Jay's POV

It's been a few days now since me and my son moved into the safehouse. I had been on the phone yesterday and today was my son's birthday.

I really didn't know what he would want for his birthday or even if he likes his birthday. I put my head in my hands and let out a sigh.

Max's POV

Today was my my birthday and if it wasn't for one event on this day I would probably forget about it. I put on some big clothes and made my way out into the kitchen/lounge room. I saw my dad had his head in his hands "everything alright dad?" I made my way to the coffee maker "I don't know what to get you for your birthday son!" He laid down on the couch "well if it makes you feel any better I haven't celebrated my birthday since my dad's death". As soon as I said that he sat up "that doesn't make me feel better!" I nodded my head "then what would you like to do for your birthday " I let out a sigh "I would love just not to do anything for it seems I haven't had a birthday ". I put down dad's cup on the coffee table and took a seat in the arm chair "I don't get why you still didn't just you know leave?" I lowered my head and sighed "if I had left they would have just found me and I would pay the price like every other time " My hands started to shack talking about that place. I a hand on my leg so I lifted it up to see dad looking at me "you're safe now".

Jay's POV

I hope my son understood that now "come on I've got to go into work today so you have to come in". My son put on the puppy dog eyes "but it's my birthday!" He let out a sigh and grabbed a jacket "do you want to go out for dinner tonight?" He just said no thanks and hopped into my truck.

When we got to the bull pin my son went into the break room. That's when I saw Hailey looking at me "what?" She just rolled her eyes at me and walked away from me.

Max's POV

I was laying on the couch in the break room when some guy came in "hey?" I gave him a warm smile before I sat up so he could sit on the couch. He stretched out his arm "I'm Antonio Dawson and you are?" I was about to shack his hand when Hank came in "hey Max, Antonio we got to roll out!"

A few hours later

I had just gotten back to the bullpin to be pulled into someone's arm's. When they pulled away I could see it was dad and he had been crying "where were you?!" I was shaking "I was outt wiiith Trudy" I was so scared I quickly walked into the break room and closed the door and pulled the blinds close.

Jay's POV

I just saw the way Max was shaking and he didn't seem ok. I walked over to the door and knocked on it but no answer, so I tried again but no answer. I opened the door so I could just get in and then I closed it. I look to see Max plashing water on his face and he looked like hell. I walked up to him a hand on his shoulder and he jumped but when he saw it was my he got scared. I pulled him into a hug and sat my head on top of his "I'm sorry son I was just so worried about you and thought the worst had happened to you". I placed a kiss on his head and I could tell he's crying. We were just standing there until I had to go back to work and he could do some school work.

Max's POV

I was sitting on the couch with my ear pods in listening to music and doing some drawing on my tablet. That's when I feel someone tap on my leg, so I looked up at the person to see it was dad. I took out my ear pods and followed him because they said they needed my help. I was looking at the board to see it had picture of teens on it "we need you to go undercover so we can get an in on this case. Can you do it for us?" I was looking around the room to see all eyes on me, I was finding it hard to breathe "I need a minute". I walked out the back and was taking in sharp breathes "you ok Max?" I look at Antonio "no I'm not ok!" I was walking back and forth "how could Jay think it's a good idea to send me into this mess, I mean look at that board of dead teens on it!" I put my hands on the back of my head

I can't believe I'm doing this. I'm sitting in the park waiting for a man to show up and take me. I was playing with my necklace when I hear a "hello sweetie". I felt him kiss my neck and a cold shiver went down my spine.

Jay's POV

The tracker has been moving but Max hasn't said the code word yet. I was getting nervous "what's his code word?" I look at Antonio "his code word is you motherfucker" "why motherfucker?" I turned my head back to Antonio "because it can be used in any type of conversation".

Max's POV

I had just woken up and my hands and legs where tied to the frame of a bed. That's when I see a man walk in "this doesn't look like Hawaii?" He just was shacking his head "there's no more Hawaii for you". He was trying to get my pants off "don't touch me you sick motherfucker!"
