Nicole's POV

"I'm not going" I stated seriously.

"Honey, I don't think you have another choice" My mother said sounding desperate.

"Oh, yes I have. I'm staying at home. Kevin will go to dad, and I'm gonna stay here all summer" 

"I won't be at home darling. I will stay all summer at Chicago." She said saddly.

"I don't need a guardian. I will be fine all alone" I said, being still stubborn. I'm not gonna change my mind.

"I know, but you can't stay here at home alone. I'm not gonna let that happen. I will quit my job or I don't know." She said desperatly. I can't let her do that.

"No, you won't!" I told her.

"Then please honey, go. You're father is so excited. He really loves both of you. He stated everything. He buyed the tickets, made your own rooms, you will go to trips. You will be fine near him. " She said between tears.

"Oh please. He doesn't even know me." I protested.

"That's what we both want to change" My mother said seriously.

"Please Nic! Just come with me! We're gonna have so much fun there with daddy!" Kevin said excitedly, trying to convince me. Oh noo..How can I say no to him when he wants to go that much.

"Just give him a chance, darling" My mother begged.

"Okay" I gave in. "When do we have to go?" 

"Next weekend. After you graduated." She told me.

"Fine. But please, take care of yourself at Chicago" I said as I hugged her tight.

I don't know what am I gonna do this summer. I have to spend three months with my dad, whom I hate. And on top of that, he lives in London! I can say goodbye to the hot summer...But seriously..three months with my dad? Kevin is so happy. Of course he is. He loves him. He loves his present-giver, hero   daddy! 

"You're going to London?" I heard Liz's voice through my phone. I had to call her.

"Yeah. I  have to spend the whole summer at my dad's" I said angrily.

"You'll be in the same town with One Direction. Can you believe it? Can you keep up?" She asked being histerical.

"Yeah sure. That's the only thing I'm thinking about right now. Liz, focus please! Who cares that One Direction lives there? I'll be with my dad, who is just an ass." I 'm really mad right now.

"First of all, I do care! Se cond, you will survive with, which is more, you're gonna like it. He is your father! And he loves you, no matter what. He left, but not because he doesn't love you. If you could open up your stubborn mind just for a second, you could see your real father. He wants to know you more, why don't you just let him?" She asked seriously. Oh my Godm, why is it so hard to understand that I don't want him in my life. I used to love him, he was my 'King' but that changed.

"Liz, I have to go. See you tomorrow! Bye!" I suddenly said in the phone.

"If you dare h..." I heard her scream coming, so I just turned off my phone. It was enough for today.

"Nicole come downstairs. Your father wants to talk to you for a sec" My mom shouted.

"Well, I don't" I shouted back. Why can't they just leave me alone?

"Nicole Jenifer Smith. You have 5 seconds, starting now" I heard her voice again. I decided to go downstairs, before she comes up. She was counting back, which was a bit childish I think. I raised my eybrow at her, before she pushed the telephone in my hands. 

"Hello." I said simply to him.

"Hello sweetheart. How are you?" It was good to hear his vioce. Hell, no! Sweetheart? Seriously?

"Good." I answered shortly. He probably doesn't expect me to say my whole life, which I wouldn't tell him anyway.

"Well, I wanted to talk to you. I'm really happy that you will spend the whole summer here with Kevin. I really miss you guys" Yeah, I can imagine. "I rebuilt my house, so you will have own bedrooms, bathrooms and stuff like that"  Who cares? " Your tickets are alreadty at your mom. You will sit in the first class"  Seriously? He still thinks that he can buy me. "I will be right there waiting for you when the plane arrives." He said sounding excited.

"Anything else?" I asked quickly.

"Nicole. I know you don't like the whole idea, but please. Give me a chance. For your mom, for Kevin." He begged. Oh please, I hope he's not trying to manipulate me.

"Okay. It will be good" I said, trying to calm him down.

"It will be amazing" Ha said happilly. I couldn;t help but smile.

"Take care of yourself. Bye" I told him as I hung up. I gave the phone back to my mum. I just need some time to figure out things. I don't want to hate him, I just can't change the fact that I'm still hurt...Nevermind. I have to graduate first, anyway.

"So, when's the big concert?" I asked Liz as we prepared for the graduation ceremony.

"Tonight. Tomorrow they will go back to London, just like you" She said.

"Oh. Must have been the fate.." I said sarcastically.

"Shut up. This is going to be the best concert ever" 

"Totally" I said with a bored face.

"I'm going to miss your sarcasm" She hugged me tight.

"I'm goint to miss your annoying butt" I said, still hugging.

"Can you belive that we graduated?" She asked excitedly.

"Actually, I can't. I still think that they messed something up. They probably didn't correct my papers" I chuckled.

"I absolutely agree with you." 

"Promise me that you will text me everyday!" She suddenly whispered.

"I promise!" I whispered too, with tears in my eyes. I won't cry, but it was a sad moment.

"Come, let's make our last stepps here" I told her, as we went to the ceremony...

"Promise me that you will be a good girl." My mom told me.

"Mom, I'm not 5 anymore" I informed her.

"I know hun, but I know how much you hate your father" she said saddly.

"It's gonna be alright. I will take care of Kevin, too I promise." 

"I know. You're a good sister." She said between tears.

"Please, take care of yourself. And text me, everyday" I told her. I couldn't bear if it happens something with her.

"I promise." She said, now crying.

"Please Kevin, look after your sister. Don't let her do stupid things" My mom whispered into Kevin's ears.

"Heeey!" I protested. Both of them were lauging.

"You should go chek in now. I can't go any further" My mom said, crying again.

"Love you mom!" We said in union with Kevin.

"Love you guys too!" She said crying and wawed. I took Kevin's hand, and on the other my big suitcase. Kevin was crying too. He qiuickly hid his tears, but I could see them. We stepped to the check in table, as a lovely woman helped with our suitcases. We're really going to London...
