Sorry I haven't updated this story in awhile. I've been pretty busy with work and stuff like that.

Chapter 14: Changes Part 2

Don knocks on Jesse's door and walks in.

"What do you want know?" Jesse asked him.

"I want to apologize for the way I've been acting lately. This whole thing between me and Tom has got to stop before this weekends game." Don said to him.

"I've been telling you that for the past three days." Jesse told him.

"I should of been listening to you guys." Don then said to him.

"So, what are you going to do?" Jesse then asked him.

"I'm going to see if I can make things right with Tom." Don replied.

"Mom is still mad at you also." Jesse then said to him.

"I'll go to Tom's house after I made things right with your mother." Don told him.

Don leaves Jesse's room and goes downstairs.

"Hi Baby." Don said to Christine.

"Baby? You haven't called me that since James was born." Christine told him.

"I know I've been a jerk this last few days and this thing with Tom has gotten out of hand." Don then said to her.

"Are trying to ask me to forgive you?" Christine then asked him.

"Yes, that's actually what I'm trying to do." Don replied.

"Then say it. Say those two words." Chrsitine told him.

"You know I have trouble saying those two words." Don then told her.

"Say it or I'll never forgive you." Christin then told him.

"I'm sorry." Don apologized.

Christine kisses Don on the lips.

"Does that mean you forgive me?" Don then asked her.

"Yeah, it does." Christine smiled.

"When I get home from the Bakers me and you are going to reconnect if you know what I mean." Don told her.

Don goes to the Baker house and can't knock on the door or ring the doorbell. He's about to leave when Jake opens the door.

"Hey Mr. Calenti." Jake said to him.

"Hey Jake." Don replied.

"You're here to see my Dad aren't you?" Jake then asked him.

"Yeah." Don replied.

Jake invites him in.

"Dad, Mr. Calenti's here!" Jake yelled upstairs to Tom.

"Thanks Jake." Don said to him.

"No problem." Jake replied as he went into the livingroom.

Tom comes down the stairs.

"Tom, we need to talk." Don said to him.

"We have nothing more to say to each other." Tom said to him.

"Tom, we need to put this whole feud behind us. What happen between us in Midland and in college is in the past. I want to leave that feud in Midland." Don told him.

"Don, we tried this before." Tom replied.

"But, noone apologized for starting it." Don then said to him.

"That's because I didn't start it." Tom then told him.

"I didn't start it either." Don told him.

"We're back at square one." Tom said to him.

"Do you even remember why we started feuding?" Don asked him.

"I can't say that I do." Tom replied.

"I can't remember either. It was such a long time ago." Don said to him.

They just stand there for a few minutes not saying anything.

"Let's just say it was stupid and just leave it at that." Don then said to him.

"Fine." Tom said as him and Don shoke hands.

Don leaves and goes back home.

"What happened?" Christine asked him.

"Me and Tom finally put that feud behind us because we couldn't remember who started it." Don replied.

"Old age?" Christine laughed.

"I guess so." Don then laughed.

They start to make out on the couch and go to their room.

The next day David is just sitting in his room because he's suspended from school. He goes outside to get a change of scenery from his room. When he walks out there he sees Jake in the Baker yard. He goes to go back inside.

"David, I'm sorry." jake said to him.

David stops in his tracks.

"What was that?" David asked as he walked towards the fence.

"I'm sorry." Jake repeated.

"I'm the one who should be saying sorry. I gave you that fat lip." David told him.

"And I gave you that black eye." Jake then told him.

"I'm sorry too." David then apologized.

Jake hops over the fence to hang with David.
