Dad knocked on the window and I unlocked  the door. He went to the trunk and put his things in it. He took out his phone and made a call, he then walked over to the drivers seat and got in. Hunter stood near the car, mummbeling something to him self.

"Got everything" He asked and looked over at me.

"So were just gonna leave out house?" I asked

"For now we are, until I sort things out with Hunter" He sighs

"Where are we going to stay?"

"Don't worry about that, I have a place."  He pulled out of the driveway and started to drive.

"Why would he do something like that to you?" I ask hugging a little giraffe plushy dad got me when I was born.

"He was just angry at me-"

"You did nothing wrong, he's complaining when your the one who let him stay at the house." I raise my voice. "Im sorry, I just don't want a douchebag treating you like that."

"Hey I'm fine, really." He turns and smiles at me and I smile back

"I thought he was your other half" I look up at him.

"So did I, but I guess I'll keep looking for the one ." He says

"Love you dad"

"Love you too sweetie. You should really get some rest, we have a long ride ahead."

"Alright" I say and snuggle into the giraffe and close my eyes

An hour or so later I woke up, It was around 11:30pm.

"We almost their?" I ask sleepily

"Yeah about five more minutes." dad says and I turn on the radio.

I flip through the station when I hear 'Hey There Delilah' , Plane White T's. I look over at dad and he smiles, his was out song. When it came out in 2005, he would always play it. I was five years old and it became out song.  We started to sing

Hey there Delilah      

What's it like in New York City?     

I sing

I'm a thousand miles away    

But girl, tonight you look so pretty    

Yes you do       

Times Square can't shine as bright as you   

I swear it's true

Dad sings after.

Soon we get to the end of the song. 

Hey there Delilah

You be good and don't you miss me

Two more years and you'll be done with school

And I'll be making history like I do

You'll know it's all because of you

We can do whatever we want to

Hey there Delilah here's to you

This one's for you

Dad sings

Oh it's what you do to me [x4]

What you do to me

I finish off.

We smile at each other and he start to pull up into a drive way. There was a man sitting on the porch steps. He got up and made his way to the car. Dad gets out of his car and the man hugs him. I get out of the car and get my things from the trunk when I get to them they were still hugging. They soon broke apart and dad turns towards me.

"Dawn, this is my friend Blake, were staying with him and his son for a little." dad says and I nod my head and smile.

"You probably don't remember me but I used to come by your house with my son all the time." Black says

"You guys were like best friend." my dad smiles

After a while of talking outside dad gets his things from the trunk and we start to walk up the porch stairs. Blake opens the door for us and we walk in.
