To my surprise, Daddy was standing right in the middle of the living room. "Daddy!!" I run into his open arms and hug tightly. "Hey my little Boo-Bear!" Oh, God, just hearing that makes me want to cry tears of joy. "Daddy! I missed you so so so so soooo much!" With tears in my eyes, we just sit there, hugging it out. When we finally stop hugging, he says something. "I'm so sorry that I've done this to you, Sky, I just couldn't bear being away from you any longer!" Well, it took ya long enough lol. "I'm just glad you're back" We both smile and laugh. "Well, I can't stay for long, you know that I can't be here when your Mom is here" Oh, right, I forgot. "Aww, you gotta leave so soon?" With a sympathetic look, Daddy looks at me and holds my shoulder. "I'm going to make this right, and that means we're gonna see each other a lot more often" Yay! I've been dying to see you ever since you left! "So, I have to go, but I'll be back in the morning to see you again" OMG, yay! "Are you gonna make your special breakfast?" With a smile he replies "Of course, Micky-Mouse pancakes it is!" Woohoo! I'm doing my happy dance right now if you were wondering. "Well, I'll see you in the morning then, Daddy!" Daddy just smiled and said "I'll see you then my little Boo-Bear" And with that, we hugged one last time and he walked out the door, into the snowy outdoors.

When Daddy left, I didn't really know what to do since I had to go to bed soon, so I just texted Preston and said 'Hey, I'm bored, entertain me! ψ(`∇')ψ' Waiting a couple minutes playing Flappy Bird, I heard the little noise and raced to my messages to read 'Aww, you're so cute with your little faces, but I'm quite bored myself, glad you texted :)' Ha, he's doing the faces now. 'Well, I guess we can be bored together ^^' After just a few seconds, I heard that ding again and excitedly read the message. 'How could I ever be bored around you?! You always have something that's going on and I'm always there to fix it XD' OMG I forgot to tell him about my dad! 'Oh. Mai. GERSH. You just reminded me of something I need to tell you! If you don't mind, would you meet me at our fountain tomorrow at 1:00?' Oh dear, I need to think of how to explain this to Preston... While I was in my thoughts, Preston texted back. 'Ok, is everything alright? I'm kinda worried now that you said that with everything that has happened in the past couple of days if you know what I mean'

Oh, I can totally see where he's coming from. 'Oh, no, but I can totally see why you'd say that, thing have been crazy lately... Don't worry though, it's not bad, I just thought that it would be better if we talked about it in person instead of just texting, ya know?' While I anxiously wait for Preston to text back, I go into the kitchen and grab a quick night time snack. *Knock Knock* Hmm, did Daddy forget something? I open the door and, to my surprise, see Preston with open arms. "*Gasp*! Preston! What are you doing here?!" I instantly hug him before he can answer. "Hey, Sky! When you texted that, I just couldn't resist coming over" Aww, how sweet of him! "Well thanks for coming over, I think I really needed it" We both chuckled and I motioned for him to come inside.

Taking off his winter gear, I laugh at the faces he purposely makes when trying to his multiple scarves untangled. "You're too funny!" When he finishes his little show, he comes over to me and hugs me. "I missed ya!" Oh, Preston Preston Preston. "You literally saw me like, twenty minutes ago" we both laugh and sit on the couch. "That may be true, but that doesn't mean that I didn't miss you!" I roll my eyes and we both chuckle. "So, you said you wanted to talk tomorrow at our fountain?" Oh, I just remembered that. "Yeah, I just felt like it would be better to talk in person and at our special place, this is actually kinda serious" His look turned serious with a bit of confusion. "Are you sure everything is ok?" He put his hand on mine and I hold it. "No, nothing like that, it's just something that I feel like you should know about..."

I didn't want to spoil it so I just stopped it there. "About what?" What should I say? "I think you'll just have to wait until tomorrow, Mr. Preston" I smirk and he puts his bottom lip out, like a kid that can't get his favorite candy. "Oh, c'mon, it's just a day!" He rolls his eyes. "Fine, I guess I have to be patient..." Chuckling at him, I kiss him on the cheek and he lights up bright red. "You always know how to cheer me up" I put my hand in his hair and shake it around before I go back to my once forgotten snack. "You know, you're such a tease" I laughed really hard at that one and decided to play along. "Yeah, but I know you love it" I still had my smile on my face. "Dang, you really do know me!" We both laugh really hard at that and I return to the couch with my cheese and crackers. "Ooo, may I have one?" I looked at him and smiled. "What do you think?"

He took a cracker and smiled. "Thanks, those crackers taste really good!" I finished up the cracker in my mouth before I started talking again. "Thanks, I'm not the best cook, but I know how to make some stuff" We both take another and don't say anything till we finish. "Well, whatever you can cook, I'm sure it's delicious" Finishing up the last of the crackers, I looked at the clock and realized it was already 12:00! "Woah, we've been up for quite a while" He looks at the clock and his eyes widen. "We've been here for an hour just talking and eating crackers?!?!" I laugh and dump the. Plate into the garbage. "I guess time flies when you're having fun" I just knew that he had to go home soon, so I wanted to do something before he left. "Since I can tell you need to leave soon, could I just have a goodnight kiss before you do?" I ask innocently. "Of course, Sweetheart" Sweetheart?! Aww! He's so cute!

I kiss him gently and look into his big blue eyes. He's so Gosh darn cute. "You know, you have the most amazing eyes" That mind reader! I was just gonna say that! "Well, if you think green is an amazing color" He chuckles and pulls me in for another kiss. This one was longer, but it wasn't like the one at the hospital. We both smiled and got up so we could say our goodbyes at the door. Getting his winter stuff back on, I go back to thinking on what exactly I should say to him tomorrow. Hmmm... "Um, Sweetie?" Oh! I guess I zoned out. "Oh, sorry, just zoned out" I opened the door and said. "You know, I probably would have been a lot less happy if you never had come into my life" He smiles. "I could say the same thing about you" We hugged one last time and I watched him go down my snow-filled driveway.

Well, what do ya know, looks like my two favorite people on Earth just came over to my house in the same day. I think that's a good day. If I've ever heard of one. I go back inside and get ready for bed, still trying to decide what to tell Preston tomorrow.
