you guys are insane!! 5,000+ reads. i love u.

I walk out of college, expecting to walk home but instead see my dad waving at me, "Dad?" I walk over to him.

"Hey kiddo" He smiles, "C'mon, I want you to meet some people" He opens the passenger door for me.

"Who?" I raise my eyebrows, "It's a surprise, c'mon get in" He sounds excited so I get in the car.

I know exactly who we're going to see and I'm not in the mood, today has been a long day at college. I haven't seen Issac either.

I'm confused with what we are, we have both established that we want to be together but are we? After our kiss - which I can't stop thinking about - last night he dropped me home and I haven't seen him since.

We've texted but I can't bring myself to ask him over text, I think it's better to do it in person but now that dad has picked me up I can't invite him round like I planned to.

I sigh, we pass trees after tress, "Where are we going?" I ask my dad, whose tapping his fingers along to the beat of the song playing on the radio.

"It's all a surprise Darc, it's not far away" He glances at me for a few seconds with a smile. I rest my head back closing my eyes.

I saw Henry today, Eric is still avoiding him which he's getting rather upset about. I would be as well, but unfortunately it's something to expect when fallen for a straight guy.

I saw Amelia as well, we've planned to go shopping which is something I never do. I can't remember the last time I went shopping, all the people rushing about stresses me.

I can hear dad hum the side of me which is annoying me. I feel bad for always being angry with him but I just can't help it.

We pull up outside a hotel and I start to become nervous. He didn't ask me if I wanted to do this, he can act as if it's a surprise but he knows that I know what he's doing if he'd have asked me, I could of prepared myself.

I get out the car slamming the door behind me, "Jesus Darc, break my door" He chuckles, I just give him a fake smile.

People greet us as we walk in smiling, I need to be getting a job soon but being around new people and doing new things scares me.

We stand in the elevator in silence, a million things are going through my mind.

He loves Adelaide more then you.

My breath catches in my throat but I close my eyes and try to clear my head like Louise told me too.

She'll be a better daughter then you ever will be.

I squeeze my eyes shut until the elevator bell rings out alerting us we're on our level, my eyes snap open and my dad steps out.

I stay still, unable to move. "Darcy c'mon" Dad frowns but I don't care, I'm scared. He gently takes my hand and guides me out. I pull back but after a few seconds pass I walk out.

I inhale and exhale to try calm myself down but it's not working, my brain is still racing. My dad opens the hotel room door and immediately I hear giggling.

I step inside, in my head this is more dramatic then in real life, inside I can hear my heart thumping and my heavy breathing. Everything just seems to go in slow motion.

"Daddy's back" Brown hair, blue eyes, rosy cheeks. She comes running in a beaming smile on her lips and her eyes full of innocence.

"Hey princess" He picks her up, kissing her forehead.

He loves her more.

I feel faint and my calming down method is not working but I stand and remain still, she's just a little kid I can't be angry at her. She's done nothing wrong. I'm angry at dad but I can't be angry at him for finding happiness but at the same time, I can't help it because I wasn't enough.

"Adelaide, this is your half sister, Darcy" He turns her around to face me, she smiles at me a dimple forming, "Hello" She waves.

"Hi" I try to smile and sound friendly but my body doesn't allow it. It's really hot in this room and I can feel my hair sticking to my head, "What does half sister mean?" She turns to dad with a confused expression.

She wears a little pink dress with poka-dots on, some little dolly shoes and her hair is in a little pony tail, "A half siblings is when you're only relatable via one partner, so Darcy doesn't have the same mommy as you, but has the same daddy, which is me" He smiles at her, his eyes are full of love.

You didn't make him happy like she does.

Every motion around me is muffled, It's like I'm not in the room but instead looking through like a dream.

"Darcy what are you doing?" I feel dads hand pull my arm away, "W-What?" I look around confused.

"Stop smacking your head" He places Adelaide on the floor. I feel embarrassed, this happens sometimes, sometimes I do things without realising because I'm too much in my head.

"Sorry I thought there was a fly" I nod trying a reassuring smile. He doesn't look convinced but he nods.

"Are you okay? You've gone a bit pale" He goes to stoke hair out my face but I flinch away.

"I'm fine" I whisper, "Everything okay?" A woman comes out a different room a friendly smile on her lips.

"Yes honey, everything is okay" He smiles at her, "Darcy this is my partner, Cindy" He takes her hand.

"It's lovely to finally meet you" She smiles down at me, "Bruce is forever talking about you" She giggles.

Talks about how much of a disappointment you are.

"H-Hi" My voice is shaky but I try and keep myself calm, "Are you okay sweet? You're very pale" She frowns, "Lets sit you down" She smiles and guides me over to the sofa that's placed in the hotel room.

Adelaide looks at me, curious. All her drawings are on the floor, she's quite good. I can't help but bubble up with anger.

She has my dad and I find out she's good at drawing, I shouldn't be mad but I always felt like I was the only artistic one out of all my family but not anymore.

She'll always do everything better then you.

She's just a little girl, she doesn't know what's going on but inside I'm burning, she has everything I've always wanted.

Dad sits next to me, "Darc are you okay? You really don't look well and you haven't said much" He goes to put his arm around me in comfort but I move away.

He looks at me confused.

He's only doing this because he has to, he doesn't want to.

I grip my head ready to scream but nothing will come out, "Darcy" My dad is more alert now, worried and panicking.

"N-No" I get up and run to the door, I can't stay in here any longer.

"Darcy, don't be like this" My dad runs after me.

I bet he wishes he never had you.

I scream when he takes my wrist, I need to get out this room, I can't breath. I feel like the walls are coming towards me taking away all my air.

I run out onto the corridor slamming the door behind me to stop my dad from chasing me but I hear it snap open with heavy footsteps.

I rush downstairs knowing he's behind me, my breathing becomes heavier and painful. I don't want to be here, I want to go home.

I dive into the female toilets and listen when I hear him stomp past, I sink down the wall relief washing over me, a tear spilling down my cheek.

I fumble with my phone tears blinding my vision and press the call button. I cross my finger, please pick up.

"Can you come pick me up?"
