Salem's POV
"You know Ryan???" Devland asked. "Yea. Do you?" I asked. He just nodded. I chuckled and asked "he's my cousin. How do you know him?" "He's my best friend" Devland said kind of sadly. "Wait a damn minute. Were you the friend he was always talking about? He said you guys kissed a few times and that he had like major crush on you?" I asked. He just blushed and nodded. Holy shit. Why am I soo fucking stupid? I could've known him for way longer than I did. He looked down and asked nervously "So I'm assuming Ryan told you all about my backstory?" "Oh no he just talked about how much he liked you" I said. He just nodded and started drawing.

After a while his I'm assuming dad told him to put his sketchbook up so it wouldn't get dirty. Which Devland said he would finish it later and put it up. The waiter was putting the food down. No wonder he had to put his stuff up. Why am I being soo stupid today? Wait a minute. I haven't eaten anything today. Oh this food is probably gonna taste like the best food I've ever eaten in my whole fucking life.

After we ate I had to leave. I didn't want to go to my dad's house but hey my mum is about to get custody of me. Even though that should've happened a long time ago. I got into my truck and I finally realized something. I didn't know where I was. Oh god. Ok calm down. It's alright. I could just drive back from the way I came but I don't remember the turns I took. Why did I think it would be a good idea to come in a city I never been to? Especially by myself? What the fuck is wrong with me? I wish I never came here. But I had to get away from my dad. Damn it.

I didn't realize I was pulling my phone out. I called my mom and thankfully she picked up. "Hey baby. What's going on? Did your dad hurt you? I'll fucking kill him" She said. "No mom. I don't know where I am and I'm kind of scared" I said. "Ok honey. Do you see any street signs?" She asked. "Um no. But I'm by a lot of fancy hotels" I said. "Damn it. Do you happen to see a really big white house with a big gate in front of it? It most likely has a pool in front of it" She said. "Um yea. I see it. Do you know where I am?" I asked. "Yes. Go to the front of that house and don't move until I get there. I bringing you back home with me. I love you baby" she said. "Ok mom. I love you too" I said. And with that I drove to the front of the house and turned my truck off.

Time skip~

I've been waiting for about 30 minutes now. I'm still kind of scared but this seems like a rich neighborhood. But something can still happen. I decided to step out of my truck to get some fresh air. Keep in mind I have a 1995 Ford Lightning so being around all these nice cars makes me feel weird. I mean everyone has all these fancy ass new cars and then there's me with the beaten up old car. I leaned against it and played some music on my phone. I played it a little low because I didn't want to disturb anyone. Also because I was listening to some good old heavy metal.

After a few minutes I heard someone ask "hey are you lost or something?" "Um no" I said to the person walking from the big house. I backed up slightly. "Hey it's alright if you are. How old are you?" The man asked. "Uh 21" I said. I wasn't about to tell this guy my actual age. He stepped closer and said "that's impossible. You barely even look..." He stopped mid sentence and looked at me. He put his hand over his mouth. "Oh my god" he said. "What? Fuck is my nose bleeding?" I asked. I usually have problems with that. "No... no it's not anything like that. You're fine. Just... nothing" he said.

Ok I'm kind of getting scared where the fuck is my mommy.

"By any chance is your mom's name Allyson?" The man suddenly asked. "Uh no" I said quickly. That's is my mom's name but I'm not telling that to is random guy. "Bullshit. You look just like her. I know those eyes anywhere. Are you sure? I don't know if she's changed but she has red hair and those eyes are literally her. They're that green color. Just like yours" he said. Ok I'm really scared. That's exactly what my mom looks like. What if he's been stalking us? What if he wants to hurt my mom? I can't live without my mom.

Those thoughts seriously scared me. I felt myself breathing faster. The man suddenly said "I'm soo sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. Listen there's no good way to put this. You'll think I'm a pedophile or something like that. But I know your mom. We used to date" "um ok. Awesome wow" I said and backed up more. I'm seriously scared. I kind of felt like crying but I couldn't. Hey just because I'm 16 doesn't mean I can't cry. "Question is your name Levi?" He asked. "Um that's my middle name. My name is Salem" I said. The man just smiled softly and nodded.

Fuck why did I tell him my name?!?!

"Oh my god Salem are you ok?!?!" I heard my mom's loving voice say. "Mommy?" Was the first thing I could mutter out. My mom hugged me as tight as she could. I hugged her back. "I'm alright mom" I whispered. I felt her kiss my head. That's always makes me feel loved.

"Allyson is that you? I knew that kid looked familiar" the man said. "Oh hey Luis" my mom said. Oh they do know each other. "I guess you finally met him" my mom said slightly pointing to me. He nodded. "Uh would you like to come inside or do you guys have to be somewhere?" He asked. My mom sighed and said "well I came here because my son got lost. And it's kind of late" "oh alright. Well maybe I'll see you around another time" he said. My mom just smiled and nodded.

I have soo many fucking questions going through my head right now.

Time skip to when they got home~

We eventually got home. I drove my truck and my mom drove her car. We went inside and my mom told me to go shower so I did. But I have soo many questions. Who was that guy? How does he know my mom? How did he know my middle name? Soo many questions. I finished up showering and put on some comfy clothes. I went downstairs and my mom was cleaning. "Alright mom. You only clean that much when you're stressed. What's wrong?" I asked. "Nothings wrong. I'm not stressing out" she said. "Who was that guy then?" I asked. She stopped and grabbed my hand. She brought me over to the couch. We sat down and she put her hand on my knee.

"Salem honey that was your real dad"
