"Who are you texting?" Niall asked. He was becoming more and more like a dad every day. "Willow," I told him, "We just finished. I amire the fact that you are becoming more and more like a dad everyday." "Thank you," he said, "You are becoming smarter and prettier of a girl everyd day, I'm going to have to start monitering you." I smiled.

"Hey dad, when am I going to start going to school?" I asked. He looked at me like I was growing another head. "Why do you need to go to school?" he asked. "Umm..to learn," I said. "You are already are smart enough," he said. "No, I'm not," I replied, being honest.

"Harry didn't finish school," he said. "Yes, well Harry has a good voice and got famous, and besides, he isn't all that smart," I replied. "Ellie, I really just don't want you to go to school," he said. I came to a realization just then.

"So, you don't trust me?" I asked. He tilted his head slightly. "I never said that," he replied. "It was implied," I said, "Dad, I took care of myself almost all my life, but you can't trust me?" He shook his head. "That isn't true," he said.

"Then why don't you want me to go to school?" I asked. I was angry with him and I was growing more and more impatient by the second. He didn't reply. "So you don't trust me," I said.

He sighed. "Ellie," he said, "You know just as well as I do that there are some horrible people out there. I got picked on before in high school, and it was horrible. I don't want you going because your father is famous, so you will stick out like a sore thumb. You will be picked on. I really don't want that happening to you because some people kill themselves over it! I don't want you killing yourself, Ellie! I would kill myself! I just love you way too much."

Oh my god. So the reason he was isolating me was to keep me safe this whole time. I saw him start crying in the corner of my eye. I felt bad then about yelling at him. He just wanted to keep me safe.

"I-I'm sorry," I said. I hugged him and stroked his hair. "I know that you didn't mean it, but the thought of you getting hurt kills me," he replied. "I really shouldn't have brought it up," I whispered. But at the same time, I was happy I did. I was concerned about my future.

However, I was sure that I wasn't going to school any time soon.

"So, what do you plan on doing with your life?" he asked as I pulled out a guitar. I shrugged. "I figured that I would go to school to be a makeup artist or something like that," I replied. He nodded. "Cool," he said.

"By the way, the Brits are in three weeks," he said. "Really?" I asked. Oh my gosh. I couldn't wait to go to the Brits! I was pumped! "You don't have to try to contain your excitement," he said. I screamed. "I can't believe that I will actually be going to the Brits!" I always watched them at home. Always.

"Good, because I thought we were going to end this five hour conversation on a bad note," he said. "Nando's it is," I said. "You read my mind," he said.

We got our Peri Peri chicken in takeouts and ate them at home.
