Life Changing in London

Chapter 6

Carlees POV:;

After mine and Harrys long movie day, Harry decided to drive me home. We pulled up to my apartment building and Harry turned the car off.

"Let me walk you in" he said

"Oh no, Harry I'm fine. You don't have to."

"No, I insist..."

We got out of the car and walked to my apartment. I unlocked the door and I heard Mongoose running towards us. As soon as he saw Harry he charged at him jumping and barking being super protective. Harry jumped back in fear  and grabbed Mongoose by the collar. I started petting him to comfort the dog.

"I'm sorry, he's doesn't like strangers." I said as Harry stuck his hand out carefully, letting Mongoose sniff him.

"Oh its fine, what's his name?" he asked now petting the dog on the head.

"Mongoose."

"Umm...Why is he named after another animal?"

"Don't judge my dogs name." I said jokingly "My cousin is always naming animals after other animals and when I got my dog, my cousin BEGGED me to name him Mongoose" I answered and harry nodded. I let Mongoose go and he was fine.

"Do you want something to drink?" I asked as I walked into the kitchen setting my stuff down.

"No I'm fine" he replied as he walked around my living room. I walked and saw Harry looking at my pictures on one of my shelves.

"Is this your family back in America?" He asked. I walked over and looked at the picture. It was an old family picture from when I was little girl.

"Yea, that's me.." I pointed to the little girl with the long blond straight hair with a colorful tank top on with pink shorts.

"...Those are my sisters, Gracie and Laynie...." I pointed to two younger girls, one was a toddler and the other a baby.

".... And those are my parents, Cristina and Shawn." I said and pointed to my mom and dad.

"Awww!! Wittle Carlee was so cute !! And she still is !!" he winked at me and made me smile and blush like crazy.

Harry looked back at the picture. "You guys look so happy.

"Well we really were for a while, then everything went downhill." I replied

"Why what happened?"

I looked up at Harry. I usually don't like talking about my family problems, but I felt like I could trust him. "Sit down its a long story."  I walked over to the couch and Harry sat next to me.    

" Well shortly after my parents had my youngest sister, Laynie, they got a divorce. It made me so upset because I was a daddy's girl. So I left my mom and sisters and lived with my dad. My dad always told me that I was the closest thing to mom and for me never to leave him. He barely wanted me leaving him for the weekend to go visit my mom and my sisters.  I would take all my anger out on my sisters, we fought 24/7 and they absolutely hated me. Me and my mom wee still pretty close thought, she's the one who then started me in dancing. So once I became a senior I started getting really good at dance, and at my last competition, I got a full scholarship to WDA. My mom was so proud of me, she offered to pay any other expenses to move to London. But my dad wasn't so happy, he didn't want me to take this amazing opportunity. Then day before I was supposed to leave Laynie was diagnosed with Lung cancer. I was going to stay home to help with my sister but my mom insisted that I still go. So then the day I was moving, I was waiting for my mother to picked me up and take me to the airport, and me and my dad got in this HUGE fight. I never saw him so mad since the divorce. He told me before I left that if I walked out the door that I was never coming back and he would disown me..... I turned around and walked out the door and wet with my mom. I was heartbroken. And I haven't talked to my father since."
