i live in proverty. My mom has a job, working her ass off while her curent husband lies around, while i try to help his and her's four new kids. i'm seveenteen. i graduated school early cause i knew mom was going to need help. owen is 13, darralynn is 8, blake is 4 and haylie is two. we live in a three bedroom house. my mom's name is jace and she does everything that she can to help them. when i got the mail today i got a letter from my dad. i never knew my dad. when mom was sixteen she got pregnant and moved. I never had contact with him. the gist of the letter was him telling me he always tried to find me, and that he wants me to come live with him. he included pictures of his house, pool and husky, mia. he told me i could have whatever i wanted. of course when i told mom this she freaked. "no, your family needs you." she said. "yeah, i know, but maybe i can just go visit and get a job. if i get a good job then i can move you guys." i said. that sentence is how i landed myself in the air port. "listen to me. don't let them make you feel guilty. keep up with your grades, ok?" i told owen. he nodded and i hugged him. "i'm coming back for you," i said, hugging daralynn. "no more tears love." i told her holding back mine. it felt like a ball of guilt was stuck in my throat but i knew i had to do this. she nodded. "hey. remember stay strong. make me proud." i said. she smiled, and we hugged again. blake hugged my moms leg. i bent down to him. his face was tear shreaked. "don't leave me," he said. "i'm going to get money. i can take you to disneyland, and get you ice cream." i said. i brushed back his hair. "would you like that?" i asked. he nodded. "i'm going to call you every single night." i told him. he laughed, and hugged me. i kissed his forehead. i hugged haylie and then turned to my mom. "stay strong i'm coming back. i know this is the right thing." i said. "i know baby." she said, touching my cheek. she pulled me in for a hug. i waved goodbye, and walked to the terminal. "bye," joe said. "get a job." i said, not turning back. i met my dad in the luage claim. "you look like your aunt, i'm going to have some big problems." he said. he smiled, and pulled me into a hug. "is this all you have?" he asked. i nodded. "we'll have to change that." he said. i set my things on my bed and sat down. the sky was an agry gray and all i should think of is if this was the right thing. i grabed a phone and opened the baywindow, letting in the sent of rain, which always calmed me. i sat on the bench and called my mom. "no!" she said. "hello?" she asked. "hey." i said. "haylie, no. blake leave her alone." she said. "let me talk to blake." i said. "it's your sister." she said. i heard a shuffling noise and blake came on. "zoey?" he asked. "i'm here." i said. "when are you coming home?" he asked. i laughed. "it's been three hours." i said. "i miss you." he said. "i'm working on the money." i told him. "if you want ice cream you have to be a good boy for mommy. do you think you can do that, fo me?" i said. "yes zoey." he said. "good." i said. "owen's picking on me." he said. "put owen on the phone." i said. whatever he's told you it's a lie zoey." he said. "so you aren't picking on him?" i asked. "ok maybe a little." he said. "owen, come on i'm counting on you. if you help me out here, i'll get you something." i said. "a guitar?" he asked. "you got it." i said. "with an amp?" he asked.

"hey, your jake's kid right?" he asked. "yep." i said. "i'm such a fan of his work, that's when i heard i'll be working with him, i got a little excited." he said. i laughed. "i'm josh." he said. "zoey." i said. "can i take you to dinner tuesday night?" he asked. not three guys. but of course i said. "sure, looking forward to it." he smiled. "got to get back to work." he said. "right." i said. he smiled and turned. oh my god, is he cute. after the filming i went home. there was a pacage on the floor. i picked it up. i went to my room and opened it. it was a single rose. a rose for the girl that can make me feel only the way you do, weitt. i put it with the other roses. "hello?" i asked. "honey, i'm having car trouble can you take the kids to school?" she asked. "on my way." i said. "perfect, i love you." she said. "i love you too mom." i said, hanging up. i looked at the clock 6. i did my morning rutine and drove to get the kids. i hopped to see jonah but he wasn't there. i dropped the kids off and went back to my moms. i slept in daralynn's bed and then ate lunch. after that i watched a movie with mom. after the movie i picked up the kids. while helping them, with their homework the bell rang. i opened the door. "hey." i said, to jonah. he took his arm from behind his back, and gave me a boque of large lolly pops. i laughed, and took them. he smiled and i hugged him. "ready?" he asked. "yes." i said. he opened his door, and i got in. the park we went to had a large oak tree, where we decided to eat. after twenty minutes we where having a blast. "i really like you." he said, looking down. he grabed my hand. i looked up to say something, but joanah pressed his lips to mine. a deep firey feeling filled my core, and went through my body. i scooted closer and kised him back. a soccer ball, landed in the middle of us making us split. "ready to go?" he asked. "yeah." i said. we drove home. "that was fun." i said. he smiled and pulled me in for a kiss. "alright, break it up, the kids are gonna see." my mom said. we all laughed. he kissed me once, and then walked to his house. he truned back, and smiled. i waved and he went inside. "so, you like him huh." my mom said. " i think a little too much." i said. "you could never like someone too much." she said. she kissed my forehead. "see you next time." she said. i drove home. weitt was sitting on the porch. he came up to me and kissed me. i had the same feeling but it was more powerfull, with jonah. "welcome, home." he said. "wow." i said. he pulled me back to him. his hand went down my back, and rested on my butt. "ahem." my dad said, now standing at the door. "goodnigh, Mr. hendrics." weitt said. he left our yard and when home. "dinner's ready." he said. i ate a salad, and went to bed. the next morning i slept in. "hey you okay?" dad asked. "yeah why?" i asked. "your sleeping late." he said. "i'm fine." i said. i changed into some strech pants and a swetshirt, and walked mia. "zoey." wiett said. he jogged up to me, his breath a huff of white. "hey." he said, kissing me. as we walked mia he sliped his hand into mine. it didn't feel right, like the way joanah's did. he kissed me again and i went inside. don't get me wrong i had a thing for him, but i like joanah. i took a shower and got ready. i know i'm comparing him to joanah, but when you have the perfect kiss, and perfect guy, it's hard not to. i got ready and went to dinner with josh. "what's going on here?" joanah asked. "who are you?" josh asked. "i'm her boyfriend." he said. my what now? "where just eating dinner." i said. "then why are you dressed like that?" he asked. he turned and left. i followed him. he got into his car and drove away. "what's wrong?" josh asked. "i think i just went through my first heart break." i said. i got into my car. i drove home. i cryed myself to sleep. i didn't know he was my boyfriend if i did i would of never went on that date, and i would never talk to weitt. the next morning i walked mia. "zoey this is my girlfriend, jade." weitt said. "jade you can do so much better than him. trust me." i said. i went back home. now i know how joanah feels. i have to make this right. i got into my car and drove to joanahs house. "what?" he asked. "i came here to tell you i didn't know we where dating you never said. i went to dinner with josh, just to hang out with him, my dad's filming his movie." i said. "cute pjs." he said. i pulled my jaket closed. "i didn't know." i said. i got into my car. "zoey." he said. i drove away. i went back to sleep. an hour after crying someone knocked on my door. i looked up to see joanah. he smiled, and crawled into my bed. he held me close, and kissed my forehead. "i'm sorry." i said. "shh." she said. he kissed my forehead again. "get dressed i'm taking you out." he said. "i don't deserve you." i said. he cumped my face. "i deseve you." he said. "i know you. and i love you." he said. "you do?" i asked. "everytime i'm not with with you i feel sad, like you took part of me with you. i can get your laugh out of my head. is that wierd?" he said. i smiled.
