going out of state to visit a friend

guys I need help , I’m 20 & I live with my mom & stepdad.

, how do I tell my mom I want to go out of state for the weekend to visit a friend ?

She knows of him but has never personally met him .

I have the details planned out I just need to tell her and book the flight & hotel , everything else I’m good with .

I’ll be leaving Friday morning & coming back Monday morning & the airport is 1hr 20 mins from my house so either I would drive myself there & pay for parking or if she’s able to drop me off and pick me up which I don’t think she is & I have no one else to take me :) .

She & my stepdad are strict asf when it comes to boys & I’ll be going to visit a friend that’s a guy but honestly it’s just bc we haven’t seen each other in like 2 years and we want to spend some time together .

She’s very old school .

It’s the fact that I’m not asking her to go , I’m telling her I want to go , I’m scared of her reaction bc I’ve never done anything like this .
