Sam: mom can I stay with you?
Josh: no Sam please I'm sorry
You: what even happened?
Josh: I- I don't know
You: I wasn't talking to you sober up right now
Sam: I tripped on one of dads things
You: what thing was it?
Sam: I don't want get in trouble
You: you won't I promise
Sam points and you see Josh's brand new crate of Prime in the middle of the room
You: why is that there?
Josh is drinking glass after glass of water to sober up

You: NOW IM FUCKING TALKING TO YOU!
Josh: that's not even mine it's Bryce's he sent them here
You: oh right
Josh: I'm so sorry
You: I'm taking Sam with me
Josh: why?
You: cause I can and I know he's mine
Josh's: I dont even know what's going on
You: let me refresh your memory...
You questioned if I had cheated on you and Sam wasn't your child
You said that you don't care if we don't get married

Josh; I'm so sorry
You: the worst thing is you were drunk and everyone knows your real thoughts come out when your drunk
Josh: I didn't mean anything I said
You: but you think it and that's the problem
Josh: don't leave me alone
You: you have work tomorrow though and I do too
Josh: since when do you work?


You been wanting to get back in the music industry for a while now creating and producing music for the world to hear and see
You had been working on some lyrics

(Flowers by Lauren Spencer-Smith)

ook me over to your house to meet your family
Introduce me to them, saying that you'd marry me
Then you'd look me in the eye and say, "It's just a joke"
Then you'd kiss me and I'd smile, did you even know?
When you'd say that kinda thing, I'd be excited
Got me hoping maybe one day you would mean it
Always thought I'd only make a fool of someone else
Now you've only gone and made me make one of myself
I guess that flowers aren't just used for big apologies
I guess I should've been more conscious how you spoke to me
'Cause when we'd fight, you'd give me space and not communicate
And for a while I thought that's what I should appreciate
Maybe I was holding onto what I thought you were
But when you think too hard, eventually it starts to hurt
The version of you in my head, now I know wasn't true
Young people fall for the wrong people, guess my one was you
I was getting any flight so we could make it work
You'd ignore me, coulda told me you were seeing her
Kinda hate myself for justifying your mistakes
Took a minute but I learned that shit the hard way
Who are you to tell me I can't be heartbroken?
Babe, you had the chance, the door for you was open
If it's what you need to tell yourself to sleep at night
Pretend I haven't found a man who finally treats me right
I guess that flowers aren't just used for big apologies
I guess I should've been more conscious how you spoke to me
'Cause when we'd fight, you'd give me space and not communicate
And for a while I thought that's what I should appreciate
Maybe I was holding onto what I thought you were
But when you think too hard, eventually it starts to hurt
The version of you in my head, now I know wasn't true
Young people fall for the wrong people, guess my one was you
If there's anything I've learned, it's you should watch yourself
If it's hurting you, then leave and go and get some help

It was based on josh and how your relationship was looking right now.




You: for a while now? Since you don't want to be the primary bread winner in this family.
Josh: I meant like I give almost the money for Sam and that
You: cool (!). Sam go pack a bag
He goes up to his room: I'll come back in like 4 or 5 days
Josh: ok
You: you ok?
Josh: no
You: I'm sorry but this is what feels like it needs to happen right now
Josh: nah I understand
You: ok
Sam comes downstairs and you leave putting his bag in the trunk

You: are you ok Sam?
Sam: yeah
You: ok
You drive to your parents house and the cops have cleared off
You take Sam inside: we're back!
Madison: SAMMM!
Sam: nana!
Madison hugs him: I missed you
Sam: I missed you too can I stay here?
Madison looks at you: what happened to your dad?
Sam: I don't know? I think he was drunk but I'm not sure
You nod at her: but Sam go put your bag in my room.
He runs up the stairs and screams for his grandad.
You smile: I was wondering if you would be able to take me to the music booth tomorrow to record some music
Madison: I don't have any music ready
