Imogen's POV
"WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN, IMOGEN?! YOU HAVEN'T CHECKED IN!" Natalie yelled from the kitchen.
I hanged my jacket on the coat rack and walked into the kitchen.
"Hello Natalie. What are you doing here? I was out. What's it to you?" I asked with a hint attitude as I walked over to the fridge to grab a drink.
"Don't give me that attitude, young lady. I'm your mother, I worry about you." Natalie then states a little upset
"You didn't answer my question, Natalie. What are you doing here? And you don't get to worry about me now, not after you left us like we meant nothing to you." I screamed, forgetting my father is probably resting.
"Your father called me a couple of months ago. He's sick and he wants us to make up." Natalie said in a soft voice.
"I know my father's sick, I'm not stupid. I'm taking care of him, so don't even bother worrying about us and I don't think you and I can ever fix us. So just leave. I have homework to do." I grabbed my drink and turned to leave the kitchen.
"Imogen, I'm sorry if I hurt you. I didn't mean to. I just I wasn't happy and I was at the start of my..." Natalie started to say before getting cut off.
"Don't. I was 4 when you left and now after 14 years, you finally want back in my life? Screw you." I yelled as I walked out, "And don't forget to lock up before you leave."
I went halfway up the steps till I saw my dad. "I'm sorry, dad. I didn't mean to wake you. Go back to sleep." I told him in a calm voice as I walked him back to his bed.
"You need to start communicating with your mother more, Princess." He said to me as he climbed back into bed and I tuck him in and kissed his forehead.
"I don't think I'm going to be able to trust her, dad. She walked out on us and never really looked back." I muttered as I turned off the light.
"We'll talk more about this tomorrow morning dad." I added and then left his room and head to mine to do my homework.
After finishing my homework, I went and got ready for bed. After about an hour or so of laying in the dark, I fell asleep. When I woke up the next morning and went downstairs, Natalie was still here.
What the hell is she still doing here? Did she spend the night or something? I could have sworn I heard the door open and close last night.
I entered the kitchen, while my hair was still damp from my shower.
"Good morning, dad. What's for breakfast?" I said, ignoring the fact that Natalie's still here.
"I am not sure what's for breakfast. Princess Fionz won't tell me." My father smiled.
"Fionz...? Where's Fionz?" I looked behind me and then I saw her. An instant smile came across my face as I walked over to her and planted a small kiss on her lips.
"Good Morning, Gorgeous! I hope you don't mind me stopping in. It's just I was lying in bed this morning and thought I haven't seen your Dad in a while. Also, I wanted to cook you pancakes." Fionz cutely giggled.
"I don't mind. I guess make sure you make enough for Natalie. I guess she fell asleep after our argument.
"Will do. So how many would you like, Princess Immy?" Fionz asked while bowing down to me.
"Three. I'm kinda hungry" My stomach started grumbling loudly.
Fiona made so many pancakes that I'm sure will have leftovers. I sat next to Fiona while my dad and Natalie sat across from us.
"Fiona is it? These smell delicious. Who taught you how to cook?" Natalie asked.
"It's Fiona, and I had to teach myself because I live on my own. I couldn't just keep eating takeout. So one day, I decided I was hungry for pancakes and I made them." Fionz said while looking over to Natalie.
"Oh, you live here on your own?" Natalie looked surprised.
"Well, my family moved around a lot and about 3 years ago, my family ended up here. I hated it at first and wanted to move back to the city. But when my family did move back, I ended up missing her. So I asked my parents to move back." Fionz explained.
"So why didn't your whole family come back?" Natalie then asked.
"My father is the ambassador for New York, so he couldn't leave and my mom was coming back and forth until she was put on house arrest." Fionz gave me a look that showed that she felt like she was being interrogated.
"Oh I see. Nathan, are you sure we should let..." Natalie started saying.
"Don't Natalie. Fiona is a good kid and she's a good friend to our daughter. A good friend that Princess can use right now," my father said with a stern look.
"For the record Natalie, Fiona isn't just my friend. She's my girlfriend and she's not going anywhere. If you're going to be rude to her, you can leave." I placed my hand on Fiona's.
After telling her that Fiona is my girlfriend, I just watched Natalie get up and leave.
"Fiona, I'm sorry if Natalie made you feel uncomfortable," My father said and then added "I am happy for you and my daughter. You make her very happy and that's all that matters to me."
"Thank you, Nathan. I really care for her and I promise I won't hurt her." Fiona said looking over at me with a smile as I reach over and grabbed her hand.
"Well that means a lot to me that you care for her that much. Now you two go and have a nice day at school."
"Okay," We both said as we get up from the table.
We left and walked toward school holding hands and smiling. It was almost like nothing in the world could tear us apart. It's the best feeling in the world and I wouldn't change it for anything.
"So I'm guessing that was your mother?" Fionz asked me as she twirled me around like we're dancing.
"Well she's the women who gave birth to me, but I wouldn't call her my mother. She left us when I was four and she never looked back." I told her as we start to come up toward the school.
"That sucks, baby. I'm sorry." Fionz pulled me into a hug.
