She was so much like her mother, which I admired the most and helped me to recover from her death. She wzs the reason for me to wake up everyday, to smile, to laugh, to live without having the thought of commiting suicide leaving her orphan. She was...

So I reached home and it was at around 6.30 pm, I yelled as usual whenever I was home from an outing to dad, he answered from upstairs living room, he sounded either low or upset. Woah was it the usual or did Brandon? Did he somehow come to know? Ooooh why was I scared of dad the first time?
Of course not, it was part of the plan.
Yeah you heard me, read it well whatever, just keep listening, reading whatever device you re on. Sorry to be all Hannah Baker on you guys. Haha what I love the show.
"Hey Dad, woah..."I said as I entered the living room to see a very serious dad on his phone sitting on the couch so I sat next to him , eyes not leaving him. He suddently put on the speaker for me to hear.
"So I keep talking to you but you re just keeping quiet...hmm you dont have to be nervous love, I dont bite...I mean unless if you want to...but that d be only after the I dont know...15th date or something and only if you accept me first haha. Man you must think Im weird...its just it might sound creepy, cheesy at the same time but its true I keep watching you at the cafe, I could have come to you directly instead of talking like this now but you are so beautiful...Im scared to be out of your league...and I dont take rejections well, Im very sensitive so if this silent treatment is your way of rejecting me then..."I gasped softly looking at dad the phone and Dad's expressiom that made me gulp out of fear. Woah, Brandon was the real deal? He wasnt kidding? He wasnt the type of guy who would ask a girl's number to sleep with her! What have I done? I gave him dad s number! Coz I was afraid of Brandon to be like other guys out there so he could hear dad blast at him! Shit!

"You should really ask who s this on the line next mate mate! Might be someone's dad!"Dad talked finally making me jump, thought he was loud, more like sarcastic Chandler but that was new dad behaviour never seen before. I wanted to laugh and bury myself deep. Brandon was silent for a while except a faint breathing could be heard. I placed my hand on dad s leg in hopes it will calm him down.
"Hmmm I'm...oh my god...I'm really sorry sir. I thought it was Melissa's number"Brandon said shyly and you could hear how embarassed he was. I felt bad for him.
"I'm sure you are and it could have been her number. Is that your trick to get in young girls pants? Pulling the innocent boy type card? Almost got me"Dad said and I facepalmed myself. I deserved it! Not Brandon thought.
"Hmm oh no I wasnt joking sir, this is really me. My last relationship was my 1st and that was 6 years ago, she dumped me because she said I was too puppy whatever that meant. But what I feel for your daughter even if we havent officially met is real, I felt too shy to tell her"He talked again and I felt my heart racing again. Wow.
"Well not so shy to tell her father thought, could you tell her face to face at dinner tonight, I ll send you your number. Coz this is mine"Dad said and I jumped again in the most shock. He said what now? Dinner now? I cant believe it! Even Brandon as he coughed in shock, me too Brandon me too.
"Um Im sorry?"Brandon asked and I nodded mouthing to dad " yeah...what?".
"You heard me, get off the phone, get ready, come home for dinner , have some guts tell my daughter how you really feel. You re the only one I dont think is an arse so feel special. Case would have been different otherwise it wouldnt be pretty for you."Dad said winking at me. I was frozen in shock.
"Woah...That means a lot sir. I ll get ready, whats your name sir? To save your number"He asked, Dad chuckled.
"I'll tell you depending on how tonight ll be. Meanwhile its Mr Styles for you."Dad said and they said bye to each other before he cut the call. An awkward silence filled the room for a long time, noone moving except the weird tension.
"Dad..."I started scared.
"Melissa"He immitated me playing with his hands and I gulped.
"Dad, I gave him your number because I was scared he was one of the bad guys and you would scare him away. But I didnt know he was this nice, plus he s really cute. When the door knocks, its better to open right?"I said smiling at him childishly at the end hoping to lighten the mood up.
"I think I understood your intention and I thank you for trusting me but you re a big girl now as much as I hate it...and I ll not be here forever Melissa, things like this I believe you are mature enough to figure it on your own. You like this guy huh? Well first...you cant tell a guy is nice at the first moment, secondly, your room is a no boys zone and third...we have a dinner to organise"Dad said and I hugged him nicely.
"Wait so you re really cool with all this?"I asked him in his arms and he chuckled.
"If tonight turns out well then yes. Why do you think I will restrict you from boys? Oh because of last time? Heyy to my defence, he was drunk and was looking at your...Im not having this conversation with my beautiful innocent daughter. You get the point. Now lets go"Dad said making me smile in success. I have to tell Jenny and Theo, they were wrong about dad!
"I love you daddy"I said and he smiled widely.
"I love you my baby"He said kissing my forehead before we went downstairs. Dad called Patricia to make a quick, yet fancy dinner as Brandon will be hear any minute. He sent me his number so I left him a text.
To:Brandon Hiii sorry, this is really my number. See you tonight. Melissa
He replied instantly, wow I just met this guy and his name on my screen already made me smile like a crazy girl
From: Brandon Hi, well it turned out good for us. Too good. Im on my way. Waiting to see you.
In your faces, Jenny and Theo!
(A/N: Wooohooooo did you expect Harry to do this? The dinner is next chapter. What do you think will happen next? Yes Brandon is played by Shawn Mendes)
