"What the hell do you want?!"
"Look Cali.."
"Don't 'Look Cali' me. You left the boys, mom and I to fend for ourselves. You know mom isn't capable of having a stable job and you know she's an alcoholic and that she needs a sober driver and since I'm not old enough to drive and..."
"Cali, I actually came to tell your mom I'm filing for a divorce and that I've found someone else."
The room fell silent for a minute.
"Well, um... if I cared about you, which I don't, I would hope for your sake that she is sober when you break the news."
"Okay, why aren't you in school?"
"Personal day. I guess I took it off to talk to a dumb ass for like five hours..."
"Look you can't talk to your father that way young lady."
"WELL YOU'RE A FUCKIN LOUSY DAD SO DON'T EVEN CALL ME YOUR DAUGHTER DON'T EVEN THINK OF ME AS YOUR DAUGHTER JUST GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!!"
He lowered his head and left. He dropped a note on the floor, I'm guessing for me, but I didn't care. I crumpled it up and threw it on my closet floor.

Miles pulled up in my driveway in his red pickup truck at exactly 5:30. He told me to dress casually, so I wore my UCLA tee shirt, skinny jeans, brown combat boots and wore my hair in a high ponytail. He greeted me with a smile and said, "Wow, you look great!"
I looked down at my stain filled shirt and back up at him and gave him the 'are you kidding me?!' look. He shrugged and did that sexy half smirk thing that guys do. I hopped in the passengers seat and buckled my seatbelt. "Ready!" I smiled and he started the car.
"So, where are we gooing?"
"Oh... you would love to know, wouldn't you?" He smirked and I rolled my eyes. "C'mon, pleeeaase?!"
"Hm..." He tapped his finger on his chin, "no." He smiled and faced back to the road. I made a face that I am VERY glad he didn't see.
We pulled up to a BJ's. "Ooh! I love this restaurant!" I grabbed his shoulders, pulled my face close to his and gave him a very stern look, "You HAVE to buy me a pazooki." We both started cracking up laughing and then I noticed him staring into my eyes then moving his stare to my lips. He started to move in close to me and I decided to close the space between us. I was kissing Miles. It made me fall in love with him even more. Our lips slowly moved in perfect sinc. He wrapped his arms around my waist while I wrapped mine around the back of his neck. We pulled away and put our foreheads together. "Wow"
"Wow"
"Cali?"
"Yeah Miles?"
"I love you."
"I love you too Miles" He smiled and intertwined our hands. "Let's go eat."
We had a great meal, and pazooki I might add. On the way home we were basically in hysterics the whole ride. He pulled up to my porch and kissed my cheek ever so softly and whispered in my ear, his breath sending tingles down my spine "Night Cay. I love you." I smiled and whispered back "Goodnight Miles. I love you too." I practically skipped to my porch and unlocked the door to see the most horrendous sight. Ever.
My mom and Axl's dad were making out on the stairs.
Hey guys! Sorry for the short chapter! I love you all! Merry Christmas!! (I'll mention this in the next chapter, but Cay is Miles' nickname for Cali😊) Well as always...
