Once the two had entered Amelia's classroom, for a parent/teacher conference; both were hoping that nothing couple in fact go possibly wrong. While listening to the teacher speaking about what their daughter was learning, Lilly glanced over at John whom seemed very interested in their daughter's academics.
Then the woman sat down in from of them, "Amelia's a very smart girl, social able but lately she has saying some alarming things; about having an older father, wanting a new one instead"
John nodded, "My wife and I have already spoken to her about that, I've already seen her being teased about it by her", worrying now about how his daughter was now thinking.
"I have also observed this as well, but clearly I think something else is troubling Amelia. Have there been any problems at home that could be causing this"?
The two knew nothing about why their daughter would be acting so abnormal, but Lilly then let out a breath. However John listened intently, as he heard that Amelia's grades were now starting to slip. She no longer did want to participate in class. Somehow he knew that by punishing she wasn't going to be the answer, especially if this had to do with him being an older dad.
Soon after the meeting, John could see just how disturbed Lilly had become, "Maybe it isn't me Lil, could be the fact that Amelia is getting constantly picked on. She doesn't deserve it", as he then went back into the classroom to speak with the teacher some more.
"I witnessed just how cruel her classmates have been towards her, this isn't good for Amelia to be not able to come to school to learn", he said firmly. The woman was clearly not a good teacher, whom probably cared less about her students, "It's a different generation".
John then interrupted, "Cut the bull, kids were getting picked on even in my day. This isn't just bulling, when it comes to my daughter not being able to even want to step foot instead of the school. What is really going on here", realizing that what the teacher had said was a complete lie, and that she was holding a grudge against Amelia for some stupid reason.
"You are to treat Amelia equally; I know that my daughter is very smart like her mother. I see her doing her homework every night and don't play that game and say that she doesn't. The phone calls are bogus; my wife is down the hall speaking to the principal".
Mrs. B, stood there still keeping her head down, "Quite frankly, she doesn't even ask for any help, when I give it to her".
John's eyes widened," How can I really believe what you are saying is true. You're a teacher now do your damn job"!!
Somehow after the whole conference, John took the rest of the afternoon off to spend some time with Amelia. He knew now that he had taught her how to be strong herself, but knew that her teacher really didn't have her best interests at heart.
"Am I bad Daddy", asked Amelia softly.
John shook his head, "No, but you can't be afraid to go to school".
"I'm not smart", the five year old pouted, and "My teacher said so".
He felt for his little girl a lot, "You are Amelia, Mommy and I know that you are", showing that he had confidence in her. She then walked up closer as John then held her close, while comforting the five year old, "I'm always going to love you no matter what".
Although it may have seemed strange to her, John didn't try to act youthful around her. Instead he remained the person that he had always been; but wanted Amelia to see him also as a role model rather than some dad with a series midlife crisis.
Somehow Lilly had walked in seeing how patient John was while he was teaching her how to spell. Though he was tough on suspects, but at home he played a very patient dad to both of their girls.
However later on, Lilly opened a photo album that displayed photos of both her and John; while they were dating and wedding photos. As she began teaching her daughter about what love was really about, the memories of when Lilly first felt her heart flowing with love came seeping in again. She remembered how at one point , how John though he had lost what it had felt like to be in love; but now saw that in fact he was quite capable of loving someone.
Flipping through more photos, Lilly could see just how happy she had felt just by being with someone she truly loved. Though it didn't matter; as now a hand gently touched her shoulder; shaking Lilly out of a very deep fantasy world. She now realized that it was just four days until their wedding; but knew that just by taking his hand, it would lead to a better life together, with him.
Even after the pale blonde bride, gently walked down the aisle, John felt his heart being gradually lifted up into the air. His breath was being slipped away, leaving a man that only had eyes for an angel named Lilly.
Later that night the two fell into their ever growing, bed of roses; while John stared into his blue eyes; observing just how precisely blue they were, " Kiss me John", came a voice of many whispers. However John was busying admiring his wife, as if she was a piece of fine art. Lilly could feel the warmth in his eyes, knowing that he also loved her.
As his lips crashed onto hers, their hearts began to each beat at the same rhythm. One by one, their love blossoms while each of their bodies moved slowly together. Within each moan, pant and touch came the blossoms of more love to grow between them. Even after the huge tidal wave of their orgasm had passed, John continued looking into her eyes.
His hand softly touched the side of her cheek, while another hand gently touched the middle of Lilly's swelling stomach knowing that this was the expression of their love.
