The Fall of the Bad Boy

Clara Scott

Dad ran out when we pulled in the driveway and he give me a hug.

"Thanks, boy." He said and looked at me. "Ms, you are in so much trouble." He said and then sighed and pull me in for a hug.

"I'm okay, Dad." I said. "I'm sorry for the trouble."

"I didn't know you went on a DATE!" Dad said.

"I know." I said feeling more guilty.

Dad looked at Evelyn. "Oh.."

"Hello, Mr.Scott, I'm Evelyn."

"Hello." Dad said. "You made quite a lot of friends here, Clara." He seemed happy.

"Have a good night, Mr.Scott. We are sorry for the trouble." Evelyn apologized.

"Will you dropping her home, Emmett?" Dad asked.

"Yes, sir." Emmett said.

"Have a good night, children." Dad said and they all gathered around Emmett's car. We watched them leave before we walked inside the house.

"You are still grounded." He said and I groaned.

"I had plans with friends on Sunday." And he raised one of his eyebrow.

"But okay." I said.

"We will still tour the city, though." He smiled and I smiled back.

I took a shower again before going to bed. I texted Evelyn if she reached home and she texted with a Yes and ask if my Dad said anything to me.

"Just grounded."

She apologized, "Not your fault, I don't think I can join you guys on Sunday."

"Got it. Have a good weekend and thank you for coming with me on the date."

"You're welcome."

I soon fell asleep. The next morning, we slept in a little and after breakfast we went to Shedd Aquarium, we spent quite a while over there clicking pictures and watching shows. We spent two hours over there and after that we went for lunch. We had delicious Chicago's pizzas and then went to the field museum. There were quite a lot of people at that time, but we took our time to look around the museum and the informations they offered. We ended the day over there and decided to go home after that, before stopping for bubble tea!

When we reached home, Dad said he will cook dinner and I couldn't be happier.

"What do you want to eat for dinner?" He asked with a smile.

"Your Tuna Wrap." I said excitedly.

"Okay, you want to invite your friends for dinner?"

"Why?" I asked.

"Because I want to meet them.." he said.

"That's like six people."

His eyes widened in surprised.

"Who's the other three?" He asked.

And I was thinking what did he mean until I realized and laughed.

"Emmett and Theo are not my friends, they are just classmates."

"Wow, Clara. You made lots of friends here."

"I know,right." I said surprised as well.

"Call all of them for dinner,tomorrow." He said. "Including Theo and Emmett."

"I think they are busy." And plus I don't have their numbers.

He give me a look. "Fine." I said.
