Jakes POV
I pull into Erika's driveway
E- can you come in for a couple minutes
J- yeah
We get out and I grab her bag. She opens the door and we step in. We walk in the kitchen where we hear angel and dani
E- hey guys
An- how was it
E- good
An- Jake How was the drive
J- good just very long
Then we hear footsteps behind us. I look behind and there's a man standing there. He reaches his hand out and I shake his hand
?-David
J- Jake
D- hi Erika
E- hi
I get confused for a second but then realize it's angel's boyfriend. It's been a month since erikas meet him and I've never been here when he is here too. I look to Erika and see that she's really tried
J- were going to head upstairs it was nice meeting you
I grab Erika's hand and we go upstairs.
J- do you want me to help you unpack
E- I'll do it later
J- you sure?
E- yeah
I put her bag down in the corner
J- I'll see you at school tomorrow
E- can we not bring up what happened on break
J- wasn't planning to
E- text me when you get home
J- I will
I pull her into a hug and I kiss her
J- I love you
E- I love you too
I leave her room and run downstairs. As I'm about to leave I hear my name. So I go into the kitchen
An- did everything go well up there
J- yeah why
An- because she didn't seem herself
J- we just had a couple late nights that's it
An- you sure
J- yeah I would never do anything to Erika. I don't know why you are asking though
Like where is this coming from
An- it's just my daughter never comes home like this
I hear footsteps and Erika appears beside me
J- K well I don't know what to tell you if she's tired she's tired
E- Jake just go
J- she thinks I did something to do
E- it's fine let's just go
She grabs my hand and brings me outside
J- what is she even talking about
E- it's David he's getting in her head
J- then he should leave-no you know what you should leave
E- Jake I'm not leaving everything is fine
J- see now he's in your head too
E- babe if something was wrong I would go to you immediately
I give her the really face
E- except the time I thought I was pregnant
J- if he does something to you, you are coming home with me
E- okay Jake
She pulls me into a hug
E- I love you
J- I love you too
I look to the door and see angel and David both looking
J- if they say anything to you I want to know
She starts to walk away
E- okay Jake just go home
J- I mean it
E- I mean it too
I get in my car and drive home. I grab my bag and head in
G- Jake?
J- yeah what's up
I head into the living room
G- how was everything up there
J- great it was really fun
G- I hope nothing bad happened
J- nothing everything went smooth
G- well why don't you head upstairs and get ready for school today
J- I will and thanks for everything
G- *smiles* no problem
I head upstairs and text Erika quickly before going in the shower. I get everything ready for tomorrow and I jump on my bed. It so weird not having Erika in my arms. Then I crash immediately.
Morning
I run into school and go to Erika's locker where I find her
J- hey bubs
E- hi
I pull her into a hug
J- you sleep good?
E- yeah but it was weird without you
J- I was feeling the same but sleeping in your own bed was good?
E- yeah
J- that's good...did your mom saying anything?
E- yeah but it was just what she asked you
J- you said everything was good, right?
E- of course I did I wasn't going to expose us
The bell rings and we go out different ways because of second semester. We have nothing together not even lunch which has been hard. Anyways I get in class and gone everything out as I stare at the ceiling
After school
I wait for erika by her car and soon I see her walking over. As she gets closer I open my arms and take her into a hug. I kiss her cheek multiple times before pulling back
J- how was your day
E- it was good
J- that's good
My phone rings and I pull it out of my pocket
J- give me a sec
I answer it
?- is this Jake speaking
J- yeah

J- oh hi how are you

J- that's perfect
C- he will come to your house at 1 o'clock if that's alright
J- that's perfect thank you so much
C- no problem hope to see you soon
J- yeah you too
I hang up and get excited. I put my emotions away and turn around to Erika.
E- who was that
J- my dad...I have to go but I'll see you tomorrow
E- yeah ok-
I kiss her quickly and run to my car. I get in and drive home. I get in my driveway and run up it into my house
J- dad!
G- in the kitchen
I run in
J- Cali College called me
