Dad? [zayn malik ddm fanfiction]

Chapter 6// Shot down hope

I peeked into the kitchen after hearing uncle louis and uncle niall talking, and saw uncle ni closing my sketch book.

I then walk in and say,

“Hi guys.” They both turn around.

“oh hey rox.” they both respond.

“What are you guys doing?” i question

“just getting something to eat.” Uncle ni says.

“oh ok, would you like me to fix you guys something real quick?” i ask.

“uh sure.” louis says and they both walk out into the living room.

I let out a breath that i didn’t realise that i was holding in.

I quickly put some chips into a bowl, and put some of the pizza rolls in the oven.  As they were in the oven i got out some marinara sauce and warmed it up in the microwave.

Once the pizza rolls were finished, i took them out of the oven, and put them on a dish, with a little bowl of the sauce next to it.

I bring out the food to the boys and set it down on the coffee table.

“Wow. Thanks roxy.” uncle liam says. i smile,

“no problem. do you guys want something to drink? Soda, beer, water?”

“i’ll take a soda” liam says.

“Me too please!” uncle harry says aswell.

“Beer please” uncle ni says with a smile.

“Waters fine with me.” uncle lou says.

“Dad? would you like anything to drink?” i ask him, with a hint of hope in my voice.

The boys have taken a bit of notice to him ignoring me, so they would be just as surprised as i would be if he answered.

He just stared at the tv screen ignoring my question, all the hope was drained from my eyes, hurt filled them.

“i’ll bring you guys your drinks..” i say softly.

I walk into the kitchen and get the 2 sodas, 1 beer, and 1 water for my uncles.

I go back to the living room, and hand them all their drinks, except for dad.

“call me if you need anything..” i say quietly.

“you wanna watch the game with us love?” uncle liam asks. I shake my head,

“No i don’t wanna disturb your guy time..” i say quietly, and head up to my bedroom with all my things.

Once i get to my bedroom, i fall onto my bed, and cry quietly into my comforter, and soon enough, i fall asleep with mascara filled tears on my cheeks.

When i woke up, it was around dinner time. I went to my bathroom and cleaned the dry tears off of my face with a makeup wipe.

Then, there was a knock at my door.

“roxy honey, it’s time for dinner.” my mum called through the door.”

“not hungry.” i replied as i walked back to my bed to lay down again.

“You have to eat something.” she says.

“mum i’m not hungry. please don’t force me to eat anything.”

“Fine.” she sighs.

Going downstairs, means seeing dad, and seeing dad means i get ignored. I’ve already been shot down in hope once today, i’m not trying again. Why? because tomorrows a new day, and today is finished.

        I don't feel like being yelled at either, since that tends to happen alot anyways.
