"Can I call you daddy?"

I parked the car into its usual spot, turning off the engine. My eyes drifted to Tessa, who was sleeping peacefully on the leather seat. I smiled, my fingers brushed a strand of hair that was covering her face. She smiled in her sleep, a similar reaction to the dream she had earlier. I got out of the car, walking to the other side to carry her. She placed her head against my chest, stirring in her sleep. I locked the car, carrying her sleeping body into the apartment building. My knuckle pressed the button to our floor, entering the code. I felt us ascend up the building, my eyes looking down at her. My head looked up as the elevator doors opened, my feet walking towards the stairs.

I placed her onto the bed, my eyes searching for clothes to replace her dress. She looked beautiful today. My hands found a shirt and a pair of shorts from her closer drawer, placing it next to her. I lifted up the dress, letting the material uncover her legs. My legs straddled her, lifting her body up as I stripped the dress off. Her arms lifted up for me, the dress coming off. I replaced the dress with a shirt, letting it cover her body. My hands pulled up the shorts over her bare legs, sucking in a breath as my hand brushed over her smooth legs. I placed her back down on the bed, my body lifting off of hers. My hand pulled the sheets over her, letting her go back into her dream. I watched as she turned in her sleep, her soft snores escaping her mouth. My face went closer to hers, my mouth whispering, "Goodnight, baby girl."
I backed away, moving off the bed and towards the door. My fingers flicked the light off, letting the darkness surround her. I remembered how she used to be afraid of darkness, the first night with her was the worst.

I heard screaming, my body jolting up from the chair. My hand closed the laptop, walking towards the stairs. I saw her body at the top of the stairs; one of her tiny hands clutching the bear while the other was on the railing. Her lower lip was quivering as I approached her, the tears wetting her face. I kneed down to her height, brushing strands of hair away from her face. "What's wrong, Tessa?" She gulped, pressing her face against my chest. I wrapped my arms around her, letting her wet my shirt with her tears. My hand ran through her hair, letting her embrace me.

"I had a bad dream," she cried. I stood up, holding her hand as we walked to her bedroom. She swallowed, clutching my hand tighter as we entered the room. I felt her let go as she slipped under her sheets, waiting for me to tuck her in again. My weight pressed down on the bed, pulling the sheets over her body. She put her teddy bear next to her, letting me tuck the animal in as well. She asked me, "Can I call you daddy?" I looked at her, the grey in her eyes matching mine. She looked so tiny in that huge bed.

I ran my hand through her hair, "You can call me anything you want, baby girl." She smiled, whispering a goodnight. Her grey eyes closed, her eyelashes leaving a shadow on her face. "Goodnight, Tessa," I whispered back even though she wouldn't hear me. I lifted myself off of the bed, plugging in the nightlight for her. She turned in her sleep, her back turning away from me. I walked back to the door, glancing at her sleeping body one last time before I closed the door behind me.

I walked out of the room, my eyes darting to the other door in the hallway. No, Jamie, don't go in there. The urge of unlocking that door was killing me, even the scent of the leather whip would make me go crazy. I walked passed it, looking back as I began to walk down the stairs. My feet padded against the marble tile, walking towards my room. I began taking off my suit jacket, hanging it on the chair in the corner of my room. My hand unbuttoned my shirt, letting it fall on the ground. I imagined her body on the bed, her naked body waiting for me. My fingers unbuckled my belt, pulling my trousers down. I slipped underneath the sheets, the thought of her overwhelming me. My eyes closed, letting myself drift off.

I woke up, my eyes looking around the room that I was in. How was I back in my room? My hand supported me as I sat up, revealing that the dress that I previously wore was replaced with my usual sleeping clothes. I searched for Daddy, knowing that he was the one who dressed me. My feet touched the carpet, putting all my weight on that body part. I instinctively checked my phone, knowing that Becca could've contacted me within the hours. My eyebrow raised when an unknown number texted me, my thumb unlocking my phone to see who it was.

Hey, it's Trevor. I just wanted you to know that I can't tutor you today because my parents want to stay at the cabin that we owned. It's something we do every winter. I might be able to make it tomorrow. Good luck on your test today.

I finished reading the text, realizing that I had school today. My hand set the phone on my nightstand, walking towards the door. I reached for the toothbrush as I closed the bathroom door behind me. Good thing I didn't sleep that long, I thought as I brushed my teeth. My mind thought about the dream I had, parts of my fantasy erasing as I tried to grasp it. I washed my mouth, getting rid of the toothpaste. My hand contacted with the soft towel, wiping my mouth with it. I walked back into my room, searching through the closet for another set of clothes.

My hand pulled the shirt over me, letting the material cover my bare body. I straightened the bottom of my skinny jeans, fixing it so the denim hugged my legs. My hand connected with maroon jacket that was on my bed, walking to the closet to get my boots. My eyes glanced out my window, seeing the snow that covered the ground. I hooked my fingers on the crook of the boots, my hand swinging the backpack onto me. My hand clutched the device, slipping it into my back pocket. I walked towards the door, leaving my bedroom. My eyes glanced into Daddy's bedroom as I walked down the stairs, finding that he wasn't awake yet. I placed my stuff by the bar stool, walking to the counter to make tea.

My hand set the cup of tea next to my notebook, going to search the fridge for something to eat. I grabbed the ingredients to cook breakfast for the both of us, placing the pan onto the heat. My thoughts were drowned out as I began to cook for him. I cracked three eggs; one for me and two for him. My hand put two pieces of toast into the toaster, going down to the cabinet to get two plates for us. I knew he wasn't going to be awake when I left, it was too early for him. My hand placed the two plates of food on the counter, setting the silverware next to it.

Once I finished my plate, I cleaned the kitchen. My hand tied the laces to my boots, getting ready to leave for school. I covered his plate of food, letting his hot coffee get cold before he woke up. It was something that I couldn't help. He always woke up to cold coffee, something that he'll reheat with his plate of food. He was too busy to even have breakfast, his work day starting when he woke up to when his head hits the pillow. I covered my arms with the jacket, moving my hair over the coat. When my eyes caught the paper and pen, I decided to write him a little letter. My pen guided across the paper that I tore out of my notebook, writing out a special message that he'll see when he gets ready for the day.

To my Jamie Dornan,

I've never written messages to you, not like this. Good morning, Daddy. I hoped you had a good sleep, I could tell by you oversleeping a bit. It's really nice to wake up early in the morning and make breakfast for you. Since my first night with you, all I ever thought about was you. I dreamed about your grey eyes, how mysterious they make you. It's the only thing I think about, how grey they are. I hope you have a good morning, Daddy.

From your Tessa Grey
