When we came home from clubbing that night, Dad wasn't there. He turned off all the lights and did the dishes and locked every up when he left. I debated on texting him several times that night, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. Why is life always hard?

Ether way, I couldn't worry about that. I didn't have time to.

Three months past and the gang and I were finally getting ready to graduate. I've never been more excited. Especially because now, we are gearing up to release our Second Album! This album has 13 songs, and we've been putting it together for a while, and I'm ready the world is finally gonna get to hear it, and see us tour together again.

THREE MONTHS LATER

Lemonade Mouth gathered in the LM Auditorium with the rest of the grade, because everyone was recieving their caps and gowns for the Graduation Ceremony the next day. School was never easy, but it all paid off when each of them got what they needed.

Charlie, Mo, and Scott couldn't stop taking various pictures with their caps and gowns. Olivia smiled watching them.

"If a picture tells a thousand words, then how many words are equal to the amount of pictures you guys took?" Olivia asked jokingly.

Mo smirked as she looked up at Olivia. "Sue me Liv, we're excited."

"I know. Trust me, I am too." She smiled.

Just then, their old rival, Ray, walked up to them and sighed.

"Even though we haven't always been on the best of terms..." He started. "It's been an honor to have been your rival."

"Aww, graduation getting you in your bag huh?" Wen smirked at him.

"I'm in my bag for everyone else cause they won't get to experience me anymore." He smirked back.

Scott rolled his eyes. "Oh please."

"Poor them." Stella smirked.

One thing that is also nice about today is that my Grandma is finally coming back home. I feel like I haven't seen her in forever, but she really has been on that Cruise Ship for like forever, feels like 5 Years, but it's barely been a year. I don't know, things are weird.

Olivia sat in the living room with her Grandmother after welcoming her home before the rest if the band came over for her Welcome Back party tonight.

"So you'll never guess who... I realized I knew while you were gone." Olivia began as she gave Grandma a cup of tea.

"You're father." Grandma almost immediately said.

Olivia raised an eyebrow, "Uh... yeah. How did you-"

Grandma sat up as she began to cut of Olivia. "He called me the night you two got in your fright three months ago, I wanted to call and intervene, but I thought you guys would eventually work it out."

"That doesn't sound like a Grandma thing to do." Olivia said before she sighed.

Her mind still didn't know how to feel about her Dad, who over the course of the past three months tried several times to reach out to her. A thought had never been this difficult to process.

And she and the band performed at the Grammys.

"But sweetie, you have to remember that even though he should have told you from the beginning, he just was scared that you wouldn't want to forgive him." She explained, then paused. "But I think it is time you forgive him Olivia."

Olivia knew her Grandmother was right. She just hated how she had to be right threw months after the argument happened.

About an hour later, David got a knock on his apartment door. He was in the middle of watching So Random reruns as he sighed, hoping the knocking would go away. It didn't

"I'm coming." He said as he got up and walked to the door. He opened it to find Olivia outside the door with a game of Checkers in her hand. She just kinda stared at him until she remembered that she didn't say anything yet.

"I was in the neighborhood, and Grandma told me that you didn't live far from where I was... so I bought you a housewarming gift." Olivia explained as she showed off the game. "Ik it's nothing big, I would have gotten something bigger but... I though since we used to play it when I was younger-"

Olivia got cut off when her Dad pulled her into the biggest hug ether of them had been involved in a while. She immediately dropped the game on the floor and hugged him back. They both even began to tear up.

"I missed you too." David smiled through his tears.
