Out Of Town | A Blind Channel FF

20. Jekyll and Hyde

Suvis POV:

The next morning was one of the worst. I didn't want to leave. Not only would I miss Joonas, but all the friends that would go back to Oulu or Helsinki. It was the first time I felt accepted and as a part of a group.
Joonas tried his best to get me smiling, he was always full of positive energy.

We had an awsome breakfast together with the whole group before we checked out and hugged each other goodbye.
'So you will come over to Helsinki on the 15th right?', Aleksi asked me. I grinned and nodded.
'Don't forget our christmas dinner on the 17th...'

He got interrupted by Olli 'We can only hope they are able to leave the bed...' He was laughing, but got punshed by Joonas. 
'Boys, we should go now. Your train leaves soon.', Tommi said to the guys that had to go back to Helsinki.

I kissed Joonas goodbye and I had a really hard time to hold back tears. 'Bye honey', Joonas whispered against my lips and looked me deep in the eyes. 'Let us call later, mhh?'
'Yes', I simply answered whisperring as well and we kissed again before Tommi took him by his wrist and pulled him over.

I made my way home, all the time thinking about how to adress the news.
When I arrived I brought all things in and greeted my dad who stood at the door. 'Hei dad, good to see you!', I smiled and tried to hug him akwardly as he still had his arm tied up in front of his body. 'Good to have you back!', he replied.

My mom got to us now as well.
'Hei sweetie!', she smiled a little. We hugged as well.
We sat together in the living room.
'How was it?', I got asked by my dad.
'Awsome. It was hard with the double shows, but I loved it.', I answered.
'And when do you have to go again?', now it was my moms time.

'I go to Helsinki on the 15th. There is a show on the 16th and then there is the boat trip on the 18th. I will be back on the 19th or 20th, not sure yet.', I was honest.
'Oh well, that's a lot. But if you like it that much, I support you. I can't forbid it, you're old enough, hmm?', she tried her best to give me a smile.
'Thanks mom.', I said.

'Go travel, soon you will begin to study here in Vaasa. So use your option now.', my mother replied.
I swallowed. I didn't plan on studying in Vaasa. Even before Joonas and I happened, I planned to study outside of my hometown.

'Yeah, I want to apply for university in the next days.', I just said, I didn't say which university, but I was sure I wanted to study in Helsinki. There are better options for me and it is really flexible.
'We're so proud of you!', my mom was delighted now.

Ha, not long anymore.
I tried to smile, my heart was pounding and my hands sweaty.
'Is something bothering you?',my dad knew me so well. I was clearly daddy's girl.
'Maybe', I bit my lip. 'I...um...got to know someone.', I blushed.
'What do you mean, honey?'
'I.. have a boyfriend now.', I mumbled, now being red as a tomato.
'What?', my mom seemed being in shock.
'What? My baby girl is in love?', my dad smiled. 'Who is it? How did you get to know each other? Is it one of the crew?', he was so curious and placed a kiss on my cheek.
I had tears in my eyes.

My mom stayed quiet and just watched me.
'My boyfriend is a lovely and very positive guy. But no dad, he is not one of the crew members, sorry.', I pressed my lips together. I took a deep breath. 'It is Joonas, dad.' I looked at him to catch his emotions.
My dad wasn't shocked, what calmed me down. But he had no chance on speaking first.

'Whooo is Joonas? Vilho, who is Joonas?', she asked.
My dad layed his free arm around me to show me support and it helped me a lot.
'He is a really nice guy, love. He's part of the band actually.'
She wasn't happy, she was so not happy. 'A musician? Great. This is your fault, Vilho!', she said angrily.
'It's non of my fault or Suvi's fault. As long as she is happy with him, I am happy. You should give him a chance! I can't believe you are acting up like this! Your daughter had the courage to tell us she has her first boyfriend!', I never saw my dad like that before.

'Mmhh dad?', I tried to get inbetween.
'We made something for you. Look.', I showed him my phone and started the video we had made with the band and the crew. It showed us all together singing. After that a few of us said some wished and kind words. You could see Joonas holding me in his arms.
My mom sneeked a peek of the video. 'And this is your boyfriend? Isn't he to old for you?', she said.
'Please...stop it, finally!', my dad shouted.
'Both of you....shut up!', I heard my own voice out loud now. My parents stared at me in disbelief.

'Don't look like this! I can't hear your fights anymore. Stop fighting about my, MY fucking life, I have to live and decide on my own. I am going to work and study what I want and where I want. And if you can't support me, I'm sorry to leave you then. Think about it. I go back to my room now and decide tomorrow what I'm going to do.', I explained and let them both alone.

As I had reached my room, the tears ran down my face. I couldn't stop sobbing. Why was it so hard? Was it the wrong decision to go on tour with my dad? Was it wrong to start living?
Or was it wrong to fall for Joonas Porko and let my old life behind?
