Chapter 8

I got home at around 5:15, and to say the least both dads were unhappy.

"Madison, we allowed you to go to the library but we didn't think you'd be out so late." Dad replied to my question as to why they were mad at me since I texted them.

"Whatever." I said brushing it off.

"Don't whatever me young lady! You get back here this moment." I heard dad call behind me, but I knew it would be dangerous if I went back to them, we would both end up mad.

"Calm down, Liam." I heard papa say. I put my headphones and proceeded to finish my math, music helped me, but don't try to tell dad that.

When I finished my math it was about 7:57 and I knew dinner was going to be ready soon, I could already smell it downstairs. Suddenly I got a flash of brilliance. I ran downstairs and bumped into papa, I really needed dad, but papa could answer my question too, possibly.

"Papa, who was Danielle's closest friend?"

"Um, probably auntie Eleanor or-." He paused. "Um, or Perrie."

"Who's Perrie?" I asked. Dad had brought her up when he told be about Danielle breaking up with him, and I heard papa say he wanted to tell me about her, but I still didn't really know who she was.

"This really isn't the time to talk about her. But why do you want to know?" I noticed his eyes turned a bit darker when he brought up Perrie, but now he had turned the conversation back onto me.

"Just wondering."

"Does it have to do with your sudden interest in Danielle and Liam's relationship?"

"No?" I replied, answering it like a question. He sighed.

"Madison, I have something I want, and need to tell you, but I guess now's not the time, I'll tell you after dinner." He said giving me a hug. That was odd, I thought, after he walked back into the kitchen putting his arm around dad's waist.

"Madison, dinners ready!" Dad called out a few moments later. I waited a second, and entered the kitchen, so dad wouldn't know I had been waiting in the entryway.

"What's for dinner tonight?"

"Chicken with a rosemary and lemon sauce."

"Yummy." I replied with a grin on my face, he knew it was my favorite dish. I grabbed a cup of water and sat down at my place at the table. Dinner was uneventful, papa was quiet and so was dad, except for him apologizing to me for blowing up, and I apologized to him for being rude. It was the calm before the storm.
