Dally's POV
"Dally get off of my daughter!" I heard Dave yell.
Caroline let go of me but I wrapped my around around her waist pulling her to my side. "Dad please-"
"No Caroline! I did what was the best for you." Said Dave. "All of you up there go inside!"
I looked back and saw the gang and Rose go inside.
"Dad you don't know what's best for me! Can't you see that Dally makes me happy?" Said Caroline.
"Caroline be serious, he-"
"Loves your daughter." I finished.
Chief stared at me in shock. "Dallas-"
"Chief I've been listening to you these past two months but now you're going to listen to me." I said. "I care about Caroline a lot and she is a great girl. She deserves everything and no I can't offer her everything but I'll try. Chief I love your daughter and it was a mistake leaving her two months ago, I shouldn't have listened to you. I don't care if you don't want us dating, I will never leave Caroline again."
"This stupid fairytale has to end Dallas! You don't love her and she doesn't love you! You two are just kids!" Said Dave.
"What about you and mom?" Asked Caroline. "You two dated in high school."
"We were different-"
"How so? Grandad believed that you couldn't offer mom anything but you proved him wrong." Said Caroline.
"You think Dally is going to prove me wrong? Dally doesn't change, he's been the same kid since he came here." Said Dave.
"How many times have I been arrested in the past three months?" I asked.
Dave thought about it.
"I'll save you some time, the answer is zero. I promised your daughter I would change and I have. I kept that promise and I promise you that I'll never let her go again. You will see me everyday on your doorstep whether you like it or not." I said.
Dave sighed. "Dallas you don't get it do you? You're holding her back. She could end up leaving Tulsa or travel what will you do?"
"Dad, we're talking about the future. We can't base everything we do now on the future, I am happy with Dally. I love him." Said Caroline.
"Get your sister, we're going home." Said Dave.
"Chief come on-"
"Don't give me that shit Dallas, I don't trust you and I never will." Said Chief.
"Caroline can you leave me and your dad alone for a minute?" I asked.
Caroline looked uneasy. "Fine."
Caroline went by the steps.
"Chief remember what you said what happened to me was a miracle?" I asked.
"Yes but I don't see where you are going with this."
"Do you also remember telling me this is God's way of giving me a second chance?" I asked.
Dave nodded.
"What if being with Caroline is my second chance?"
Dave scoffed. "Dally that is ridiculous-"
"I met Caroline after that day, she changed me for the better. She made me a better man, she is my second chance chief. For the past two months I was thinking about everything that happened. From Bob's death to when you told me to break it off with Caroline and I decided that she is my second chance. Chief I've stayed up nights thinking about her and how I made the biggest mistake of my life hell, I've cried over her. Chief I remembered that you believed in me that night where I almost died. You knew I wouldn't have pulled the trigger on you, even if it was loaded, why can't you believe in me now?" I said.
Chief sighed. "Dally this is my daughter, I want what's best for her-"
"God damn it Dave, I am what's best for her! You won't believe how many times I was there for her, sure we had our fights but at the end of it we always went back to each other. She didn't want me at first, she hated me Dave but after some time she fell for me and I fell for her. She's the best thing that's ever happened me and I'm the best thing that's ever happened to her." I finished.
"I've heard enough. This is childish Dallas." Said Dave seriously and turned his attention to Caroline. "Get Rose, we're leaving."
Caroline got up and walked towards me. "Dad no."
"Caroline get your sister and lets go. You can still make it to your prom." Said chief.
"I don't care about prom, I care about Dally." Said Caroline.
"Enough! This is ridiculous! You don't care for this criminal!" Said Dave. "Caroline lets go."
"Dave she's staying here." I said.
Dave glared at me. "No she's not."
"She's 18 isn't she? Why doesn't she make her own decision?" I asked. "Isn't that the law chief?"
"What do you know about the law hood?" Asked Dave.
I rolled my eyes. I'm trying not to let my temper get the best of me but Chief is being so fucking stupid.
"Dad I'm staying here." Said Caroline.
Chief stopped talking and thought for a few seconds.
"Okay Caroline, if you would rather stay here then stay here, you can stay here as much as you like." Said the Chief.
"Dad don't do this." Said Caroline.
"Isn't this what you want? To stay here with him." Said Chief.
"Come on Chief." I said.
Chief started to walk to his car.
"Think about what you're doing Caroline."said Chief as he got into the car.
Damn he overreacted.
Caroline's POV
I felt tears coming into my eyes. What just happened? Am I suppose to pick between my dad or Dally?
"Hey don't worry, he'll get over this." Said Dally.
I nodded, trying not to cry.
Dally stepped in front of me and cupped my face.
"Dally."
"Yes doll?"
"I can't leave my dad like this." I said.
Dally nodded. "Do you want me to walk you home?"
I shook my head. "Not yet, I haven't seen you in two months."
Dally smiled and leaned down. I put my hands on his chest. Dally kissed me, I've missed this much.
