Daughter of the Guitarist

Chapter 12

In the morning I shut off my alarm and got in the shower. I straightened my long hair so it fell down my back, put on my make up and went to my closet. I put on skinny jeans, a black studded belt, and a red and black shirt.

I grabbed my bag and went downstairs. Brian was in the kitchen, "Hey baby." He said as I ran to hug him. He picked me up and kissed me. "R u ready for school?"

I nodded and we left. Brian kissed me goodbye and I went to algebra.

Jake smiled at me. "Where were you yesterday?"

"Home." I said. "I didn't sleep so my dad let me stay home."

"Why didn't you sleep?"

"I don't know," I said. "I just didn't."

Mrs. Miller called the class to order. She gave me my make up work from yesterday and I went to my next class. I got all my make up work and Matt picked me up.

"How much homework do you have?" He asked.

"A lot," I said. "Remind me to never stay home again."

Matt laughed and ruffled my hair. He dropped me off and I went to my room to start my homework. When I finished I changed into some pajamas and went downstairs.

All the guys were there, dad and Matt were cooking out on the grill, while everyone else was in the pool. I ran to my room and changed into my favorite bikini, pink with black writing. It said 'Hustler' all over it. I jumped in the pool and out of nowhere I was picked up on Brian's shoulders. Alyssa was on Jimmy's and we played chicken. Jimmy tickled my feet and caused me to fall.

I jumped on Alyssa and we both went under the water.

"What was that for? She laughed. "My dad did it."

"I felt like it."

Jimmy picked us both up and threw us. I ran and hid behind Brian and Alyssa soon followed me. He was our body guard and protected us from Jimmy.

"That's not fair," Jimmy protested, "you can't hide behind Syn."

"We can," I yelled, "and we will."

Matt reached in and picked me up by my waist. "Hey," I yelled, "I was playing, put me down, Matt."

"Did you finish your homework?" He asked, gently shaking me.

"Of course I did, uncle Matt."

"Girl, you're light as hell," He laughed. "Does your dad not feed u?"

"I weigh 100 pounds." I said. "My old family were all tiny and petite."

"How tall are you?"

"Five-two, give or take."

Matt dropped me back in the water; I fell on my man. He smiled, holding me to his chest and kissing my head.

"Hey beautiful," he said.

"Are you and him dating?" Alyssa asked.

I nodded, "Yeah, why?"

"Just asking homie."

Brian kissed my lips and smiled at me. He picked me up bridal style and threw me in the water.

"Time to eat," Matt yelled. "Everyone out the pool."

We all got out and made our plates. I sat next to Alyssa on a towel in the grass. Brian sat next to me and kissed my cheek.

After dinner we all got back in the pool. Matt slid between my legs and picked me up on his shoulders. Johnny was on Brian's shoulders and we played chicken. He won when Matt lost his balance, knocking us both under water.

Dad came over to me, "We need to talk Bella."

Oh no...
