How should i covenice her?

So me and this guy have been talking we live in the same state but since Texas is so big we live far apart. I have asked my mom if I could go and see him she said no. Then yesterday he asked me if I could go to one of his competitions so I sent her a text and asked if I could go and she doesn’t have to buy me anything for my birthday or Christmas. Me and this boy are REALLY close. And I wanna see him but I can’t drive and next year is when he can drive. So I really wanna go and see him and cuddle. We act like we’re dating.
