I woke up and it was mid-day. Robin was cooking something that smelled good and Harry was playing with Doi. I got up and my head started hurting, it was pounding so loud. I got out of bed and walked into the living room. "Uh, hey guys.". Then I got a flash-forward? It was weird we were in the same position Harry was playing with Doi but older Doi and Harry was older too. Robin was cooking and he looked a bit older. I looked at my hands and there was a white glove there holding my hand. I freaked out and came back to the present. They looked at me I found myself breathing heavily. Harry got up and looked at me then smiled, I smiled back and said: "Heh what are you guys doing?". Harry looked at me and the others didn't say a word, they just watched Harry inspect me. Harry then hugged me, and said: "Everything will be ok.". It was sweet but I had no idea what was happening. I then looked at my hand and there was a green bottle half empty and it was filled with whiskey. I backed up and rubbed my aching head. I tried to bring up memories of last night but nothing came. Robin came over with Doi and said "You woke up last night and cried. Then you went to the kitchen and found a bottle and drank half of it. Every time I or Harry tried to stop you, you would either cry more or yell at us.". My heart then dropped. "Oh, I-I'm so, so sorry I-I.... I didn't mean I wasn't trying to-". I was cut off by a knocking on the hotel door.
We all stopped and looked at it. It knocked again and I went to open it, but Harry put his arm in front of me and walked towards the door. He opened it and Robin went to the door as well. He stopped and went into the hallway with Robin. I and Doi stood there waiting I told him to "stay back.", and walked up to the door. I pressed my ear up against it and heard Harry say "You can't be here. Avery doesn't want to see you!". Then the voice spoke, "Why, not I just want to help?!". It was Tony! I backed up from the door as tears formed in my eyes. I grabbed Doi's hand and ran to the backpack that was in the corner. I grabbed everything around that was ours. Then the door opened I got up but didn't turn around hoping that was Harry and Robin coming back to tell me Tony was gone. The figure walked closer to me and I watched the shadow come up. Then it said "Avery?". It was Tony! Tears fell down my face as I turned around. He looked at me and sighed "Look, I'm so-". "No, I don't want to hear it! You should have listened to Harry. I don't want to see you!". I pushed him away and went into one of the rooms. I grabbed my phone and my keys. Tony blacked my way from getting out. He stopped me! After me trying to slide by it failed and I sighed and looked at him. "Wait do you want?". He then reached for a hug but I backed away. Holding up my hands to block him from reaching me and he brought down his arms. I brought down mine and stood up straight. Tony then sighed and walked away. I watched from the door way as he said goodbye to Robin, Doi, and Harry then left. I came out and said to them "Guys I know a place we can go and live there.". I pulled out the paper from inside my pocket. It was crumpled and a bit was torn but I could still read the numbers.
I rang up the phone and on the other line my dad picked up saying "Hello?". "Dad this is me, Avery?". "AVERY! Hi, sweetie. What do you need?". "Dad, listen I just need a place to stay and the three other friends.". He stopped and seemed to think for a bit. "Ok honey I got two bedrooms left for you and your friends.". I smiled and said, "Thank you.". I hung up the phone and texted dad "Hey where's your address?". He responded after we got into the car. "SW Stain ST. 1356". I smiled and turned on the car. Robin then asked, "Hey, where are we going?". He looked at me and I said to the short male "Home.". I pulled out and made my way to dads house. We got there and it was nice it was one story and it was a light blue on the outside. I got out and Robin, Harry, and Doi were hesitant to come out. After me smiling at them they got out and looked at the house. The doorknob twist and stepped out my father. He smiled and so did I. He came out to give me a hug and I gave him one, and also I really needed it. He looked at my friends and smiled they cautiously smiled back. Doi, of course, being so innocent came up to my dad and gave him a big hug that only went to his waist. Dad smiled and hugged Doi. We all went inside and dad asked: "So Avery it's been so long, but I want to make it up to you.". "That's great because I have to make it up to you!". He looked confused, "Listen I promised a certain dad to take care of my friends while he went away for a long time. So... can they stay with us?". He looked at Harry then Robin then Doi and said "Of course they can. Any friends of Avery is a friend of mine.". He hugged me and widened his arms so the other could join. They did but hugged weakly beside Doi.
Dad lead us to the boy's room. Then looked at me. "Sorry honey, I thought I had more rooms but I found out that I only had one more room.". He looked sad and scared, I thought *Eh, I'll give him a break from my wrath.*. "It's ok dad, I'll share the room with them.". He smiled and said, "Oh that's nice, I'll get beds today.". He kissed my forehead and walked out of the room to give us some space to talk and settle down. As we unloaded everything, I took the closet and the boys got the drawers. Harry got his own and Robin shared one with Doi. They unpacked everything and waited for me to get unloaded. Harry then said "Hey, look I know you want us to live somewhere but do you really want to be with your dad?". Robin then added "Ya last night you said you didn't want to talk him or see him.". I sighed and said "Ya, we got a place to be and I think it will be good that I connect with my dad.". Then Doi came up and said "It's ok, look now we both have bad dads!". He smiled and I laughed and said "You will never stop surprising me will you?". He jumped and said "NOPE!!". He then went back to draw.
