Skylar's POV
I close my register before walking to the back and closing out, I got off early today and I'm honestly grateful for it because I have to head to Crenshaw
"Hey Sky, you leaving already" Wyatt asks as he walks over to clock in
"Yea, gotta head to Crenshaw real quick though, by the way...we are limited on ice" I say and he nods, I take my apron off before grabbing my bag and jogging outside to get to the bus
I hop on and see some of the same people from before on causing me to shift uncomfortably, I sit down and sigh in relief, my feet hurt so damn bad
"You know what you did was really good for that girl" I hear beside me to see an older lady sitting there smiling at me
"Oh uh thank you....just how he media sees it that way" I say and she smiles
"Well I hope your parents are proud, I definitely am" She says nicely and I smile awkwardly and just nod
I hope they are too...but I don't think so for some reason
My stop comes and I wave bye to the woman and the bus driver before hopping off and sighing as I look at my old street corner
I smile at the old beat up house in delight, I miss my mother bringing me over here, I walk up tor the door and knock
I wait for a bit when it suddenly opens to reveal Jordan standing there looking just as shocked as me
"Skylar...what are you doing here" Jordan says confused
"I could say the same....where's my grandfather" I say and he lets me in, I see my grandfather sitting in his usual chair causing me to smile
"Hey old man...how you been" I say as I walk in, my grandfather smiles and gets up before pulling me in for a tight hug
"Ahh my granddaughter....ugh I've missed you" He says as he laughs happily and I smile and pull away
"I've missed you too.....you've met Jordan I see" I retort causing him to give me a look and I give one back
"Yes I have, him and his sister....I've also been told finally that you moved in with your.....with Billy" He says and clench my jaw as Jordan looks at us both confused
"Yes I have....your know Th......my father and I aren't on good terms now" I say and my grandfather shakes his head
"I'm aware, I've talked to him for you but....I'll leave you and Jordan to talk" My grandfather says and I sigh as he walks his ass to his room
"So.....your father huh" I hear Jordan say causing me to turn to him and sigh as I clench my jaw and let out a frustrated sigh
"Yes....you know...your fathers brother" I say bitterly but not towards him
"You know....you must think I'm stupid right.....like I don't know you and my father are hiding something...that your suspicious" Jordan spits and I sigh heavily
"It's just an awkward situation ok, he hasn't been in my life and my father and him don't get along...he doesn't get along with most of his family as you can see" I say and Jordan scoffs
"So is that why your old team mate said that your dad took you in....or is that part of the awkward situation" He says causing me to freeze in my spot
Fuck, that's why he's been giving me dirty looks since the game
"He-he's a fool alright, just went by Baker for the sake of my...father" I say as I try to think on my feet but Jordan starts stalking towards me
"You....are a liar....how dare you come into our house and keep that secret while getting close to my mom....why not come clean huh!?" Jordan says angrily as we come face to face
