"Well this has got to be some record" I opened my eyes and saw my dad standing at my door in his uniform. I sat up scratching my hair feeling confused.

"2 lates in a row, you are really becoming the badass child I hoped you would be" 2 late's what is he on about.

"Late?" I squinted my eyes at my alarm clock and when my eyes adjusted I felt them burst out of their sockets.

"I AM LATE AGAIN DAD WHY DIDN'T YOU WAKE ME" I jumped out of my bed only to get caught in my duvet and so I ended up  face planting the floor and my nose made an awful crack sound.

I heard my dad burst out into laughter as I felt tears prick my eyes due to the crippling pain in my nose.

"This isn't funny dad" I tried to yell but the pain was excruciating so it came out as a moan.

"You're right princess it's not" I could hear him trying not to laugh but he failed miserably. He walked over to me and helped me get untangled before he pulled me up to my feet by grabbing my shoulders like I weighed nothing. I frowned at him and he gave me a kiss on my forehead.

"Awww Princess don't cry...go brush your teeth your breath smells like shit" He burst out laughing at me. I shoved him back in anger which didn't work since he barely moved.

"I hate you dad!"

"Love you too Saph"

Sometimes I feel like I am raising him instead of him raising me.

Dads.

I managed to get ready and get out of the door in 15mins. My dad was waiting for me in his car with a smug look on his face. I still wasn't talking to him for A. Not waking me up and B. for being mean when I fell.

I opened the car door and tried to dramatically slam the door shut only to have my bag get caught in the door. I struggled to get my bag out the door once I did I got in the car and looked away from him.

"Saph, you have got to stop making yourself look stupid. It's too much" My dad was laughing as I angrily put my bag in my lap. I pulled my belt and in anger I couldn't seem to put it in its little thing and this made my dad burst out laughing even more.

He took the belt out of my hand and clicked it in with a smug look on his face. I growled at him making him bite back a laugh.

"What do you want to listen to" I ignored him and looked out of the window. He treated me badly so now he was going to get the silent treatment.

"Fine, give me the silent treatment. Just treat your old man like shit, who knows if I'll come home safe from work." He became all dramatic and I rolled my eyes. He always pulls that card on me.

"Seriously dad, I am not talking to you and I'm trying to be annoyed, so please let me do it in peace without your sob story"

"Well you're clearly talking to me right now so.." I looked at him and glared.

"Saph you look constipated stop it" He tried to keep a straight face but ended up laughing.

"You know sometimes I feel like you're the teenager and not me"
