Sweet life of Phoebe Grey

Chapter 6

(Teddy's Pov)

I am at my apartment eating and watching football with Jake, my roommate. I get a call from Dad. "Hey Dad what's up" I ask as I walk out of the TV room. "Hey son how are you?" He sounds stressed and worried. "I am good is everything okay at home with mom and Bubs?" I say sitting down on my bed. Dad starts telling me everything that has happened with Phoebe.

I run my hands through my hair. I talked to her Sunday and she said everything was fine I knew something was up I should have pressed the subject a bit more. "Dad should I call her and talk to her? I can't believe she drank and walked home is she stupid." My dad tells me that he wants to bring her to see me this weekend and that he thinks she is acting out because she misses me. I agree and am excited to see her but it is going to take a lot for me not to scold her for putting herself in danger.

This week absolutely flew by. I spent a lot more time with my parents because I didn't have my phone or anything. It is now Friday morning I am walking into school and all of a sudden he is there in front of me. "Ryan stop" I say before he even has the chance to talk. "Phoebes please talk to me let me explain" he begs I agree to talk to him at lunch. I tell him I will meet him in the courtyard.

The classes before lunch feel like ten hours each. Finally the bell rings and I make my way down to the courtyard. There he is sitting there looking beautiful as always. Stop it Phoebe he hurt you. I go and sit across from him. He looks at me then begins talking.

"I was drunk Phoebe I am sorry I will never forgive myself for hurting you like I did. You don't have to have s*x with me I don't even want to until you are comfortable. I am so sorry there is no excuse for what I did. I am so sorry and don't expect you to forgive me anytime soon." He looks sincere. But he is right there is no excuse and I don't think I can get back together with him.

"Ryan you really hurt me. I walked home that night and it was my first time drinking thank god my dad found me or I could have been really hurt. You are right there is no excuse. I will forgive you but I just don't think I can ever get back together with you. Maybe someday in the future but not now." He nods looking down "I am so sorry Phoebe" he says again. I get up and start walking to the bathroom as tears slip down my eyes. I sit in the stall crying, sobbing actually. I hear the bell ring but I can't go to class just yet I am a mess.

After collecting myself my eyes are still red and so are my cheeks. I walk into Mr. Williams's class 6 minutes late. "Ms. Grey so nice of you to join us I assume you have a note" I shake my head "of course you don't that will be another lunch detention." He says I just nod and go back to my seat in the back. I want to tell Dad about him but I know he will go ballistic and cause a scene; which is the last thing I need. After class when I am walking out Mr. Williams calls me over "Ms. Grey I suggest you start taking my class seriously or there will be serious consequences." I look down but then get a boost of courage "I don't know why you don't like me I have done nothing to you. I have maintained an A in your class I don't talk at all and you still pin me as this awful student. Why do you hate me?" I ask at this point tears are streaming down my face. There is a knock at the door and my father walks in. Can this day get any worse?

I am surprising Phoebe and taking her to see Teddy today. I am picking her up from school early. I walk into the office and the woman sends down a note. After five minutes I ask again. The bell rings and I wait some more. "Ms. Brooks can you please tell me what class my daughter was just in." I give her my smile and she blushes looking down. It is just a pretty face sweetheart. She gives me the room number. This Mr. Williams man is really pushing my buttons. Phoebe tells me not to worry about it but I do. Nobody messes with my sweet Bubs.

When I approach the classroom I hear him reprimanding someone. Then I open the door to find my sweet girl in tears. I walk in "what is happening in here?" I ask. When Mr. Williams turns I almost have a heart attack. It is Leila's twin brother Michael. No wonder he is giving Phoebe a hard time. "Mr. Grey your daughter has not been taking my class seriously and has been very disrespectful today she walked in late because she decided she needed a longer lunch." I glare at him Phoebe starts to defend herself but I calmly tell her to go with Taylor to the car. "But dad I-" I cut her off and tell her to go to the car. Phoebe storms out crying. Time to deal with this asshole.

After an hour he has been fired for bullying my daughter and sent off I told him if he ever messes with my family again he wouldn't ever get a job west of the Mississippi. That scared him off.

I get into the car and breakdown sobbing into my arms crying about everything that has happened to me. I wait and after 45 minutes I am asleep in the backseat of the car. I haven't been sleeping well at all.

I feel someone start to rub my arm to wake me. I open my eyes to find my Dad looking down at me. He brushes his knuckles against me cheek. When I sit up and look outside we are at sea-tac. "Dad why are we here" I ask really confused he never told me about a trip. "We are going to see Teddy Bubs surprise" he smiles. My heart swells. I have missed my brother so much. I hug my Dad and follow him into the plane.
