*savannah's pov*
after jack left the room last night, i fell back asleep again. my body felt drained but at the same time free. i get to go home today, which is good because i hate feeling trapped in here. julia stopped by this morning to let me know that Andy wants me to be well rested before coming back to work.
they said because the launch of the bikini line is this friday, i wouldn't appear in it this time. which made me feel sad about it because it would have been my first appearance since being signed with them. Andy said i would gladly be on the next one. but besides work, officer torres just got here.
"Hello savannah, how are you feeling?" he asked quietly. jack was still sleeping on the couch beside me. "i'm feeling better, just wanting to be in my own bed." i chuckled. he smiled and nodded. "well i do have some good news for you. i think your boyfriend will actually want to hear this too." he says.
i get out the bed slowly and tap jacks shoulder softly until he woke up. "babe, officer torres has some news for us." i said as i walked back to the hospital bed. jack stretched and sat beside me.
"okay, based of what happened yesterday Julian is now arrested and going through an investigation. since you applied for a permanent restraining order it was automatically granted based of what the judge read. also because he had you at knife point they sentenced him to 50+ years in prison. he has several charges of harassment, stalking, assault and abuse from not only you but plenty of other girls." he says.
i was in total shock. i wasn't the only one he did this to. i can't believe it. jack noticed i was upset so he hugged me tightly and rubbed my back. "as for now, you are protected and will never see him again. they have transported him to a special facility since he is too dangerous." officer torres said.
"thank you so much for your help and patience with me. i truly don't know what to say." i said softly. "don't worry savannah just be glad you get live your life the way you want it. you're surrounded by so many people who care about you." he said smiling big. i thanked him once again before he left.
"baby there's something i have to tell you." jack said. i looked at him with a confused face. "what's up." i said getting up slowly. luckily nicole brought me some clothes to change into. so i started to change while i waited for jack to say something. he looked at me and sighed, "your dad is here." he said.
i looked at him and laughed. "savanah.. he's been here all night." jack said. there's no way. i've never met this man, never seen what he's looked like because i never cared. "what.. there's no way.." i said. he sighed and hugged me. i wonder if he saw my mom, why is he still here?
"nicole took your mom home last night because she didn't want her to see him." jack says. i nodded. shortly after the nurse came in to give me discharge papers and explained how often to take ibuprofen if my headache continues.
we soon walked out the room where everyone was, they left last night to sleep but came back this morning. as nicole came running to me i see a man stand up who looked somewhat like me. i hugged nicole tightly, "ignore him, we don't have to go through this right now." she whispered in my ear.
i greeted everyone and we all headed out the hospital. he was still following behind. i don't want anything to do with him so i had to make that clear to him. i stopped walking until i bumped into him.
he looked at me with sad eyes, "savannah.." he says softly as he examen my face. "you have no right to be here." i said sternly. i noticed jack came up behind me and everyone was watching.
"i don't even know who you are? i don't know your name? i know nothing about you! so there's no need for you to be here." i said. he looked at me with a blank face. "i spent 20 years regretting my decision, regretting leaving you behind. i was a teenager who was scared of becoming a father. i tried to stay but it was overwhelming. savannah im sorry!" he says.
"my mother was a teenager! she never doubted being a mother. she raised me alone while going to college to further her career! i know she felt overwhelmed but she never showed it because she loved being a mother! i don't feel sorry for you at all. sorry not sorry you became a deadbeat dad at a young age." i said.
"please savannah i want to get to know you and make up for everything i missed." he begged. all these years i felt sad because i never had a dad, i felt like i missed out on lots of dad and daughter things but that feeling slowly went away when i grew up.
"i just can't let you in my life." i said. i finally walked away, jack held my hand as we walked to the car. once we got in the car it was just silent. jack had his hand on my thigh the whole ride home.
as we were pulling up in the driveway, the memories started coming back. i hate that i feel this way. jack noticed i tensed up but softly rubbed my leg. he comes and opens my door and i slowly get out. we walked to the door and was greeted by my mom.
tears started flowing when i saw her, she hugged me tightly. a hug i waited for from her. "oh my baby" she cried. "i love you so much mom. thank you for everything you do for me." i said. she hugged tighter, nicole walked over and joined in on the hug.
it made use laugh because we'd always do this when we were younger. "thank you jack for being by her side." my mom said. "always will be." he said smiling. she looked at the boys, "and you too boys i'm beyond grateful that she has you all." she says as we formed a group hug.
after we all settled down, i realized the boys where still here and not at rehearsals. "guys you have to go rehearsals?" i said. they all shook there head. "guys we'll be okay. please don't miss out on practice." i said. jack looked at the boys and they both nodded.
"we'll be back home by 6. call if you need anything." he says kissing my forehead. i nodded and smiled. they all started to grab there things and headed out. "it's a girls day!" my mom said.
nicole and i laughed, we were all comfortable on the couch. we spent the next few hours catching up, my mom was proud of me for not letting him in my life. nicole was also telling my mom about how her job and how much she loves it. it was nice to just catch up.
"girls, i've been thinking lately.. and i think it's best i move down here. i just don't want to be back home worried something could happen then i wouldn't get there till later. i want to be here for you girls." she said. it brought smiles to both nicole and i.
"i also talked to your mom nicole, she plans to move down here as well." she smiled. nicole smiled big, surprisingly nicole and i both had single moms. she doesn't get along with her dad after he cheated on her mom. "we'll be fully moved down here by end of october." my mom said.
"mom this is amazing! wait.. but what about work?" i asked. she nods, "i've had my fair share of conversations with people down here and i've decided to also build another dentistry here. i've kept this in for so long..." she said. i gasped. "wait so you've already started the process?" i asked.
she nodded, "they are almost done building it. so it'll be up and running soon." she smiled. "finally i can schedule a dentist appointment." nicole joked. we all laughed, "this is amazing news!!" i said.
"don't worry, when the boys go on tour mama bear is here." she said laughing.
life was slowly starting to get better for me, lots of changes happening. i'm beyond happy that i get to see my mom more. i just need to focus on my relationship now with jack. after everything that happened i don't want him to think i don't appreciate him. when reality im extremely blessed to have him my life.
