george daniel + stepdaughter!teen!reader

warnings: angst, mentions of bio dad, yelling, reader puches someone, mentions of blood, nothing gory or graphic, kind of short i started and finished this today (🫠) not proofread lolz

a/n: this is the unofficial sequel to ‘somebody else’. it basically just touches on the events there so i would recommend giving it a read before hand.

George was set for his day off. A beautiful day with no worries or fears about what’s to come. Just him, a TV, food, and a house to himself. The fantasy of a day off however came to an end when a call rang, two seconds after he sat down.

It had no caller ID but the area code was one he recognized so he answered anyway. “Hello?” He said, softly sighing.

“Is this the father of y/n Aitchison?” A voice sounded.

George’s attention piqued. “Yes, step-father.”

“This is Principal Mitchill, from y/n’s school. How are you doing today?” He said.

“Fine- is y/n alright?” George, getting straight to the point.

“Yes. However, I’m afraid she was sent to my office this morning

George grew confused. being sent to the front office hadn’t been unusual for you lately, but a call being sent home hadn’t happened before. The pair have noticed your mood changed recently, little slips of anger issues or what have you. Never directly to them though. They chalked it up to hormones of a growing girl and let it be, but now, George was connecting some dots.

”We’ve been trying to get into contact with her mother but she wasn’t answering. Do you know if she or yourself could come pick her up?”

George started to stand and put his dish away. “Her mom is out of town. I can be there in 15.”

“Thank you, see you then.”

…

”A fist fight! Really?” he said, as he slammed the door shut while getting in the car.

You rolled your eyes from the passenger seat. ”She got what she deserved. It’s not that big of a deal.”

”It’s a huge deal! Damn, even the shit I did when I was your age wasn’t ballsy enough like fist fight.” George really couldn’t believe what was happening. He couldn’t comprehend this news. Even given your history, this was so unlike you.

”Oh, of course. I bet you were an angel.”

He looked you dead on, “Not the point, missy. The point is you broke that girl's nose!”

”Have you seen her face? She deserved it.” You chuckled. George didn’t find it as funny though.

“Not the point ethier!” Damn it, she’s so much like her mother. ”You’re about to go to high school, y/n! They said this is going on your permanent record! They’re gonna look at his shit and see it and it's gonna get you in trouble down the road.”

”Whatever, I don’t care.” you said, mumbling, still loud enough for George to hear.

“Since when? Since when has this new, grungy, uncool, mean girl take over the body of my y/n who used to love school and would DREAM of putting a fist up against a petty teenager? Huh? What happened to her?”

”Oh shut up! Stop pretending to be my dad.”

As much as he knew you didn’t mean it. As much as he wanted to brush the comment off like it was nothing, he couldn’t deny the slight ache in his heart. You faced the window, too scared to confront him. You felt his eyes remain on you, even more when he let out a sigh before starting the car,

”Forgive me for caring.”

…

You ran straight upstairs when you got home. you expected him to stop you, tell you to come down, but he didn’t. You know yourself, you didn’t mean it. However, you didn’t know if George knew that.”

Hours passed, you declined dinner when George offered via text, he thought you were still mad at him, you thought he was still mad at you.

You worked up the courage at around 10 pm. You had heard his footsteps lead to his and Charli’s shared bedroom almost an hour ago, and figured it was time to go and apologize. the more you sat around or tried to distract you self from the events earlier today, the more agonized you felt.

You knocked out he door. He was sat up in bed, doing some work on his laptop. He smiled at thee sight of you. You just stood awkwardly at the door.

You had planned what to say, tried to imagine how this would all go down, but no rods came out of your mouth when you tried to speak, instead, just a tear down your cheek.

He playfully opened up his arms to you and you practically ran into his embrace, already starting to cry. He let out an almost fake grunt and kissed your head as you started to ramble.

”I didn’t mean what I said.” You spoke, softly.

”i know you didn’t-“

”I’m so sorry!” your cried into him. George just smiled.

”You don’t need to be sorry.”

