Rob's P.O.V
I looked in the mirror at my eyes. They were red and puffy with tears ready to fall but I held them back. A figured appeared in the mirror and I looked up to see Stephy behind me. She smiled slightly and walked over wrapping her arms around from behind me. I looked at myself once more and slowly turned to face Stephy. A few tears fell down my cheeks and I put my head in the crease or her neck. Hugging her for a while.
"Are you ready?" She whispered. I took a deep breath and took a step back turning to look in the mirror again. I wiped my eyes and turned around once again. "Let's go."
My mom's funeral felt long but Stephy was right by my side the whole time. I didn't acknowledge her much but just knowing she was there meant a lot and I think she understood that. I looked around to see all my mom's friends and our family around us. Some I barely knew other I just hadn't seen in a while. My mom wasn't very old yet she was only 43, but she had cancer. She didn't even get to be a grandmother.
I looked over to Stephy just looking down at the casket I was glad she was here and I couldn't wait to have a life with her. 7 more months and we can finally be together.
"Hey thanks for being there today Stephy, I never could have made it through that without you," I said sitting next to her on the couch. "Anyting for the love of my life," She said kissing my forehead. "Plus I got to miss school" She added to make me smile. "I love you" I said with a slight smile. "I love you too, now it's been a long day why don't we head up to bed," She suggested.
"Can we just sit here for a while first?" I asked leaning my head on her shoulder. "Sure," She whispered running her hand through my hair.
... week later
"Guess what" Stephy said. "What?" I asked drying my hair with the towel. "I start your class today," she said with a smile. "Oh that will just be hell for me." I said smiling and walking closer to her. "Hey what's that supposed to mean!?" She said hitting my arm. "I have to sit through a whole class with you and I can't even kiss you." I said placing my hands on her hips. "well," she started looking down at her watch, "you have approximately 20 minutes before we have to leave." "Well in that case," I began putting my lips right close to hers, "I better get dressed." I walked over to my dresser and pulled out some clothes.
"I'll meet you in the car," she said and I heard the front door close. I quickly fixed my hair threw on my jacket and headed out to the car. But stopped just outside the door when I saw steph talking to someone. She looked pretty angry.
Steph's P.O.V
"What the hell are you doing here?" I said as I walked down the driveway toward my father. "What I can't stop by to see my daughter?" He said lifting his hands. "Not when I'm happy you can't" I said making him back up a bit. "So Mr.Teacher guy over there is taking good care of you then?" He asked. I turned to look up at the house where Rob was standing. I could see his body was tense and I knew I had to get rid of my dad before he did.
"would you just get the hell out of here, I have to get to school, and just don't come back here okay, I have nothing to say to you" I said pointing for him to leave. "Fine i'll go but one last thing" he said. "What?" his hand flew at me and crossed my face peircingly. I reached to my face but pointed for him to leave still. I looked up to see him walking away then turned to face where Rob was who was now right by me.
"Don't worry i'm okay" I said and started walking towards the car again. "Are you sure?" He asked. "Ya we better get going,"I said and got in the car. It was a quiet ride to the school because I didn't want to talk about what happened.
Rob's class wasn't to hard to sit through since we hadn't really talked since this morning. I spent most of the class just talkin with Bobby. I knew Rob would make me talk about it eventually though so I figured I would tell him after school.
...
"Alright let's hear it, what do you want to know?" I said as Rob closed the front door. "Well first who was that? and second what were you talking about?" He asked immediately. I laughed a little and said "That was my dad and he was just asking about me Idon't quite know what he really wanted." I explained. "Okay well ext time make sure I'm with you so he doesn't hurt you again." He said rubbing my arm.
"You know what, He knew you were a teacher, has he ever met you before?" I asked curiously. "No actually I didn't really recognize him, he was never even at the parent teacher thing, it was always just your mom." He said looking confused as well. "Okay well I have a bad feeling, but lets just hope that feeling is wrong." I said and pulled Rob in for a hug.
