As long as you love me

Chapter 6

"Mom?"

Holy crap.

I didn't say anything or do anything. I might of stopped breathing. I was in shock.

"Hi, Emily." she smiled and cocked her head. I could see my mother's eyes start to fill up with water.

I felt so many emotions traveling throughout my whole body. This is the first time I've felt so many things at once. I tried to say something but I hesitated, instead I stood there like how I always stand when I don't know what to do.... like an idiot.

"Emily who is at the door?" I heard my dad yelling from up the stairs. I opened the door wider and moved out of the way so he could see.

To be honest we were both happy to see her. My dad's gambling problem got worse the more he stressed about where my mom could be.

"I came back." she said as she walked inside.

Now that the light hit her whole body I noticed she isn't a brunette anymore. She came back blonde.

"Liana..... w-what. Why did you leave us?" my dad plopped on the couch as if he was going to faint. He starred at his hands trying to take this all in,

"I needed to clear my head." she said walking further away from the door.

"For three years?" I blurted

"I know it was long but I got things straight and I visited my past to fix things up..."

"I'm glad your back but I'm a afraid you'll leave us again. You know how hard it is to not have a mother around!" I snapped

No offense dad.

"Yeah it's not easy taking care of a teenage daughter all on your own!" my dad interrupted

"Like you even try. Don't blame things on me now. If you weren't so controlling I could have helped you out... not even help you, I would just do it all my self... like I always do!"

"What are you talking about Liana?" my dad got up from the couch and crossed his arms and glared at my mom

"You never let me live my life. You got me freaking pregnant at seventeen. You made me leave everything I had to come here!! I took care of your child and let you go out and let you have all the fun. I did everything you wanted me too. When you wanted to make love, I made love to you. Oh and I almost forgot. Your gambling problem. Trust me I didn't want to help you pay back your mistakes you made which was caused by the gambling. But I was like this man can take care of my child, so I took the money I saved up for to go to college which you didn't let me go by the way and I payed off your little problems!"

"Then why are you here? Huh... mom?" I started to tear up

"I thought your father would have changed..." she mumbled

"Emily go up to your room while I talk things out with your....--" my dad gestured his hands to the stairs

Before he could finish I ran up to my room. I slammed the door with so much strength I didn't know I had. I looked at the mirror and just stood there. I took out my hair tie out and put my hair into a high ponytail. I sat on my bed and just cry my heart out.

"Emily?"

"Oh my God! Andrew you scared the crap out of me." I wiped my face quickly so he couldn't see I was crying, but I bet he already did.

"Sorry." he smirked

"Hey... em what's wrong?" he whispered. He came through the window and sat right next to me. Knowing he cared about my feelings made me feel a little better.

"Nothing.." I smiled.

He put his arms around me and gave me a kiss on my nose.

I just smiled back again but this time I lay my head in his shoulder.

"Let's get out of here Em." he whispered in my ear

"My dad would kill if I went out this late especially going down the stairs with you." I chuckled while wiping my last tear.

He took his arms off of me, got off the bed and stood in front of me. He held out his hand as if he was offering to dance with me.

"Who said he would see us?" he smiled

I didn't smile back to be honest I was kinda scared...

"Come on. Trust... you have to learn how to trust."

I reached for his hand and he pulled me towards the window.

"I'll catch you!" he shouted as he jumped out with a perfect landing.

"Andrew have you been drinking?" I blurted

"C'mon. Jump! Jump out the window now Emily!"

I glared at him while crossing my arms

"I'm sorry. Em, baby, can you please jump? Please?"

Sigh. This will be the death of me.

God please don't let me die. Please please. I promise to go to church.

I sat on the window pane and closed my eyes. I jumped and covered my mouth so I wouldn't scream.

I actually landed in his arm. I got off a plopped onto my feet.

I still held on to Andrew. I grabbed my phone to see what time it is. But I couldn't find it in my pocket.

Crap. Crap. Crap. Shit. Shit.

I found it near the bushes. I pushed Andrew to ground and hurried to rescue it.

"Are you okay?" I knelt down on the ground.

"Yeah kind of." he groaned

"Not you stupid. My phone!" I picked it up and head towards Andrew

"Glad to know you care about me endlessly." sarcasm clear in his voice.
