Daddy's Best Friend

Chapter Ten

After going to lunch with Sean we came back to my house and just relaxed and watched Netflix. We were cuddling on the couch and it was about 7 o'clock and my mom came home from work. 

"Hey Leah, i'm gonna go take a shower. Mr.Dolan is running the office her while your dad is out of town and needs some papers that of course your dad left here, so when he gets here just show him to dads office." she said. "Oh hi Sean." she added and went upstairs.

We continued to watch tv for 30 more minutes until I heard a knock on the door. 

I got up and walked to the door. I opened it and Grayson was standing there wearing his work suit looking good as fuck. He smiled and stepped in. He looked around and when he didn't see anyone he leaned in and tried to kiss me but I pushed him back. 

"Hey Sean Graysons here i'm gonna go help him look for some papers." i said not making eye contact with Grayson. 

" Ok babe." Sean responded and i turned around heading up the steps. I walked to my dads office.

When we got in he closed the door making me jump. I turned around and he was rolling up his sleeves walked towards me. I walked back until I ran into my dads desk and couldn't go back anymore. 

He got done rolling up sleeves and he looked up at me finally. His jaw was clenched and he had a straight face, he was pissed. And let me tell you pissed off is a good look on him. We were so close now that i could feel the breath coming out of his nose.

"What is he doing here?" he asked looking me straight in the eye not giving up that intimidating look.

"We went out to lunch and then we came back and have just been laying on the couch ever since." i said a little shaky.

"Was he..touching you? Kissing you?" he asked pushing more up against me so that I was sitting on my the desk.

He didn't give me a chance to answer but instead he said "I don't like other guys touching what is mine." he said basically through gritted teeth. 

"I didn't know I was yours." i said just over a whisper.

"Well now you do." he said. I grabbed his face and brought his lips to mine. He pulled away and reached behind me grabbing a stack of papers. "Found em." he said, turned around and walked to the door but before he walked out he said "Dump his ass." and walked out.

I rolled my eyes and got off of the desk and walked down stairs to see he was already gone.I walked back into the living room and Sean was cleaning up. 

"What are you doing?" i asked.

"I have to help out my dad in the morning and its getting a little late."  he said. I nodded and walked over to him giving him a hug and walking him out.

I walked back up stairs and checked on my mom and she was sound asleep. I smile and walked into my rooms. I changes my clothes and got in bed. 

When I was scrolling though instagram I got a text message from Grayson and it said "Send me another picture babygirl." I rolled my eyes and said "No i'm a sleep." and put my phone on the charger and put in down on my night stand.

I just pulled up at the cafe and it was almost completely empty. I woke up late and it was about 12 and i had nothing to do so, I came here.

I walked in and Alex wasn't here since it's Sunday he never works on Sunday's. The back booth where I sit was empty so I sat down. I ordered my coffee and mt bagel and pulled out my journal.

I was writing for about an hour and got bored and I realized I hadn't heard from Grayson since he came by last night. I have texted but no response. Is it too soon to be that girlfriend, or whatever I am to him, to go over when he is not answering. I decided to just text him and tell him I was bringing lunch.

I got some Chick-fil-a and I was heading to his house. I got to his drive way and pulled up to the gate, fuck i forgot he had a gate. The guard dude stuck his head out and saw me and opened the gate.HM maybe he saw me before? 

 I parked my jeep and walked up to the front door I got a text message from him saying "Hey, sorry but I'm not home. Thanks babe, I will call you later." THAT LITTLE FUCKER. Holy shit am I mad. I knocked on the door because i didn't make this trip for nothing. We are either going to eat this food or i'm going to throw it at him for lying and trying to hide whatever it is he is trying to hide.

He opened the door and his eyes popped right out of his head. His face was priceless. "OHH i'm sorry you're not home." i said in a sarcastic tone. 

"Leah, i can ex-" he got cut off by a "Daddy come back!" then out came running a little boy.

"Hey bud I will be right back just go back in the living room." he said but the little boy didn't listen. 

The little looked from Grayson to me and said "Hi, i'm Dallas. Nice to meet you." He held his hand out for me to shake and i did. "What's your name?" he asked.

"I'm Leah." I said.

"Oh, hi Leah. Is that food for us?" he asked in a jumpy voice.

"Uh yeah here you go." I said bending down and handing him the bag of food. 

He took and and ran off screaming "YAY." 

"Dallas what do you say?" Grayson asked. 

"Thank you Leah." i heard.

There was an awkward silence until Grayson rubbed his chin and opened the door to let me in more. But before I stepped in I asked "Is she here?" in a whisper, a little afraid to hear his answer.

He looked at me and said "No." I nodded and walked in heading to the kitchen as he followed behind. 

"So is this why you have been ignoring me? Why didn't you tell me? It's not that big of a deal." i said.

"I didn't tell you because I haven't seen my son in months and I didn't need him meeting you and asking questions." he said with an attitude that i did not appreciate.

"Well I would've come if i got a damn reply to at least one of my messages." i said.

"I have to take care of him all by myself I don't have time to text you back after all of the thousands you send me." he said scoffing. Oh lord this lil boy is asking for me to kick his ass in front of his kid.

"Are you shitting me right now? you don't have ten seconds to tell me you are busy? I mean come on Grayson he seems like he is capable of being okay  for literally ten seconds." i said returning the attitude. 

"Yeah you think you wouldn't know. You're just a kid Leah." he said basically yelling and getting frustrated. Damn this escalated way to quickly. 

"Wow okay so since i'm just a kid i'm gonna get home before i miss my bedtime." i rolled my eyes and walked past him heading out.

He grabbed my wrist and spun me up to his chest. "I'm sorry you know that's not what i meant. I'm stressed ok, i haven't ever done this by myself." he said.

"Then let me help you. That's what i'm here for. I'm here to be there for you, so let me." i said putting my hands on his face. He smiled and kissed me. 

We walked into the living room and Dallas was eating chicken nuggets and watching cartoons. We got our food and ate on the couch and Dallas sat on the floor eating on the coffee table.

Well shit, this is going to be fun.
