Falling Unexpectedly [Completed]

29: The Confessions

Last night was something unexplainable.

I was still having a hard time processing on what happened but I tried ignoring it the best I could cause I knew nothing was going to come out of it.

I went to bed that night with a lot on my mind but fell asleep regardless.

The next morning, dad woke me up for breakfast and when I looked over at the time, it was six in the mornin.

It was weird having him come into my room and tell me that he made breakfast for us and wanted to eat together.

After I woke up more, I walked downstairs to the kitchen. I saw dad standing at the stove but Blake wasn't nowhere in sight.

Rubbing my eyes, I yawned before standing there and looking at him for a moment as he was cooking something.

Dad hardly ever cooks so it was definitely weird and it kept making me think that maybe I was in a dream.

"I know this is all.. a little strange." Dad said as I sat at the table. "I just.. we've been going through a lot lately and I know it's making you want to leave. I'm sorry, Reagan. I accept my faults and I am a terrible father. I want to make it up to you now and I promise things will get better."

"You know how many times you said that?" I watch as he was looking at me. "Too many times."

He sighs before going back to the stove. "I know, Reagan. I want to make it right this time and for now on. I accepted my faults."

Looking at him, I didn't know if I wanted to believe him or not. I've heard these lies before so I was just going to sit back and watch how it plays out.

As I was sitting there, I look over to see Blake walk in. I kept my eyes on her as she makes eye contact with me before walking past dad to the fridge.

"Morning baby." Dad smiles at her.

She looks over at him and smiles. "Morning." I watch as she had grabbed the milk from the fridge before making a glass then sitting down across from me at the table.

I look at her until she looks at me before I look away. I saw dad turn around and place whatever he was cooking onto a plate before walking to the table and placing it in the middle.

It was eggs and bacon.

After dad sat down and we all had our plates, forks and something to drink, we started to eat. I wasn't that hungry as I was pushing around the food on my plate and glancing up every few seconds.

That's when Blake and I made eye contact.

We held it for a while until I look away and opened the soda in front of me. I took a sip before listening to dad talk about how we all needed to do something this weekend.

After breakfast, I had to go get ready for school. I had to take a shower and I took a cold shower to wake myself up.

It did the trick.

I got out, wrapped myself in the towel before walking to my room and getting some clothes up for school. I saw the suitcase on the floor where I left it yesterday and I sighed as I got ready.

Standing in front of the mirror, I looked at myself before brushing my hair out after it dried. I was debating on if I should leave it down or put it up.

As I was looking at myself in the mirror, I heard a slight knock on the door then saw Blake walk in a few moments later.

"Hey." She said after she shut the door.

"What's up?" I look in the mirror before brushing my hair out more before putting it up into a ponytail. I look over as Blake was standing there, staring at nothing until her eyes landed on mine.
