Currently, we are in the drive thru. Stacey is still sleeping peacefully next to me. I feel like I need to protect her in that state, she's so vulnerable.

After getting the many bags of food, I had to wake Stacey up so she could hold them. Daisy would murder me if she found out I dropped her happy meal. That girl is scary when she's hungry.

"Sorry I didn't mean to fall asleep" she whispered shyly.

"It's ok cara mia. I'm glad you had some rest. We are about twenty minutes  from my house, should we take this time to tell me who you were running from?"

"It's just someone from my past, that's all. They are spontaneous, so I don't want to drag you or Daisy into this."

"Stacey, the last thing I want is for this person to bring danger into school. I can't have Daisy or you get hurt. I couldn't bare it."

After that, we sat in silence. Not an awkward silence, just a peaceful one. Swiftly, we pulled up the drive to the house. Hearing a soft gasp from beside me. To be fair, it is a mansion. It's is pure white with pillars at the front, and a four door garage on the side. I have four acres of land and a swimming pool for Daisy.

With the bags clutched in her hands, Stacey stepped out and took In her surroundings before looking at me with a confused look. I have her a simple shrug and started to walk towards the grand front door. I do have guards dotted around, but they are made sure not to be seen.

The door opened with one swift motion and Mateo popped out. His eyes darted between me and Stacey and gave me a knowing look. Dick.

"Mateo, this is Stacey. Stacey this is Mateo. Now if you don't mind Teo, I have to deliver my daughter her meal."

I pushed through him, while signing over to Stacey to walk in too. She gave Mateo a friendly smile, and walked in.

Doing the same thing she did a couple of minutes ago, she gasped. We have two spiralling staircases up to the second floor. Covered in red carpets and marble, I really did love my home.

Hearing a pitter patter from the other room, I knew Usain Bolt was coming. I braced myself for a hungry Daisy.

"WHERES MY HAPPY MEAL? oh w-wait it's t-there, thanks da- OMG"

She stood there looking her teacher straight in the eyes. I did NOT think this through.
