We pulled into the parking lot and I practically jumped out of the car and sprinted into the building. Nick payed for an hour and said we could do more later if we wanted and we went in.
Lets go there first." He pointed to a big floor of separated trampolines and trampolines up the walls. "YAY!" I screamed grabbing his hand and running to the entrance jumping up and down doing flips and jumps and tumbling around. "Whoa calm down monkey, here try this!" He ran up the wall and back flipped off.
At first I was amazing but then i acted like it was the easiest thing in the world. "Psh sure, I can do that, thats easy." He cocked an eyebrow but watched as I ran up the wall tumbling backwards and completely failing the flip. We both burst out into laughter. "Ya, easy huh?" "Shut up." I said still giggling with Nick, but then his face changed a little.
At first I was confused but then I jumped up and shoved my sleeves down trying to act like nothing happened. The band-aids peeled off when I didnt notice from the sweating and my sleeves rolled up! "Um come on lets keeping jumping!" I said nervously. "Wait Aria, can I see your wrists?" Nick asked slowly and a bit confused. "Umm no why would you need to see that? Lets keep jumping! Come on I was having a lot of fun with you daddy!" I said in a pleading I'm-daddy's-little-girl voice. "Aria just let me see come on." He said in a calm comforting tone.
He must have known exactly how to handle this situation from experience with Demi which oddly made me feel a bit safe. Daddy please can we just talk about this at home?" "Oh we will, but I need to see Aria, come on its okay."
"Fine..." I said slowly walking to him. He lifted my sleeves up and held out my wrists revealing the cuts I had made this morning. He looked hurt but concerned at the same time. I felt guilty just looking at him so I turned away while he examined the cuts.
"Why Aria?" I just looked down and shook my head. He pulled me into a hug and told me "Everything will be okay baby, its okay." It made me feel good so I hugged him back. "Im sorry daddy, I dont know why I did it, I was in the bathroom getting changed and I just....I couldnt resist." "Its okay Aria, but you need to come and tell us when you have urges okay? I dont want to see you hurting that beautiful skin of yours." "Okay..I promise." "Good." He smiled. "Now lets have some before we have to go home, we'll talk about it later okay?" "Okay!"
I was growing fond of Nick. He was a really good dad and knew how to handle things. This bonding thing is bringing us way closer then i imagined it would.
