Hiya peoplez...
I had this idea on my mind today, and just had to write about it.
This is a sad story.
The first chapter is of Linsay Lohan's song Confessions Of A Broken Heart, and the second chapter is the Casting Crown's American Dream.
This first chapter explains what Sam is feeling, and then the second chapter talks about what her dad is feeling.
This story is only two chapters.
I found out that Sam's dad's name is Thurston since I watched Control Freaks again today.
I came up with this story idea, because yesterday I found out that my grandpa had died. My grandpa was my dad's father.
Last night I couldn't sleep and my dad and I went downstairs and we made some food and we ate and talked.
I love my dad, and writing this story made me realize how much I love him.
Enjoy peoplez...

The Confessions Of An American Dream
Chapter One: The Confessions Of
"Where'd ya go? I miss you so, seems like it's been forever since you've been gone."
Fort Minor, Where'd You Go

She looked out of the window from the couch.
She was waiting…waiting for someone.
I wait, for the postman
To bring me a letter
And I wait, for the good Lord
To make me feel better
She heard her mother vacuuming from the hallway.
Her mother asked her to try on another dress and she groaned.
She watched her grandmother scooter around.
"Sammy, you don't wanna be late for church now, do you?" Her grandmother asked her.
Sam sighed. Her family had been going to church ever since their grandmother took them their for the first time.
"Grandma please don't call me Sammy. Only one person is allowed to call me that."
She looked back out the window and her grandmother sighed.
And I carry the weight of the world on my shoulders
Family in Christ that only grows older
"Sam," Her grandmother said slowly, "He's on a business trip for two months. He'll be back in due time."
She had a hard time keeping the tears from forming.
Why'd ya have to go?
Why'd ya have to go?
Why'd ya have to go!
Daughter to father, daughter to father
This happened most often.
He would leave to go on his business trip, and when he would return he would be to busy to talk with her, and then sooner or later he would leave again.
Her grandmother scooted away, and her mother left the room.
She was alone.
She missed him.
She wondered if he missed her.
I am broken
But I am hoping
Daughter to father, daughter to father
She started to sob uncontrollably.
Did he really miss her?
I am crying
A part of me's dieing
And these are
These are
The confessions
Of a broken heart
She slowly walked up to his room.
He didn't sleep in the same room as her mom anymore, since he would go to bed early and her getting into the bed woke him up so he couldn't go back to sleep.
In those days, when he wasn't so obsessed with work, he would check up on her in her room.
And if she happened to be up doing something, they would make their way through their maze of a house to the kitchen.
He would be in a big comfy sweater, and he always brought a spare sweater for her to wear if she ever got cold.
And I wear all your old cloths
The Apollo sweater
He would make them some peanut butter sandwiches, pour them some milk, and she would let him try her newest Ultra Recyclo Vegetarian foods.
Most of the ones he tried he liked.
He supported her Vegetarian ways, and she was so happy that he did.
I dream, of another you
One who would never
Never
Leave me alone
To pick up the pieces
After the Freakshow incident she tried to go to bed early, in case her dad would ask her about Danny, and find out that she had a crush on him.
One night she had to stay up to do a report for school and her dad saw her.
"My little Sammy, why have you been avoiding me?" He asked her from the doorway.
She shifted nervously in the chair by her desk.
"It's because of that Fenton kid isn't it?"
"How did you guess?"
Her father crossed his arms, leaned back against the doorway, and sighed.
"Well, I can tell when my daughter doesn't want to talk about things with me. It's pretty obvious too. I mean, we just yelled at you not to hang out with him. I thought that you were mad at me."
"Dad, you understand me more than anyone that I know, how could I be mad at you?"
"For not understanding like I usually do. I didn't give Danny a chance. I didn't really get to know him."
She stood up from her desk and walked over to her father.
"Sam, honey, I just want you to know that you can tell me anything at all, and I won't think any less of you."
"You wanna know something about Danny?"
"What, you have a crush on him?"
"You really are a good guesser dad."
"Well, his parents are a bundle of joy I can sure guess that."
She laughed as she wrapped her arms around her father and pulled him into a tight hug.
Daddy to hold me
That's what I needed
She opened the door to his room, and walked over to the dresser by his bed.
A framed picture sat by his lamp.
It was a picture that she had drawn in pre-school.
"Draw a picture of you and someone who is important to you." She remembered her teacher say.
She had known Tucker and Danny back then.
They weren't best friends like they were now, but they did know each other.
She remembered that Tucker tried to be funny so he drew a picture of the new CD player that he had bought.
She had had no idea what a CD player was, so she watched Danny, who was busy painting a picture of his mom.
She remembered drawing a picture of her dad.
She was so happy.
She wanted him to love it, which she knew that he would.
She walked over to the picture and picked it up.
On the side were the words that she wrote: Me and Thursty
She laughed as tears formed in her eyes.
Thursty was the nickname that she had given her dad as a kid, since his real name was Thurston and she couldn't quite say it yet.
"I miss you Thursty," She said out loud before she placed the picture back onto the dresser.
So why'd you have to go?
Why'd you have to go?
Why'd you have to go!
Daughter to father, daughter to father
She walked back towards the door, trying to hold herself together, when she saw a note on the floor.
I don't know you
But I still want to
She read through it quickly, and tears poured down her face.
Daughter to father, daughter to father
"No, don't tell me that you accepted a business trip to Europe for six months," She sobbed out loud.
Why? Why would you do this?
Do you want to leave me?
Tell me the truth
Did you ever love me?
Cause these are
These are
The confessions
Of A Broken Heart
Of A Broken Heart
She put the note down, and ran into her room.
She slammed the door shut.
It wasn't fair.
It just wasn't fair.
She screamed into her pillow.
I…love you
I…love you
I…love you
I…
I LOVE YOU
Daughter to father, daughter to father
She cried into her pillow.
I don't know you
But I still want to
She stopped crying, and walked downstairs.
Daughter to father, daughter to father
Daughter to father, daughter to father
She sat down on the couch, and started to cry again.
Did he really want to leave them?
Was work more important to him than her?
TELL ME THE TRUTH
DID YOU EVER LOVE ME!
DID YOU EVER LOVE ME!
DID YOU EVER LOVE ME!
These are…
The confessions
Of a broken heart
She couldn't stop shaking and took in deep breaths.
After she was calmed down, she wondered when the postman would come.
He had sent her a letter, and hopefully all of her questions would be answered.
Oooohhh
Yeah
She stared out the window, wondering if it would ever come…
And I wait, for the postman…
To bring me a letter...
