Heather Chandler (Heathers) - Daddy Issues

Chapter 5 - Sleepover

#Heather Chandler's POV:

Finally school had ended, it was a extremely long day, Now it was time for me to go home and get everything ready for the girls to come stay. When I arrived home I looked in the living room to see if my dad was home, thankfully he wasn't- I sighed in relief then walked upstairs to my bedroom, awaiting the girls to come- Ofcourse they had to go home and pack since the sleepover was completely unplanned.

After about a half hour I heard the door knock, then I immediately stood up and walked down to the front door, opening it and seeing McNamara, Duke and Veronica standing there with their bags.
"Alright, come in." I said then turned around and walked back into my mansion. I noticed how Veronica seemed definitely interested in the mansion, she was speechless, I suppose that was because her family weren't as rich as mine, Duke's and McNamara's so therefore didn't have a big house unlike us, and besides, it was Veronica's first time in the home.
"Wow Heather, it's beautiful in here". I heard her say, then I smiled a bit.
"Thanks." Little did they know it was only nice and clean because I had cleaned up all my dads beer bottles and shit, truth being he doesn't do anything around the house at all.

"Is your creepy ass dad home?"
Duke asked then I looked at her and then looked around just to definitely make sure he wasn't in. "Uhmm- No" I nodded repeatedly.
"Alright let's go!" I shouted, trying to change the subject as quickly as possible, I'm pretty sure McNamara, Duke and Veronica noticed that I was acting a bit weird there. I chose to ignore it. We walked into the large living room and sat down.
"Any of you hungry!" I asked, truth being told I didn't care much but I have to offer considering I basically forced them to stay over. The only reason I asked them to stay over was because it was Friday night and my dad usually would drink a whole lot extra today which means he would get more aggressive.

"Yes! I'm starving!" McNamara smiles.
"Same." Veronica done the same.
"I guess so." Duke responded.
"Alright, good. I'll order us a pizza." I nodded then grabbed the telephone and ordered a large pepperoni and cheese pizza.
Once I hung up the phone I saw McNamara pick up the picture at my front door of me, my dad and my mom.
"Is this your mom?" She asks, and then I walked to her and looked at the picture and smiled. "Yep that's her, Mrs Chandler herself."
"How come she is never here then?"
Duke responded, then my smile immediately turned into a frown.
"Oh right— it's..." I looked down.
"It's fine Heather, you don't need to tell us." Veronica interrupted, then McNamara smiled.
"I agree, your mom is very pretty though, she definitely has your eyes."
"Thanks." I smiled.

(An hour later)
The pizza was taking a long time to come, and I could tell the girls were getting impatient, but thankfully I heard the door knock. I walked over to it and opened it, seeing one of the nerds from school holding it.
"Heather Chandler, it's Heather Chandler!" He smiled and jumped up and down in excitement. I took the pizza off him and shut the door immediately, truth being I couldn't be assed with him. I heard a knock again and him shouting from the other side of the door.
"You forgot to pay me."
I then shook my head, I hated paying the nerds cause they'd probably be telling all their friends and then they'd wanna work there and then there would be more nerds.
I just shoved a $20 note through the letter box, and then he took it and left.

(A few hours later)
It was getting quite late and I could tell that I was the only one who wane tired, I saw McNamara asleep cuddled into my red cushion, Veronica was struggling to stay awake, I saw her dozing off but continuously waking herself up, and then finally Duke was asleep but was sleep talking about some, and I quote 'bitch called Megan who stole her lip gloss.'  I then stood up and looked at Veronica.
"Tired?" I asked, smirking. She then looked up at me and chuckled. " I- kinda yeah." She said nervously. I then shook my head then grabbed her hand and walked into the hallway with her.
"Veronica, I can tell somethings wrong with you. "And I know I'm probably not someone you wanna tell your problems to, I mean I'm untrustworthy, right?"
She then shook her head rapidly.
"No, I trust you." She nodded.
"Good, then tell me why you're acting weird." I said again.
"I— Well." She stuttered and frowned, I could tell that whatever she was keeping to herself was completely eating her alive. I could tell she wanted to tell me, but couldn't.
"Okay," Veronica paused.
"So I may have some feelings for a certain person"
"A certain person?" I asked
"A girl." She responded.
"And well I just don't know what to do."
I looked at her, to be fair I didn't really expect her to say anything like that.
"Well, I just want you to know, I'm not against that sort of thing at all- if it's how you feel, it's how you feel. I can't do anything about that, just be yourself."
I smiled.
"Really?" She looked up at me.
"Absolutely" I winked.
"No matter who you are I'm sure your friends will still appreciate you, I certainly will—"
I said, but then got immediately interrupted by something that took me completely by surprise, she kissed me.

Once the kiss was done I looked at her and she looked back, it was just completely silence, I was still absolutely stunned by what had just happened, I didn't know if that was just so she could... experiment, or what? But still— it was... I don't really know what to even think, Veronica then snapped into her form of reality and shook her head.
"Oh my god Heather I'm so sorry!" She said then backed away, panicking.
"I shouldn't have done that! I had to right to, and I know you probably don't feel the same way. I'm so stupid!"
I still stayed quiet. I knew now though that it wasn't an experiment and that I was the girl she liked. I shook my head then my cheeks painted a rose colour.
"I- I uhm." I tried to speak, but nothing came out. "I understand." Veronica responded then backed up again.
"Wait! Veronica!" I grabbed her arm then pulled her into a hug.
"I- I like you too." I stuttered, it was the first time I had actually felt any sorts of feelings towards anyone, I mean my feelings for Veronica were always there but after the kiss it was like a wake up call telling me that Veronica was the girl I wanted to be with.
Once the hug was finished we both just looked at each-other, faces completely red.
"Wow, you two look flushed."
Duke spoke from the side, with McNamara standing behind her smiling.
"Shut up Heather." I folded my arms, hoping that they didn't hear any of the conversation.
