Kalice and Owen giggle walking into their house cuddling with each other.
"Wanna go to sleep or..."
"I want a massage my feet are in pain let me tell you." Kalice said and Owen picked her up and kissed her lips. He set her a comfortable spot on the couch as he massaged her feet. She moaned in relaxation.
"This feels good. You should do this More often."
"Deal as long as you feed me and do my laundry and massage my shoulders I'm in." Owen said and Kalice happily agreed. Owen then looked at her and wanted to ask her a question. He was shy and Kalice sensed it making her sit up and take his hand . She often pampered the shy Owen like a mother in a way.
"What is it?"
"I wanna ask you something."
"Anything.*
"Would you ever consider... going away for a while with me?" Owen asked and Kalice saw his cheeks turn red. She kissed his lips and said Yes. He lay her back. "That easy?"
"Only for you Owen." She swore to him with her eyes.
"Only for Me?"
"Yes." She assured him before he kissed her lip's passionately.
...
"No." Jason said.
"Dad! I graduated already." Kalice argued.
"Kalice graduation is next week." Jason corrected her and she rolled her eye's. "excuse me?" Jason said and she mumbled an apology under her breath.
"Well you know I'm going to so why can't I go?" Kalice asked.
"Because I have no way of making sure your safe!" Jason shouted and Kalice groaned and rushed downstairs with Jason behind her.
"Mother!" Nora wined and Nora sighed looking at them both. The two began talking at once arguing with each other and it woke Kalvin, Norson, and Layla. Nora held Up her hand and they got silent.
"Kalice your father's right. But Jason Owen has done fine protecting Kalice." Nora said in a calm and gentle voice.
"I don't Care she's my daughter! " Jason said and Kalice left the room without them noticing in frustration.
"She's mine too! And she is 18! AND has good grades! The top of her class! And I think she has More than a Right to go!" Nora shouted. Jason shook his Head.
"I don't trust This." Jason said.
"Okay fine but don't Cage her because she's just gonna go anyway!" Nora told him and they both looked and Kalice was gone.
"Oh yeah Kalice is gone." Kalvin said stating the obvious on purpose. Jason ignored the sarcasm and went outside seeing Kalice getting on her motorcycle and he got in his car. He called her and she answered.
"Get back in the house now."
"No ."
"Kalice I'M SERIOUS DAMN IT!"
"I CAN'T HEAR YOU!" Kalice shouted turning up her motor and road away. Jason started the car and she went faster challenging him. He drove skillfully after her and the race began. Jason called her once More.
"If I win! You stay in town. "
"Fine where are we going?"
"End of town."
"Perfect." Kalice said getting a head start. He cracked his fingers and drove fast drifting the road. Kalice Saw him pass her and look at her. She gasped and drove behind him and she didn't hesitate to use the upcoming road bump to jump over his car. Jason saw and She flicked him off laughing.
Travis Saw and he called Nora Right away.
"Your husband and your daughter are racing to the end of town. It's hell of a race." Travis said before hanging Up. Owen Saw kalice and Jason passing and he was shocked they were being this reckless! Owen got in his car and followed them. Jason did a quick spin missing Kalice going straight ahead of her. She couldn't let him win. She then balanced herself on one wheel as Owen taught her making her go as fast as Jason. The Town was on the edge cheering and Kalice by an inch was a head of her father making it the end of the towns sign. She stopped and Jason quickly turned and went back home hating he Lost.
.....
Kalice came back home.
"The answer is still no."
"You said if I won..."
"You cheated."
"And you didn't??" Kalice shot back. The two stared Each other down and Layla was scared to death.
"Your Not going. And that's final."
"I won fair and square! I'm going!" Kalice said and turned to leave.
"If you Walk out that door Kalice Truth Noble these doors won't be opened to you anymore!" Jason threatened making Kalice stop. She turned to him and took off her watch and threw it on the floor.
"IF YOU WANNA BE PETTY I CAN DO IT JUST AS PETTY. "
"THIS ISN'T A COMPETITION!"
"IT'S NOT? IN THAT CASE LET ME GROW UP DAD!" Kalice shouted and before he Said anything She left slamming the door driving off. Layla looked at her father. He picked up her watch.
"What was that?" Nora asked coming inside looking upset.
"Nothing of your concern."
"Oh I'm sorry if I overstepped but your Dead wrong for what you said to her Now go get her back."
"No!"
"Kay. I'll get her myself. But if you like the idea of your pregnant wife going 1,000 miles by herself is fine then I will be on My Way." Nora said and she turned to leave. Jason stopped her and decided to leave instead. He tried calling Kalice but she didn't answer. Owen called him.
"Is Kalice with you?" They both said and sighed.
"Meet me at the bridge I think I know where she is ." Jason said. They met up And went to search the cemetery. She kicked the old stone she put where she wanted to be buried which was by Jason. Jason was beside liana and seeing This killed Jason.
"I guess I'm a bad father." Jason said kneeling.
"No. Your not." Owen said sitting next to him. "You're just trying to protect her that's not bad at All." Owen told him and Jason shook his Head.
"I just can't protect her when she's that far I'll never fucking sleep. " Jason admitted and Owen sighed.
"I should've Asked you first. My apologies."
"You should have. But ....I still would've reacted the same. I still her as My little girl. " Jason said and he heard sniffling. He ignored it knowing who it was. "she's everything to me. It's true what they say a father's first love is his daughters. If anything happened to her..... you'll have to lock me up. " Jason told Owen honestly.
"Lock you up?"
"Don't question it just do it when the time comes. I'll never stop causing hell until I watch whoever hurt her suffer. That goes for everyone in the Noble house.... including you." Jason said patting his back. Owen cleared his throat feeling intimidated. He knew Jason wasn't joking it was a promise.
"Guy's." A familiar voice said shyly coming from behind the grave stone. She was bruised and her leg was bleeding a lot.
"Kalice? Kalice what happened?" Jason asked as him and Owen rushed to her.
"I fell off my bike." Kalice whispered. "On purpose."
