Justin P.O.V.

I woke up a little cranky because I slept alone last night. I got up out of the bed and went downstairs to get something to drink.

I could barely sleep last night because I kept thinking of Bre and her new job opportunity. Was I being selfish?

After drinking my orange juice I went upstairs to shower and get dressed. Bre was still sleep so I thought I'd take a walk to clear my mind.

I grabbed my keys and shut the door on my way out. I don't know where I was going, but I didn't care.

I would love to move to New York with Bre, but it's not safe for me. I just don't want her to leave me again. I want to be apart of her dream with her.

Being selfish isn't gonna help the matter but I can't help it. I can't see her leave. I'm not saying for her to not follow her dreams... well... maybe I am. I don't know.

" Do you have spare change? " I heard someone say snapping me out of my thoughts. I turned around to see a homeless man.

" No, not on m- " I started but he cut me off.

" Justin? " He said stepping closer. I took a step back.

" Uhh....  "

" Son, I- " He began.

Son? " Wait... D-Dad? "

" Son it's me. Your dad. I haven't seen you in so long. How have you been? " He smiled showing his not so clean teeth.

I was mad. Extremely mad. What makes him think he can just ask me how I'm doing and just forget what he did? Now that he's on the street he wants to take an interest in me?

" I'm doing fine. " I rolled my eyes.

" I missed you. How's your mom? " He asked.

" Look, don't ask about my fucking mom. " I snapped. " You don't deserve to ask about her. "

My dad's face changed from smiley to shocked. Shocked that I'd ever talk to him like this.

" Son I'm sorry. I know what I did was wrong. " He said with sympathy.

I soon realized how bad of shape he in. He has dirty teeth, an beard that needed grooming, and old clothes.

" Take my number. Please. " He said.

He can afford a phone?

I sighed. " What is it? " I pulled out my IPhone. He told me his number and I saved it in my phone.

" Call me okay? " He said.

I just gave him a disgusted look before walking away. I think I should just head home.

Once I got home from my 10-15 minute walk I slammed the door. Bre was sitting on the couch dressed and watching T.V.

" Hey babe. " She smiled. Well she's in a better mood then I expected.

" I... I saw my dad. " I told her and her face was shocked.

" Really? Oh my God that's so awesome! " She cheered.

" No it's not. He's a fucking asshole. He left me and my mom, I haven't seen him since the age of one. He's poor and living on the streets, now he wants to take an interest in me? He gave me his number. " I scoffed.

" What? He's homeless? Justin, you should invite him here with us. " She suggested.

" Did you not just here what I said? No. " I folded my arms across my chest.

" I did, but Jay you have to forgive him. You can't just hold a grudge. "

" He's not coming here. "

" Justin, call him. " She said and took a step closer to me, touching my arm. " Please, for me? "

I gave in. " Fine, I'll call him. "

I took out my phone giving him a call. After two rings he finally answered. " Hello? "

" Yeah, it's me. Where are you now? " I asked.

" Same place I was when you left. "

" Do you.... uh, wanna come over to my place? " I asked nervously. Not about his decision, I just new this would turn out bad.

" Yes! " He said a little to excited.

" Okay, I'll be there in a few. " I said and hung up.

I tossed my phone on the couch and kissed Bre on the cheek. " I'll be back. "
