Here is a Christmas gift to all of you. Thank you all for reviewing.
Sophias POV
Daddy told me that mom and Ryan where arrested. I was a little bit sad because she is still my mom but I hated Ryan. He was so mean. I never really liked staying with my mom but when he came into the picture I hated going there life became unbearable while I was there but I couldn't tell my daddy.
Daddy makes me feel so safe and loved things I never got from my mom. It's been a week since they where arrested and daddy said that I won't be seeing her again. I'm not sure how I feel about it though.
Daddy has been cheering me up all week he can make me forget about it when he is with me. I have been having nightmares for the last few months and they have kind of stopped now since my mom was arrested. I didn't tell my dad about the nightmares though h only knows about the one nightmare.
This weekend daddy said he has a suprise for mei wonder what it is. At the moment I am in the living room with my daddy. I am snuggled up to him on the couch and we are watching Tangled. This is one of my favourite Disney movies. Mother gothel kind of reminds me of my own mom.
"Daddy did mother gothel ever love rapunzel or was she just using her for her hair." I ask my dad.
My dad looks at me stunned probably because I'm so young and shouldn't have even thought about that. " well sweet pea no I don't think she ever loved rapunzel." He says as he ruffles my curls.
"So She is is just like my mom and only used her for her hair." I ask him sadly.
"Sweet pea what makes you say that." Daddy says to me seriously.
"I heard mom and Ryan talking one night and she said the only reason she has me sometimes is so that she can get things from you."
"Sweet pea I know this is hard for you but you have so many people that love you. You have me, grandpa, grandma, Elliot and Mia. You even have Gail, Taylor and Sawyer. We would all do anything for you sweet pea I promise you that." My daddy says he sure does know how to make me feel better.
"Okay daddy I love you."
"I love you to sweet pea." He says as he kisses my forehead.
I couldn't have asked for a better daddy. Yes he can be very strict and can be really annoying about me not eating enough. There was one time I had to wait at the table until I ate all my dinner. I was there for a an hour .I was so mad but now I know why he does that and after the time spent at my moms house I really do appreciate it. But I won't lie sometimes I do forget that. At Least I know he loves me.
We watch the rest of the movie and then daddy says it is time for bed.
"Alright sweet pea shower and bed please come on let's head up the stairs." He says as he puts me down in the floor and starts walking me towards the door.
"Okay daddy but can you tell me where we are going this weekend." I ask in a sweet voice.
"Nice try sweet pea but that is a suprise."
"Come on daddy can you at least give me a hint."
"No Sophia come on it is time for bed." He says in a stern voice.
"Okay daddy you win."
"Alright sweet pea let's go then."
After I have my shower daddy dries my hair and then tells me a story. I find it so funny when he does the voices.
He kisses me goodnight and tucks me in. I make sure he leaves the door open a tiny bit I hate being in a room with the doors shut or locked by myself. It reminds me of being locked in the closet.
I drift of to sleep but I know that I will probably have a nightmare tonight.
Christians POV
It has been a week since Sarah and Ryan have been arrested. They both took a plea deal and received six months in prison. They couldn't make the drug dealing charges stick so they just charges them with possession. It sickens me how I this country child abusers only get a small prison sentence. I managed to get all Sarah's parental rights taken away so Sophia is officially just my child. Sarah was never a real mother if anything she was just a egg doner.
What Sophia said about mother gothel and Sarah being alike broke my heart. I don't give my girl enough credit she is extremly smart. I didn't know what to say to her.
I feel like this is affecting her more than she is letting on. I think a visit to doctor Flynn will do her good. But then again I don't want my daughter going to a shrink. But it might help her. Sawyer has been saying that she is a bit on edge when she is not with me.
To take her mind of recent events I have decided to take her to Disneyland this weekend. She is going to love it.
I can't sleep so I decide to go check on Sophia. She is tossing and turning in her sleep and also sleep talking.
"Mom mom please stop please I promise to be good and stop crying." Sophia sobs in her sleep. My poor baby girl this is affecting her more than I realised.
I gently wake her up.
"Sophia baby wake up sweet pea daddy is here."
"Daddy." She says as she opens her eyes.
"Your okay sweet pea I'm here don't worry. I ow t let antthing happen to you." I say to her gently.
I pick her up and put her onto my lap.
"Sophia do you have nightmares regularly." I ask her . She just looks at the floor.
"Sophia look at me I can tell that you have been having them from the way you looked at the floor and didn't answer how long has this been happening to you." I ask her.
She looks at me with tears in her eyes.
"I started getting them when mom met Ryan and they locked me in closet the first time."
I am deaply disturbed by this my little girl has been suffering with night terrors for months and I didn't know. My poor baby girl. My mind is made up she needs some help to help her deal with her nightmares and anxiety. I will call Dr Flynn I the morning.
" Sophia sweet pea how would you feel if I made an appoint with some one to help you deal with these emotions they may help your nightmares. I go to him once a week to talk with him about my problems." Especially in this last week I needed him to help him deal with what my little girl went through.
She just looks at me and nods her head.
"Ye daddy I would like that." Well thank god for that.
"Okay Sweet pea Thank you now let's try go back to sleep it's late."
"Daddy can I sleep in your bed tonight." She asks me sweetly but I can see that she is still a bit shaken from her nightmare.
"Of course you can sweet pea I was going to suggest that anyway."
I pick her up and and bring her into my room. She snuggles with me.
"I love you daddy."
"I love you to sweet pea goodnight."
And we drift of to sleep.
Merry Christmas to you all have and amazing day but please review thank you.
