Andi's P.O.V

I woke the next morning and instantly checked my phone looking for any text messages. A couple from Emma, and my other 'friends' but non from Phillip. I sighed knowing that I would have received nothing. I've never woke up to any good morning text. Not one. Well maybe the first day we've dated, but that's really it. I got up hooking my phone back on the charger and hopping to my shower. I took a nice shower and hopped out. I changed into some shorts a sweater and some converse. I took some of Phillip's clothes to give to Jax. I grabbed my phone and went out of my room going to the kitchen. I walked past Jax's room and saw him sleeping like a little baby. Woah. He's really cute when he's asleep. I thought. Wait I have a boyfriend. And plus I don't even know Jax like that. I didn't know Phillip like that either. Ugh. Sometimes, I just don't know why I'm dating the boy. I shook the thought out of my head and placed the clothes out on his bed.

I went to the kitchen and made some chocolate pancakes, bacon, eggs, grits, and omelets. I smiled at my work. I placed the food on Jax's plate and ate mine while chugging down a glass of milk. I waited for Jax to come back down. I played on my phone to kill the time. After beating my high score on some random game, Jax came down dressed.

"Good morning." I greeted him .

"Morning." He replied. My heart skipped a beat. His morning voice is sooo, Ugh.

"Uh. I made you some breakfast." I said gesturing to the plate. He nodded and smiled while sitting down to eat.

He ate the food as if it was his last meal.

"Woah Jax, Slow down."

He blushed and muttered a sorry.

"I'll make you some more, just slow down." I said going back to the pots and pans.

"Thank you Andi." I smiled at him and went back to cooking.

I went to the living room to clean up. After a couple of minutes he came over to where I was. He turned on the T.V and changed it to some random show. After thinking for a minute I got up and turned off the T.V. He gave me a confused look.

"I was kinda of watching that."

"You'll watch after we go shopping."

"Shopping. That's for girls." I scoffed as he turned the T.V back on.

"Well I don't think my boyfriend will be okay when he finds out I was giving you his clothes." I said crossing my arms. I don't think it would be okay if he knew that I knew you. Or living with you.

He got a little tensed, but signed putting on his shoes. I turned the T.V off and went outside to my car.

When we got there we went to different stores for boys. We were actually having fun. After going to the tenth store, We stopped by the food court.

I went to order some food. Before I could get to the line, I was stopped by my friends; Emma, Katie, and Maddie.

"Oh hey guys." I said hoping that they didn't see Jax. Don't get me wrong. Jax is amazing, but I don't want them to say anything rude.

"Hey Andi." Emma exclaimed with a hair flip.

"Hey. What are you guys doing here?" I asked raising an eyebrow.

"Uh. Shopping." Maddie answered in a 'duh' voice.

"Oh. And what were you doing with that." Katie said referring to Jax. Shit.

"Oh. You know. Just hanging out."

"I can see that but why." Maddie questioned.

"Because he's cool." I said trying to defend him.

"Cool? He's not even up to the lower class. How could you call him cool?" Katie said waving her hand being all dramatic

In my defense, Jax was very cute. Just because he wasn't popular doesn't mean that I can't hang out with him. He's sweet, funny, and smart. I haven't known him for that long and I can already say that.

"One look at you two being together could kill your reputation, Andi." Emma stated taking a sip of her drink. I couldn't believe she could say that. We've been friends since like first grade. I thought she would have my back. Well I guess not.

"You can't tell me who to be friends with." I gritted my teeth.

"Whatever. Just don't let Phillip catch you." Maddie stated as they walked away. I huffed and turned back only to see that Jax was gone. I groaned and went back to the table.

Jax's P.O.V

I heard enough. I knew that Andi and her friends were talking about me so I left. I went far away from the food court to the fountain. I sat at a bench that was close to it. I stared around as I saw a boy who was around the age of eight and his mom. They walked into a shoe store. His mom was trying to put on some sandals for him but he refused. I silently laughed and turned to see a another boy around four or five running with his mom right behind him. I then saw a boy who was begging his mom for some ice cream while she was on the phone. She brought him some and he slammed it into his face enjoying the chocolaty taste. I then say what looked like a new born baby dressed in blue being held up in the air. No, not like the Lion King. But, with his mom and dad giving him small little kisses.

A tear slid out of my eyes and down my cheek. I wished my mom never left me. She never said why she left, she just told me not to hate her when she did. She told me that she'll be back and that we can have our happy family back but she never did. She left when I was about seven. I'm sixteen now and she never returned. Nine whole years without my mother by my side.

Ever since she left my day got fired from his job as a professional doctor. Now he's an owner of some gas station. He came back home drunk. He'd hit me. Bad enough to the part where I can't even go to school. He then yelled at me for no apparent reason and blames me for everything. But was it really me? What could a seven year old boy do to make his mother leave? We used to be a big happy family full of laughs, smile, and joy. We'd sit at the table and eat our dinner. We would go outside and play soccer. Then at night my mom and dad would read me a story.

But, then again nothing good lasts forever. Especially for the good people.

And there you have it my good people. I'm sorry it took a while but yeah. It's here. I don't think it's much but I hope you like it. Thank you all for your encouraging words for me. I will try to update as soon and possible!
