Mathews POV
Coach K tried to get Micah to talk to him the entire practice. At one point she left and after practice was over, I went and found her. She was in the sound proof room where they control the scoreboard and lights. She had a guitar in hand and softly singing.
"Four years old
With my back to the door
All I could hear
Was the family war
Your selfish hands
Always expecting more
Am I your child?
Or just a charity award?
You have a hollowed out heart but it's heavy in your chest
I tried so hard to fight it but it's hopeless
Hopeless
You're hopeless
Oh father, please father
I'd love to leave you alone but I can't let you go
Oh father, please father
Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter
It's been five years
Since we've spoken last
And you can't take back
What we never had
Oh, I can be manipulated only so many times
Before even "I Love You"
Starts to sound like a lie
You have a hollowed out heart but it's heavy in your chest
I tried so hard to fight it but it's hopeless
Hopeless
You're hopeless
Oh father, please father
I'd love to leave you alone but I can't let you go
Oh father, please father
Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter
Don't you remember I'm your baby girl?
How could you push me out of your world?
Lied to your flesh and your blood
Put your hands on the ones that you swore you loved
Don't you remember I'm your baby girl?
How could you throw me right out of your world?
So young when the pain had begun
Now forever afraid of being loved
Oh father
Please father
I'd love to leave you alone but I can't let you go
Oh father
Please father
Oh father
Please father
Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter
For the love of a daughter"
Shes finishes and shes crying.
"I miss you mom, i miss you so much. Dad's right, i wish they offed me and not you."
That broke my heart. I softly knock on the door. She jumps.
"Hey Mat," she wipes her tears. "That was amazing." Her face shows a look of horror. "You heard?" Shes worried. "Yeah i did, you're fucking amazing."
I stare at her features. Her eyes, my God her eyes, they're hazel, they've changed colour. Last night they were dull, almost grey. This morning they're a mix of blue, green and grey.
"You like my eyes?" Shit.
"Uh. Uhm." I stutter.
"No point in denying it, i heard you, ' Her eyes, my God her eyes, they're hazel, they've changed colour. Last night they were dull, almost grey. This morning they're a mix of blue, green and grey.'"
"Okay yes i like your eyes, they're beautiful. You're beautiful," i mutter the last under my breath.
"Just my eyes?" She looked up, they were green and brown now.
No you're face, you're body, everything, "No, your personality too. We're gonna be great friends."
I swear i saw her frown.
Micahs POV
We we're walking out of the rink or my dad approached us. He put his hand on my shoulder and I jerked forward I started walking really fast but Mat stayed back to talk to him. I overheard their conversation.
"let me talk to her," I hear Mat scoff. "no," way to be blunt. "she my daughter, let me see her." he's angry now. He pushes Mat to the floor and comes towards me, I tower in fear. He grabs my forearm harshly, "you're hurting me," he ignores me, "please let go of me." I started thinking of the worst scenarios, what if he kills me, what if he holds me hostage, what if I never get to see Mat again. I plead in my head that mat gets up, get up before- we're almost to his car.
I look over my shoulder and check to see if Matt's coming but I don't see him, he left. I thought I could trust him. Before I can even turn back around someone's tugging me my other arm and when I look up I see Mat. We run to his car and get in.
"Are you okay? Micah? Did he hurt you? MICAH!" Mat says looking over to me, "He didn't hurt me."
I didn't speak to him for 6 days after that...
