An Unforeseen Love

full of surprises

Kyle and I have been talking for a few days. Tonight I am going to my dad's to Stay the night. Well he's my step dad but he's been the only father figure I have had since I was 1. Yeah him and my mom are divorced so technically he isn't my dad anymore but that doesn't change anything. He is my dad and I love him. He's always been there for me and I don't care if him and my mom are divorced.

Later that night while I am at my dad's Kyle and I are still texting. I had a few shots with my dad so I really wasn't wanting to text. I wanted to hear Kyle's voice....I needed to. I can't explain it but I needed to hear his voice. So I gather all the courage and strength that I have left and ask him:

"If your not busy do you want to call me....?" I am so nervous as I send this text to Kyle but I am just hoping that he will call me.

Before I knew it my phone was ringing and he was calling. The entire time we are talking I have the biggest smile across my face. My dad starts to talk to Kyle and all I can think is damn dad please don't embarrass me. For a while we are all talking and joking. This is exactly what I needed. A night full of laughs and relaxing.  Wow. I can honestly say I am relaxing and I'm not worry about when I am going to be punched next.

Out of no where my dad says

"Becca, when are you going to tell this guy that you like him?"

"Really dad! What the hell? Why would you ask that."

"Well because you have been smiling from ear to ear since you guys started talking. You like him don't you?"

"Omg! Dad! Fine yes I like him more than just as a friend."

"Okay, Kyle do you like my daughter?"

All I can think is omg dad please stop. Your going to ruin my friendship. I said don't embarrass me and that's exactly what you are doing. Really. Dad stop.  I don't say this because I kinda want to know what his answer is going to be. I don't know what is going on with me. I want to know what his answer is but at the same time this could mess everything up. 

"Yes sir, I like your daughter very much."

"So Kyle, when are you going to ask my daughter out?"

When I tell you that I turned 50 shades of red I'm not kidding. I swear you could see me from Mars. 

"Well sir as soon as we hang out I plan on asking her out."

Like what the fuck is even happening right now. I didn't even know that he liked me like that. I mean yes we have been talking none stop and hangout all the time at work now. But I don't want to get hurt.  Plus when he finds out what I have been through he is just going to lose interest anyway. I mean what kind of guy would want to be with someone that has been beaten but hasn't told anyone about it.

Then my dad says something else that surprises me.

"Kyle,  what are you doing right now?"

"Um, just playing video games. I'm not doing anything really."

"Do you want to come over and hang out with us? Maybe have a drink with me."

When I tell you I thought I was fucking losing my mind I'm not kidding. Now, I haven't told my dad the full story of what happened with John. He just knew we broke up. But my dad never liked any of my boyfriends. Yes I know Kyle isn't my boyfriend but that's what makes this even more odd. What is my dad up to? Kyle agrees to come over which honestly I wasn't expecting. I looked like a complete mess. I mean I had a sweat pants and a lose shirt. I didn't have any makeup on and I defiantly haven't done anything with my hair. This is so not going to go good. Ugh. But I guess if he can't handle seeing me like this then it's not going to work.
