Our secret.

**Chapter 2**

I drown her pleading out by thinking of my consequences, My dad is in the booty strict so I have no choice but to sneak out! And if I get caught, well he's in the booty with a pistol.

"Fine" oh how I am going to regret this.

She screams and jumps up and down, "do my lips look kissable?" She puckers her shiny lips.

I shrug " I guess, but I have to go before I am late tink"

"I'll text you, I am not going to any of these damn stuck up teacher's classes."

I laugh and rush to my eight period class.

"How was school?" My dad gives me a smile as I enter the car.

"Well, it was normal, how was work?"

His face changes at the sound of my question and he lays his head on the steering wheel, "Stressful" he sighs.

"Pop what's going on?"

"They keep calling me in to talk to these people, I haven't got any rest for the past four days, I am exhausted"

"Quit"

"I can't" he puts his key in the ignition and turns it pulling off, "I need the money and I love writing"

"When is the next time they will call you? Do you know?"

I'm really concerned but I have a valid reason for it, my mother passed away two years ago from lung cancer, she fought but the doctors claim they couldn't do anything else, which is complete bullshit. I know they didn't want her in the hospital, her damn nurse was an fifty five year old racist white bitch. My mom and dad is really all I have! Well had. So now its just my dad and I and I will flip shit if I lose him so I'm cautious about his every move.

"I have to be in New York tomorrow, so I will be leaving at eight tonight."

"How long?"

"I believe four days, whats today?
Friday?"

"Yes"

He sighs again and pulls in the driveway, "Four days, Lici be good for me, no parties and please no boys over. And if there's an emergency I have a forty five behind the wall picture of your mom and I, just remove the nail"

"Okay dad." We exit the car and walk in the house, I go upstairs and walk in my bedroom flopping on my bed.

***
7:57p.m.

"Do you have my files in my suitcase!?" My dad shouts from across the room.

"Yes dad everything is in, You have your phone on you right?"

"Yeah" he answers and walk to me kissing me on my forehead and waving.

"Be safe!"

He nods and leave out of the house.

There is something I am suppose to do right now but I can't think of what it is.

my phone rings as soon as I turn on the TV.

"Hello?"

"Lici, the party!" Tink screams in the phone.

Oh shit.

"I didn't forget, in fact I am laying my outfit on the bed as we speak"

I did forget...

"Okay, I am on my way over, is your dad home?"

"No."

"Yay! Okay here I come, be ready"

I rush upstairs and grab the first thing I see in my closet which is an all black bandeau top, torn black leggings and leather biker jacket. Which is shit.

I stop in my tracks and start to randomly over think.

Why am I coming here? What if I get shot? Is this outfit cool? No it isn't! Should I wear makeup? Why get all dressed up over a party with no invitati-

"You lying bitch! You said you were ready" tink busts through the door.

"How the hell you get in here?"

"I'm your bestfriend, don't worry about it. What the fuck type of outfit is that?"

I shrug and look down at my bed where the outfit is laying.

She throws the clothes on the floor and raids my closet picking out one of my oldest outfit.

"Put this on."
