Daughter of Ali Krieger

Chapter 3;

Ali's POV
I put the last of our bags into the boot of the car. We're heading back to Florida today and Ash is meeting us there. I walked over to mom and hugged her.

"I love baby girl."
"I love you too mom."
"Stay in touch okay?"
"Of course."

She let go and kissed my cheek. I walked over and hugged dad.

"It was good to see you again Al. I really missed you."
"I missed you too dad."

She smiled and kissed my forehead and hugged me again. Em walked out with her arm around Kyle's waist laughing at something he said.

Emily's POV
Kyle walked over to the car with my bags and put them into the boot. I dropped my hands to my sides and breathed out as I stood in front gran and grandpa.

"I guess this is goodbye."
"It's a see you later. Now I'll have more excuses to go to Florida and for you to come here. I love you pet."
"I love you too gran."

She smiled and pulled me into a tight hug and kissed the top of my head. She whispered into my ear so no one else could here.

"You're always welcomed here. You're family now. I love you baby girl, more than you possibly know and I'm so happy you're home."

I tightened my grip around her and breathed in her scent. I eventually pulled away and she smiled. I walked over to grandpa and stood in front of him.

"I'm going to miss you, you little shit."
"I'll miss you too grandpa."
"Come here."

I walked into his open arms and hugged him. I put my head against his chest and felt my eyes get watery.

"I love you grandpa."
"I love you too. I'm always a call away if you ever need cheering up with stories or even if you want to here my voice okay?"

I nodded against him and he pulled away. He brought his hands to my cheeks and wiped my tears away with his thumbs with a sad smile. I looked over at mom and saw she was hugging gran while crying. She looked at me and gave me a sad smile.

"Ready?"
"Nope but let's go."

Gran chuckled and walked over and hugged me again. Kyle honked the car horn and we all laughed. I walked down the steps and opened the car door. Mom got in ahead of me and I turned back to gran and grandpa again. They smiled and waved. I waved back and got into the car and closed the door behind me.

We pulled into the airport loading area and got out. Kyle grabbed the suitcases and set them on the ground and closed the boot. He hugged mom and kissed her cheek and then turned to me. He walked over and bent down a bit.

"You are a strong independent woman who will take this world by a storm doing what you love. You're a Krieger and us Krieger's are invincible. I love you okay and don't be afraid to call whenever you want."
"I love you too."
"You have all your candy?"
"My backpack is full."
"Good."

He chucked and hugged me tight. He kissed my cheek and pulled away getting into the car and drove away. I picked up my bag and followed mom through the airport to security.

After twenty minutes we were sitting by our gate when mom's phone goes off.

Ali's POV
Hope's contact appeared on my screen and I frowned and answered.

Me: Hey Hope, what's up?
Hope: Al, where are you this exact moment?
Me: Waiting for our flight to Florida, why?
Hope: They know. He spoke out and now they all know about Emily. It's all over the news and twitter.
Me: Wh- what? H-how? W-why?
Hope: I don't know but Al someone is after taking your picture and they know you're coming home. We're all here in Florida waiting for you at the house. Jill is going to collect you and Em from the airport with the help of security and bring you here, okay?
Me: O-okay. Hope?
Hope: yeah?
Me: Can you come too please? Tell Ash to stay and organise the spare rooms and all that.
Hope: Sure. See you then. Stay safe Al. We love you.
Me: love you too.
