His sunflower

chapter 6

Abby pov

I'm in 5th period which is one of the many classes I have with Josh and Johnathan. Ever since Josh and I became partners we talk a lot more. I haven't figured out much about him but we talk more. He also smiles at me a lot and let me tell you his smile is to die for.

As you know Josh is an athlete and if you didn't, now you do. I don't remember if I have mentioned that part yet. Anyways he plays a lot of sports. So he is very popular. All the cheerleaders flirt with him and basically everybody crushes on him. Me included.

There's this one girl who I strongly dislike. She loves to cause drama. She'll make up rumors for the fun of it. She'll ruin someone's life if she got bored enough. It happened once. This freshman got in her way and she ruined that poor freshman's life. The freshman ended up moving schools. It was bad.

Anyways she has never liked me. She luckily has never done anything but she could. So I stay out of her way.  until lunch. I was walking and texting and with my luck got in her way.

"Abby god what is your problem!"

"I- i'm so so sorry Becca I- I didn't mean too" I have to act nervous so she doesn't get the urge to show me I have something to be nervous about.

"I- i- i don't care" she said mocking my stutter

Chelsea her little pet decided to join this conversation

"ew what a loser go away" yea she's not the brightest

I just walked away hoping Becca will let it go. She probably won't but i'm still hoping she will. I did a little fast walk to my friends table.

"hey babe you okay i saw what happened?" Sierra asked me

"yea yea i'm all good" i say with a re assuring smile

So before I forget let me introduce my friend group. So we all know Sierra she's my bestfriend since kindergarten. She's about 5'4 and has curly brown hair. Her hair goes about mid back and she's skinny. Then there's Madison, she is a blonde and about 5'6. She's very smart and has GREAT style. I love her. Next we have Dylan, he's a jock but not a jerk. he's almost 6'2 and has a very boyish humor. His hair is black with curls and he's very tan. He's basically my type in a nutshell. If he wasn't my bestfriend who I considered my brother i'd probably have a crush on him.

After lunch we walked off to class. The rest of the day went very quick. It was also easy. I was waiting until I could get home so I could watch the new season of Cobra Kai.. Sierra and Madison came home with me to watch it. Dylan had practice so he couldn't even though he wanted too.

When I got home I didn't see my moms car in the drive way which was not normal. I checked my phone to look for any messages or missed calls from her but nothing. I tried to stay calm and think positive. Jacob probably knows where they are. I walk inside and Jacob is watching a movie about cars or something.

"yo Jake where's mom and Matt?"

"uh I think they left for the airport"

"what why?"

"business meeting or something" he said shrugging

Ok so mom and Matt left together on a sudden business trip? That's not at all suspicious. I try not to panic too much and just text my mom making sure she's okay.

A: Hey ma everything okay?

M: Yes honey everything is fine. Last minute business trip. Figured you'd want Matt with me instead of with you. Be back in a few days hon. love you.

A: Okay mom have fun and BE SAFE! love you❤️

Okay so she's fine. she's fine Abby calm down. She took Matt with her to keep me at peace. She's the best.

Then I suddenly remember I was supposed to meet Josh in about 15 minutes. I think about just skipping Cobra Kai and hanging out with him but we're already here so I shoot him a quick text explaining something last minute came up. I know it's inconvenient but sometimes you gotta play the 'hard to get' card.

Ur hot partner 😵‍💫

A: Hey so something really last minute came up. I'm so sorry but I can't meet up today. Tomorrow good??

J: Yea for sure. Things happen. Hope everything's okay. Tomorrow same time and place?

A: Yup sounds good. Thanks for understanding. See ya tomorrow :)

J: See ya!

I walk into the kitchen with a smile on my face and then I put in a frozen pizza big enough for all of us in the oven to eat while watching Cobra Kai. After the timer went off we settled into the living room and got comfortable knowing we were going to be there for a while.

*Mia (mom) Pov* (surprise shawty)

Jacob was home and Abby was at school. I'm currently in my home office with Matt. Ever since Matt suggested he stayed here to bring the family back together things have been weird. I know for a fact he doesn't care if this family is together or not. He wants something.

After hearing that little argument Jacob decided to have with Matt in the middle of the house about hitting Abby I can barely look at him. How could he hit our daughter. It's just so wrong. And then he comes to me saying he wants to join the family?

I wanted to say no I had to protect my kids but he said a lot of things that made it impossible to say no to. He said he'd do a lot worse than a slap across the face if I didn't allow him to join the family. I'm scared for this family.

I got a phone call saying I had to attend a last minute business trip, I work at a venue place for these important events, they allowed me to bring Matt because I can't leave him with the kids while i'm gone. I can't take my eyes off him. He wants something and i'm going to figure it out.

I didn't leave a message for Abby but I told Jacob knowing he'd relay the message. I told him to tell Abby not to worry and that everything was going to be okay. He agreed to pass the message on and then me and Matt left.

We were about to board when Abby messages me asking if everything is okay. It doesn't take a genius to know that she's suspicious of this whole sudden business trip. She probably assumes Matt threatened me or something. I wish I could tell her why I let him "re-join" the family but that just puts her in more danger with him. She just needs to trust me.

The plane takes off and I get very fidgety. It's a 3 hour flight and I have to sit next to the man himself, Matt. I just keep my focus on my phone and laptop unless the flight attendant comes to our row. The flight goes somewhat fast but it also felt so long. But anyway here we are in Chicago for my sudden business trip with my ex husband Matt. Wishing I could he home in Apopka, Florida. How fun this trip will be.
