Miss Miller [Completed]

Chapter twenty two: Happiness

I ran through the door as fast as I could. "Dad, dad, dad, dad!" I yelled as I ran to his office.

He was sitting at his desk and when I ran in, he took his glasses off and looked at me. "Skylar, where's the fire?" He chuckled.

I slide my phone on the desk towards him. "Press play."

"What?" He asked as he looks at me. He looks down at the phone for a moment. "Skylar, if this is a recording of me farting in my sleep, I swear-"

"Just press play."

I watched as he did so, and he held the phone up to his ear.

I stood there watching as his expressions was all over the place. He looked confused, then in disbelief, then mad as hell.

After the recording was done, he laid the phone down and stared at it. He looks up at me then gets up and walks around his desk. He wraps his arms around me and gives me a long, strong hug.

"Skylar, I am so sorry." I could tell he was on the verge of crying.

I pat his back. "It's ok."

"No," He pulls back and looks at me. "I should have known. I should have listened to you in the first place. I'm a terrible father."

I watch as his eyes stared into mine and I could see the emotions behind them. I knew he was really sorry and it made me feel better.

"We need to take this to the police." He grabs the phone and I follow him out of the room.

We start walking to the front door, until someone came walking in. Ana walked in and stopped when she saw us. "Greg." She smiled but soon it faded when dad was staring at him with his arms crossed.

"Get the hell out of my house. Now!"

She looks between us, looking confused. "What?"

"You're nothing but a manipulator! I'm showing the police this audio." He held up my phone.

She stares at it until her eyes landed on mine. I smiled as I crossed my arms. It finally clicked and I could see terror on her face.

"You have to listen to me, Greg."

"Get out." He pushes her out of the door. "I'm calling the police now."

I lean against the doorway, smiling. I waved at her as she walked to her car. The look on her face said it all. She was pissed and I loved every minute of it.

Ana was arrested that day and I couldn't stop fucking smiling. I was beyond happy. It was a dream come true. Everything was starting to look better in my life.

I was currently laying my feet on my dads lap as he was reading on the other side of the couch. I couldn't help but stare at the ceiling as I was genuinely happy at this moment.

As I was laying there, I instantly remembered something.

Julie.

I lean up and it caught dads attention. He looks over at me. "Um, can I got somewhere?"

"You're grounded."

I groaned. "Ok, but can I just go somewhere real quick?"

"Where?" He asks.

I had to come up with a good enough excuse. Make something up, Skylar. "Nicole wanted me to come help her study."

He continued to watch me. "She can't come over here?"

I shake my head. "She just wants to hang out a little. Please, dad."

He sat there thinking about it for what felt like forever. "Sure, but no later than six."

I look over at the clock on the wall and noticed it was four now. That left 2 hours to be with Julie. That was enough for me.

I quickly hugged him then ran out of the door in a rush. I couldn't contain my excitement. I just wanted to see her.

Hug her.

Kiss her.

It wasn't long until I was pulling into her driveway. My nerves were present again and I was shaking while knocking on her door. I still get nervous around her and it showed.

I waited as I was growing more nervous. I heard footsteps on the other side of the door. When she opened it, everything around me faded. I couldn't help but smile as I stared at her.

"Skylar?" She opens the door wider for me. She shuts it after I walk inside. "What are you doing?"

I turn to face her. "I wanted to come see you." I smile. "I missed you."

She smiled. "I missed you too. Where were you today?"

I gave her a confused look. "What do you mean?"

"You're weren't at the school the rest of the day after you left my class. They said you were absence."

Oh. I smile then shrug. "I had something to do."

"What?" She crosses her arms.

I couldn't help but chuckle as I unwrapped her arms and wrapped mine around hers and leaned my head against her shoulder. "You're so cute."

We stayed in that position for a moment. I pulled back to look at her. I leaned up and pressed my lips against hers. Something I would never get tired of.

She cupped my face to bring our lips closer. If possible. I could feel her smile against my lips.

I grab her face and start kissing her all over. Her forehead. Her cheeks. Her nose. Her lips. Ugh. I couldn't get enough of her.

"Skylar," She laughed. "stop."

I look at her. "Why?"

She smiles, caressing my cheek. "You're too much."

I shrug, pulling her into a hug and sighing. She wraps her arms around me. We stay in that position for a while until she pulls back.

"What's going on? Why are you acting like this?"

I shrug. "Like what?"

She smiles. "Affectionate."

"You don't like it?"

She quickly shakes her head. "No- I do. I was just wondering." She smiles.

I pull her into another hug and shut my eyes. With her I feel at home. I feel safe. All my problems seem to melt away when I'm with her.

It's something very scary.
