My Best Friends Dad

Chapter 67: Talk it out

"Hey it'll be ok, it's going to be fine." Paige hushed, as she wrapped me in a warm blanket. We were in her room, and she was comforting me. It was so weird, considering it's been a year since she had found out that I've been sleeping with her dad...

"I don't... I don't know what to do anymore. Everything's just... Ruined?" I cried, as she hugged me and consoled me. Why was she being so nice to me?

"Look, I'm still kind of pissed and weirded out about what has happened in the last year. But living without you by my side has been unbearable. I'm usually not the wild child, and you just make everything so much fun. I've missed you... I hope you can forgive me." She apologized, handing me a tissue from her desk.

"I'm the one who should be apologizing... I'm so messed up... and your dad... I just..." I started to cry, tears rolling down my face. Paige gave me another hug, and told me everything was going to be alright.

"I have some bad news though Sami... My dad... he's kind of... engaged." Paige bluntly told me, not having a filter whatsoever. What the fuck? Could my life get any worse?

"What??" I gasped, trying not to pass out from shock. It's only been a few months. It's almost May for gods sakes, when I graduate and turn 18 on the 31st I can marry him.

"Apparently my great gran was a millionaire and had my dad in the will. It stated that he had to marry to receive the amount of money she left. Dads been struggling to make it by, with the child support and all. So he met with one of the subs at school. They've been dating a few months and... They are engaged." She told me with a sigh, sadness in her eyes.

"So that's why you decided to come talk to me. Because I'd be better than a random lady?" I sobbed, my heart broken over the news. The lady at the bar was... his fiancé.

"Partly, I guess." She sheepishly grinned, knowing that I figured out her plan. I shook my head, and hid my face under the pillow.

"I'm such an idiot. I'm been such an idiot. No, I don't want to do crazy ass shit anymore. I don't want to ruin people's relationships and life's. I love Tyler. But I'm just going to have to.." I choked, fighting the urge to just bawl my eyes out.

"I have to let him go..."
