trying to calm her down. Bianca goes in first to fetch her report and she did well she passed all seven subjects, Chloé goes in second and she passed as well with good marks. Amber goes in and she sees Promoted and that means she also passed all seven subjects, she is in disbelief of how she made it. She's super excited and she really goes out of her classroom happy. "See babes there's no reason for you to be scared, I knew you did it, you studied very hard." Both Bianca and Chloé say as they all celebrate that they have qualified for their final exams. Soon as Amber gets home she starts applying at University in hopes she will get a good response and her life can start next year. She applies at Monash University which is a private university, University of Johannesburg and as well as Unisa and North West University. They all await for her final marks of Matric. Amber focuses harder on her school work wanting to make it so she can finally go to Varsity and enjoy herself away from home and not in high-school anymore. Amber is a king her way to the toilet when she bumps into Frank and he asks her to the matric dance regardless of what happened between them. Amber agrees on the spot. "Amber what on earth were you thinking agreeing to go with Frank to Matric Dance, what if this is his way of standing you up?" Chloé asks as she's really confused why Amber would agree to this. "I so wanna hear what answer you have Amber." Bianca says as they wait for her to answer. "Well for a first guys I know what I'm doing and no I won't get laid with him or anything I just want to have a date to go with to the dance guys. Simple nothing else and if he does stand me up then we go back to plan A." "Amber you are really living the life hey, you're not afraid hey, I know I wouldn't do such a thing." Abby also joins in agreeing with Amber to go with Frank.

- "Mom as you know Matric dance is coming up and I'd like to go, I also have a date." there's total silence after that and Amber knows already that her mom is going to say no to the whole date thing. "Amber do you know that everything is done via a budget, first it was the matric jacket that you wanted now it's this matric dance that is going to cost us so much. You won't wear that dress anymore after that. You have to get your nails and hair done, new shoes, we have to hire a car or whatever for you. It's a lot Amber, on top of that you have a date. Your dad is just going to disagree even worse." Amber just keeps quiet more hurt that she won't get to go to her matric farewell. "I really can't say anything more, it's okay because I hear that it'll be a lot on you financially. It's okay." "I can at least promise to have your hair done when you're done writing and schools are closed." When Amber goes back to school she let's Frank know she can't go anymore to the dance and he thinks she's really playing games with him. "Ambs come one dude why not, I'm not trying to get back to you here. I just want us to have a good time together that's all I really like you." "It's not that Frank it's cause my parents said no to me going to the dance so I won't be there at all." "Oh well can we at least text Amber I miss you and I like you." "Well once I get my phone back I'll text you don't worry." they hug and go back to class. It's time for the exams and Amber tries her out most best to nail them too. Her friends send their dance pictures to Nicole's phone and they all looked quite stunning.
