This has nothing to do with anything but I love this dance so... yeah.

Brooklyn POV

The fact that I was unconscious for god knows how long and I woke up in Mr. Adams' room honestly scared the shit out of me.

I was walking to my locker so I could put my books away and grab my backpack. I've only been here half the day and I figured if this really was my dad he'd probably take me out of school tomorrow but just incase I grabbed my stuff.

I made my down the hall and went to the front lobby to see 'my dad'. I got to the lobby and the man there appeared to be my dad. I shrugged and walked over to him.

"Hi Daddy." I said wrapping my arm around his waist.

"Hey Peanut. How was your day?" He asked squeezing me.

"Good."

He waved goodbye to the lady in the office and we walked out of the school.

"Why are you home early? I thought you were staying in DC for another two weeks."

He shrugged. "I finished early." He said as we got to the parking lot.

"New car?" I asked.

He shrugged and opened the passenger door to a white BMW and I got in. He closed it and walked around to the other side.

"Alright Brooklyn I have to tell you something..."

"Okay. Shoot."

"You promise you won't get mad?"

"Cross my heart."

He looked away from me and started the car.

"I'm not your father."

I scoffed. "What? So you're saying I'm adopted?" I asked.

"No you're not adopted."

"Then how are you not my dad?"

He didn't say anything until we got home.

"I'm not your dad." He said before his face morphed into Val's.

"What the-" I stopped myself. If he was Val I could let this slip but if he was my dad I wouldn't be able to..

"Don't freak out." He said calmly.

"HOW THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT?"

"Are you freaking out?" Val- my dad- whoever this was asked.

"YES! I AM! YOU WERE MY DAD A MINUTE AGO! NOW YOUR MY BEST FRIEND! WHO ARE YOU GOING TO CHANGE INTO NEXT? OBAMA?"

"So we're still friends?"

I rolled my eyes. "Yes you dork."

"Good."

I opened the door and got out of the car.

"Wait Brooklyn." Val said.

"What?"

"Do you want me to come inside with you... You know in case you get scared?"

"No.. I'm a big girl I can protect myself. But if I get scared I'll call."

"Alright. see you later."

"Bye Val."

He waved and drove off.

I pulled my key out of my backpack. This weekend has been crazy and I just want to go inside and freak out. I opened the front door and was greeted by the smell of food.

"Hello?"
