Emma's POV:

I get out of the shower in only a towel wrapped around me, and another one on my head drying my hair. I walk to my room and lay on my bed. Victoria's picking Noah up in a few hours, so I have time. I plug my phone into my speaker and play Hamilton. Yes, I know I'm nerdy, but oh well. As I'm singing along to 'My Shot,' the doorbell rings. Huh, Tory's here early. I walk downstairs, not caring that I'm only wrapped in a towel, because she's a girl too. I swing the door open as I'm looking at my phone.

"Noah's just upstairs." I say, checking my Instagram.

"Maybe this isn't the best time...." Zach says.

"Oh my god! I'm so sorry be right back." I exclaim wide-eyed and with red cheeks. I close the door and run upstairs to put clothes on.

§§§

I open the door slowly, only to see Zach leaning on the wall outside.

"Hi.." I cough.

"Oh uh. Hey." He says nervously.

"W-Why are you here?" I ask.

"I need to talk to you." Zach says in a serious tone.

"Oh, come in. May I ask what about?"

"Well actually, it's about Jack and Daniel." He says.

"Like, my boyfriend and my friend?" I reassure.

"No. The beer." He says sarcastically. "Of course your boyfriend and your friend!"

"What about them?"

"Well....they kind of hate each other. They are constantly fighting and yelling and are at each other's throats all day. It gets really annoying. You need to come back and help us make them friends again." Zach explains.

"Why are they fighting?" I ask.

"You see, that's kind of why I'm here..." He chuckles nervously.

"What?" I ask.

"Daniel....um....the thing is..."

"Spit it out Zach!"

"Daniel kinda maybe sorta thinks you're in love with Jack...sorta maybe."

"WHAT?!" I yell.

"When he caught you guys hugging before you left, he just said that you looked in love. Or some bs like that. And he told me that when Jack said he was over you, you looked sad. I just need to know if it's true."

"No! Of course it's not true! I can't believe Daniel would actually think that!"

"That's why we need you to come home." Zach says.

"I would, but Logan wants me to stay home. He's coming back later and wants to 'reconnect' or something." I say.

"Please? You can tell Logan it's an emergency?"  He begs.

"I cant. I really really want to, but I just cant." I say.

"Fine. But I'm coming back tomorrow." He says.

"Zach....I can't tomorrow either. I'm going to the movies with Liam. I can this weekend though."

"What? You're busy the whole week? Em, I don't think this can wait....Daniels convinced." He looks at me with his puppy eyes.

"Zach, don't do that to me."-He widens his eyes and puckers his bottom lip-"Zachary Dean Herron!"-He steps closer and with the same face, furrows his eyebrows-"Zach....fine. I'll come Thursday. Is that good?" I ask. He nods his head and smiles.

§§§

"Hey dad!" I say just as he walks through the door.

"Hey Em. I was thinking we could go to dinner tonight. My dad is coming, so you'll get to meet him for the first time." He says and puts some mail on the island.

"What? I...should I get dressed up? I've never met him before..." I say nervously.

"Em, it's alright. No need to get nervous." He chuckles and hugs me.

"Okay...." I say and go upstairs to get ready.

§§§

We just got to the restaurant and we are waiting on Greg...or...my grandpa.

"Dad!" Logan yells and does a bro hug.

"Hey son. So...would you like to introduce me?" He asks, looking at me.

"Oh yeah, dad, this is my daughter, Emma." He says.

"Hello. It's nice to meet you." I greet.

"Ah, you don't gotta talk all fancy. So, are you as rambunctious as your dad?" He asks spontaneously.

"Not really." I chuckle.

"Are you sure? I heard you survived suici-"

"Dad."-Logan cuts him off-"Can I talk to you for a sec?" They both get up and Logan leads him over near the bathrooms.

"Hi, what can I get you?" The waiter asks.

"Oh um, may I get a water please. And I don't know what these two want." I say.

"Oh okay. Just tell me when you're ready." He says and walks away. I look over to Logan and they look like they're in a pretty deep discussion. I walk over there to ask them what they want to drink, but end up listening in on their conversation.

"Dad, look. I know you're trying to be nice, and you don't know how. I mean, it's kind of hard to maintain a good conversation with a girl who nearly killed herself, I know that. But, Emma has a lot of problems. Something isn't right in her head. I'm going to get her help. But until then, just don't mention the suicide thing." He says. My heart nearly stops. Problems? I knew I had some minor flaws, and yes, I did almost kill myself but that was out of hurt. I'm not psychotic...I can't believe he actually said that...

Out of nowhere I start to cry. Logan stops talking and looks where I am.

"Oh shit." He whispers under his breath.

"Problems? Not right in my head? What am I to you? A mistake? Did you never really want me in the first place? Yeah, I tried to kill myself. But did you ever stop and wonder, 'Hey, maybe she did that because I was NEVER THERE?' I was all alone. And you weren't there. I'm not blaming it on you. But if you had maybe been there for me...I wouldn't have gone through hell." I cry and start to walk away. Everyone is looking at me in horror, like I just killed 5 people.

"Emma wait!" He yells.

"No. Never again. Never again will I call you my dad. I may be your daughter. But there's no way in hell you're my father. Bye Logan." I sob and walk out the doors.
