Steph's P.O.V
A few months had passed since the start of second semester and we only had about two months left before the semester was over. I haven't seen my dad since the day he randomly showed up, it was quite surprise I thought he would have come back. English class was pretty horrible even though Igot to stare at Rob for about an hour everyday.
"Excuse me Mr.Downey, would I be able to borrow you and Stephanie Pollock for a moment please?" Mt.Blythe asked interupting the class. I got up out of my seat and we headed out in the hall closing the door behind us and heading down the hall a bit. We knew what it was about so we didn't want to talk about it right outside the door.
"Some guy called in and told me about you guys, now I'm not going to report it yet but if I get anymore calls I'm going to have to. Especially when I could lose my job if they go over my head to the board." Mr.Blythe explained. "I knew he would do it, that must have been my dad,"I pointed out. "Well your dad or not, you two better be careful," Mr.Blythe warned. We nodded in agreement and headed back into the classroom.
I was pretty mad at my dad for the rest of the day for doing something like that.
...
"It must have been your dad that called in because we have been extremely careful at school, I'ts quite painful, especially when you make those flirty faces at me all the time." Rob said frustrated. I giggled and said "Sorry, sometimes I just can't help it." "Ya sure whatever" He said rolling his eyes,
"Well lets just hope no one else calls." I said before we pulled into the driveway and of course waiting for us was a nightmare.
"Dad what do you want from me? Why can't you just leave me alone? You didn't seem to have a problem doing that before." I said getting out of the car and walking up to him with Rob not far from us waiting by the car in case I needed him. "I'm sorry I was stupid to let you leave, can't you just come home please?" he said trying to sound sincere but it just wasn't sincere enough. "No dad this is my home now and it took you so long to even come apologize, I'm not coming back." I yelled. "You don't have a choice you're coming home!" He yelled grabbing my arm but I pulled it away. I knew Rob was going to try and help me but I motioned for him not to because I didn't want anything to get started and I knew Rob would beat him anyway.
"I'm 18 dad you don't have control over me anymore, I'm going to be 19 soon too, I can make my own decisions and you can't force me to do anything. Please just go home and stay out of my life before I let Rob hit you and trust me you don't want that. Now go and don't ever come back." I said sternly pointing away from the house.
"Fine I'll go, but you'll see me again. I'll always be in your life." He said backing away. Rob got up off the car and walked over beside me pulling me into his side. I wanted to just loosen in his arms but I couldn't yet, not while my dad was still there. So as soon as he was out of sight I relaxed into Rob's arms and we headed into the house.
"Are you okay?" Rob asked rubbing my arm. "Ya just tired of him coming around and he's only been here twice. If he did this maybe a week after I left maybe I would go back, but after being away from him for so long I realize how bad my life was, I just hope my mom is okay." I said wrapping my arms around his waist.
Of course my stomach decided to growl in the silence and both silently laughed and pulled apart. "We better get you something to eat," Rob said rubbing my stomach. I was sure if that gave me butterflies in my stomach or if it was just because I was hungry. Maybe both.
