"Of course I was, I just wasn't sure if you wanted to." He mumbled, feeling his face heat slightly at his admitting. "Like I said, we don't have to. Clearly, if you're happy where you are, I won't take that from you."

(Would this be a new chapter?)

Brad was in his room, gathering his things to take with him when he moved out with Caroline, to their new apartment. Soft music was playing in his ears, through his ear buds as he did. Everything was almost all together, he just had a bit more to gather.

He had found himself humming, listening to the sound of the music in his ear. "Brad?" His father called softly, knocking on the door just the same. "You in there?" At the sound of his father's voice, he yanked the earbuds out of his ears, heading over to the door. "Yeah, just a sec."

Pulling the door open, he leaned against the door frame to block the view of his things from his father. "Everything alright?" Brad asked softly, twisting the string of the earbuds around his finger. "Yeah… everything… everything's fine." His father mumbled, giving Brad an odd look. "Just came to check on you." With that, Brad gave a soft smile. "I'm fine, thanks for asking."

Pushing off the door frame, he went to go back in his room, but was stopped by his father's hand on the door. "What are you doing?" He asked him, able to see into Brad's room now. Brad froze in place, trying to relax. "Just… gathering my thing…"

"Gathering your things? What on earth for?" His father asked, pushing pass him, into the room. "N-nothing!" Brad squeaked in response, trying to calm his nerves. "J-just trying to… you know." He replied vaguely, toeing the ground nervously.

(Are…are you asking me?)

"Where do you think you're going? You haven't even asked!" His father said rather sharply. "I…I was going to move into an apartment. With a friend." He mumbled, kicking back and forth. "A friend? Which one!?"

(I mean, she can. Though Emmy (Brad's sister) would probably want to talk to her, and keep her from going upstairs XD)

"C-Caroline?" Brad said weakly, crossing his arms over his chest. His father's jaw dropped, and he starred at his son in total disbelief. "No. You are not moving in with her." He said firmly, watching his son closely. "But Dad! I'm 18! Don't you think I can make my own choices?"

"No, I don't. You just got attacked the other day for being in a gang. That was your own choice and it was incredibly dumb!" His father yelled at him, pressing his index finger to Brad's chest. "I'm not going to have an idiot for a son."

At hearing the door, Emmy hopped up from the couch, running to get the door. "Hello?"

@Rainy_day_artist_classic group

"Caroline? Hi! How are you?" Emmy asked with a grin, ushering her inside the door. "What are you doing here?"

Brad starred at his father in the same disbelief, he had moments ago. "I'm not an idiot!" He cried out, hurt by the cold words. "I want to protect all of you, by getting out of the house. I want to protect Emmy. She got hurt, so I'm trying to fix this!"

@Rainy_day_artist_classic group

"Pick up Brad? Whatever for?" Emmy asked leading her over to the couch. "It'll be a miracle if you can get him out of his room, he's been in there all day."

With a heavy huff, his father stormed out of the room, into his own room. Thus leaving an upset Brad, standing there. "I don't need him. I never did." He sputtered, roughly finish packing.
