Daniel's POV

The only thing that has been on mind is Ali. I really don't know how it all started, but I can't keep my mind off of her. I mean it's pretty easy to like someone like Alisyn, she's kind, sweet, and easy going. Plus, she knows my story, I really don't tell people about my personal life but I guess she's an exception.

I smirk at my thoughts. The fact I let my guard down kept me wondering, oh well. I run my fingers through my hair and I closed my eyes.

"Daniel!" My dad yelled.

There goes time to myself.

I ran down the stairs and headed into the den where I found him and Ethan around the desktop.

"Yeah dad?" I asked.

"I think Jason's getting closer." He says.

"What kind of game is this? Hide and seek?" I say in annoyed tone.

"We aren't hiding from him and his crew, I mean pops did know that what he was getting himself into, right?" Ethan asked glaring at 'pops'.

"Look calm down, he's just pissed that I had a better life than him." Dad explains

"And stole his money." Ethan adds.

"Dad this is ridiculous, just give the man his money and call it a damn day." I say.

"Why did you take it in the first place?" Ethan asks.

"I needed it." My dad simply says.

"Are you fucking serious? Now him and his people are after your sorry ass, wait no, now that they found out you have a family and shit they're after all of us! You're just fucking lucky I ain't afraid to stab a bitch!" I yell.

"Calm do-" Ethan cut him off.

"Let me get this straight, you were always the favorite child and he resented you for that. He grew successful before you did, and money made him happy. Out of the blue you took millions of it away from him, now he's furious and out to get you and all of us, right?" Ethan asks/states.

"Well yeah, he's apart of this gang-" I cut him off.

"What the fuck were you thinking?" I yell, I know my face is starting to get red.

"I understand you guys are angry but, this gang is no joke. They ruined and probably killed many lives; and I guess I was being a bit stupid.

"Bitch ass." I state.

"Come on Daniel, let's get some fresh air." Ethan's says leading me to the front door.

We went to get some food. I was really pissed, I never thought I would call my dad a 'bitch ass' but I guess I did.

As we heading out the place, some guy wanted to start with us.

"Didn't you two jump that poor guy earlier in the year?" The guy asked.

"Yeah, so what?" Ethan asks.

"He was asking for it anyways." I add.

"Well that was my friend and your gonna pay for it." He challenged.

Ugh I'm not in the right mood to be messed with right now.

Ethan and I looked at each other than at the guy.

"Do you want to start something that you can't finish?" Ethan asked/yelled.

"Please! Please don't hurt my boyfriend! He has mental issues." His who I guess girlfriend yelled.

"Well tell him not to start shit next time." I say grabbing Ethan's arm and walking away.

"Oh shit! The party's tonight!" He exclaimed.

Shit.

Ali's POV

Tonight's the party. I'm not that super excited, but Grace is.

Today I had to hear Kaylee's mom brag about how well Kaylee's doing now, I keep telling my mom to cut Kaylee's mom off; but she says 'they're going through a rough time now' bullshit.

We wore the same clothes we had on for school; yeah we're not getting dolled up for this.

When we arrived, it was crowded, as expected. Grace got us some sodas, then she hit the dance floor. I wasn't feeling it so I went to back porch and sat on the back step.

"Hey Ali." A familiar voice said.

I looked up and saw Danny.

"Hey Danny, when did you get here?" I asked.

"5 minutes ago, this type of party isn't my thing." He said sitting down beside me.

"Haha, that makes two of us." I agreed.

I love how he's blunt and gets to the point.

"Yeah." He said.

"Is there something wrong? What happened?" I asked curiously.

"Ugh, my dad knew all this time who this 'group of people' are." He explains.

"Wow, that's messed up. Who are they? And what are they about?" I asked.

"It's my uncle Jason and his gang, but they're not just any gang; they ruined so many people's lives." He explained.

"Wow, so did your dad took the money?" I asked.

"Yeah."

"Damn."

"But I'm not going to a bitch ass about it." He states.

It's nice that he opened up to me about his life, it's just nice to know that he's going through similar shit as I am or was.
