NICOLE's POV
I sweat a lot in my sleep, I took another shower and got out, i washed my face and brushed my teeth, I put on ripped light snug jeans, I put on a tee shirt which made a black and white splatter painted print sign of weed. My favorite shirt personally. I put on a smokey eye with winged eyeliner and mascara, I put on my favorite Chapstick and slipped on my white Jordan's.

I grabbed my FXR jacket and purse and met mom down stairs. "Your up early" mom said, she was in her rob with curlers in her hair while dunking coffee as she turned on the TV.

"Soldiers come home today" mom squealed and turned to me "happy birthday baby!" She squealed. I giggled and smiled "thanks mommy" I'm 15 now, holy crap.

Mom turned on the tv and said "so after school I have a DVD I want you to play in front of everyone, it found some old videos and I put a bunch together and stuff so" she said smiling. I watched the news with mom and 7:45 rolled around my sisters came down stairs and mom grabbed her keys we got into the SUV and drove to school.

"Bye momma love you" I smiled and ran into the school, we had an assembly this morning, mostly everyone was wearing pink or red and I was wearing weed lol. "Happy birthday smart mouth" tony said "thanks cluster cock"

"Here for you, a present, from me" he said handing me a box of chocolate "omg, just what I wanted!" I squealed and opened the box, I slowly closed it but quickly and hid it in my bad. "Omg I love you so much just what I needed" we laughed, wasn't a box of chocolate "your welcome, nice tee shirt" he winked

We entered the gym and then Sara our principal spoke "I'd like Nicole to come down" everyone kind of oooo'd as most whispered. I made my way down as she sat me in a chair.

"So Nicole, it's your birthday today and we all have a big present for you" she spoke smiling "but first we must speak, Nicole here is a trouble maker, she can fight yes we all know that and we all know now that she and her friend are also the one setting the pranks on our school board. Yes Antonio and Nicole you have been exposed. She's a very good student. I can tell she's very different from a lot of us. She's a trouble maker but also a straight A student" she smiled and continued "Nicole, when you first came here your mom said you haven't seen your dad since you were 7 is that true?" I nodded "yes"

"And why's that?" She asked "well that's a personal answer but my mom sent me off to Brazil until I was 18 but I got kicked out so here I am" I laughed

"Well Nicole listen up your older siblings all of your sisters are standing on the other side of the room behind you, but they have no idea what's going on either but their blind folded, and when you call out what you say they take off their blindfolds. now in this spinny chair we are going to spin Nicole around and sing happy birthday. And when you stop you are going to walk forward and when you can see straight tell us what you can see" she said

They sat me down and spun me around which seemed forever. But it finally stopped I gained my vision back and I seen a green and white uniform on the other side.

I noticed who it was....my vision blurred with tears as I screamed in excitement

"daddy!" I sprinted towards him and jumped in his arms, I sobbed in arms as I heard screams and felt a bunch of arms wrap around me. My brothers and father were home but I held onto dad, I held on tight as if it were my last day to see him ever again. "Oh daddy I missed you" I said crying I looked at him and seen him crying "oh my gosh" I said as everyone cheered and we left the gym. We were in an empty classroom as I never let go. "Can you let go?" He laughed as I shook my head "nuh uh" I said my siblings laughed I noticed they were crying. "She's still crying" Taya said

"I'm so sorry baby girl, I wish I could've stop her I'm so sorry" I shook my head "trust me daddy you've found someone better" he laughed and kissed mom "did I" he said as I nodded "yes" I laughed

"Well let's get home so we can take family pictures" I never let go until we got into the car where I held his hand from the back seat.

I've missed him so much.

We got home and he carried me once again, we were taking family pictures. We all were wearing navy green. I was wearing a navy green dress, it was a halter top but in the middle it went poofy. My sisters were wearing dresses also some long some short. My brothers were wearing their uniform as and so was my dad. I hugged my brothers who hugged me.

We all got close, I hugged dad, angel hugged Taya, Christopher hugged Aiyana, jolon hugged aiyita, chayton hugged aleshanee, and diami and diani hugged each other as mom got on dad's other side and hugged him from behind. Everyone was looking at that camera but I was looking at dad.

Your my hero daddy

We all were headed to the mall to I shopping as a family day. When mom parked I froze and noticed a group outside. It was a group of boys. The same group of boys as before when I moved here. I noticed Ryan in the group. He looked this way and smiled then slowly disappeared, my heart hurt really bad as if I were heart broken

"I miss you Ryan" I whispered and entered the mall with the family
