Ally's pov
"Hey dad" I said over the phone "hey hun what's up?" "When you come for dinner could you bring your truck not the Tesla I got to put my art stuff in and it won't fit in your super nice car" I said making him chuckle "yeah of course I'll be there at 7"

After the phone call I gathered everything together and put it in the corner of my apartment when I look at it I realize it's a lot of stuff.

Knock knock*
"You know you don't have to knock right?" I say opening the door "oh hi?" I questioned the person who was not my dad "hey ally umm sorry for showing up here unannounced" he said "it's cool Dan what's up?" I questioned the main question should be how did you get my address "it's my moms birthday in 2 weeks and I was wondering if you could paint something for her? I'll pay you" He questioned why couldn't he just of spoke to me at college "Um yeah I'm busy right now to discuss this um it shouldn't take more than a week so when we're back from break can we talk about it then and you don't have to pay" I said trying to not question about why he couldn't of asked Friday or how he got my address "okay that's sounds cool what's go you so busy now?" He asked "my dad is coming over he should be here any minute so could you please um leave? not to sound rude and all" I asked "yeah sorry okay I'll go see ya next week Ally" Dan waved bye and I shut my door okay that was weird.

Ten minutes later my dad walked through the door "hey hun" dad said walking in with bags of food that I will be cooking with after that deal we made with me paying for take out "hi dad" I said helping him out "wow thats a lot of art stuff" he said looking at the pill in the corner "yep" I replied "where's cat?" Dad asked "she left Friday to go to her family" I replied starting to boil some water "hey I bumped into someone on my way up" dad said "yeah who was it?" I asked "it was a lad his name was Dan?" He questioned "oh right" I responded "yeah he said he just came from yours asking a favor and he recognized me and told me that you guys are friends at college and stuff" he explained grabbing a beer "oh right yeah I guess we're friends" I said putting the spaghetti in the pot of water "what's up?" Dad asked "Dan is just a little bit outgoing I think it could just be me over thinking things as usual.. I just he's just started coming into my life on Friday and yeah he seams to be getting to close with me" I said looking away from dad "hunny is there any chance that maybe your being to paranoid it makes sense with your past to be questioning everything maybe your being anxious hun you struggle letting people in especially men so maybe you should get to know him and I don't know maybe you guys will become friends" dad said hugging me "okay I'll try" I said nodding.

After we ate pesto spaghetti with of course pesto eggs which dad claimed he makes the best so I had him do the eggs we sat down and spoke for a bit and then started loading my art stuff. "Do you really need this?" Dad asked pointing to the A1 canvas that's half painted "yes dad that's my main part of this finally piece" I said laughing "okay okay I know I was messing"

In the car dad was blasting out songs to which I sang a few "you know you should make a thing out of singing hun" dad said "I can't do that I'm too shy" I replied looking down at my fingers again.. crap he's just reminded me I have a small gig at the local bar next weekend. "Hey just letting you know I'm meeting up with cat on Saturday so I'll be back late ish" I say to dad lying he doesn't need to know about my singing "yep of course that's good with me" dad said nodding "cool" I say.

Once we got home dad took my stuff up to my art room while I put my clothes in my room and then walk into the art room after. I haven't been here for 3 months so it felt nice seeing all the paints splatted around and the old paintings I did. "It's good to be home" I say "it's good having you home even for a week" dad said kissing my cheek "I got an interview tomorrow morning but after what do you want to do?" Dad asked "I forgot your a movie star ummm I can get on with my art tomorrow morning while your interviewing I will probs be pulling a lot of all nighters but not tonight I need sleep but I can finish around 11am tomorrow then I have the rest of the day soooooo yeah could we just walk dodger and chill out?" I asked "yeah that sounds nice with me but don't so a lot of all nighters you need sleep" he said "speaking of it's late and I'm tired" I said smiling at him "okay give me a hug and go to bed then" dad said to which I did as he asked "I forgot how tall you are now I used to have to lean down" dad said laughing a little while I nodded we said our good nights dodger slept with me.

Before I could nod off I got a message