”I said you weren’t my dad! And you are! You are my dad! You were trying to be helpful and I was being a bitch.”

”Hey! You are not a bitch.” He said, grabbing the sides of your face.

”But I’m sorry.”

”Fine. You’ll be forgiven when you tell me what going on with you.”

You groaned and he smiled.

You thought for a minute. truthfully, you had your answer, it was just hard to put into words. ”I don't like school anymore.” You started.

”No?”

You paused. ”No.”

”Why no?” He asked.

“It’s too boring.”

He smiled again. ”Well, everyone finds school boring.”

”Not me. I used to love school.”

”Hm. What happened then.”

You shrugged. ”I started not loving it?”

”Why’s that?”

You changed the subject, ”I feel like I haven't been the same since Justin was here.” George moved, to look directly at you. ”I don’t know why but I con’t stop thinking abut him…the things he did to me…or my mom.”

He didn't know a lot about Justin, or the specific things he did to you, knowing it was always a touchy subject and Charli and George wanted to respect your wished, as long as they knew you were okay. ”Like what.” He asked.

”I don’t want to talk about it.”

George feared he overstepped. ”Ok, we don’t have to. Why do you think you can't stop thinking about him though.”

”I get scared…that he’s gonna do something again. And maybe that’s why I keep acting out? I really don’t know-“

”Hey, It’s okay. You don’t need answers right now.” You nodded. “Just know I’m here if you need help finding them.”

Aca Top 10: Summer Hits 2014 — VoicePlay music video

After the whirlwind schedule of the first Sing-Off tour, completing several video projects it spawned, and then embarking on a series of cruise ship gigs, VoicePlay were ready for some summertime relaxation. For the first installment in their "Aca Top 10" series, they put together a countdown of recent chart-toppers. Recording it live meant that, once they got a good take, there was very little post-production required.

Details:

title: Aca Top 10 — Summer Hits 2014

original songs / performers: "Happy" by Pharrell Williams; [0:15] "Summer" by Calvin Harris; [0:32] "Turndown for What" by DJ Snake & Lil John; [0:42] "Wiggle" by Jason Derulo, featuring Snoop Dogg; [0:58] "All of Me" by John Legend; [1:13] "Stay with Me" by Sam Smith; [1:30] "Am I Wrong" by Nico & Vinz; [1:48] "Rude" by Magic!; [2:03] "Problem" by Ariana Grande, featuring Iggy Azalea; [2:22] "Fancy" by Iggy Azalea, featuring Charli XCX

written by: "Happy" by Pharrell Williams; "Summer" by Calvin Harris; "Turn Down for What" by William "DJ Snake" Grigahcine, Steve Guess, Jonathan "Lil John" Smith, & Martin "Tchami" Bresso; "Wiggle" by Jason Derulo, Ricky Reed, Andreas "Axident" Schuller, Jacob Kasher, Sean Douglas, "John the Blind" Ryan, Joe Spargur, & Calvin "Snoop Dogg" Broadus; "All of Me" by John Legend & Toby Gad; "Stay with Me" by Sam Smith, James "Jimmy Napes" Napier, William "Tourist" Phillips, Tom Petty, & Jeff Lynne; "Am I Wrong" by William Wiik Larsen, Nico Sereba, Vincent Dery, & Abdoulie "Abile" Jallow; "Rude" by Magic!, Adam "Messy" Messinger, & Alex Tanas; "Problem" by Max Martin, Savan Kotecha, Ilya Salmanzadeh, Amethyst "Iggy Azalea" Kelly, & Ariana Grande; "Fancy" by Amethyst "Iggy Azalea" Kelly, Charlotte "Charli XCX" Aitchison, George Astasio, Jason Pebworth, Jonathan Christopher Shave, & Kurtis "The Arcade" McKenzie

arranged by: Geoff Castellucci & Layne Stein

release date: 11 August 2014

My favorite bits:

Tony's aura of genuine enjoyment during "Happy"

Geoff and Layne's concerned reactions to the beginning of "Wiggle"

