JC smiled. "It's no problem. I owe you, and anyway, I don't work today."

Justin nodded. "So, are you and Aubrey dating?"

JC laughed. "Nope. She's like my best friend. That's it." he said, his blue eyes shining. "Why? You think she's cute?"

Justin smiled. "Um, yeah, but that's not all."

"What do you mean?" JC asked curiously.

"I used to date her in high school. But I don't think she remembers me." JC smiled widely.

"Are you serious? That's crazy. It's a small world." Suddenly, he pulled off the road, and slammed on the brakes.

"YOU'RE JUSTIN?!" Justin nodded nervously. "Oh, she remembers you, alright!" JC continued. "She's still in love with you. She won't admit it, but I can see it. Oh my gosh. I can't even believe this." His eyes widened suddenly. "And Ryan..."

"Huh?" Justin asked.

"Um, nothing." JC began, "so why did you break up with her?"

Justin looked down. "I was immature. And an idiot. I was so in love with her, and I still am. But it scared me. I've been thinking about her ever since." Justin stopped, realizing how much he was opening himself up to a man he barely knew, but it felt good to let everything out.

"Last night, I saw her in this club. I fell in love all over again. But as usual, I was an idiot, and got drunk. I ended up hooking up with this girl. That's how I ended up next door to you."

"AUBREY!" JC shouted, running in without knocking. He found her crying in the living room. He stopped, in shock. Sitting down next to her, he hugged her. "What is it babe?"

She sniffed, and fought back the tears. "Do you know who that was? That's JUSTIN, Ryan's dad!"

JC nodded, "I figured it out, as I was driving him home. Aubrey, he loves you. He said he only broke up with you because he was in love, and it scared him. He said he misses you, and he thought you didn't remember him."

Aubrey glared at JC. "I saw him leave the club with some chick last night. He can't care about me too much."

"He was drunk." JC said. "He's really mad it happened."

Aubrey looked up. "Oh my gosh. Did you tell him Ryan is his?"

JC shook his head. "No, I figured you should tell him."

Aubrey nodded. "Thanks, but I don't see that happening, he obviously didn't want to talk to me much."
