Daddy Andy

A slam against my desk made me jolt upright and stare at my very unhappy Science teacher. That's funny, I dont recall waking up for school, dressing or walking to said school, or even the first couple of hours in school. Here it was nearly time the my school day was over and I can honestly say I didnt want to go home. I found out that the reason my mother came home was because she was near home and wanted to stop by. She would be gone by time I would get home from school. Whenever that was going to be. I feared opening my front door now. No, let me rephrase that. I was repulsed by it. I knew deep down I didnt have any real right to feel this way. It was just jealousy. I came to when my teacher asked if I had my work to turn in. I couldnt control the laugh that fell from my lips. She was taken aback. I've never really ventured to being the goof in school let alone the rude teen. I mean come on, I missed a day and you think i'm going to have this work done without catching up? My laughter just escalated. "Stop Lyrik! There's nothing funny here." She stared down at me. "Oh cont rare, your mindset that i'd be on top of this,' I motioned to the stack of books and papers on my desk from the prior classes and the one I was currently in, 'I might need some time, to get right on that. You can go back to teaching now, I'm up. No longer need your assistance. Thank you." I smiled up to her, leaned back and stared blankly at the chalk board.

I was forced to leave my desk and join the principal in his office. To be quite blunt I didnt care to show up there either. I placed all my things in my locker and decided to leave early. No doubt my father would hear of this. I didnt have anything to prepare for that either. I felt like a drone, something switched off in me. I was lying to everyone including myself now. I didnt know if I should just leave the pull to my father alone and just see where Leon and I would end up. I didnt even care if Vyktor was still in the picture. Everything was just, everywhere. I smiled at realizing I had training today. I would own that shit today. I was angry. I was torn. I was gone. Training was the only thing I did for myself. Walking aimlessly through town I found a group of kids my age, I confidently asked for a smoke. I looked the part with my current attire. Wow, I really didnt pay much attention this morning. I reached in my pocket for a buck, I only had a ten. "What else you got?" Why was I asking? The high, bad looking guy handed me a couple of smokes free and a little baggy of pills. "Have a fun time sweetie." Winking at me as he turned back to his group.I shouldve asked what the pills were. I didnt. I looked at them skeptically but still proceded in taking one.

I was laying in a patch of grass in the middle of nowhere I felt like Alice in wonderland. I was talking to flowers. Blowing smoke from my lips into alphabets(in my mind at least). There was no white rabbit though. Instead there was a smoky figure walking up to me. "What are you doing princess?" I jumped up and dumped into Leons arms. "Living, why do you have a cut above your eye?" I poked it while asking and he flinched. "Whats wrong with you?" Looking me over. "Playing the part darling. Is it working?" I batted my eyelashes and started giggling. He was still not convinced. His silent stare eating at me. "What are you doing, you werent in class today?" Following a butterfly with my eyes bending away from him. I could only see it apparently. He dropped me and dragged me to his car. I was mesmerized by dashboard lighting up that I didnt see him just staring at me. "What did you take?" Stern. "I dont know." Happy. "How long ago?" Stern again. "I dont know." Gigging. He took my hands suddenly and made me face him. I couldnt keep a straight face. His eyes darted over my features like an owl. "Why did you?" His voice turned soft. "If you even say 'I dont know' again I'm going to scream." Entwining our fingers, "I guess I cant tell you then." I was giggling still. He let go of my hands and slumpted in his seat running a hand over his face.

He drove around as my high dissipated. I went to reach in my pocket for another one when my eyes landed on the clock. "Shit! Can you drop me off at training?" As if just now remembering I didnt have anything on me. No phone. No books. No keys. No change of clothes. "Yea, sure, wheres it at?" "Over off Sunset." It was awkward, silent. I didnt know what to say about my actions or to him. He came to a stop just as Vyktor was walking in. His face was confused. I knew what he was thinking. I rescued you from him and now youre hanging around him. Yea i'm on a roll with nothing making sense today. A mumbled 'thank you' left my lips as I went to leave the car. His hand grabbed mine and pulled me to him. I was silently pleading 'dont'. "Find the book princess, It'll help you right now." He whispered against my cheek and then kissed me lightly on the same cheek. I tripped out of the car and over to the door as I was trying to make sense of his cryptic sentence. I wasnt paying attention to anything but my feet as I bumped into Vyktor. His broad chest rising and falling with his breaths. His hands in his pockets. I inwardly shivered. "I uh, forgot my clothes. I didnt go home. But I'm here.' I was rambling on and on. His hand covered mine. "I guess your workout clothes will be your underwear." Stern voice. I gulped. My eyes averted to his package. His chuckle rippled down his body. "I'm going to tear you apart Lyrik. Now get ready for the best or worst workout of your life." I sprinted to the changing room.

I was sweaty. I was sore. I hated how out of shape I was for missing a mere couple of workouts. I was laying of the floor with Vyk at my feet massaging my sore calves. My head was bent back moaning at the tightness being rubbed away. "I've missed that noise." He hissed across my skin. I heard the door open then hard footsteps coming towards me. "What is the meaning of this?! You're her trainer. You dont get to see her in just her underwear! Lyrik get your clothes. Now! Is this what I'm paying for?!" My father was yelling at us as I shrunk away to do as I was told. I came back out with my father fuming at the door. Vyk no where in sight. I went to open my mouth to ask when his face told me not to. I just hid behind my hair and walked out to his car.

My knees were against my chest as the drive home was silent but tense. I went to get out when he locked the door on me. 'Oh, dear. I'm in trouble' I thought. I closed my eyes waiting for the explosion. When nothing came I opened one eye. He was staring at the steering wheel. "You arent to see him as a trainer anymore. I'll find another one if needed but I'm not for you going anymore." I went to argue when he held his hand up. I was fighting tears. I just unlocked my door and ran to the house. I didnt even care what his mouth was saying as I slammed the door behind me. He caught me mid scream when he burst through my bedroom door. "Get out." I pointed at the door. "Oh no you dont. With everything you've done today you have no right to stand there and tell me, Your Father! To get out!" He was standing stone cold in front of me now. "I dont want you in here!" I shoved him. "What is with you today? Rude to your teacher, skipping class, god only knows what before training. Oh and that whole situation! You've never acted like this before. And not your arguing with me. Like this." He motioned to our current stance. I blew air through my lips. I went looking through my pockets. Turned and popped one in my mouth before he could snap me back to him.

My face was wet, wait, i'm crying? "How am I supposed to deal with you and not knowing who you're with or what you're doing when your phone is here?" He pulled my phone out of his jacket. I went to reach for it. He held it over my head. "Do I need to start disciplining you? What do I need to do now?" It's always been about him. Glad i'm noticing this now. "You?! I dont care what you do. Obviously, you dont care to hid what you do, from me. So i'm not either!" I was thrashing against him to get away. Then the high was coming back. I started laughing. His face turned worried. Then upset. "There will never be an us. Dont you see it Daddy? You showed me yesterday. Theres no point. Anymore." I was mumbling. I guess I caught him off guard cause his hands fell from my body and he slowly walked backwards. "That's what this is about? What you saw. Baby, I have to pretend just as much as you do. Dont you see that? I was angry. I hate that you saw it." His eyes connected with mine. My pupils dilated. "Then take me. Take me now daddy. Show me." He grabbed my arm and walked me out of my room. It's hard to keep your footing high when someones dragging you. Why were we going to his study? "I'll show you baby. What I've been hiding."
