the heroic princess

surprise

  My father and my brother came in along with Elijah's family. My mom and other brother were on their way from Florida. My father gave me something soft and fluffy, it didn't take long before I realized that it was my favorite stuffed animal. I love stuffed animals no matter what kind and I am pretty sure that every one knows.
    In about half an hour everyone left the room because they said that they needed to "talk". Elijah came back in ten minutes later. I asked him were our families went he said that his parents and my father had to work. Of course my father chose work again instead of staying with his daughter.
    "Don't worry, I'm staying," Elijah said reassuringly "your father asked me to. When we were talking he said that he wanted me to take care of you."
    "He did?" I was surprised my father doesn't let any boys even near me now he's asking my crush from fourth grade to take care of me?! What the hell dad!!
