You had always loved your dad.

You were incessantly glued to his side when you were younger, always climbing onto his lap and begging for kisses, wanting to be close to him all the time.

You were the one constant in his life, even with two divorces.

As you grew up, nothing changed. You continued to be a daddy's girl, and he's always enjoyed your clinginess, adored how cute you were when you were glowing under his praise and attention.

But now that you were an adult, you've noticed your affections have warped into something... more.

Your father got your heart thumping, your hands clammy. When you were younger you'd just thought it was a girl's natural response to her father's love, but now it was different.

You can't help the warm fuzzy feeling in your belly when he looks at you, or the way your breath catches when he calls you his favorite name for his favorite girl. You can't help how much you enjoy the way his arm wraps around your body as he brings you into a tight embrace, how the touch of his hands on your back and the heat of his body against yours make you feel safe and protected.

Which is why you're so upset when he announces he's getting married, again.
