The Secret Child (Axl Rose FanFic)

Part 10.

I woke up fairly early the next morning to my dad knocking on my door.
"Whattttt" I groaned out covering my head with the pillow.
"Come on, we have to head to the studio" he said with the door ajar.
"What time is it?" I said sitting up and rubbing my eyes.
"5am" I rolled my eyes before getting out of bed and walking to my closet. I slipped into my high rise distressed skinny jeans and my cropped white WrathChild America tshirt pairing it with my black and white converse. Quickly straightening my hair and throwing on some make up, I walked downstairs grabbing my phone along the way.

"Look who's finally awake" my dad said laughing a little.
"Don't let the face fool you, I'm sleeping when I get there" I said grabbing my Quay black aviators and walking to the door.
"So Jake...." He started
"Don't talk to me until I've had coffee...." I groaned with my head on the window.
"Fair enough, Dunkin Donuts?" He asked as I nodded my head. We ordered our iced coffee before hitting the road again to Slash's place where we walked inside and downstairs.
"Hey man what's up" Axl said greeting everyone.
"Not much! What's up with her?" Slash asked as I sat on the couch curling up in the corner ignoring everyone.
"Being a cranky teenager? I don't know" my dad laughed out.
"Just tired is all"
"Rough night again?" He asked looking at me as I smiled.
"Nope, not at all" I replied before he gave a confusing look and looked at my father for clarification who mouthed his sons name to him.

As I'm messing around on my phone the guys came out of the booth one by one before the studio door opened and Jake appeared. Once he realized I was there he smiled and sat down next to me.
"You didn't tell me you were coming" he mentioned as I looked at him.
"I didn't really have a choice this morning, dad drug me out of bed" I replied laughing. He looked up and saw My dad and his father staring at him.
"Well this is awkward...." I whispered to him as he laughed.
"Hey Axl?" He said as I turned to look at him.
"Yeah?" My dad replied now turned around with Slash looking at something.
"Can I take Lily on a date?" My eyes went wide as both men turned around again. My dad stunned and Slash dumbfounded looking at Axl for his answer.
"Uh...I mean, sure? I guess" my dad finally responded not knowing really what to say.

I looked over at Jake to see him smile and his eyes light up with happiness making me smile slightly at him.
"Just no funny shit, ok?" My dad said pointing at us as Jake shook his head.
"You got it" Jake responded giving a thumbs up before grabbing my hand a pulling me off the couch and out of the room.
Completely stunned, I couldn't contain my laughter as he proceeded to pull me upstairs to the main floor of his house.
Out of breath and winded from laughing so hard, we finally made it outside on the back patio where I took a seat on one of the steps to light a cigarette.
Sitting behind me I leaned my head on Jakes chest as he took a drag of his own smoke.
"Well that went smooth" he finally said making me look up at him.
"Ya think? Did you see the look on his face?" I replied to him.
"Honestly, I thought he was going to kill me at first. Your dad can be hard to read at times."
"True, just don't fuck around and maybe you'll keep your life" I said sarcastically but at the same time serious.
Looking down on me he smiled.
"I don't think we'll have a problem there"
