A/N: Sorry for the late update. I wrote this chapter a week ago (I think) and I got distracted with a couple of ideas for a couple of new books,(Because I NEED more things to write right now XD)  well one was only supposed to be a one shot but I'm currently on Chapter 4 of that one so, you see how that went. I will eventually publish what I have of that one too. I'm kind of in Creative Limbo with Catch Me If You Can So Updates for that one will be slow sorry about that. 
Also Still having trouble working out the spacing issues so sorry if this chapter looks like a mess. 

Lyric sat at the kitchen table obsessively writing and erasing and then playing a few chords on her guitar before shaking her head in frustration and erasing off of her paper again. She reached a shaky hand out to her third cup of coffee that morning just before her father took it from her. 
"You are cut off until you stop vibrating." He said. Lyric sighed. 
"Probably wise.. Is it possible for a 17 year old to have a heart attack?" She asked. 
"Why don't you take a break honey you've been at this all night." 
"Because I don't know how to take a break. This is due after thanksgiving break and I have nothing! I have been waiting all this time to work on an Original piece for Mr. Jones class and when the time comes, I have nothing I can't do it. My inspiration is spent." Lyric groaned. 
"Let me see what you have."Darren said and reached out for her notebook he took it and started reading over it. 
"This is looking good Lyric it really is. You just need a break to recharge. Why don't you start helping me get prepared for dinner tonight maybe Mr. Jones can help you when he comes over later." 

Yes. it is entirely possible for a 17 year old to have a heart attack "Uh. What?" Lyric asked. 
"I didn't tell you I invited him to dinner?" Darren asked. 
"No. No you didn't." Lyric said. "Why did you invite him to dinner?" 
"Well he had something he wanted to share with all of us, and I figured the least I could do was cook the man dinner." 
"Or.. not? Dad that's so weird." Lyric sighed and ran her hands through her hair. Things had been incredibly tense between her and Killian since last month when she had gone to that party, even more so that her and Will had started dating after that and he caught them kissing in between classes a couple weeks ago, she hadn't even gotten the chance to tell him that she had broken up with Will just before break and he had changed his number so texting was not an option. They were strictly Student and Teacher nothing more, nothing less and Killian made it seem like a cake walk, while Lyric was living in her own personal hell. 
"Why is that weird?" Darren asked. 
"I don't know it just is. It was weird enough when he came over to play cards with you. Now hes coming over for dinner?" Lyric asked. 
"You'll survive." Darren chuckled. "Why don't you invite Will?" 
"Because I broke up with Will before break.." Lyric shrugged. "We're still friends its just kind of awkward." 
"Why did you break up?" Darren asked. 
"It just didn't feel right." Lyric replied, and it didn't. Nothing had felt right, not since Killian. 
"Well, sometimes that happens." Darren smiled. "You okay?" 
"Yeah. Dad I'm fine. I'm just mortified you invited my teacher over for dinner." 
"Oh hush and help me peel potatoes." Darren smirked.
