TW: MENTION OF ABUSE

PART TWO ~ CONFESSION

~<• the next morning •>~

You awoke to the sun shining brightly on your face. You soon got up, grabbed your duffel bag and began to walk. You found a pay phone and called JJ. You told him you were busy until later that night.

"What are you doing?" He asked. 

"Uh why?" You asked nervously. 

"I'm curious!"

"I'm helpin' my pops fish," you lied. 

"Oh, okay. See you later?"

"Yeah, should be around four," you replied. 

"Love you," JJ said. 

"Love you too," you replied before hanging up.

You looked at your beat-up watch. Shit. You were gonna be a bit late. You began to walk with a relatively fast pace to Shawn's apartment. (Shawn is a character in All American. he's in a gang and has a daughter who's like 2 named Maya. at first, Shawn kinda sucks, but as you get deeper into the series, he gets better. he just wants to give his daughter a better life. in this, Shawn's ur buddy)

You finally reached the door of his apartment and opened the door. 

"Where you been?" Shawn questioned a bit harshly. 

"Sorry, bro. I had to call somebody," you replied. 

"Who was you callin' and why was it more important than bein' here on time?"

"It some concern you. I was just tellin' somebody I was busy today," you replied. 

"Whatever. I'll be back by five prolly," Shawn said, leaving. You told JJ around four, but it should be fine. Right?

"(Y/n)!" Maya said enthusiastically, running up to you. You bent down so she could embrace you. 

"Yo. What's up, baby girl?"

"I missed you!" She said. 

"I missed you too," you replied. 

"Where's daddy goin'?" Maya asked. 

"I don't know; he didn't say," you said. You knew what he'd be doing. It went without saying. He'd be doing something gang-related. Probably stealing or something. Nothing new.


~<• time skip to 5:12 p.m. •>~


You and Maya were playing on the floor when Shawn walked in. You decided to give him a taste of his own medicine. 

"Where you been?" You said harshly, clearly mocking Shawn. 

"Man, shut up," Shawn said. 

"I'm just playin'," you said with a chuckle.

"(Y/n)! (Y/n)!" Maya said. 

"Yeah, baby girl?" You said, turning to her. 

"Do you have to go?" Maya said sadly. 

"Yeah, I think so. I'll come back in a few days prolly, though," you replied. 

"Okay," Maya said sadly. 

"Bye," you said as you walked out the door.

Off to John B's.


~<• time skip to when ur at John B's •>~


You walked up to John B's and saw the other Pogues sitting around outside. 

"Yo," you said. 

"Hey," Pope, Kie, and John B said half-heartedly. 

"Sorry I couldn't hang out today I was busy," you said. 

"Busy with what exactly?" JJ asked.

JJ looked at you and you were confused by his look. He looked betrayed. Why would he be though? And why was he asking what you had been doing? You had told him a lie and he seemed to believe it.

"I told you, I went fishin' with my pops," you said. 

"No, you didn't," he said. How did he know?

"What you mean, man? I been fishin' all day."

"Stop lying, (Y/n)."

"I ain't lyin'," you lied. 

"(Y/n)."

"What?" You asked. Deny, deny, deny.

"A little before five, you still weren't here, so, I decided to check on you," JJ said. Shit. "And you know what happened when I knocked on the door of the house that you supposedly live in?" Your heartbeat quickened.

"I was greeted by a man so I asked where you were." Shit. You would have to tell him now. 

"C-can we talk about this privately?" You asked JJ. The others didn't have to know, right?

"Fine," JJ said, standing up. You walked off just enough so that the others couldn't hear or see you.

"You know what that man said?" JJ asked. "He said he didn't know anybody named (Y/n)."

"A'ight, a'ight," you said quietly.

"What's going on? Where do you actually live? Why did you lie?"

"I-..." You started. "J... I-... I'm homeless..."

"W-what?" JJ looked confused.

"I-... I ran away when I was thirteen..."

"Wha- why?"

"I- uhm..." Tears began to well up in your eyes. "M-my d-da-d..." Your voice cracked. He knew what you meant immediately. He embraced you strongly.

"(Y/n)... You-you should have told me..." JJ said, his voice cracking slightly. 

"I-... I just... I c-couldn't..." You could hardly speak. 

"I-I know, baby, I know... I understand..."

"I-I'm sorry I never told you," You said. 

"It's okay, baby, I get it. Don't worry about it. I know now. And I wanna help you."

"Th-there's more..." You said, pulling away, wiping your tears. 

"O-okay," JJ said. You saw that he had tears in his eyes as well. 

"I-I don't even know where to start," you said. 

"If it makes a difference, I won't be mad," JJ said. This did help a little. You decided to tell him everything.
