I grudgingly slumped onto the sofa with my bags in my hands, I decided I was gonna do all my homework tomorrow since I had none due in til Thursday so I might as well have a free night. I excitedly turned on the TV and put on Netflix to rewatch Once Upon A Time, I have watched it about 7 times right up to the mid-season finale in season 6. I hate when they do those because not only is it annoying to the fans who want to watch their show without having to wait 2 months to finish a season but also because it causes so much hate towards shows that do them.
After about an hour and a half my dad finally came home, "Hey pumpkin good day at school?"
Ever since I was little my dad has called me pumpkin, on Halloween when I was 3 he stuffed me into a pumpkin costume which made me look like a squished carrot, I'm just afraid that if I ever get married he might show everyone the dreadful pictures that were taken that night.
"Hey dad, yeah school was ok, did you know about the new people next door" he looked confused at first but then realised what I was talking about
"Ah yes I meant to tell you this morning but you left before I got the chance, how did you find out?" He asked with a look of curiosity spread across his face
"The new boy in my English lives there and we walked home together"
a smirk crawled up the side of his face "oh so you're walking with boys now, I'll just get the preparations ready for the babies room"
"shut up" God he can be so annoying sometimes but I still love him
"What are we wanting for dinner tonight then?"
Without thinking I blurted out "Food"
a sarcastic vibe came out his mouth "Well I'd sure hope so"
I could hear him rummaging around in the fridge and then the cupboards "We can have pasta, fish, or takeout"
Any other kid would have instantly said takeout, but I felt like mixing it up a bit "Pasta please"
"Damn you make me do work"
'whoops I kind of feel bad now'
"That's fine dad I can do it"
He started laughing quietly under his breath "I'm joking pumpkin go do something fun"
'phew now I don't feel bad'
"Thanks dad" I gave him a quick hug before proceeding up to my room.
My room was pretty bland, I thought about changing it up a bit by putting some posters or something up, but I decided to just keep it how it is. In my room there is a small Sony TV placed on the wall, underneath was my dresser with makeup and hair bands on, I didn't wear a lot of makeup, just a little lipgloss and mascara. I got a bunch of makeup for Christmas so I just placed it there and haven't touched it since.
I looked over at my window and saw something mesmerising, it was a topless Dean 'Gaaaaaaahhhhhhh' Wow he looks amazing, that is like an 8 pack, what I would give to run my hands over his toned abs......
'WHAT AM I DOING' what I didn't realise was that I was slowly rubbing my fingers along my desk and I think he noticed me. He kind of had an awkward grin on his face and seemed so innocent when he told me to open my window, so I did
"May I ask why you were looking through my window?"
"Y-you see I was drawing my curtains open and then I saw you standing there and I was just about to shut them when you saw me"
'well done Katy, good lie.'
"Oh ok, erm I'm just going to go now"
"Ok see you later" at this he closed his curtains.
After a little light reading I decided to have a fashion show, I had these probably everytime I bought new clothes and it just so happened that yesterday I bought some nice blue jeggings. As I slipped into them along with my loose lilac top, I turned on my fashion show playlist. And yes, I was sad enough to create a playlist specifically for my fashion shows. Don't judge me.
I was happily enjoying my fashion show when I realised that my window was open, therefore my very loud playlist of girl power songs was blaring out into the world at This current point in time. I clumsily dived for my speaker when my dad opened the door ... right ... on .... my ... Face!
"Uuuggghhh... I think I have a concussion," I said grudgingly
"man up, we're going out, so wear something decent"
'what it is 8'o'clock, where could we be going this late on a school night???'
"Hey dad.. where are we going?"
"Well pumpkin I'm glad you asked, we're going over to the morris'to give them a proper welcome to the neighbourhood "
'ugh I do NOT want to go over to dean's house'
"but dad what about the pasta??" I said whining, hoping he would catch on that I didn't want to go, but I guess he didn't get the gist
"Don't worry we are taking it with us"
'damn it why did he have to be so naive'
"okay".
I rushed upstairs to my room to make myself look presentable, I decided to wear a light pink blouse with a mint mini skirt. I put on a little mascara and lip gloss, I didn't feel like caking my face just for Dean.
"You almost ready pumpkin??" My dad called from the bottom of the stairs.
I looked in my mirror and sighed "this is as good as it's gonna get Katy"
"Yeah coming dad" so i pranced like a stag down the stairs right up to my dad who was waiting by the door
"god you weirdo" I sighed on the inside, why does he have to abuse me
"it's hereditary from your side" I said as I poked my tongue out at him childishly.
As we stepped out into the cold night I prayed to not embarrass myself too much.
