                *Shawn's POV*

        "Wait, so, you really did learn guitar just from watching YouTube?" Arson asked me with a smile on her face. She finally let me take her out. "Yeah, it was actually surprisingly easy. I got the hang of it fast and now it's like a second-nature," I reply. I was really trying to impress her. She smiled at me and looked into my eyes every time I talked. It felt..I don't know...right.

"I have a question," I told her hesitantly. 

"Okay, ask away."

"Who was that man yelling at you when you got to your house on Wednesday?" I asked quickly.

She just looked at me, shocked. "You followed me home? Why would you do that? You have no right to know where I live without my consent!" she screamed as she ran out of the resturant.

"Arson, wait come back!" I yelled across the room at her, trying to catch up. We were finally outside and she ran across the street to my car. "Take me home," she demanded. "Now, Shawn, since you already know where I live." We got in the car and drove off.

"I only asked because I care about you. I don't want you getting hurt," I tell her trying to reassure her. "Why won't you tell me who he is?"

"There are just things you don't know. You won't understand," she says to me.

                *Arson's POV*

        I can't belive I just told Shawn the same thing my dad said to me when he left. God, why do I have to push everyone out. Especially the one's I care for.

"My foster father."

"What did you say," he questioned.

"You heard me; he's my foster father," I said back holding in my tears.

"You were adopted?"

"Only to be a slave. He took me in just so I could clean the house, do his laundry, and hand him beers as he sits on his lazy ass!" Now I started screaming in anger. "I've always had to take care of someone all my life. I took care of my messed up mom and younger brother, God knows where he is now." My brother and I were close. We did everything together and it stung me everytime I realize I never said bye.

Shawn made a sharp turn.

"Come on, you're staying at my house tonight. One night away from that drunkard."

"Shawn I can't....I never told him I was on a date or even out..he thinks I'm still locked up in my room!"
