Single Dad Life

(Jack's POV)

"Hey, good morning buddy." I said as Anthony ran down the stairs to get his breakfast.

"Morning dad!" He happily said.

Anthony was such morning person, unlike me. Where's his mom? You might think. Well, she said she 'couldn't handle' a baby when Anthony was born. It was either giving away the baby or letting me raise him on my own.

So that's what I did, raising him. And with my moms help of course.

Anthony's mom, aka my ex, was being so ridiculous and I really hope that she had changed after five years. The worst part is that she never even contacted one of us.

She never asked for Anthony. Whenever he asked for his mom, I would usually say that she's far away. "Want some bacon, Tony?" I called him either Anthony or Tony.

"Yeah!" He sat down on the chair and waited for his breakfast.

"What do you want to do today?" I asked while placing his bacon on his plate.

"Hmm, I don't know. Just spend time with you." I smiled at him and messed with his hair. "Oh! Oh! Maybe we can visit grandma!"

I hadn't seen my parents in a while and since Anthony basically saw my mom as his mom, he wanted to see her a lot. "Buddy, Omaha is so far away from LA!" He whined and pouted.

"But I want to see grandma and grandpa."

"We'll go next month." I stuck out my pinky as he intertwined his tiny finger with mine. "I promise."

"I won't forget it!" He assured.

"I'm sure you won't, big man." I watched him eat his breakfast. I could never get enough of him.

"Let's go to the fair!" I suddenly said.

"Yeah! Can JJ come with us?" His relationship with Johnson was amazing.

"Of course! And Sammy can come too! It'll be a real men day." I said while high-fiving him.

"Hey buddy!" Johnson said as Tony ran over to him. They met and gave each other a fist-box. He did the same with Sam.

We talked for a bit and then walked through the fair. It had such a good vibe. I loved being here. I tilted Anthony up and put him on my shoulders, so I was sure I wouldn't loose him.

"Dad! I want to go there!" He pointed to the bumping cars.

"Let's go, buddy!" We walked over there and waited for our turn. The people said it was best to not let Anthony go, but I couldn't give a shit. He went no matter what.

After a while it was our turn. Sam and Johnson got in one car as Anthony and I got out own. I buckled him up. "Hold tight, Tony. It's going to be a bumpy ride." I joked. "And we're also going to play around with Sam and JJ a bit." I winked at him.

Anthony started laughing. The bell rang, it was out sign to start. Since there was a kid in the car, I couldn't drive too fast. My target were Sam and Nate. "Hold tight!" I yelled at Anthony.

Before I knew it we bumped into Sam and Johnson. They yelled at us, telling us to watch out. Anthony stuck his tongue out as we continued driving. We got hit a couple of times.

Of course Anthony wasn't scared, every time we hit a car he started laughing and cheering. After a couple of minutes we got hit hard as shit. I looked at the car who hit us and I noticed there was a very familiar face in there.

It was Y/N's sister. She looked at me with widened eyes as she continued to look at Anthony with even more fright in her eyes. "Jack?" She quickly yelled before her partner took off again.
