For the love of my father

I wake up tangled in a blanket I didn't remember getting . I slowly walk into my bathroom and look back at my reflection . My eyes were swollen from crying over a guy who will never see me as anything but a "sensitive teenage girl." I climb in the shower and let the noise from the shower drown out my cry. As I get out of the shower and dry off I change into a motley dress and curl my hair and apply my make up.

I walk out of my room quietly hoping not to wake anyone up as I try to leave the house for some fresh air.As I reach the door my hopes are diminished as Andy walks out of his room . I freeze and my eyes rake over his body which was only covered by Batman boxers. He rubs the sleep from his eyes and looks up at me .

Smiling sleepily he says "G'morning"

"Uh... Morning ..." I reply hoping he doesn't notice my attempt to leave . though seeing him like that may change my mind.Again no such luck.

" where are you going?" he asked now fully awake."we were going to have a day on the town together as a family." he says pouting a little in thought.

"Umm I ...Uhhh.. was going to go get some fresh air..." I reply sheepishly.

"Why so early?" he asks and at this I laugh.

"Whats so funny? " he asks slightly laughing with me.

" Hahaha its just that.... it noon and Ive been up a few hours now.. haha" I say laughing as his eyes go big and he looks at the clock on the wall.

It takes us 10 minutes to finally stop laughing . Andy's laugh is contagious . Just as we stop Juliet who's wearing a pair of boxers and a sports bra comes out of Andy's and her bedroom making horrible images appear in my head. Juliet smiles hugely as she answer a bunch of "of courses" on the phone and hangs up.

"Hey Dragonfly " Andy says to Juliet causing her to hold a finger up to him telling him to wait .

"OMG!!! I just got an amazing gig at the house of blues in vegas tomorrow! There's so many things to do! I have to go to the studio and practice today and make a new set list and get a new outfit--" she starts rambling till Andy cuts her off.

" I thought we were going to have a family day today ? Cant that stuff wait ? " he says as a frown forms on his face that not 2 minutes ago was alight with laughter.

"Im sorry babe I have to do this its a huge opportunity and I haven't had much gigs lately we can do family day another time right Kait? Right " she asks me well kinda....

" Uh sure I -- " Andy cuts me off .

" Fine do what you have to but I promised Kait that we'd do this and we are going too." he tells her angrily . Then he looks at me " I'm going to get dressed and then we will leave and get some lunch ."

I nod my head in agreement and grab my new purse and phone waiting for him as he goes into his room to get dressed.Juliet comes over to me and hugs me tight.

"Have a good day with daddy" she tells me in a baby voice causing me to get mad.

" Im not a fucking two year old so don't treat me like one Juliet . You are not my mother and Andy isn't my "daddy" so quit it already . Don't you have somewhere to get ready for? " I say heatedly and walk out of the house slamming the door behind me . Ten minutes later after hearing shouting from inside Andy walks out of the house looking angry.When he sees me he smiles.

"Ready for a day on the town with me ?" he askes.

A smile appears on my lips and " Of course ."