Earl and Eli whistling in flawless harmony

Layne gazing wistfully into the distance during "All of Me" because there's no percussion for him to do

the sincerity in their voices during "Stay With Me", and Earl's gorgeous high riffing

the cute "Did you know they were from Canada??" note on the sign for "Rude"

♫ "We're gonna give you some number 2." ♫ ::awkward pause::

the perfect fading echo effect at the beginning of "Problem"

Layne spitting bars once again on "Fancy"

Trivia:

Earl made the title-and-artist signs that Layne holds up. (I assume he also made the butts for "Wiggle", but that particular detail wasn't specified.)

"Rude" was part of the "aca-Disney mashup" VoicePlay recorded a few months later as part of the Disney on Broadway 20th anniversary celebration.

They later performed a full version of "Stay With Me" for their VIP sessions during the 2015 Sing-Off tour, and recorded a video for it while they were on the road.

"Wiggle" was also included in Home Free's "Butts Remix" medley, which Layne helped them arrange.

A very speedy creator made a My Little Pony fanvid using the audio from this medley in less than a week.

Lyrics:

You used to know me, now you don't

You used to hypnotize me, did it so easy

You, you, you, you

You had me 'round your finger

You had me on the floor

I used to be your angel

Now I'm walking out your door

You say I'm turning evil

I'll say I'm finally pure

Shine bright in my reflection

Think I lost myself before

Held me back, tied me up inside a cage

Had to change my life 'cause I knew you'd stay the same

Couldn't see you were standing in my way

I can see clearly now, now, now

You used to know me, now you don't

You used to hypnotize me, did it so easy

I'm finally free from your control

I don't need a kiss goodbye

I'm on my own tonight, oh

You used to know me, now you don't

You used to hypnotize me, did it so easy

I'm finally free from your control

I don't need a kiss goodbye

I'm on my own tonight, oh

I'm like a flower blooming

Since I left you behind

Don't know what I was doing

Thought your venom was divine

Knew you were turning evil

You said I lost my mind

No, you ain't gon' do me like that

Held me back, tied me up inside a cage

Had to change my life 'cause I knew you'd stay the same

Couldn't see you were standing in my way

I can see clearly now, now, now

You used to know me, now you don't

You used to hypnotize me, did it so easy (so)

I'm finally free from your control (control)

I don't need a kiss goodbye

I'm on my own tonight, oh

Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah

You used to know me, now you don't

Ritchie Sacramento by Mogwai from the album As The Love Continues - Director: Sam Wiehl

[graciegoeskrazy]

idea - what do you think it would be like when charli first introduced george to her daughter??? the idea has been pingponging in my head for a bit. ALSO! how do you think george would feel/react

LOVE THIS

Y'all had actually met before when him, matty and your mom were working together on the vocals for 'spinning'

the plan was kind of last minute so you had no choice but to come to the studio with your mom - not that you minded at all

you had heard about the band before but knew very little about them or the band

other than the fact that your mom was a fan and admired them

They were nice, your mom sounded beautiful as always, you mainly stayed quiet and scrolled on your phone because you knew they more than likely only had one night to do this and didn't want to be in the way and you were content watching random things on tiktok

you all said goodbye, it was fun, songs a hit, yay that's it

right?

WRONG THEY START DAITING

it wasnt official official for awhile but they were texting nonstop and clearly something was happening they just didn't know what exactly

as much as she didn't talk about it or swore against it you didn't miss how she smiled nearly everytime she got a notification or how the one time you caught a glance at it the contact said "George💚"

which you thought was interesting

the truth was that even though Charli really really liked George and vise versa they were both busy as hell and currently on opposite sides of the country and they didn't want to tell you until they knew for sure and were able to actually see each other

especially because your mom and broken up with her long time boyfriend not that long ago

and hurt you too

a lot

eventually the NME awards were taking place

and you were your mums date!

at the table you noticed her friend give a suggestive nod to somewhere on the other side of the room to which your mom sighed and smiled and shook her head no

"what?" you asked

"oh its nothing darling. I was just trying to get you mom to say hi to a familiar face. that's all."

