You & I

Chapter 12

I didn't move.
It wasn't because i didn't want to it's because i couldn't.
As soon as my dad spoke, my body froze.

He slowly stood up from his previous seat on the couch and made his way to stand in front of me.

I gulped as soon as he stood in his tracks frowning at me, his hands behind his back.

I may have just fucked up.

"Do you know how scared I was Chelsea?! Do you think it's all some sort of game to you? That you can go out wherever and whenever you want and stay out all night without even telling me?" He was getting angrier by the minute.

I decided not to open my mouth.

"ANSWER ME" he shouted.

I was taken aback by his loud voice. I've never seen dad so angry...he's usually so calm..

"I..- I.." I couldn't get any word out of my mouth.
Which made my father oh so angry.

Silence took over.

"No no honey please don't cry" my dad said pleading me.
I haven't noticed that i was tearing up also that by now, tears were rolling down my cheeks.

Dad held my face and wipped away my tears.
"I didn't mean to make you cry honey, i just... I was really scared you weren't answering your phone and I didn't know where you were" he said calmly.

I just nodded, but managed to get a decent sentence out of my mouth.
"I'm s-sorry dad, it won't happen again"

He smiled and hugged me.
