Zack's POV
in the living room with Jacob I looked at the kid, who was just in front of me. "Hey, little buddy, what's up?" I asked. He smiled back. "Nothing, sir. I was just wondering if you were not dead, then where were you?" I chuckled. Wow this kid is breathtaking. "Well I don't know how to answer that, kid." I said, Jacob gave me a slightly irritated look. "Stop calling me Kid! I have a name and it is Jacob"
I chuckled again "Okay Jacob. I guess you are a very smart kid so I will just put it in this way: it is a long story and I will tell you when you are older, okay?"
"Well sir, I think I understand. I hope to see you when I am older."
I laughed a bit. He was definitely starting to grow on me. "Hope to see you too, Jacob. Give me a High five."
Jacob high-fived me when Cody entered the room. Cody smiled as he saw the bond that Jacob and I were forming. "Jacob, it's time to go to sleep. It's late"
"Okay, Dad." Before leaving the room, Jacob turned to me. "It was a great chat, sir."
"You too, kid-I mean Jacob," I corrected myself as Jacob gave me a serious look. Then he left, leaving Cody and I alone in the living room.
"Great chat huh?" Cody asked.
"That kid is impressive, man" I answered with a smile.
"Yeah I know." Cody said with pride in his voice. His expression then became serious. "Well I was talking to Bailey and she said that you can stay for the night."
"Thanks, man and thank Bailey for me. So I guess I'm sleeping on the couch?"
"Yep, sorry. We don't have much room."
Bailey walked into the room with a blanket and a pillow "Well, Zack, this is for you," Bailey said, giving me the blanket and the pillow.
"Thanks, Bailey." They were about to leave the room when I asked, "Umm guys ? Where is the bathroom?"
"It's in the hallway," Cody said, pointing.
"Thanks", I said and they left. While I was walking down the hallway I couldn't stop staring at the pictures that were on the wall.
There were pictures of Bailey when she was pregnant with one of the kids, Cody by her side. Then I saw the other picture of London and Bailey and another of Maya, Bailey, London and Cody...and another of me and London at a party making funny faces. I laughed a little about that, then I remembered my girlfriend again. I missed her with all my heart.
I felt bad for what I did to her. I should call her, because she had texted me like more than a hundred times, saying that she is worried about me and that she needs me. She also called me more that 10 time today, but I did not pick up the phone. I felt like the biggest ** in the world.
I closed the bathroom door behind me. I looked at myself in the mirror. For the first time I noticed that my face was paler than usual, and there were very dark circles under my eyes. Hopefully nobody noticed. My girlfriend entered my thoughts again. Should I call her?
Yes I should call her. I pulled out my cell out of my pocket and punched her number.
It rang and rang. My heart sank when the call went to her voicemail. I decided to at least leave her a message so that she knew that I was okay. "Miss you, Babe. I hope you can forgive me for not answering. I will be by your place tomorrow."
When I hung up the phone I realized why she didn't pick up the phone. It was midnight. I didn't realize it was so late. I really needed to get some sleep. I left the bathroom and back to the living room. I settled on the couch. My eyes closed as I continued to think about our past.
