Polaris was glad to hear that Toni thought he could trust her, but she stayed quiet until he sent his niece back inside. She listened to the argument painfully, immediately glaring at Shawn as he told Toni he wasn't changing. When Toni turned his attention back to her, however, she looked up at him, blushing. "Polaris. Polaris Z." She reluctantly stood up and held her hand out, forcing a small smile. "It's nice to be meeting you. I'm...sorry it had to be like this though." She glanced back at Shawn, contemplating about leaving as soon as Toni was done with them.

Shawn just ignored the both of them, not bothering to even look at them right now, at least until they were finished talking to each other. Toni shook Polaris' hand gratefully, shrugging slightly at her last comment then. "Eh, its fine. Not like we haven't argued like this before." he chuckled lightly with a slight shrug in his shoulders. "Besides," he started saying, purposely talking louder for Shawn to know he was talking more to him than Polaris, "All I'm trying to do is get him to forget about his past, and focus on what could be his future." he practically yelled over to Shawn, giving usual scoff response back, with Shawn still not looking at either of them, now on his feet with his arms crossed and back turned to them. Toni rolled his eyes. "I'm sorry if Shawn's ever forced you into doing something you don't want to. He tends to do that to a lot of people...let alone get into fights with." he shrugged.

Polaris couldn't help but giggle as Toni practically yelled over her shoulder to Shawn, who she could tell was acting like a stubborn toddler. She glanced back at him, then looked back at Toni. Scoffing lightly she mumbled,"I know about the fighting part..." She bit her lip, rubbing the back of her neck. "Uhm, well Shawn didn't really... force me to do anything." She looked down. Geezus, I sound like a total slut! she mentally kicked herself, thinking of a way to coat it over. "I wanted to see Duke and it sort of..." She blushed, realizing she was making it worse on herself. "I-I was going to be leaving anyway, my mom probably needs me to help with the dogs." She bit her lip, trying to find any possible way out of this.

Toni nodded, listening to what Polaris seemed to be stuttering out, chuckling a bit towards the end, holding up his hand to stop her. "I get it. Shawn does that a lot. You know, pulls in whatever girl he seems to like into him." Toni shrugged, Shawn however, with his back still turned, scoffed. "Please. She's a slut." he shook his head, a smirk across his lips, and though neither of them could see it, they could hear it from how he was talking.

Polaris shrugged, glad Toni was working on her side a little, not laughing out at her blubbery mess. It was what Shawn said next that made her turn around and gasp, making her completely shut down. How could he just say that, right in front of Toni? What was worse was that she could tell he didn't care if he hurt her or not. She was so embarrassed that she rushed right around Toni, and out the front door with tears streaking her cheeks. "That's the last I deal with him." She muttered as she ran back home.

Toni's eyes widening as well, his arms dropping back to his sides, his mouth literally just dropped right as Polaris gasped herself. Watching her run out of their house like that, looking like there were tears attached as well, Toni just looked back at Shawn with a stern and disappointed look on his face. "Happy now?" he said coldly to the purple-haired kid, who still had his back turned, although no one could see his face. His face did slowly turn from a smirk, to more of a disappointed frown himself.
Toni ended up chasing after Polaris, out the door and down the streets, while Shawn just stood there, his arms at his sides, and his eyes down at the ground, grumbling to himself. "Damn it. I did it again." he groaned. "Fuck!"
Meanwhile, Toni was out of the house chasing down Polaris calling after her, until he finally caught up to her, tugging lightly on her arm to slow her down. "Polaris, wait. I'm sorry for what Shawn just did, and I promise, I will have a stern talking to him even if he cusses me out about it." he sighed, "I just wanted to make sure you'll be okay." he said to her, his eyes looking apologetically, showing he was up for any sort of hugs she needed. He was used to this sort of thing after all.

