Lexi Or Isabella?

Jazz : Chapter 10

Lexi's POV

I woke up happy today. Getting up, I didn't hear Frank or anything. Maybe he left! Running down the stairs, he wasn't gone...

"Alexis!" Frank said as he got up from the couch.

"Yes?" I ask confused.

"I got you a puppy!" Frank said as he pointed to a box on the couch.

Running to the box, I opened it up.

"Awwww..." I coo at the black and white puppy.

"I knew you would like her." He said.

"Thank you." I say as I pull her into my hands.

"Also, one more thing." Frank said.

"What?" I ask bracing myself.

"I changed your name." He said.

"That's great!" I say excited.

"Yeah, but it isn't Alexis." He said.

"W-what is it?" I ask nervously.

"Lexi." He said.

"Oh, okay." I say okay with it.

"So, is that okay?" He asked nervously.

"Yeah, it's my nickname..." I said smiling at the puppy.

"Okay, good." He said.

I smiled at him and looked back at the puppy... what should I name her? Isabella? Oh gosh no!

"What are you going to name her?" Frank asks.

"Jazz." I say smiling at Jazz.

"That's beautiful." Frank said smiling.

With Jazz in my hands, I went over and wrapped one of my arms around Frank with Jazz in the other. I felt Frank hug me back and I felt complete... happy. Wait, this is my father... I can't be so suprised.

"Did you want some breakfast?" He asked me.

"Yes!" I said excited as I set Jazz down.

He went to the kitchen and I followed him. Looking back, I saw Jazz following me. Cute.

"What do you want for breakfast?" Frank asked.

"Biscuits and gravy!" I say excited.

"Okay." He says as he gets ingredients out.

And if you're thinking... who has biscuits and gravy on hand? Any person in the south and if you love them... like ME!

"Here you are." Frank said as he put a plate with the biscuits and gravy on it.

"Thanks." I say before I started to pig out.

I saw Frank shaking his head and smiling at me.

"Frank?" I asked.

"Um... yeah?" He asked.

"Can I call you dad?" I ask nervously.

"Of course." He says which makes me smile.

After finishing my food, I pick Jazz up and kiss her cute little face.

"So, when are we going to go out?" I asked.

"Um, I don't know. Do you wanna go today?" My dad asked.

"Okay, where?" I asked him.

"How about a dog park for Jazz?" He asked looking at Jazz in my arms.

"Okay." I say smiling.

My dad leaves and comes back with a leash. Grabbing the leash, I put it on Jazz.

"You going to change?" My dad asked smiling.

"Oh, yeah." I say as I hand the leash over to him and run up the stairs.

Running into my room, I throw on some cute jeans and a T-shirt. I went back downstairs and grabbed Jazz.

"Ready!" I say as he goes to unlock the door.

After he unlocks it, I step out and feel the warm breeze hit my skin. I missed the outdoors.

"Nice, huh?" He said as we walked to his car.

"Yes." I say.

We get into his car and he pulls out of the driveway.

"I'm glad you finally have warmed up to me." Frank said smiling as he drove down the road.

"Me too, I'm glad I have a relationship with my father." I said.

"Yeah, I've never felt more fixed. If that makes any sense." He said.

"I get what you mean." I said smiling at him.

"Can we leave the past in the past?" He asked nervously.

I thought about how our past was that he KIDNAPPED me then BEAT me. Wow, um why do I like him again?

"Um, yeah. Sure." I say remembering the horrific memories.

"Okay, good." He says.

I look down at Jazz and see her curled up on my lap. Petting her head, she licked my hand.

"So, where are we going?" I asked him.

"We're going to the dog park, in Fresno." He replied.

"Is it a public park?" I ask him.

"Um, yes." He said suspiously.

"Okay, I have been missing seeing people." I said.

"You can't talk to them!" Frank says sternly.

"Why?" I ask confused.

"They could recognize you." He said.

"I don't know anyone from California." I say dumbly.

"Yes, but the news knows who you are." Frank said.

"Oh." Was all I said.

When he yelled at me it broke my heart a little. Finally we arrived. I decided I HAVE to talk to someone, anyone.

"Okay, I'm going to walk with Jazz over here." I said.

"I'll come with you." He said as he followed me.

"Okay." I said already thinking of another plan.

While walking, I decided on leaving.

"Um, I'm going to go to the bathroom." I said as I picked Jazz up.

"I can keep her here when you are gone." He said.

"No, I'm going to go with her. I really love her." I said.

"Okay, then I'll go with you." He said.

Knowing I couldn't do this, I saw people walking by. Then, some man walked by and he was very strong. Smiling to myself, I knew what to do.

"HELP! KIDNAP! HELP!" I screamed.

Frank grabbed me by my hair and closed my mouth.

"Shut up!" He whispered to me as he ran to the car with me in his arms.

"HELP!" I yell.

I see the large man run after me and Jazz is following after me.

"Let her go!" The large man yells still running with his dog.

The dog is large like his owner. Looking back, I saw the man unhook the chain and the dog comes running toward us.

"Help me!" I yell getting the dogs attention more.

The dog was sprinting towards us and I wasn't scared of it. I was scared of my father.
