Caitlin POV

I'm taking my so called Dad home today. I'm really excited but yet really nervous of what mom is gonna think. She isn't the most understanding person in the world and I don't want her to mess things up if this REALLY  is our dad. Jake has met him before and so have I, but I was a baby. He's never met Lexi because we adopted her but somehow he knew about her. Maybe my mom told him somehow like text or email or whatever the hell parents use to contact. We finally get to my house which wasn't that far away from Shawn's. Ugh fuck him, he's such a asshole.

(A/N> excuse my language xD)

I get out my keys and unlock the door.

"Nice house." My dad says.

"Thanks, I guess."

We entered the house and he sat on the couch.

"Did you want anything to drink?" I ask going to the fridge.

"Just water." he answers and I toss him one.

I sat down next to him feeling awkward as hell. I mean this is my dad, I don't know what dads talk about. I want to make a conversation but I don't know what about! This is all so confusing to me. So I just start off asking random questions.

"So how long have you been in Canada?" I ask awkwardly.

"Ever since I left your mother." he sighs looking at the floor.

"Why did you leave?" I'm shaking, so badly.

"I thought I wasn't enough for her and she deserved better than me so.." he continued on how he thought he wasn't good enough for her and all the reasons why. He was cut off by someone opening the front door.

"I'll be right back." I stand and go see who it is. It's my family, all three of them. They all shoot me with questions and I just had to stop them cause they were being annoying.

"OKAY! Guys, shut up! I have a surprise." I say leading them to the living room. My moms jaw dropped while my siblings looked confused as to who this is.

"Jake, this is our dad." I look Jake in the eyes. "And I'm not even joking." He just stares at me, he doesn't do anything. He kinda has that look on his face where he wants to be excited but looks kinda angry. He pulls me aside from everyone.

"Caitlin, what were you thinking? He could be a drug dealer, a criminal. How do you know he's good? How do you kno-" Jake started but I cut him off.

"Jake, I see the good in him. Which is weird cause I see nothing in anyone unless it's ignorance." He just stares at me. "Look, I know this is a lot for you to take in. it was for me to, but we have to give him a chance." I looked back at my dad.

He just sighs, "Fine. But if he does something bad to any of us, " He points at me, Lexi and himself. "This is on you."

"Fine with me." I say and walk away

 Moments have pasted and my mom and now official dad are making conversation. I finally have a father figure around. I would say welcome home dad, but I don't know if my mom is allowing him to stay...