Polaris had stopped crying almost as soon as she hit the road. She wasn't much for sobbing and all that was left in place of the tears was anger and hatred. Millions of things ran through her head as she took each road carefully back to her house, using the non busy ones so as not to run into anybody. She was almost back at her house when she started hearing Toni call after her, then his hand on her. She gasped, but stopped, looking at him until she finally heard what he was saying. She started shaking her head furiously, pulling her arm from his grasp. "No talking to him won't do anything. He lied to me about everything just to..." She shook her head again, about to say 'get into my pants' but she didn't want Toni starting to believe Shawn. "He's an asshole and I never should've listened to anything of his in the first place. GAH how could I have been so stupid!" She gripped her hair, shaking her head again. She felt her phone vibrate in her pocket, hopefully Nada wanting to know where she was; though she probably knew now since they were standing at the end of her block, Polaris yelling at a man she didn't even know.

Toni furrowed his eyes, listening to Polaris. He could tell where she was going with this. And he didn't blame her. At least, not as much as he blamed Shawn for his stupidity. "Look, you're not stupid. Shawn is just..." he also shook his head slightly trying to figure out right words to use. Then he just used what Polaris had used. "He is an asshole. And if you really don't want to see or hear from him again...I'll make sure he never does." he reassured her, hoping that would make her feel better even if it was just a little. "I'll take his phone and erase every message, and number that he has from you, just so you don't have to deal with him, if that's really what you want."

Polaris shook her head, not even listening to him anymore. "Look I don't care what you do to him, I don't care anymore." She stepped back from him, sighing. She didn't know what she wanted from Shawn anymore besides nothing. "Polaris!" Caris was standing on the sidewalk in front of the house with her hands on her hips, looking from Polaris to Toni, confused. Polaris sighed. "That's my...mom. I need to go." But Caris was already walking towards them. "What's going on here? Rissy, I could hear you all the way from the back." Caris looked at Toni, confused. "Who's this?" Polaris looked down. "This is Mr. Toni. Shawn's dad."

Toni opened his mouth to say something, but got interrupted by someone else calling for Polaris. He watched as the figure, known as Polaris' mother, already started walking up to them before Polaris could even start back home herself. "Hello." Toni greeted, extending his hand out to Caris. "I was just talking to Polaris about some drama she ran away from a minute ago. Apparently, my son sort of, said some things he shouldn't of. And, I just wanted to make sure Polaris was going to be okay." he explained in the most sincere and apologetic way as if saying he was going to give Shawn a talking to no matter what he does to him.

Caris nodded, taking Toni's hand and shaking it quickly. "I'm Caris." She turned back to Polaris with a slight smile on her face. "So you've started up something again huh?" She folded her arms. "Did not." Polaris mumbled, glancing at her. Caris scoffed lightly, giving her a short wink, then turning back to Toni. "I'm sorry that you came all the way down for her, but thank you. Is this the Shawn we were talking to earlier?" Polaris nodded. "Let's just go." She mumbled to Caris, taking. Step towards the house. "What, you're just going to leave the man on the streets? We can at least offer him a ride back home." "Go ahead." Polaris said, starting to walk away. Caris sighed. "I'm sorry, Mr. Toni. Would you like a ride home so you wont have to walk back?"

Toni chuckled lightly at the conversation Caris was holding with her daughter, and was just about to turn the other way to let them be, when he was called back to them. "Oh, no its fine. It's not too far away, don't worry." he told her, waving goodbye to Caris before waving to Polaris, calling out, "Take care, Polaris." And he walked his way back to the house to have a good, long talk to Shawn, whether he wanted it or not. Most likely not though.

Caris nodded. "Alright, take care. Good luck!" She turned back and jogged a little to catch up with Polaris. "Well say goodbye." She took her arm, grinning lightly. Polaris sighed. "Thanks Mr. Toni." She said, probably not even audible to the man walking away. "So~ are you gunna tell Nadi?" Polaris sighed again. "I don't want to but probably, yeah." They walked back around to the back of the house where they lived, Polaris sulking the entire way.
