Dinah's POV
"BANG!" Is the very first thing I hear as I'm awoken from my sleep. I try to ignore the noise and fall back asleep until I'm met with another loud noise and a scream,
"BANG! SMACK!" "Seth give it back!" I can automatically tell it's Regina. On days like these, i honestly hate my siblings.

Knowing there was no way I'd be able to get anymore sleep I decide to just wake up. I open my eyes and find that they are feeling a lot heavier. Thinking it is just from not getting enough sleep, I head to my bathroom and start getting ready for school.

I walk into the bathroom and walk straight to my sink. I grab my toothbrush, put some toothpaste on it and begin to brush my teeth. I look up at my mirror as I'm doing this and nearly jump when I see the person looking back at me.
Who is that? It's certainly not me. This person looks the exact same as me but there is no way that could be me. Their hair is a mess, their eyes are bloodshot red and half shut, they have massive bags under their eyes, there is dried up tears on their cheek and their nose is covered in snot. I refuse to believe this ragamuffin is me. How did this even happen?

That's when it hit me. All the memories of last night came flooding back. After my 'phone call' with Y/N, I had ended up crying myself to sleep last night. I start to think about it and my eyes start to well up again. That's when I hear a knock at the door.

"Dinah? Honey? Are you alright? You've been in the bathroom for quite a while and your siblings need to use the bathroom too" she says.

"Yea mom I'm fine. I'll be out in a couple minutes" I respond.

"Okay, breakfast is on the table so don't let your food get cold"

"Thanks mom" I say before starting my morning routine.

-------------------------------------
I'm now ready for school and eating the breakfast my mom had made for me. I was peacefully scrolling through my phone when I hear someone walk up to the kitchen table and sit down. I just choose to ignore them and continue on with what I'm doing. It was going very well until I started to feel eyes staring me down. I finally decide to look up and that's when I'm met with my fathers eyes looking at me.

"May I help you?" I ask.

"Nope. Just admiring my beautiful daughter" He says with a smile on his face.

"Thanks I guess?" I respond feeling uncomfortable with what's going on. I can tell he wants something but I can't tell what it is. I once again choose to ignore him and go back to scrolling through my phone. That's when I hear him cough. I just ignore it and act like i don't hear him. It didn't work though because he continues to cough until I look up at him.

"Yes?" I say with a smile, trying hard not to scream.

"Just wanted to talk to you about something" he says.

"And that is....." I say waiting for him to continue his sentence.

"Well word around the office is that you have a date with a fellow officer of mine" he says quickly.
I immediately choke on my food.

'Shit I totally forgot about that' I think to myself
"Wait how do you know about that?" I ask.

"Quincy has been gloating about it all week to people and word spreads around quickly" he says.
"I just want to make sure that I have a talk with you before you go out with him"

Oh god. Why is this happening to me.

"Now if it were up to me, like most the boys you go out with, I wouldn't let you go on a date, but your mom told me to stop treating you like a baby" he says. "So all I have to say is be careful. Quincy has sort of a reputation around the precinct and I don't want you to be another girl added to his collection."
