"Dad, it's not my fault! I only had Sarah over and..." I started to lie to him before he cut me off,
"Yeah I bet you only had Sarah over." He said raising his voice at me.
"I promise that It was only Sarah." I tell him as I walk away from him and back into my room.
"I don't care who you had over Victoria, what happened to the camera!" He yelled at me as he followed me up to my room,
"I... I accidentally dropped it when I was trying to take a picture of us." I lied, I hate those pogues especially JJ Maybank, but if I told my dad the truth he'd raise hell on the whole island.
He just laughs and stares at me, "You're grounded until after your match on Friday."
"No, dad you can't do that please. I'll fix it, I have the money." I pleaded with him. All he did was continue laughing, it got to the point where the laughing got hysterical.
"I don't care if you have enough money for a new one, you have to deal with the consequences for your actions." His voice filled with more anger with every word he spoke before I finally gave up,
"Okay dad, I'm sorry." His anger has always gotten the best of him after mom passed away a year ago. He claims that i'm all he has left but most of our interactions are exactly like this.
He takes a deep breath before he pulls me into his embrace, "I'm sorry honey, you know I love you." I let out a quiet sigh before I respond,
"I know dad, I love you too." After the hug he turns for the door and tells me,
"Just get some sleep." I nod my head and give him a fake smile as he shuts the door behind him.
I pull out my phone and go to the group chat with Tyler, Rafe, Topper, Connor, Sarah and I and let them know,
Wed 12:53am
Me:
Dad freaked over the camera.
Can stay at one of your houses tonight?Five minutes later there was no response, after some contemplating I decided to sneak out the house.
***
The only thing I could do is wander. I think about going to the Cameron's house but when I look at my phone it read 1am.
"Shit that's why no one responded, no ones going to be up." I whispered to myself as I kept walking down the road, eventually I walk down closer to the cut. That's when I see it, the Behner's house. It was the place that I would go to regularly when I get kicked out of the house, but it just didn't dawn on me because of the time.
I walk down to the lake house, I know that they are sleeping so I decided that I would set up a chair on the dock to sleep, by morning one of them would have noticed me and take me inside.
As I set up a chair I notice that they left a cooler outside, as I open it I find that there's beer in there. After the night that I was having, I didn't even need to think twice about taking it, not because it even sounded good but just to get my mind off of the things that have happened.
As the night goes on I sit there looking at the stars, feeling a bit of relief and calmness flow over me. As I continue to stargaze I reach for the beer and accidentally bumped it with my hand causing it to shatter all over the dock.
"Shit" I whispered, I jumped up from the seat and make a break for the back of the house as the door swings open,
"Hey! You there! Who the hell are you and what are you doing here!?" I freeze as I hear Shane call out.
I slowly turn back around before replying, "It's just me Shane, I didn't mean to knock over the beer." I gave him a weak smile as well.
He just stared at me for a moment before sighing and telling me, "Just get inside, please."
I walk by him and smile, "Lovely choice of attire Shane, even though I thought you would be more of a boxer person." I give him a little laugh before I walk by.
"Ah yes, you know I would have dressed a bit more formal if I knew that guests would be coming by. I'd be in a suit and tie, just for you." He fired back at me with the same amount of sarcasm.
"Where's the nice brother at." I ask with a cheeky smirk on my face as he sits down and rolls his eyes.
"David we have a guest." Shane calls out to one of the back rooms as I sit down. A moment later out comes a stumbling David who almost fell down.
"Holy shit, are you drunk or just that tired?" I ask rushing over to him and wrapping his arm around my shoulder. He laughed at me and slurs his words
"Maybe just a little bit of both." He manages to get out as I sit him down on the recliner. "What are you doing here anyway?" I look away from them as David asked the question. I let out a sigh before responding,
"Dad lost his shit on me because some pogue destroyed my camera at a party." They exchanged a look to one another as I spoke up again, "Do you guys think I can stay here for a while? I'll have to make a stop by the house anyway to pick up my bags for the match on Friday." Shane speaks up first,
"Will you try and make amends with him?" This causes me to roll my eyes before responding,
"Well you know how he is, he blew up on me then after he just apologized and try to make it seem like everything is alright" They give each other one more look before Shane speaks up again,
"If he made it seem like everything it alright why would you need to stay here?"
"Because It's bullshit, he says that he is sorry but the next day he will attack me for the same exact thing." I give them both a pleading look before David speaks,
"Then you can stay as long as you need." I practically jumped off the couch before giving each of them a hug.
"Thank you both so much." They both smile as Shane speaks again,
"But we really need to get some sleep, we have work in the morning." Both Shane and David are fishermen, during the times they have to go international they left me a spare key to get into the house in case I get into an argument with my dad or an emergency.
"Ugh old people responsibilities." I tell them in a joking matter,
"Hey we aren't that old, but enjoy being a kid while you can because when you grow up you will want to go back." Shane tells me as he and David walk to their rooms,
"Why thank you, I truly see my life in a whole different light after that beautiful speech." Shane flipped me off as I hear David bust out laughing in his room. "Love you guys." I tell them as I get situated on the couch,
"Yeah yeah, night kid." I heard David call out.