Charli slapped her friends leg under the table

you realized the table she was nodding to was the one George and the band were at

you also realized she was staring back and forth the whole night

he was too

iwishyoudtalktalkwishyoudtalktalkwishyoudtalktalk

anywhooooo cut to a few days later

your mom was throwing another party or whatever

and said she needed to talk to you

"someone very special to me to gonna come over tomorrow during the party-"

"Its George."

she was FLABERGASTED

like she thought she did a good job of hiding everything from you all this time but guess not!

"What?!"

"It's George. You're talking about George. He's the 'someone special' right?" you said giving a smirk

her jaw was on the floor

"How do you know that? Who told you that?!"

you just gave her a look and said "Im young not dumb and oblivious mom."

She just smiled so big and pulled you into a hug.

okay so as if its a surprise to anyone - George is a nervous wreck :)

like practically pacing

Its not like the whole point of this party was for you and George to meet

and like more than half of the people there didn't even know they were dating

and charli and george weren't even sure if you were going to make an appearance

but ya did

You knew him and your mom were anxious about the meeting so u decided to have fun with it

you waited till you mom left the kitchen and it was just George and a couple of other people who weren't paying attention

You grabbed a drink and a small plate of food dropping a casual "hey George." as you did it

you could sense his heart rate quickening it was halarious

He cleared his throat, "Hey, y/n. How've you been."

You shrugged "Fine...You've been busy though?"

"Y/n Aitchison." You mom sternly said form behind startiling you

you said "sorry" and gave him a genuine smile before heading back upstairs

They both laughed so hard once you left

He was nice it wasnt like you would mess with his tooooo much

....

........

just a little bit maybe

it could be worse

she could be dating matty

On August 3rd 1855, inventor George Johnstone was born at West Linton.

Johnston was born on 3 August 1855 at West Linton, son of Reverend James Aitchison Johnston, a United Presbyterian Minister of Springburn, where George became an apprentice engineer at Neilson and Company a locomotive manufacturer in Glasgow.

Johnston’s extensive career as an engineer and inventor saw him establish a number of partnerships and numerous patents within the major industries of the day, from food production to textile. However, Johnston would make his name when he switched his attention to the internal combustion engine. After acquiring one of the first automobiles to arrive in Scotland in 1895, Johnston, convinced that he could design a better car, set to work in his workshop at his father’s manse at Mosesfield with the assistance of his cousin Norman Osbourne Fulton, engineer and Thomas Blackwood Murray, engineer to produce and patent their ‘Benzoline’ or petrol ‘dog cart’, the first to be built in the British Isles.

The first road trials took place at midnight in November with Johnston driving the dog cart at twelve miles an hour on a twenty mile journey across Glasgow. For this, he was charged with contravening the Locomotive Act by driving his ‘horseless carriage’ during prohibited hours along Buchanan Street, then the main shopping thoroughfare, the first known traffic fine in the country!

Johnston coined the term Mo-Car in an address to a meeting of the Edinburgh Association of Science and Arts, and went on to establish the Mo-Car Syndicate to build dog carts with works in Yates Street, Camlachie. The works were completely destroyed by fire in 1901. Despite their reopening in 1902 and successful participation in the Glasgow to London motor car race in 1903 and the run from Lands End to John O’Groats, the Syndicate was a financial failure and was bought over by William Beardmore & Co, who had the largest steelworks in Scotland.

It was re-launched as the Arrol-Johnston Car Company, without either Sir William Arrol or Johnston.

Johnston’s next venture, the Johnston Car Co, which became the All-British Car Co of Bridgeton, was eventually liquidated and Johnston declared bankrupt. In 1910, he left the country upon his appointed as manager of the newly formed West Mexican Mines Ltd, where he developed new methods of extraction. This venture was again a financial failure, and Johnston returned home where he spent the last years of his life in Edinburgh.

He died, unmarried, in 1945 at the grand old age of ninety, what a life he must have led!
