As I laid there still wrapped within his arms I watched turned sun rise. It was beautiful and just bright enough to make him groan.

"Good morning beautiful " he mumbled as he turned on his side and gave me a kiss on my cheek. I couldn't help but blush at the gesture.

"Morning love." I trailed off and sat up from my spot holding the blanket close to cover the front half of my body.

"Did you sleep good? " I keep my voice just above a whisper and got up from the bed.

"I did. This bed is really comfortable, why'd y'all throw it out?" He asked as he watched me slip into my clothes. I gave him a shoulder shrug and sat on the bed next to him.

"How'd you sleep? "He asked as he watched me play with the blanket.

"I didn't... "Not  wanting him to see that something was wrong I gave him a small smile.

"What's wrong " he pulled me closer to him and wrapped his arm around me.

"Just feel weird. Like something's gonna happen." I played with his hand as the room went quiet.

"Can I stay at your place?"I asked remembering what happened the last time I felt this way. His embrace grew tighter as he took a breath before speaking.

"Of course you can." I heard the smile grow on his face as the words slipped through his lips.

"We can have a movie night " the tiredness from his voice slipping away.

"You read my mind. Now get dressed so I can get clothes." I nudged him closer to the clothes on the floor. He did as I asked as I cleaned the small mess we had made on the bed the night before. I fixed the pillows as he wrapped his arms around my waste.

"Are you ready?" He softly whispered in my ear. I got chills as memories from last night crossed my mind.

"Yeah " I turned to face him and gave him a small kiss on the lips. He pulled away and lead me to the car.

"Are you hungry? " he nodded his head towards a McDonald's.

"I'm not that hungry. Besides I can make you something at home." I gave him a smile and turned up the music. I sang along in a funny manor to get him to laugh. As we opened the doors the music stopped. I unlocked my front door I felt myself get light headed. I shrugged it off went upstairs.

"Let me shower and than I'll make you something ok love? " I yelled as I started my water and waited for it to get warm. I couldn't help but think about the night before. The thoughts put my mind in a comfortable state. I let all the worries I had from this morning wash away.

"What do you want to eat?" I said with a smile as I walked downstairs and saw him on the couch.

"Anything " he answered not taking his attention of the tv screen. I walked into the kitchen taking out four eggs, some sausage and cheese. I made the meal in silence and heard him chuckle here and there.

"Come eat love." I yelled just enough for him to hear as I sat our plates on the table.

"Thank you looks good " he gave me an assuring smile and began to eat. I poured him orange juice and coffee for myself.

"How can you drink that?" His face filled with disgust.

"How can you not?" I laughed as I took a sip.

"Because it's nasty! " he answered my question and watched as I put my glass down. 

"To you it is, but it relaxes me " I smiled . We ate our food in silence and began to clean up.

"I'll go here my stuff so we can go" I smiled and ran upstairs to get my bag. I looked around my room to make sure I hadn't forgot anything. I grabbed my phone and slid it in my back pocket and ran downstairs. I wrote a note to my mom telling her where I would be even though I knew she really didn't care.

"I'll be outside waiting " I yelled to see Austin taking his time getting up from the couch. I opened my front door to see an older man standing there.

"Spencer Rae?" The man asked as he looked down on me.

"who's asking?." The man didn't look familiar so how he knew my name made me curious.

"Your dad." As the man said as I felt Austin pull me close type him indicating he heard everything.

"What are you doing here?" I looked up to him as my blood started to boil.

"I wanted to see how my little girl was doing. " he said in an almost sarcastic manor. He looked behind me seeing Austin put him in shock.

"Who's this Spen? " he looked back down at me.

"You have no right to call me that. You've been gone for eight years and now you decide to come see 'your little girl' ?" I spat at him not giving him time to answer I continued.

"You can't just walk in and out of someone's life when you please. You can't just come back and expect me to call you dad. In fact you're not my dad; your a coward. Dad's don't leave their children and the ones that do don't deserve to be called dad. So if you're looking for my mom you can come back at six if not you can leave." I felt my anger go down as the the man looked me.

"Just give me a chance to make up for it." The man pleaded.

"You lost your chance eight years ago. Goodbye. " I grabbed Austin hand brought him outside and locked the door.

"If you're not gonna leave I well. Have a good life. " I walked passed him and got in the car. Tears fell from anger. I knew what I did was wrong but with what he did he deserved it.
