y/n's like scarlett she always falls asleep in movies. checking the time it was late enough so i picked the teen up carrying her up to well what i now called her room. skilfully while still holding her i open the door walking over to the bed. 
"goodnight sweetheart" i whisper kissing her forehead and tucking the blankets up closer to y/n's chin. 
"goodnight mama" she mumbles rolling over. i cant keep myself from smiling. 
"what was that" i question wanting to hear it again but receive no answer as she was sleeping. 
i pause outside her room once i had closed the door and just couldn't stop grinning. 

4 hours later...

i herd screaming come from down the hall. jumping out of bed i rush to see if y/n was alright. i run into her room to see her hyperventilating in bed sat upright. when i opened the door her head snapped to my direction and pure fear spread across her face. she falls off the bed scrambling to the corner where she crawls up into a ball. slowly i make my way over to her. 
however when i come closer she curls up more wrapping her arms around her legs tightly. "im sorry i wont do it again" she sobs slightly raising her voice. 
"do what baby" i ask stopping in the middle of the room. enough of a distance. she keeps whispering im sorry over and over sounding completely broken. i begin walking over again. she watches me petrified. sitting in front of her she stares at my eyes searching. 
slowly i lifted my hand to put it on her shoulder but she still flinched. it hurt me to see her react like that. i think i had enough evidence to know what was happening at home. 
cautiously she watches my hand until it meets her shoulder. gently moving my thumb to comfort her i wait until i can do anything more. she melts under my touch. all i want is to have her in my arms to comfort her. 
after a second y/ns face softens. "lizzie" she crys softly finally recognising me. "im sorry i thought you were my dad" she admits not realising it and crying more. i lift my hand to cup her cheek gently wiping the tears away. 
"come here" i open my arms, without hesitation she crawls into my lap sobbing into my chest. i wrap one arm around her back the other cradling her head. "shh its okay, im here sweetheart" i gently rock her side to side.
it takes a while for y/n to calm down but eventually her sobs just turn into small sniffles. 
"sorry" she mumbles once again i shake my head
"you have nothing to be sorry for sweetheart." i assure her rubbing my hand up and down her back. 
we sit there for a while just enjoying the company. a while ago it began raining.
 if you told me a month ago i would be sitting on the floor with my dau- with a kid that has changed my life so much listening to the rain after movies and flour fights i would laugh in your face. but i wouldnt trade it for the world. because right now in this moment. i am happy. 
a couple minutes she stops sniffling and goes quiet. i assume she had gone to sleep. so i stood up ready to put y/n back in bed when she mumbles something i couldn't hear. 
"what was that hun?" 
"could you stay... please" she asks opening her eyes again to look at me. i smile and nod getting in beside the teen.  by this point it was 4am and we would need to be up around half past 6 in the morning
