Don't Tell Me
Chapter 5: Questions
"Stephanie McMahon, I thought that we taught you better than this. You are a disgrace to the family name." Vince berates his daughter, making her feel worse than she already was. She was so terrifyingly embarrassed that Hunter had to watch her get treated like a little girl. And he didn't just have to see her for 5 seconds and then rush out the door, her dad was making him stay at the house so that they could talk later. Talk about embarrassing, this topped the cake.
"Dad, we didn't even do anything, we were just discussing some things."
"Like what?"
"Like none of your business."
"Get up to your room right now and I don't want your ass down here until you change that damn attitude." He points to the stairs leading to the second floor where her bedroom was located. She gave Hunter one long and lingering look before reluctantly and forcefully dragging herself to her room. Maybe she would call Eugene, he always made her feel better. That's it, she would call Eugene.
"How long have you been dating my daughter?" Mr. McMahon asks the blonde sitting across from him on the sofa.
"Well, last Saturday was our 8 month anniversary. And we broke up that Sunday, so like 8 months and 13 hours. Or something like that, yeah something like that. But we did have a few breakups here and there so probably somewhere like 7 months or something, I'm really not quite sure, Steph keeps track of all the dates and shit...." Hunter knew that he was babbling, but he just couldn't stop, words kept pouring out of his mouth like water from a faucet. That is until Vince shushed him.
"Hunter...that is your name right?" Hunter nodded and Vince proceeded, "I don't want you to talk anymore. Your voice is agitating. I'll ask the questions, you just nod your head. Are we clear." Hunter nodded yes and Vince went on with his questioning for upwards of an hour. Then he asked the question that Hunter had been dreading for the entire time he was being interrogated by Vince, "What was the reason for your most recent break up?"
"... Yeah Eugene, I promise that I will call you tomorrow... I love you too, night hon." She hung up the phone feeling much happier. He had just let her vent all her problems to him without one word. He was probably the world's best, best friend. Everyone should be happy to know him. But they weren't. Sometimes she just wanted to ram people's heads into the walls for being so mean to Eugene. Only she was allowed to call him a coo coo head, and he knew that she was joking when she said it. Other people said it to be mean. And that just wasn't cool, at least by her standards it wasn't. But then from downstairs she heard it. The question that she didn't want an answer for.
"What was the reason for your most recent breakup?"
She didn't want Hunter to have to answer that; she couldn't put him through with it. So she went down stairs and cleared her throat so that all attention was on her. "I thought I told you to..." Vince started but was interrupted by Stephanie.
"Dad, I just wanted to let you know the answer to your question. You see, I'm sure that Hunter would probably have lied and placed the blame on himself. But I can't let him do that. So please, let me explain."
Vince eyes his daughter for a long while before speaking. "Go ahead." He says and motions for her to sit in the brown armchair. She does as she is told and then starts her story.
"Well you daddy one after noon Hunter came over and we watched a movie on my TV. I forget what it was though because I was preoccupied." She looks at Hunter and smiles a smile that only he could notice, "And then we started, you know, kissing and stuff...But then I realized what time it was a remembered that you and mom would be home in like 15 minutes so I made him leave. He just got really pissed because I promised him that I would...tell you guys that we were going out the next time I saw you. And well, obviously I lied. So then we got into an argument, I told him he was scum and he left. We didn't see each other again until today. So daddy, don't get mad at Hunter, it really is my fault, mine and mine only. Don't involve Hunter." She managed to lie right through her teeth. It actually wasn't a whole lie; they had been watching a movie that day. But that was the only truth to the story.
Vince looked at baby girl one more time before telling her to leave and go back to her room. As soon as she was out of eyesight he slowly turned to Hunter and states calmly but forcefully, "Get out of my house." Hunter obeys and is out of the house in record time. He couldn't wait to get home.