"It's okay. I just don't know what to do. My father wants me to rekindle with her and I'm not sure
I can do it if she doesn't accept us." I said before pulling her into a kiss.
We got to school. It's the second day and Fiona still uses my locker because she doesn't want to see that jerk, Mike.
"So I'll see you for lunch, right?" I asked as I closed the locker door.
"Of course you will, my love." Fionz answered and then kissed me.
After that, she turned and walked off toward her class. I was captivated by her walking away, that all of a sudden the bell rang.
I ran to my class. I can't believe I'm late. I walked in and sat in my seat.
"Miss Moreno, you're late." Mrs. McClay turned around to look at me.
"I know. I'm sorry, I was in the bathroom." I apologized.
"Just try not to be late tomorrow." Mrs. McClay then continued writing on the blackboard.
I wrote down my notes and kept an eye on the clock, watching the time. When the bell went off, I was the first out of the classroom.
"Hey Imogen, what's up?" Adam asked as I practically ran past him.
I didn't even answer him and I just continued to run towards my locker. I remember why Fionz came and came over to cook me breakfast.
"You..." I yelled as I ran toward Fionz.
"Umm Immy, are you okay?" Fionz asked as I jumped into her arms.
"Happy One Month!" I cheered before kissing her.
"Happy One Month!" She said back with a smile.
"I was wondering why you came to make me breakfast, and I figured it out during first period."
"Well, I wanted it to be a special day, so I planned this special date for us tonight and your dad agreed to it." Fionz said before shutting our locker.
"Well, that seems great I guess. I'll see you next period." I told her before heading to science class.
In class, we were put in groups of four to work on this boring worksheet. I completely zoned out because I don't remember what it was about.
I saw Adam in my group and thought I should apologize for earlier.
"Hey Adam, sorry I didn't say hello earlier. I wanted to get to Fionz before she left my locker." I whispered, so I won't get in trouble again today.
"It's cool. So how are you two doing?" Adam asked as he leaned in to whisper back.
"We're great actually. Today is our one month!" I said happily.
"Awesome. I wish I could find someone." Adam sighed, feeling a little bummed.
"I'm sure you'll find someone soon, Adam." I replied reassuringly.
Then the bell went off and I headed to history, one of my favorite classes. I walked in and saw that jerk siting in my seat, annoying Fionz.
"Excuse me, you're in my seat." I snapped as I walk toward it.
"Get lost loser." Mike scowled.
"Leave me alone, Mike. I'm not interested in you and go away." Fiona was pissed.
"Don't be like that, babe." Mike went to put his hand on Fiona's face.
"Do not touch me." Fiona yelled as she smacked Mike across the face. "And stop harassing me, you sleezbag."
I walked over and sat down after he got up and left.
"I am really starting to hate that kid" I gave him a death glare.
"Me too." Fiona said while grabbing my hand.
"So I was thinking maybe my dad will let me sleep over." I decided to change the subject.
"I already asked and he said you can." Fiona says with a smile before kissing me softly.
Then the teacher came in and started to teach us. At this point, all I was thinking about is that I'm sleeping over my girlfriend's house tonight. What are we going to do? Great…now I'm daydreaming about having sex with her. Oh crap, am I blushing?
"Immy, are you alright?" Fionz whispers into my ear. I can feel her warm breath against my cheek.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I just got distracted." I say shyly.
"You sure?" Fionz looked concerned.
"Yeah." I said while clearing my throat.
She went back to taking her notes and I went back to thinking about what was going to happen tonight. Then the bell went off.
I couldn't help myself. When I stood up, I grabbed Fionz and pulled her into a passionate kiss.
When we pulled away she just stared at me.
I lean in toward her ear and whispered in a husky voice, "I'll see you later." Then I walked away.
At lunch, I had band practice and Fionz came with Marasol to watch us practice. When practice was over, I walked up to Fionz.
"You ready for class, Fionz?" I say jokingly smacking her arm.
"Sure. Let's go." Fiona says laughing as she links her arm through mine.
"I have a better idea" I say with a mysterious smile.
"Oh?" Fionz tilted her head to the side.
"Let's skip the rest of the day." I smirked.
"I don't know, Immy. I think we should just go to class." Fiona says shocked at Imogen's thought.
I just sighed and followed her to our class and sat in my seat. When class ended, I went to my next class. After that class, I went to my locker to get ready to go home.
I waited for Fionz and when she got here, I just smiled. She grabbed her stuff and then we headed for the door. As we walked out, we went to my house to get a change of clothes for me to change into tomorrow for school. When we got there, I saw Natalie's car.
"Great…what the hell does she want?" I said with a big huff.
"Do you want me to wait outside? Since your mother doesn't like me." Fionz asked shyly.
"No, come in with me. It'll give me a reason to get in and out within seconds."
When we entered, my dad and Natalie were talking in the living room.
"Hey dad, I just came to get a change of clothes. Then I'll be gone." I said while quickly pulling Fionz toward my bedroom.
We went up and got me a change of clothes and then went back to the door to leave. While leaving, my dad wished us a happy anniversary and then we left.
