Unexpected

Zack's POV

After the Thanksgiving dinner ended, everyone was exhausted. The food ran out, our bellies were full (Kenzie and I should work out tomorrow), and we went home with smiles on our faces. Kenzie and I walked home with the guacamole Jack gave us and as soon as we closed the door, we ran and cleaned ourselves. We smelled like food and honestly, neither of us wanted to smell like that.

After the shower I was looking for a shirt, which I accidentally didn’t bring to the bathroom, and when I searched my closet, I saw my old acoustic guitar. I put my shirt on and stared at my guitar for God knows how many minutes. I took it and I sat down. I was a bit frozen for some time. I didn’t know what to play, but then a random song came to my mind. I played it and hummed along. I’ve missed this. I was a little rusty, but I got through it. I honestly spaced out, but my endless wonders were soon interrupted when Kenzie walked in.

“I haven’t hear you play that song since… forever.” She stood next to the door with her arms crossed, a small smile coming from her mouth. “I’ve missed it.”

“Me too, sweetie. Me too.” I smiled. “Kenzie could you come here for a while?”

“Sure dad, what’s going on?” Her smile faded and she sat next to me.

“Well a little birdy told me that love is in the air.” She looked at me with a really confused about that. “Okay, that might be confusing, but you’re not leading anyone on are you?”

“Well, I don’t know… Dad, I’m really not comfortable talking about feelings. Can I just go?” She said standing up looking uncomfortable. Not mad, but very uncomfortable.

“I’m sorry. I know you don’t like it. Forgive me.” I patted the spot next to me.

“Why are you asking me about it, dad?”

“I was just curious. I’m sorry.”

“It’s okay dad.”

“And Mackenzie, if I may ask, you’re still a virgin right?”

“Yeah dad, I’m a virgin. I’m untouched.”

“That’s relieving.”

“What made you think I wasn’t?”

“I just wanted to make sure. You know I trust you, but who knows there’s a lucky guy.”

“Well dad, I’m not like you. I’m really protective about myself.” She smiled and so did I.

“Okay then.” She stood up and headed to the door, but I stopped her. “Kenzie, why don’t we watch something tonight?”

“Sure dad. What do you have in mind?”

“You choose.”

“We Bought A Zoo?” She gave me smile. An excited smile, the one that made her look like a 5 year old. I smiled back, signaling that We Bought A Zoo was a great choice. She got really excited and the both of us went downstairs to watch the movie.

We took our movie blanket and we started the movie. I had my arms around her and her head was on my shoulders. The movie was long and it was getting late, so after ¾ of the movie, she fell asleep. I looked down at her and smiled. I kissed her forehead and held her closer. She was my little girl and I’m glad I have her.
