"Daddy, are you and Daisy still friends?" I asked innocently.

"No, not anymore. She tried to make a move on me even though she knew I was married. I rejected her but we stayed good friends afterwards. But it was different now. And everyday I feelt like she became more bitter and bitter. She still tried making moves in me, so I had to end our relationship to save the one I already had." He said with sadness in his eyes. "Why are you asking me this? Has she tried to hurt you?"

"Yea, I think she might be the one that kidnapped Gabe and mom." I said thinking out loud.

"She did what?!" My dad yelled.

I quickly filled him in on everything that's been going on in my life. Starting from when my mom claimed that I had a mental disorder to leaving my apartment to meet him here.

"So my invention worked? Wow! And I'm glad it did because you might not have been sitting here in front of me! Damn your life has been exciting and horrifying at the same time!" He said tapping his fingers against the table. "I need to meet this Andrea and what was his name, chandelier?" He asked.

"Chandler, dad."I said shaking my head. He was always protective over me, just like Gabe. Like father like son.

"Whatever, anyways I'll meet them sometime but right now let's focus on our family."

"Right. Well you can't come with me tomorrow night dad because that'll put mom and Gabe at risk. We need a plan." I said pondering on how this will work out.

"Okay, here's what we're gonna do."

"You were gone for a long time. Everything okay?" Chandler asked me while yawning.

"It's only 11:30. It's not that late." I said plopping on the couch next to him. He was stretched out and had his head on my lap. I ran my fingers through his hair.

"That's late Jade. What took you so long." He asked me worried.

"Uh I was meeting with someone that I haven't seen in 10 years." I said sighing.

"That's a long time." He said mindlessly. He was beginning to doze off.

"Yea, we caught up on a lot, that's why it took so long." I said yawning.

"Hmm."

"Hey maybe you should go home, you seem pretty tired."

"I don't know what your talking about I'm completely awake." He said. I heard soft snores about 2 seconds afterwards.

I laughed softly, careful not to wake him up. I got up laying his head on the couch. I went to the bathroom and took a quick shower and changed into sleeping ware. I checked Dree's room and found her sprawled out on her bed asleep.

I went back to the man sleeping on my couch. I shook him awake.

"Wha-wha I'm awake." He said rubbing his eyes.

"I know your tired just sleep in my bed for now." I said.

"What about you?"

"I'll sleep on the couch." I said trying to convince him.

He got up and picked me up throwing me over his shoulder. He walked to my room and shut the door behind him. He threw me on the bed, then laid down next to me. "Don't be stubborn just sleep with me." He said with his arm around my waist.

"Um, okay but don't try anything." I nervously said.

"I would be offended if you thought I would." He said immediately.
