Daddy's Little Girl
Maggie Gray is now 15 years old…
Now she hasn't slept in weeks
She don't want to close her eyes cause she's scared that he'll leave
They tried just about everything
It's getting harder now
For him to breathe
And she says
She was sat in the family room; working on her Science project. Maggie Gray was a top student along with her best friend; Michael Black. Many people think that they more to it than friendship but Maggie and Michael don't want to rush things and don't even know if things would work out between them.
Maggie stopped working for a minute to see if she had any miss calls from her daddy; Shane Gray. He had gone another tour; Maggie never really understood when she was little but now she old enough, she does understand because she sees Nate and Jason have to the same thing.
But when Maggie played up at School once when she was 13 years old; she remembers him telling her off big time saying that she is being raise to be a good girl but Maggie had turned around and said how you would know you're never around. But once Maggie saw sense to see what her dad was telling her, she said she was sorry and promised to be good.
Maggie adores her mother and father to the end of the world. Maggie knew she a daddy's girl, she could get whatever she wanted if it was important but Mitchie and Shane had always made sure Maggie goes without and be left out of the world.
This year; Maggie had gone to one of his concerts with Mitchie, Caitlyn, Michael and Nick. It was crazy to see her dad on stage. She was the most popular girl at school along with Michael.
Maggie friendship with Michael is good, Shane would worry about it sometimes and have words with Nate but he would turn around and say, leave it alone. I remember Michael first problem; Michael had found out his father, Nate was cheating on Caitlyn. Obviously, Michael told Caitlyn but apparently it was all a misunderstanding and nothing more to it.
Maggie picks her phone up and dials Shane number because she was getting a bit worried into why she hasn't heard from him. It just ringed and went to answering machine. After an hour of trying to get hold of Shane; the house phone had started to ring. Maggie got up to answer it.
"The Gray house, this is Maggie speaking" Maggie replied.
Then all the sudden, a scream came from Maggie mouth. "OH MY GOD … Is he going to be okay?" Maggie asked. There was a pause for a minute then Maggie spoke again. "I'm on my way"
Maggie hung up the phone and grabbed the house keys and left the house with her phone and jacket. Maggie had been running to the bus stop; she was crying and it was raining at the same time. As Maggie sat down on the bus; she thought of deep full things of Shane.
She remembers her first argument with him. She remembers her first learn of life from him. She remembers the first time he spoke about boys to her. She remembers all the trips to the park. She remembers everything that she done with him. She was Daddy's Little Girl. Of course, Maggie loves her Mom, Mitchie but Maggie was an only child.
Maggie remembers the painful phone call she just had about her dad, Shane. He had been involved in a car crash and it was heart breaking to hear that. But apparently, he is okay. As she got to the hospital she saw Mitchie, Nate, Jason and Caitlyn sitting outside the room. Maggie ran to Mitchie and cried.
"He going to be okay" Mitchie cried hugging Maggie tight.
We didn't hear anything for about another 2 hours. I was told by mom to go to sleep but I refused, I couldn't go to sleep without knowing if my daddy is going to be okay. I couldn't think negative because that's not what my dad would want.
As I sat up waiting to hear from the doctors; I sat wondering what would happen to my dad life, it would rip his heart out if he couldn't play for the band anymore. I know how much it means to him, his music. It means a lot to me as well because my dad would sing to me every night before I go to sleep; he does the same with my mom. I can honestly say I am proud of my dad.
The doctors finally came to tell us some good news. My dad was going to be okay but he had a broken leg and had a couple of broken ribs but everything was okay and that we could all go in the room.
I had ran into the room and I saw the biggest smile on his face.
"DADDY" I shouted giving him a hug and kiss on the cheek.
It wasn't long before the others came in the room. I could finally relax knowing he was going to be okay.
Daddy Daddy don't leave
I'll do anything to keep you
Right here with me
Can't you see how much I need you
Daddy Daddy don't leave
The doctors are saying things they told me
They don't know what they talking about
Somebody hear me out
Father (father) listen (listen)
Tell him that he's got a home and he don't have to go (don't have to go)
Father (father) save him
I would do anything in return
