#Chapter25

We laid there for what seemed like forever. Just in silence, listening to each other's breathing.

We sat up as we heard the front door slam and footsteps stomping up the stairs.

/"Cecelia what are you doing home so early?/" There was a deep shout from the hallway. Lia nuzzled herself deeper into my arms as the door swung open revealing her father.

Lia was a carbon copy of her father, she adopted the same jet black hair and grey eyes that her father had, they even had the similar facial structure.

Except for the drunken look in his eyes.

/"I didn't know you were bringing a guest over, shit./" He cursed under his breath.

He turned around and walked out of her room.

I felt her tears soaking through my shirt as she gripped onto my arm with fear.

We heard a door slam at the end of the hallway and Lia sighed with relief.
