Allison Jackson

Chapter 13

Justin's P.O.V

I was really getting stressed out looking for Ally. I need coffee. I stopped by Ihop to get a coffee. I went inside and stood in line. The line was quite long but I didn't mind.

I took a look at the people eating, smiling and laughing. It caused me to smile but my smile didn't stay that long when I was Luke and a girl in front of him. I bet that's Ally.

I stepped out if line and went to where there was sitting. Finally I found this girl.

Ally's P.O.V

I was really having a great time with Luke. I never would've imagine me eating breakfast and laughing with him.

I was finshing my last pancake then saw somebody from my peripheral vision. I turned to look and it was Justin. I was frozen and didn't know what to do.

"Ally where have you been? I've been looking for you all day. Your dad is going cra-

"What happened to your face, I got up to look at his face and touched his face. He flinch when I touch his bruise below his eye.

"Um... your dad. He umm.... he hit him because I didn't know where you were." He looked down and breathed slowly. I can't believe my dad would do this.

"I'm not coming home. I'm sorry. I can't. I don't want him to hurt me." I looked down and forgot that Luke was here. I took a look at him and he had a worried look on his face.

"He won't hurt you. I'll make sure of that ok, he said holding my hand. I looked at him and smile. I need to go home.

"Ok I'll go home." I got up and start to walk behind Justin but then I stopped.

"Ally you alright, Justin asked. I turned around and walked where Luke was still sitting. I stood there with my arms opened wide. He got the memo and hugged me. His hug is so warm.

"I'm gonna miss you, he said in my ear. I got the chills and smiled.

"Imma miss you too." I let go and left. I hope I could see him again. I git inside the car and sat there not wanting to say nothing. The car ride was silent and awarkard. I didn't like the feeling at all. We approached the house and I don't want to go in.

"It's alright. I'm here." I smiled and got out. I opened the door and got in. I went insude the living room to see my dad sitting in the couch with his hand on his face. I stood still until he realized I was here. He looked up abd he's face was drained. I've never saw him like that.

"Allison is that you?" I nodded and wait for his reactions. But surprisingly he came up to me and hugged me. I flinched a little. I can't believe he's hugging me. I hugged hin back and felt the warm embrace. I love this feeling.

"I was worried sick vvabout you. I thought you were lost or even hurt. I'm so glad that your safe and here, he said touching my face and looking if I have bruises or scars.

"I'm fine dad. I just went to a party last night and.... I was scared to continue when I saw is face.

"Go upstairs. We'll talk there." I obeyed and went to my room. I wonder what he was going to say or do to me. I'm feeling nauseous. I'm going to yell Justin's name if he is going to touch me.

The dor creaked opened and revealed my dad's face. He came to sit by me and I sat still. Real still. He took a deep breath. Then spoke.

"You know I love you." I didn't breath for a second and realizr this isn't a dream. I know that my dad loves me but he never says it to me. I looked at him and smiled.

"Do you care to tell me what happened last night?" Oh great.

"Well I went to a party with a friend-

"Which is...?" I rolled my eyes and huffed.

"Which is a boy. And he's just a friend. And we went and I was having a great time. Then I drank, vomited, and took me to his house I could sleep. He didn't do anything." He sat there for a awhile and didn't say anything.

"Why didn't you call me? I was worried sick."

"If I would've told you, you would've yelled at me."

"I would've because I want you to be safe. I love you Ally. I know I could be rough with you and be angry all the time. But you could talk to me. You remind of your mother all the time. I missed her..... I want to feel comfortable to talk to me. Ok?"

"Ok. I love you dad, I said hugging him. Now I culd talk to him and tell him how I feel.

"I love you to Ally. And to break this up your grounded for a week. No phone, laptop, no going out and all the thungs that teenagers do. You'll be helping Justin and I with the car business this week. We need an extra hand. You got it?" I wanted to say something but I know I deserve it. I nodded in agreement.

"Ok. See you downstairs." I smiled. I'm glad that went well. Except the grounded part.
