Mom picked me up today, and when we finally got home the house was empty
Meaning dad was still at the office."Well... what shall we have for dinner? I've bought some cakes home for dessert" mom explained as she unpacked a variety of goods from work.
"Um.... pizza?" I suggested, she nodded
I ran upstairs to get changed into something more comfortable, then I spent the next half an hour catching up on Netflix.
Until there was a knock at the door."Can you get it darling?" Mom shouted from the kitchen
"Yeah" I shouted back, I picked the money up from the side table and opened the door, only to be met with a boy who looked around my age."Kingsley?" He said, seemingly shocked to see me
"Yes?" I asked curious as to how he knows me
"Emmett? I'm in your history class" he introduced himself
"Oh yeah... Emmett" I said, trying to sound as though I knew him.He looked at me hesitantly, before handing me the pizzas
"Oh yeah" I fumbled, handing him the money while holding the pizzas
"Thanks... are you... going to the party Friday?" He asked."I'm not sure yet" I answered
I'm pretty sure Alex was going to drag me there whether I liked it or not anyway, but I didn't want this conversation leading where it normally did."Oh okay... well if you do I uh- I was wondering if you maybe... wanted to go with me?" He asked nervously
"Um..." I trailed off, trying to find a nice way to let the guy down."No. She doesn't" we both turned to see my father walking across the driveway, shutting the car door
He was in his suit, briefcase in hand and a stoic look on his face that seemed to unsettle the delivery guy even more than it did me."Hey dad..." I tried to distract him, but he barged past the guy and pushed me into the house
"Next time do your job then fuck off" he said calmly, shutting the door in his face."Dad!" I scolded him, following after him as he strolled into the kitchen
"What Princess?" He asked, sitting down at the head of the table."You shouldn't be so rude" I mumbled, sitting down with the pizzas
"And you shouldn't give them the time of day" he retorted simply
I sighed, smiling at mom as she sat down."So how was your first day at school darling?" Dad asked
I nodded slowly
"It was good" I answered, trying to find a good way to bring up the party
Should I even tell them?
I could just lie and tell them I'm staying with Alex. But then I'd have to call them to check in and they'd see the party across the street anyway.
