Slowly Fading Away (Sequel to Your My Everything, Love)

Chapter 6:"Family" time failure

Ariana's POV

I had a picnic basket filled with crackers, salad, and 3 wattahs. This was gonna be a surprise for Ariel. While I was packing some napkins Frankie walks into the room.

What are you doing sis, Frankie says and peeks inside the basket. I am packing stuff for lunch today. Sean, Ariel, and I are having a picnic.

And why are you torturing your daughter, Frankie says and gives a chuckle. I'm not torturing her, I'm trying to help Sean and Ariel get along.

I see, Frankie says and closes the picnic basket. Well hope you have fun, Frankie says and walks around. Hope you have fun torturing your daughter, Frankie mumbles and walks away.

I heard that , I shout to him. I know, he replies. I roll my eyes and put on some lip gloss. Then the doorbell rings.

I open the door and it was Sean. Oh hey, I say and kiss his lips. Oh hey. So did you tell Ariel yet. No I just told her to get dressed and I'm gonna tell her when she comes down. Ok, Sean says and takes a pic of the basket.

Mom I'm ready, Ariel yells while running down the stairs. She had a mini black chanel backback, and wore a floral dress.

She gave me a smile and when she saw Sean she just rolled her eyes.

So um were taking you on a picnic, I say to catch Ariel's attention. Nah its ok I'm not hungry, Ariel replies. No sweetie this is for lunch, I continue. Ok, Ariel says. Ok so let's go, I say and we head to the car.

*lunch time*

It was now 2 pm and we were on a hill eating food from the picnic basket. Sean and Ariel were quiet and I was doing most of the talking.

So sweetie, do you like hanging out with your daddy, I say so someone could start talking.

Sure, she says with sarcasm. Honey don't give me attitude, I reply to her rude comment. I will continue if you don't force me to call him my dad, Ariel says and stomp towards a far tree.

I'm sorry, I mouthed and walked up to Ariel. Kitten, what was that all about, I say.

This. This is all wrong. I'm sorry mom, but I just don't want him to be my dad, I say in tears.

Honey that is your dad, I say.

No mom that isn't. If he was my dad he would look like me and I would actually like him.

Ok so step dad it is, I tell my daughter.

Mom you don't understand. I want my real dad. I want to see him and have hugs. I want to have family time with my real dad, not a fake. Ariel says in tears.

Sweetie, don't cry, I say and wipe her tears. Soon you will accept my boyfriend as your dad if you talk to him, I say and give her a kiss on the forehead. And Btw he isn't fake, he's real.

Whatever , Ariel says and goes into the car.

I start to tear up a little. I wiped my cries and packed all the stuff so we could all go home.

* at the Grande's household*

I had just got home and Ariel knocked out on the couch. I headed to the kitchen and started to write some things on a piece of paper. Then Frankie came into the kitchen.

Frankie you don't know what a day I just had, I say and put my head on his shoulder. Can this day get any worse, I comtinue.

I think it will, Frankie says. I bring my head up and give him a "oh no" look.

What, I ask.

Give this chapter a vote and comment. It would make my day <3
