YOU DIDN'T BELIEVE IT FOR A minute. not even a second. i mean, you never thought this day would come; the day your dad was asking to see matt and get to know him. you stared at the text blankly. no matter how many times you reread the next it still wasn't clear to you. you didn't believe it. your dad who has never liked matt and actually, hated him is now sending you texts asking to get together and get to know him.

but now that you're thinking about it, it wasn't that easy. it has taken over a month of convincing from your dad to get him to reach out about you moving back in. you told him the only way you were willing to move back in was if matt was allowed whenever he wanted and there weren't any rules. that means you are allowed to live, and be with the guy of your dreams without being insulted and told what's good for you and what isn't. that was a big step for your dad, so it took a lot of convincing from both you and your mom.

at your graduation ceremony a few days ago with matt you didn't expect to see your dad or even your mom at your ceremony. you were surprised to see them in the crowd. and when your parents went to congratulate you after you saw the pain in your dads eyes. you could tell he missed you and it was the same from your mom. you were shocked when your dad said congratulations to matt. it was the first kind thing you had heard your dad ever say to your boyfriend. you watched matt's face light up and when he smiled at you after, you could tell he was making progress for your dad's acceptance of him being your boyfriend.

you continued to stare at the text that read: y/n, i'd love to go out and get dinner with you and matt sometime soon. i miss you, sweetheart and i'd like to get to know matt for your sake and make sure he's the one you want. i know you love him and i just want to try and understand and be the dad you want me to be. please let me know and let matt know for me. i love you.

you sighed and set your phone down next to you on matt's bed. you stared at the ceiling, a million thoughts running through your mind. your head turned on the pillow to look at the closed door in matt's room to the hallway as you listened to the shower water run. matt had left a few minutes ago to take a shower, leaving you alone in his room. you had only woken up about fifteen minutes ago and you were already stressing from that text from your dad.

you sat up, lifting the covers off of your body then sliding out of matt's bed. your bare feet padded across the wood floor as you made your way out of your boyfriends bedroom and to his bathroom next door. you slowly opened the door and slid into the bathroom, closing the door behind you. the smell of matt's shampoo filled your nose as you stepped towards the shower.

"matt?" you called, opening the shower curtain.

matt's back was facing you, then he quickly turned around. "jesus christ, baby!" matt shouted as his chest heaved. "you scared the shit out of me! when did you get in here?" matt exhaled, rinsing out his hair that was lathered in shampoo.

"sorry! i should've knocked." you sighed. "i just got in here." you answered, turning to the side and closing the toilet lid then sitting down on the toilet.

"it's alright. what do you need, love?" matt asked, watching you.

"well..." you paused. "my dad reached out." your eyes flicked up to matt as you peered up at him through your lashes.

matt's eyes widened, "shit, really?" he asked.

"yeah." you smiled.
