Keegan Allen, my father?!?!

Chapter 22

    Cara's POV
   I wake up and shield my eyes from the sun seeping in through the light blue with navy blue curtains. My eyes are sore as I recall the earlier events. Shuddering at the memory of me having such a terrible attack and having to be comforted by Ally. Slowly creeping out of bed, I walk past the mirror, my eyes a bloodshot and puffy, tear tracks evident on my cheeks. Immediately heading to the bathroom to wash my face, once I finish washing my face I sit on my bed with my guitar, trying to select a song for me to play. Lost Boy!
     " There was a time when I was alone
Nowhere to go and no place to call home
My only friend was the man in the moon
And even sometimes he would go away, too
Then one night, as I closed my eyes
I saw a shadow flying high
He came to me with the sweetest smile
Told me he wanted to talk for awhile
He said, "Peter Pan—that's what they call me.
I promise that you'll never be lonely."
And ever since that day...

I am a lost boy from Neverland
Usually hanging out with Peter Pan
And when we're bored we play in the woods
Always on the run from Captain Hook
"Run, run, lost boy," they say to me.
Away from all of reality

[2x]
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free

He sprinkled me in pixie dust and told me to believe
Believe in him and believe in me
Together we will fly away in a cloud of green
To your beautiful destiny
As we soared above the town that never loved me
I realized I finally had a family
Soon enough we reached Neverland
Peacefully my feet hit the sand
And ever since that day...

I am a lost boy from Neverland
Usually hanging out with Peter Pan
And when we're bored we play in the woods
Always on the run from Captain Hook
"Run, run, lost boy," they say to me.
Away from all of reality

[2x]
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free

[2x]
Peter Pan, Tinker Bell, Wendy Darling
Even Captain Hook
You are my perfect story book
Neverland, I love you so,
You are now my home sweet home
Forever a lost boy at last

And for always I will say...

I am a lost boy from Neverland
Usually hanging out with Peter Pan
And when we're bored we play in the woods
Always on the run from Captain Hook
"Run, run, lost boy," they say to me.
Away from all of reality

[2x]
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free" I sing. Suddenly, I recognize that Ally has just entered my room.
      "You feeling better, Hermosa?" She asks with a sympathetic smile.
      "Yeah, a lot." I smile at the small Hispanic.
      "So, the girls and I were wondering if you wanted to stay with us for, maybe, a week or two. How do you feel about that?" She asks nervously.
      "Why wouldn't I stay with Dad?" I ask.
      "Well, he needs to sort through some things." Sitting on my bed, she holds my hands.
       "I guess that's fine if it means it'll help Dad." I smile shyly. She kisses my forehead.
       "Great, so, do you want me to help you pack?" I nod and pull out a duffle bag. About five minutes later I am zipping up the bag and grabbing my MacbookAir and guitar to head downstairs. As I approach my father, tears fill my eyes, the thought of two weeks without him kills me. He was in that coma, gone, stolen from me, for so long. Who is to guarantee his safety? Hugging him tightly, I take the material of his shirt into my balled fists, fearing the fact that in a few moments I will leave him.
      "I love you, Daddy." My voice cracks as I whisper the four words to him.
      "I love you, too, princess. I'll see you soon, okay?" He tells me.
       "Okay." And with that, I turn to the girls and nod. "Bye, Dad"
       "Bye, Cara." As I begin to leave, a lump forms in my throat, I try to choke it out, but it only makes it worse. I get into the back of the SUV and stare out of my window, tears rolling down my cheeks as I watch my home, my father in the yard, become specks in the distance, and eventually, nothing. The girls attempt to make conversation, I don't feel like speaking to anyone right now so I put in my headphones and put the music on shuffle. All That I've Got by The Used plays in my ears, each note processing in my mind, the melody euphoric.

So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me

Off guard, red handed
Now I'm far from lonely
Asleep I still see you lying next to me
So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me I..

I need something else
Would someone please just give me
Hit me, knock me out
And let me go back to sleep
I can laugh
All I want inside I still am empty
So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me I...

I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got

I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got

I guess, I remember every glance you shot me
Un-harmed, I'm losing weight and some body heat
I squoze so hard
I stopped your heart from beating
So deep that I didn't even scream fuck me, I..

I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got

I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got

And it's all that I've got
Yeah, it's all that I've got
It's all that I've got
It's all that I've got
It's all that I've got!

So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me
So deep that I didn't even scream fuck me

I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got

I'll be just fine
Pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got

And it's all that I've got
Yeah, it's all that I've got

Hey guys, I am so terribly sorry about the wait. I've been so busy lately  with my now 10 month old baby sister that I barely have time to write chapters for my solo books. However, I am trying to get back on my writing. Thank you guys for being patient. You're the best. *hugs for everyone* YAYYY!!!
