We Need That 'One Thing'

#27 Step1 - Get the Parents Out. (Skylar)

Hey! I know I haven't been up in a while, its because I had lots of tests and quizzes and WAY TO MUCH HOMEWORK. 

But I'm back now!! I know lots of you were begging me to update, so I found the time and got online!

So, this week I'm gonna do 25 reads because I want to update as quickly as possible.

Oh, and BTW, this story is dedicated to Ariel because after a horrible incident, i promised I would write for her no matter how many reads i get but i kept forgetting.

THIS ONES FOR YOU, YOU BUMNUGGET!!

"MOM! DAD! I GOTTA ASK YOU SOMETHING!!" Skylar screamed upstairs from the living room.

She knew that Becka was still setting up the stuff, and all the girls still needed to get to Sophie's house. 

Luckily, her dad got her out of SOME trouble. He was very upset at the fact that she lied, but he let her keep her phone, all her accounts, and her social life. But he said she had to face the consequences of her actions and he is now not allowing her to go on the tour.

At least she can keep in touch with her friends and see how they are doing. 

Unless her parents love the performance and let her go. So there might be an upside to all this.

"Yes, honey?" Her dad came downstairs, and from the look on his face, she can automatically see that he was still ashamed of what she did. She also realized that her mother didn't even bother to come downstairs to talk to her.

"Um...I thought that we should clear some things up and talk about our problems, all of us...over a nice dinner, maybe? At a restaurant? I mean, I hate being like this. It's not fair that we are all ignoring each other and hate each other." Skylar said, begging her depressed father, who was standing at the top of the stairs, motionless, just staring at her. "Dad?" Skylar asked.

"I'll...go...talk to your mother..." he said, and walked back up the stairs, not a sound being made.

Skylar leaned against the back of the couch, with only the deafening silence of the living room to keep her sane.

Yeah...NOT WORKING.

She was about to go completely insane. If they dont go, shes never gonna perform, and she will have no chance of getting back into the tour. NONE. ZERO. CERO. 

Sooner or later, more like LATER, her mother came downstairs. Skylar jumped up out of the couch, and looked at her mother curiously.

"I bet you're wondering why I came down..."

"Yeah, a little" 

"I just...I want to talk to you...no dinner, lets take a walk."

"Ugh. This is so cliche. People always take walks when they want to talk about something." 

"Just... trust me." 

"Will dad come?"

"No, he has to do some grocery shopping." her mother said, looking at the stairs, where Skylar found her dad spying on them. 

"DAD!" 

"Sorry! I was dying of suspicion!" her dad said, running back up the stairs, and coming down in like a minute, and getting into his car to go to the store.

"So now, we will take our walk, and talk about everything."

"Good. Cuz I really need to do some clearing up."

"Diddo." her mom said, using that word probably the first time SKylar has ever heard her mom use a silly word like that.

"Wait, just let me go change into my sneakers." And as Skylar went upstairs, she texted Sophie:

Change of plans. Me madre and I are going for a 'walk' so we will be back in like half an hour. You guys better work fast. Can't talk. gotta go. Bye.

And she ran downstairs, and her mom walked her out the door.

This may be the start of a new friendship with her mother.

Or not.
