I'm Supposed to Love You (Peterick)

Reward

"So....!" Razzel leaned on the table by me and stared at me intently.
"So.... what?" I asked.

"Can we go to Disneyland???" she asked.

"Depends..." I said, gathering my dishes and standing.

She followed me to the kitchen. "I know, I know!"

The night Joe and Andy came over, Patrick and I told Razzel if she stopped cutting, we'd take her to Disneyland.

I set the dishes in the sink and turned to face her.

She huffed and lifted her shirt up to her belly button.

The scars were fading, no new ones, just the old ones.

She gave me a hopeful look.

I smiled as I ruffled her hair. "Lemme talk to dad."

She let her shirt fall as I walked past her. "Panda!" She whined.

"What???"

"You guys promised!" she huffed.

"I know... but we still need to figure out who's going, the cost... when we're going..."

Her eyes lit up. "Okay!" she ran off to her room.

Patrick walked in and smiled at me. "Hey, babe!" he said cheerfully.

"Hey!" I said, smiling as he wrapped his arms around my neck and kissed me.

He pulled away. "So I talked to Frank and Gerard."

"And?"

"They said they might be able to make it. Depends when we go and when we come back. I guess they have a family reunion next month."

I nodded. "How about Amilee?"

"That's a for sure yes. Turns out they don't have another tour til next year."

"Joe, Marie and Andy?"

"Definate yes... Have you gotten a hold of Ashlee?"

I winced. "I was kinda hoping you'd do that."

"You know she doesn't like me."

"You know she loves me!"

Patrick rolled his eyes. "But you'll get somewhere with her... I ask and it'll be a no!"

I kissed his cheek. "I hate how persuasive you are..."

He smiled a smug smile and started toward the stairs. "Any updates?"

I nodded. "Yeah... they're fading and no new ones."

He sighed in relief. "Good..."

-Patrick.POV-

I knocked on Razzel's door. "Razzel, I'm home!"

She opened the door and hugged me. "Hi, daddy!"

"Hey, sweetie..." I smiled.

She smiled back before heading back into her room. "Did Panda talk to you?"

I shook my head. "Was he supposed to?"

She nodded. "About Disneyland."

Pete and I decided to make this trip a surprise. So we tell her we can't go. Then wake up on the day we leave and tell her we're going to her grandmas and pack the car up and go.

I sighed in fake disappointment. "Razzel, honey... we're not going to be able to go." I said.

Razzel froze what she was doing and looked at me. "What?"
