You Don't Know Me But...

Chapter 6

My eyes slowly open reveling a figure sitting at a desk. When my vision is clear I can see it is Kelly.
"morning kiddo."
"how long was I asleep?"
"since you came up here. I came up about 5 minutes after you and you were out cold."
I sat up in the bed stretching out. I got and Kelly's phone rang. I left the room giving him some privacy. As I was walking I saw Gabby talking to someone i recognized.
"officer dawson?"
"Its detective." slowly he turned around locking eyes with me. "Hey kids I haven't seen you in forever how are you?"
We continued small talk until we were interrupted by Gabby with Kelly next to her.
"how do you two know each other?" Gabby questioned.
"well three years ago I was in a car accident with my brother and dad. my dad died and I was really hurt. detective dawson was there first." I looked at kelly. He was so sad when I said dad. "I'm sorry. he was our step-dad but was there forever I don't want to hurt your feelings, I won't talk about him anymore."
Kelly walked over to me and put his hands on my shoulder. he explained that he understood he just wished he was the one there my whole life.
