Chapter Three

Tayler Pov

The movie was finishing up I looked down noticing that Sofie fell asleep, I smiled seeing that she is comfortable around me, I moved my shoulder trying to gently wake up Kelianne, she woke up and hummed, "Hey love, go to bed I am going to bring Sofie to bed" I spoke softly, Kelianne looked at Sofie and smiled and she lazily went to the elevators to our room, I told Nate to lock up the house. I lifted Sofie in my arms and I waited on the elevator, Sofie then cuddled in my chest and it made my heart flutter, the elevator doors opened and I pressed the top floor where Sofie room is. Once I reached I walked down the hall. I opened Sofie's door, and tucked her in bed, I looked at her, smiled and I kissed her forehead

"I love you Sofie, I will always be here for you" I spoke smiling, I walked towards her door when I heard her soft voice speak, "I love you too dad" I turned to her and smiled, she gave me a smile as well, I blew her a kiss and turned off the lights. I smiled and went to Kelianne's and I bedroom where she was fast asleep. I jumped in bed and fell asleep

One Year Later

Sofie Pov

I am now fourteen years old, Kelianne, Nate and dad threw me a birthday party for me which I was excited for, I haven't made friends which I am fine with, I have Uncle Nate and my parents which is all I need, I called Tayler dad and he always smiled at, I am warming up into calling Kelianne mom, I have been doing online school for this year Dad says I have to go to an Academy when I am fourteen, which I am honestly scared of.

We spend a lot of family time together, Uncle Nate has been teaching me how to dance and so is Dad. Kelianne and I has been doing gymnastics videos which she posts on her youtube account. Kelianne is an competitive gymnast and she is a social media star. For my birthday Kelianne has bought me some contortion stuff in which I teach my self more tricks, Uncle Nate bought me throwing knives, bow and arrow and a flamethrower for some odd reason and I use them with my feet which is honestly fun and easy. Dad teaches me how to ride a motorcycle which was scary at first but became easy with instructions and practicing.

I am in my room now, I just finished taking a shower, I wore tank top and leggings, I was scrolling through my instagram in which everyone taught me how to use social media and how to operate my phone. "Sofie family meeting" dad texted me, I smiled and rushed to the elevator and went downstairs and I saw everyone there. I sat beside Uncle Nate.

"Ok so its August now and September is school, I know your scared to go, but you have to, you can make friends and if anything is wrong you can call us" Uncle Nate started 

"Aren't I coming home after?" I asked confused, I know that I have to go to school early then come home afterwards, Kelianne cleared her throat and looked at me with dead eyes, "Well with the Academy, you have to sleep there, and when the school term is over you are sent home or when there is an holiday you are sent home, but you are practically living at the school" she said playing with her nails, "Why- I want to see you guys more" the words leave my mouth as I was trying to process everything.

"We know Sofie but you will have your phone you can call us after classes, but you will make friends and venture out more-" Uncle Nate spoke trying to reassure me but I started to cry I want to make friends don't get me wrong but I want to see my family more, I have grown attached to them, Nate hugged me and I cried in his chest, I felt a small hand on my shoulder and I knew its Kelianne 

"Sweetie don't worry you will be fine, you will make friends, you will have fun in classes, and you can call us after classes, we will always be available when you call us" she spoke softly, I pull away from the hug and ran to my room and cried in my bed, I didn't want to leave. I heard my door opened and when I looked it was dad, he had tears in his eyes

"Hey pumpkin" he spoke softly not meeting my eyes, which made me cry more, "Hey Dad" I replied, "Look I know you don't want to go and I don't want to send you, I will miss you too much, but you have to attend the school" he said sniffling, "W-Why do I have to go dad" I sobbed, he immediately looked at me, his face soften with fresh tears running down his tear stained cheeks, he walked closer to me, looked deeply in my eyes, and held my hands

"Sofie look, I know this is tuff- I-I-I, I myself don't want to let you go yet, you are my everything and I am scared that something bad is going to happen to you and I am not going to be there to protect you. I don't want to be away from my little sapphire, I want to be with you every step you take. But I have to let you go, you need to make friends and increase your education and if that means that I- that I- that I have to be separated away from you- then ok" dad cried trying to hold himself together, I threw my hands around his neck and cried into his shoulder he quickly responded and hugged me as well, we both cried into each others arms not wanting to let each other go.

"Sofie I love you with all my heart you are the world to me, I don't want you to leave me but the school will help you, we can video chat, you can see us on holidays, summer time, and christmas time, I love you Sof and I will be there for you even if I am not there physically." Dad spoke with me still in his arms, I tighten my grip around him, "I love you too dad" I spoke softly. 

The doors of my room quietly opened, both dad and I turned our heads and we were greeted with Uncle Nate who eyes were puffy, "Got room for one more hugger?" he asked, I nodded both dad and I made room for uncle Nate, we all just laid on my bed, with Dad's arm wrapping around my shoulder, my head on his chest and Uncle Nate's head on my lap.

"I love you guys" I spoke as tears streamed from my eyes, "We love you too" they both said at the same time.
