Chapter 4
I hadnt even got to the end of the letter before tears were coming down my face. I don't know why I was even crying, its not like I have never received any letters from my dad before. Actually I have being receiving one every 3 months for the last few years, since the time I moved into a childens Home. But this letter was different because this letter ripped away my hope, the hope I had that one day my parents would get back together and my life would go back to the way it used to be but like I said the letter took away that hope. In the letter he clearly states that he's gettng married and wants me to be there, but no way in hell was I going to go and watch his happy family when they were the reason why my happy family got ruined. I heard foot steps coming up the stairs and before I could hide the letter or the plane tickets Adrian stood in the door way leaning on the door frame. At first he was smiling but soon stopped when he noticed I had been crying.
"What's wrong?" He sounded genuinely concered
"Nothing," I wiped away my tears and folded the letter in half only for it to be natched out of my hands.
"Hey! Give that back!," I stood up on the bed and tried to grab the paper off him as he stood infront of me holding it high above his head and reading it. After a few failed attempts I launched my self at his back wrapping my legs around his waist from behind causing him loose his balance and before I knew it we were both on the floor.
"OW!" Adrian moaned as he moved so he was laying on his back and me flat on his chest where I could feel maybe his 6 or 8 pack. I stared into his crystal like blue eyes and all thoughts about the letter disappeared, I should have been angry at him but instead I felt happy and why neither of us were bothering to move from our position was a question I was really afraid of finding an answer to.
"I'm sorry," he said as he tried to get up. I rolled of off him and couldn't help but feel the sudden emptiness I felt because he no longer had his arms around me.
"What for?" I asked once I was standing on my feet.
"For your dad," he handed the letter back to me with a sympathetic look.
"Don't be, I gave up on him a long time ago,"
"So that means your not going to the wedding?"
"Nope," I replied popping the 'p'
"I think you should,"
"Well I don't care what you think," I snapped feeling bad as soon as the words were out because his face fell and a look of hurt took over it.
"Whatever," he shrugged his shoulders and walked past me and out of the room.
After I had showered and changed I went down stairs just as Jennifer came through the front door.
"Hey Jennifer," I greeted before going into the kitchen.
"Hey Amy, how was your first day in school?" She asked while following me into the kitchen.
"It was good, better than I had expected," the only good thing about it was that I saw Stacey and Chase again the rest was boing but I didn't voice that thought.
"That's great sweetheart, what do you fancy for dinner?"
"I ordered pizza," Adrian answered for me as he entered the kitchen not bothering to look at me.
"Oh good I wasn't in the mood of cooking, its been a long day," tell me about it I thought.
We all went into the the launch and watched t.v while waiting for the pizza.
"Amy, I was wondering if you got any mail today?" Jennifer asked a little nervously
"Yeah I got a letter why?" I said back sounding less confused than I felt, as to why she was asking about my mail.
"W-well you see I got a phone call today,"
"From?"
"Your father, he said-"
"I don't want to know what he has to say," I rudely interrupted her
"You don't understand sweetheart, I tried to say no but in the end he won," she looked at the floor infront of her
"Tried to say no to what?" Please don't be what I think it is.
"To you going to seeing him," I was seriously confused. One, why my farher was contacting my social worker/gardian and two, why would she be trying to say no to me going when I decide if I'm going or not.
"Good you said no, because I'm not going," I crossed my arms over my chest which earned me an annoyed look from Adrian, I returned the look but really in side I was asking myself, why was he so damn set on me going?
"But you don't have a Choice," she answered
"And how do I not?"
"Because you are 17 and not living on your own yet he as your father has the right to see you when he ever he pleases," I couldn't believe we were actually having this conversation.
"I'm not going," I repeated firmly
"Sweetheart its only for a few days, and you don't need to go alone," I kept my eyes on her as she continued
"I would love to go with you however I have work but Adrian on the other hand doesnt,"
"I have school," He said a little sharply
"Its only for a few days," his mother snapped at him.should I go? I asked myself. The only reason being the fact that Adrian was going to be there. For some strange reason the thought of him being there made the situation so much more bearable.
"Okay, I'll go," I said, my answer earned me two very surprised looks from both mother and son but I'm sure they weren't as surprise as I was.
