Unsteady** daddy Foley fanfic

F O U R

   I tell Justin that I will be at the park in 20 minutes and tell Sherri that I have to head home for some family emergency. She offers to drive me home but I insist on walking. I change back into my clothes and start my journey to the park. It starts to get a little dark, but it doesn't matter. As I am walking, I am wondering why in the world Justin Foley wants me to meet him at the park. I walk a few blocks and finally see the park in the distance, I continue to walk and get their early.

The park was empty, no kids were there, they were probably all eating dinner with their family, or getting ready for bed. I sit on the swing and rock back and forth remembering when I was little and lived in Florida. Back to the tune when I broke my arm.

I hear the bell ring for recess and I dart out the door, hoping to be the first one to the swings. I get there and sit on the swing. I swing really high and end up letting go and falling on my arm. I scream in pain and all of my friends surround me. I see the teacher pushing kids out of the way. She leads me to the nurse in the school where they call my aunt to bring me to the hospital. At the doctor, they put a cast on my arm and told me I couldn't participate in P.E. or recess and I remember going home and crying.

<<present>>

I swing for 20 minutes and then start to think that Justin has played me. Annoyed, I get up and start to leave until I hear "Dani, wait", I turn around and it's him, I breathe a sigh of relief and walk towards him. "Sorry I was dealing with my mom.", "Its okay, but why did you want me to meet you here?". He steps towards me and grabs my hand and pulls me closer. "Um, Justin", "sh-sh-sh I wanted to tell you this all day but couldn't so I wanted to tell you right here and right now.". I feel my whole body feel uneasy and my knees about to fall in at his touch and his deep, blue eyes burning a hole right through me.
"What is it?", I say with a shaky, uneasy voice. He takes a deep breath and opens his mouth to say something but then steps back and runs his hand through his hair and says, "I wanted to say that if you need help with anything, like homework, I can help." I feel a little disappointment, I expected him to say something else, I don't know what but just anything else. I don't know why I care so much but it's just something about him that captivates me even though i just met him. I swallow the disappointment and say "thanks, jj". He laughs at the nickname I made for him and then says, "Can i walk you home?". "Yeah sure."

We leave the park and walk quietly side by side. I feel like earlier he wanted to say something else but changed his mind last second. The walk is very silent and we are about two blocks from my house. "So, tell me about yourself." Justin says breaking the silence. I take a deep breath and say "Well, I lived with my aunt because my parents couldn't afford to take care of me until just now. So I lived in Florida most of my life, and I'm trying to get used to having another teenager around the house because I was the only kid in Florida". "Ohh, well how does your brother feel about this, I mean did he know you even existed?". I let out a little laugh at his curiosity and say "He didn't know me until yesterday and boy was he angry at mom and dad, he stormed out of the house for a few hours, but he came back and apologized and we talked for a little bit." . He nods and I have his full attention, he then asks, "Did you know about your parents and your brother.". I frown a little and say, "Yeah I knew them, I saw pictures and I always talked on the phone with my parents and saw them every once in a while, but never got to know Clay, I don't know why they kept it from him.". He nods and so I ask him questions. "So, what sports do you play, Foley?", he looks at me and answers "Basketball and baseball." I nod my head and tell him about cheerleading tryouts. He supports the idea and seems like he really wants me to do it. We laugh a lot about other little things we talk about and continue to ask each other questions when the question slips out, "Do you have a girlfriend?", I immediately feel embarrassed and wanna jump off of a cliff, but then he smirks and all of my embarrassment seems to go away. "Actually, no, I was dating Jessica but we just broke up.". I nod my head and we walk quietly the rest of the way. He walks up to my doorstep with me and kisses the top of my hand before I walk inside.

I lean against the door when I shut it and smile. I walk upstairs and go into my room and get ready for bed. I tossed and turned all night thinking about the events such as meeting Zach, bumping into Alex, practicing with Sherri, and the best of all that walk home with Justin.
