a/n: i'm so so sorry for not updating for like two weeks. online school had been hectic :( anyway, please comment and vote! love you guys ❤️

Before I knew it, a week had passed. It was 6 am and my alarm had just woken me up to get ready to go to the airport. My flight was to leave at 8:30.

I took a shower and got dressed in a pair of the black Lululemon leggings I always wear, a red USC sweatshirt, and plain white old skool vans.

I then went and did some last minute packing. I had two suitcases full of clothing.

Anyway, I was currently waiting for my dad to finish getting ready because he would be driving me to the airports. And yes, I share this apartment with my dad, but he's rarely ever home. He also works in the business industry and has a job that requires him to travel a lot. All across the country from here in LA to Chicago, Dallas, Miami, you name it. It sucks not getting to see him much, but his job is very rewarding — and not only financially.

"I'm ready, sweetheart." My dad yelled out from where seemed to be the kitchen.

I walked over to the kitchen where I heard his voice. "Morning."

"Good morning." He replied. "You hungry?"

I noticed he was getting out some eggs and a pan. "You're making your famous eggs. Of course!"

He replied with a chuckle and I went and sat down and scrolled through my phone. It had been about 15 minutes of me mindlessly passing time scrolling through all my social media until my dad finished cooking.

He made scrambled eggs and bacon with a

"Looks just as good it smells." I said as my dad carried the tray of food to our breakfast table. "I missed your homemade meals."

"Well, I try." He grinned as he laid the food down. "And it looks as if this will be your last one."

I grabbed a plate and began to dig in. "Sadly, yes." I said.

"Well, you're a grown woman now." He chuckled.

"I guess so." I said. "I'm a little nervous about New York and this whole internship thing honestly."

"And why is that?" He questioned.

"Well, to start, I've lived in LA my whole life. So, I know no one New York. And you do realize I'm going to be working along side the Josh Richards? I hope I don't make a fool out of myself." I rambled.

"First of all, Uncle Mike agreed to let you stay with him and he knows plenty of people." He stated. "And second of all you aren't going to make a fool out of yourself. You got this internship for a reason. Stop doubting yourself, Devyn."

"Thank you, dad." I smiled. "Really."

"You're welcome." He smiled. "Really."

We sat down and chatted for a couple more minutes until we both finished our food. I took his plate and mine and washed and dried them.

"Thank you, sweetheart." He said. "I think we should get going. We don't wanna be late."

"Alright." I said as I grabbed my purse and suitcase as my dad grabbed my other suitcase and headed to his car.

Once we got on the road, I had completely zoned out considering it was still 7 am.

...

I had just woken up when I heard about a 10000 ding sounds from my phone. I reached for my phone and saw that they were from Niki. She had spammed me.
