Meet your daughter

Meet your daughter

Charlis POV:
I had to tell him... I really had no choice... what else is he supposed to think when my parents show up with a random girl... I didn't wanna lie.

This could ruin us, maybe it will bring us closer but maybe I don't want it too. Lydia isn't a part of my life and she never will be

When I found out I was pregnant I was 18 and I was scared, chase and I had broken up a month prior. I didn't know what to do and I knew I couldn't have a baby and go to collage, I couldn't live any of my life if I was a teen mom. I knew my parents were horrible parents but part of me didn't want my child to have a good childhood... I was being selfish and I didn't want Lydia to go to a foster home because I knew that would be 1000 times better than having my parents as parents.

I was jealous, so I made a selfish and impulsive decision. I gave her to my parents because I couldn't bare the thought of her having a better childhood than me.

I left after that and I came maybe once or twice a year to see her.
Lydia is a smart girl, and I wish I gave her the life she deserved. Even though I didn't abuse her, I still managed to be a worse parent then my own.

Chases POV:
My- daughter?
Like mine? I'm the father? She's my daughter? No?!
No what?! That would be impossible?! Charli and I have only known each other for around a year- oh. high school.
I got her pregnant in high school without knowing?! It Cant be?! Charli wouldn't do that?? She wouldn't keep this from me?! She wouldn't keep my own daughter a secret from me?!

I don't understand... How could Charli not tell me? She knew I'd help her through anything? Was I not trust worthy enough?!

Chase: "this could have changed my life Charli?! Knowing I had family?? Most of my family is dead and the rest won't talk to me because of what I did?? If I knew I had someone, anyone who was part of my family I would have never tried to commit?"

This girl could have changed everything. My life could have been very different right now

Charli: "you don't understand chase?! I was scared and I was still in school? I was an 18 year old pregnant girl who didn't have a boyfriend? We were both too young for this? It was for the best and you know it?"

The best??? I think I'd know what's best for myself? This wasn't the best for me? This was best for her

Chase: "why is she with your parents."

She better not say what I think she'll say.

Charli: "they raised her..."

No?! She's joking right?! She let them raise our daughter??
They are horrible parents?! They physically assaulted Charli?! What makes her think they wouldn't do the exact same thing to Lydia. They probably have and I'm blaming it on her. Maybe she's didn't do it but she might as well have.

Chase: "how could you Charli."

She had the power to make her daughters life decent but she didn't

Charli: "I'm sorry chase! It was a stupid decision! I didn't know what I was doing??"

She had the last 8 years to fix her mistake but she didn't

Chase: "you knew exactly what you were doing Charli?? You knew how badly your parents treated you?? Is that what you wanted for your daughter?"

I don't believe this... I still don't believe I have a daughter? And I missed her childhood

Charli: "you don't understand?? Once I gave her to my parents they had legal custody over her! I couldn't take her back!"
Chase: "you're a lawyer charli?! You could have gone to court if you cared? But now our daughter has grown up without her mother or her father."

I understand if Charli didn't wanna keep the baby. I completely understand why she wouldn't want a kid when so many things were going on in her life but I would have been happy to take Lydia? I could have been her dad and charli could have done her own thing, but instead she gives her to her parents. She would have been better in a foster home then there.

Charli: "could we talk about this later? Just meet her. We don't need to make a scene right now."
Chase: "fine, we will talk later. I'm disappointed in you Charli, I thought you were better then this but I guess I was wrong."

We walked back over to her parents

Chase: "hello mr and mrs D'amelio."

They waved
The girl walked over to Charli and hugged her

Lydia: "hello Charli"
Charli: "hey Lydia. You've grown a lot since the last time I saw you"

When is the last time she saw her?

Lydia: "how are you"
Charli: "I am good, um. I actually had to introduce you to someone"

She looked at me

Charli: "Lydia, this is Chase"

She put her hand out

Lydia: "nice to meet you chase"
She shook my hand

Her manners are very good for an 8 year old-

Charli: "Chase is your father..."

She looked back at Charli

Lydia: "my father?"

She nodded

Lydia: "the one you said abandon me?"

Excuse me, what??? She told her I abandoned her??
If anything Charli abandoned me??

Chase: "no no no no, Lydia I did not abandon you- Charli she-"

I looked at Charli and she gave me the please don't tell her look

Chase: "charli she um-"

God dammit. I'm not gonna tell her.

Chase: "I didn't abandon you. I was in a mental hospital at the time"

That's a lie, I was in a mental hospital later. But Im not gonna tell her the truth because I don't want her to be mad at Charli for not telling me about her.

Im still very mad at Charli for multiple reasons but I'm not gonna ruin her relationship with her daughter because of our problems

A/n
Welp, this chapter was pretty much just chase being mad at Charli for what she did.
