Chapter thirty one
Sawyer's POV,

~

'Hello, darling' Dad said, as I walked into the room with some flowers to brighten it up a little.

I was annoyed, annoyed about the way he acted around Nathan and I wasn't sure if I was good at hiding my annoyance.

'Hi' I managed to say, forcing the ends of my lips to curve, forming a smile.

'Something bothering you?'

I shook my head and lied. I lied. This, this whole thing was bothering me. I don't get why he's got all these assumptions about Nathan. As far as I know, Nathan's done nothing to him. Nothing. He doesn't need my Dad talking shit to his face and assuming that all Nathan wants from me is sex. No, that's where he's wrong. Nathan hasn't done anything, touched me anywhere, forced me into anything, nothing.

'Sawyer?' Dad asked, causing me to zone back.

'Uh, yeah?'

'Are you alright?' He asked, with slight confusion across his face.

'Why'd you say those things to him?'

'Huh?'

For some reason, his cluelessness annoyed me even more.

'Nathan. Why'd you say all that shit to him?' My voice got a little louder than I had expected.

'So you have been seeing him?' His eyes were fixed to mine and weren't the same as they were, a minute ago. The only thing I could think of when I saw that anger in his eyes was the day Nathan and I got back from Manchester, and how he yelled, so, much. 'Answer me!' He yelled.

'No, you answer me. Stop changing the fucking subject, dad' A sudden rage had filled through my whole body.

'Language, Sawyer!'

'Cut the crap, dad! Just fucking answer me. Why did you put all those words into his head?!'

'It's the truth, Sawyer. All I said was the truth and nothing but it.' His tone was so devious and I hated that.

I suddenly acknowledged the fact that he found out where I was, without me even saying anything.

'Wait, how'd you even know where I was?!' I asked, ignoring what he said about it being the truth.

'I have my ways' he snapped.

'Dad,' I glared, unintentionally. Or intentionally, at that point I had no idea what I felt towards him anymore. Ignorance, anger, annoyance, rage, I don't even know.

'I know people, Sawyer. Now can we move on from this?'

'You know people?!' My mind wondered.

He had people watch me. He had eyes on me. I was never alone, he hired people to watch me, to watch my every action, to make sure I was with anyone, with Nathan.

'You've got people watching me. You hired people! You don't want me with him, you don't allow me privacy, you're just sticking your face into everything!' I stormed off, disgusted by his actions.

How could he hire people to watch his own daughter? I'm not a kid anymore. He can't do this, it's sick.

'What are you doing here?' Nathan asked.

I had to see him, tell him what my dad had done. I needed him.
