My wide tongue slides across my bottom lip then reapply my bright red lipstick. My school uniform skirt is set just right, barely covering my big ass and my white blouse is doing a good job of showing plenty of cleavage line.
I walk out of the girl's bathroom, grab my book bag out of my locker and leave school as quickly as I can, ignoring all the other students hanging out or going home.
Dad smiles when he sees me approach his car. He's outside leaning against the side so he can open the door for me. He's always so polite.
Once I slide in he closes the door and gets in himself behind the wheel. Even though I'm 18 with a driver's license, I'm not allowed to drive his car. He did promise me my own when I go off to college but until then he's picking me up and dropping me off.
"Hey, sweetie, how was school?" he asks pulling off and driving down the road. It's going to be a short ride since we only live a few miles away.
"Good." I reach into my bag and pull out my English test and hold it up across my chest. "I got an A!"
"That's great, baby," he says then turn his eyes back to the road. Disappointment sinks in and I look down at my paper like there's something wrong with it.
"It's the highest grade in the class," I add just to emphasis how big of a deal this is but he only nods.
When we get home I rush out the car frustrated slamming the door behind me. "Kelsey?" he calls but I don't look back.
I take out my key to unlock the door and immediantly the smell of ground beef hits me. I ignore it and head straight to my room past the kitchen. Of course, Mom sees me. "Hey, Kels. You okay?" she asks but I keep walking.
When I get to my small room on the second floor all the way down the hall I lock the door behind me. I toss my book bag aside and slam face first on my bed. I can tell my skirt flew up because I feel a cool breeze on my ass cheeks. I'm wearing a thong, but I don't bother fixing my skirt since I'm safe behind my lock door.
What the fuck is wrong with Dad? He completely ignored my good grade while him and mom have been nagging me about studying for that damn test and all I get is a 'that's good'. I'm not saying that they should take me out to dinner or get an ice cream cone like I'm a damn child but come on! Something!
There's a knock on my door but I don't move.
"Kelsey," Dad calls. His voice is deep now and very serious. Part of me still tenses up even though he's still behind the door. "Open the door."
I don't answer.
"I'm not asking, Kelsey."
When I don't answer again I can hear him sigh. He says, "Look I don't know what's bothering you or why you're taking it out on me and your mother but you better get an attitude adjustment and come down to dinner."
There's a pause between us. "Don't you want to show off that A to your mom?"
My eyes narrow and I lift my head up and snap it to the direction of the door. Oh, now he remembers? Now? He has some balls. Why remember now after clearly not caring when he was in the car. I think about yelling all this at him but figure not answering him would be even better. And I'm not going down to dinner either.
Part of me knows I'm acting like a 5 year old but dammit this isn't the first time he encourages me to do something. Both him and mom actually, and when I turn around and do it they act like they don't give a shit either way.
I hear the doorknob rustle and my heart start beating fast. He doesn't get in of course but it still makes nervous. After it stops I blow out a breath.
"Open the door!"
"No!" I finally shout.
There're footsteps outside my door, then I hear him and mom whispering but I can't make out what they're saying. More footsteps.
Two minutes pass before I hear anything. Then without warning I hear footsteps, doorknob rustling again but this time it swings open showing my very red faced dad. His muscles are tense inside his tight black shirt and his face look like he's had his last straw. I look to the doorknob and see a key sticking out. He walks in and closes the door behind him.
"I swear to God, Kelsey, you are going to be the death of me," he says through gritted teeth. He definitely looks like he's trying not to yell.
I jump up, changing my seating position and fixing my skirt. "How did you get in here!" I shout already knowing the answer. What I really mean, is where the hell did that key come from?
"We've always had a key. We have a key for every door we can lock in this house," he says. He comes over to my bed and sits next to me. I'm sitting crisscross leaning back on my hands so he has to sit a bit at an angle to look at my face. "Why are you mad now?"
I narrow my eyes at him. "You didn't care that I got an A."
"Of course I care! Why wouldn't I care."
"You don't care! You never care! You act like you care by saying get good grades so you can go to college. Pass this test. Don't mess up on this quiz. All that stuff you say just to shrug it off as a good job when I do it. Is that all I get?"
He frowns at me but I can see the concern and confusion in his eyes. "What more do you want? Money?"
"No..." I say but my voice is softer now. I never really thought about what I wanted but focused on what I got instead. I guess I just want better recognition. "I want you to be proud of me. I want me getting a good grade to be as big a deal as it was when I was younger. Now it's like 'eh, whatever'. "
He reaches over and takes my hand in his and looks into my eyes. "That's not how it is."
"Yes, it is."
He shakes his head. "Listen, you don't know the whole story. Me and your mom have been struggling a lot to pay some credit card bills and now my old student loans resurfaced with some issues. We've just been stressing out lately, but you, sweetheart, you're the only one in our lives that been working right. You're still doing good like we've raised you and.."
"But I don't feel like I am," I say. I know it's rude to interrupt when someone's talking but I can't help it. "I feel...unappreciated."
He looks at my face. Then he looks my whole body up and down and it makes me feel vulnerable for some reason. "I appreciate you. We both do."
I bite my bottom lip because I know he cares about me. I even know deep down I'm acting like a brat. "You promise?"
"Promise?"
"To always appreciate me and my grades."
He smiles patiently. "Yes."
I smile back and he looks me up and down again but much slower this time until he reach my face.
Then I remember what he said about being stressed out and I guilt feeling starts in the pit of my stomach. "I'm sorry you and mom are stressed about money."
He shrugs still looking at my body again and I guess I should change my position. I'm pretty much leaned back showcasing my breasts and thighs and maybe even the front of my thong from his angle. I don't need another reason for him to yell at me.
I know I should move but I don't. I can't seem to. I'm fascinated as I watch him watch me. But eventually he looks at my face again with sadness in his eye.
"What's wrong?" I ask. I know the answer is stress and money unless he's worrying about something else.
"You wouldn't understand," he says softly, defeat in his voice.
"I wouldn't understand what?" I ask. I stop leaning on my hands and straighten up a bit and his eyes follow my face. "I'm not a baby anymore, you know. I can handle adult stuff."
He surprises me by licking his lips and shaking his head. He looks towards the door to my room like he's expecting mom to burst in any second. Would that be a problem?
"Can I help?" I ask. He looks so worried, so sad and I know he's not telling me something. But if there's anyway I can help him and mom... Anything I can do shouldn't I do it? "Do you need me to get a job?"
He chuckles. "No, it's fine. I don't need you to do that. Just focus on school."
When I pout his eyes follow my lips and I get the hint this time. He's turned on by me. My own dad is turned on by me and he's staring at my lips! Hell, a second ago he was staring at my whole body but I had brushed it off as nothing.
I reach over quickly and give him a hug. I press my breast hard against his shoulder and chest since I'm hugging at a weird angle. He shifts so that I'm hugging him from the front and before I know it I'm sitting all the way in his lap with my legs on either sides of his waist.
I don't break the hug. I'm scared to. He kisses my hair and pats my back a few times. When I don't release him after a few moments. His pats me in a 'okay, kiddio, time to stop now' way but I still don't let him go.
Then he pats my lower back a few times until finally my ass. He taps it like it's a little spanking for not letting go but I don't take it that way. When he taps it I grind my hips a little so it'll rub the cock beneath his jeans.
He freezes for a minute. "Kelsey."
"Yes?"
"Do you know what you're doing?"
