Emily POV
Randy and I had been stood in the kitchen holding each other for quite some time when my dad finally joined us minus Uncle Steve. He clears his throat and we step back from each other, he walks over and places an arm around my shoulder before turning his attention to Randy.
"So how's your schedule looking this week Randy?" He asks
"I spoke to Steph on the way here and she gave me a fews days off to gosport everything out" Randy says
"Well then why don't you stay here for a couple of days" my dad suggests "give you and Emily some time together and me a bit longer with my girl"
"Thank you sir, I'd love to stay" Randy says with a big smile
"It's Mark and don't get too excited you're sleeping down the hall from her" he says
"Oh of course" Randy says "but you do know I've shared a bed with your daughter before"
"You've done what?" My dad says his expression changing to one of anger
"He was joking dad" I say nudging Randy in the ribs
"Yeah I was just kidding" Randy says moving me in front of him which makes me laugh
"Boy do not test my patience" he says "do you want a black eye to match your nose?"
"No sir" Randy says
"It's Mark" my dad growls "please stop calling me sir, it makes me sound like a damn school teacher"
My dad walks around me and grabs a bottle of water from the fridge "I'm going to go fix my truck" he says eyeing Randy before leaving the room.
"Are you trying to get yourself killed?" I ask "because telling him you had a one night stand with me is definitely the right way to go about it"
"Sorry I thought he knew" Randy shrugs
"The fact you're still breathing should tell you he doesn't" I say "he would have ended your career if he knew"
"Is he like this with all your boyfriends?" He asks
"Believe it or not your the first one he's allowed to stay" I say "but aside from that yes he's always like that, he's very protective"
"No shit" Randy chuckles "so are you ok with me staying?"
"Yes I am" I say wrapping my arms around his waist "just stop winding my dad up"
"Alright I promise" he says kissing the top of my head
"Will you be calling Alanna tonight?" I ask
"No tonight I just want to be with you" he smiles "I just want to enjoy having you back"
"Hmm you have a lot of making up to do you know" I smile
"Yeah and I would but your dad put us in separate rooms" he smirks
"Not like that" I say playfully swatting his chest
"I know and I will make everything up to you I promise" he says
Looking up at Randy I know he means it, his eyes tell me all I need to know just like they always have. His eyes have always been his give away, what ever emotion he tries to show facially if he doesn't really feel it his eyes tell me.
"Do you think your dad would mind em taking a shower?" He asks
"No of course not, got right ahead" I smile and he pressing a brief gentle kiss to my lips before leaving the room.
I decide to head outside to talk to my dad, I find him in his usual spot leaning over the hood of his truck.
"You really should just buy another one" I say
"Yeah maybe you're right" he chuckles "can't get the damn thing to start this time, where is he?"
"He's having a shower" I say "I came out to see what you want for dinner"
"Honey you don't have to cook you're a guest" he says pulling me into his side "let your old man take care of you for a change"
"Don't you mean Michelle?" I laugh "unless of course you've learned how to cook?"
"Cheeky little imp" he laughs "I'm perfectly capable of cooking"
"Thank you for letting him stay dad" I say wrapping my arms around him in a sideways hug
"Well I wasn't going to make him do that long ass drive straight after he'd already done it was I" he says "besides it'll be good for you two to have some time together away from everyone, you know get used to the new situation"
"And he really has to sleep down the hall?" I ask knowing full well I'm pushing my luck
"You bet your ass he does" he says looking stern "you two don't share a room in my house until you're married"
"I love that your old fashioned" I say
"Hey less of the old young lady" he laughs "and I know I'm behind the times but it's how I was raised and don't even think about sneaking him into your room becuase I'll be checking on you"
"Really dad? You don't trust me" I ask
"Of course I do, it's him I don't trust" he says
