the one that bites

I wake up and look around. I'm in my bed and Andy lays at the foot of it. I slightly nudge him. He slowly wakes up and rubs his eyes. He smiles at me and gets up. He walks over and pulls off a giant white thing off my neck. Blood stains it in the form of a bite mark. He looks me in eyes and his eyes are yellow. "Amelia you will forget this ever happened. You were bit by a rabid animal if anyone asks." I close my eyes wanting to remember and then I fall asleep.

I wake up in my bed. I look around. I thought I was going to See Dylan. I must have fallen asleep before I even made it out the window. I get up and look in the mirror. God I hate that ugly scar on my neck. Stupid rabid animal. I run my fingers over it and sigh. Andy walks in with a smile. "Good morning Amelia." I smile back, forgetting about the scar. "Good morning Daddy." He grabs my hand and leads me down the stairs.

He he hands me a plate of waffles and walks me over to a chair. I sit and then look up. Juliet sits across from me. I try to get up by cuff link clutch my wrists and ankles. I glare at Andy. "Well Amelia I knew you would run so…I made some adjustments to your chair.

The guys come in and sit in their seats as if this is normal for them. "Quick question. How the hell am I suppose to eat?!" I say harshly. Andy glares and hits a button. All my cuffs release me. "Go eat in your room and don't come out till I say you can." I stand up quickly and grab my plate. "Whatever Andy." The chair falls over and I walk quickly up the stairs to my room. I lock the door and turn.

Andy stands right in front of me. How did he do that? I gulp. He takes my plate and sets it down on the table. "You will treat this house with respect and everyone in it. Do you understand?" I suck on my teeth. "I don't have to listen to you. Just because you adopted me doesn't make you my dad. So stop treating me like a child and start treating me like an adult." He glares and walks past me. "I'll start treating you like an adult when you stop acting like a child." And with that he slams the door and I flinch.

I grab my plate and sit on my bed I push the food aside. I don't feel like eating right now. I slowly get up and walk out of my room quietly. I walk down the stairs and to Andy's room. I hear a deep sigh and I knock on the door. He opens it and glares. "Did I say you could come out yet?" I shake my head. He doesn't say anything else. I wrap my arms tightly around his torso, sobbing into his chest. He goes rigid for a second. He wraps his arms around me and takes me further into his room. He sits and sits me down on his lap. I continue to cry and he strokes my hair. "Sh. Stop crying. Everything is okay."

I look up at him and wipe away some tears but they keep flowing. "But you're still mad at me." I say crying harder. My shoulders start shaking uncontrollably. He grips my shoulders tightly trying to make me stop. "Amelia darling it's okay. Everyone has their bad days. I forgive you." I nod and I wipe away my tears. He hands me a tissue and I blow my nose. I stop crying and smile at him. He smiles back and I get up. I throw away the tissue and wash my hands. He smiles and let's me sit in his lap for a while longer.
