Forever Mine

Chapter 38

"What are you doing here? Where is Ella? Does Ryan know you're here? How did you get out anyways?"

"I came to apologize, Ella is sleeping, Ryan doesn't know I'm here and when Liam came storming in Ryan never locked the door. They are drinking away their problems. I just overheard that you guys got in a fight."

"Yeah. What's new?" I shrug.

"I'm so sorry about Christmas Avery. I didn't mean what I said. Any of it. Thank you for trying to get us out of here. It wasn't your fault. None of this is. The reason I was so upset was because of the baby. I've been keeping something to myself for a bit. When Ryan blurted out to everyone we were pregnant I had only been pregnant for a month. I didn't want another baby. I begged Ryan. But of course it didn't matter what I had wanted. Well I told him it was too early to tell everyone. What if something happened to the baby. He just yelled at me. On Christmas Eve I had a miscarriage. I was too afraid to tell Ryan. Too afraid he would yell at me or just keep trying until we got pregnant again. I was heartbroken knowing that I had a miscarriage. I know it was Ryan's baby but still just the thought of loosing a little baby broke me. That's why I was so heartbroken on Christmas. Everyone congratulating us. I knew it wasn't really happening though. After that I laid in bed for days. Ryan would yell at me to get over whatever was going on. He didn't care I was upset. Or depressed for that matter. I still haven't told him yet. I haven't got the guts yet. I thought of maybe waiting. For Dr. Evans to figure it out. I can pretend to not have known. God Avery I'm so sorry. I've been a terrible mother and such a terrible friend to you." She sobs into my arms.

I let her cry while I pat her back.

The front door swings open and Liam, Ryan and Ella appear.

"Ella why don't you go up and see the nursery?" Liam grins.

"Ok!" She giggles.

She runs up the stairs and Ryan looks straight at Emma with an evil face.

"What the FUCK!" He screams.
"You thought you could just leave and not tell me?! You know you can't do that! What the fuck Emma!" He screams.

Emma begins to cry even more.

"Leave her alone!" I yell.
"You were the one who left the door open! It's not her fault!" I yell at Ryan.

His clenches his fists and grits his teeth.

"Yeah you should know you're the queen of trying to escape. Where has that gotten you Avery? Haven't got that far huh? We are always going to be one step ahead of you. You can think you're going to outsmart us all you want but you won't." Ryan growls.

I charge at him with my fist clenched. Ready to punch him. Liam grabs me and pulls me back.

"Easy there tiger." He warns.
"Let me go!" I try to wiggle free from his grip.

He just holds me tighter. I'm filled with rage. I could punch them both right now.

Ryan forcefully grabs Emma's hand and pulls her out to the deck to talk. I walk away and attempt to go up the stairs.

"Where do you think you're going?" Liam spits.
"Upstairs. That's what you wanted didn't you?" I reply back with sass.

"You're really fucking testing me today Av. Get down here. We need to talk. Now." He spits.

"Not in the mood." I begin to walk back upstairs.

"Wasn't a choice." He pulls my arm and practically drags me down the steps.

He pulls me over to the couch and forces me to sit.

"We're you planning on attempting to escape when you go to the hospital?"

I felt my heart stop.

"No Liam." I roll my eyes.

I was doing everything in me trying not to panic.

"I'm serious Avery. Don't lie to me." He snaps.
"No Liam. I'm not escaping or going to attempt to. Even if I did you would find me anyways. How could I escape with two babies anyways? I'll wait for the cops to find you. Don't worry they will." I snarl.

"Get over yourself Avery. They aren't coming for you. You're stuck with me. Get used to it and start acting like my wife." He snaps.

"Maybe if you would stop fucking drinking!" I scream at him.

"You left me at home by myself to go over to Ryan's and drink?! Seriously? What the fuck!" I scream.

"I know, I know, I know! I'm sorry ok!? You just get me angry when you don't listen. I thought today was going to be a good day and then you had to start a fight! I'm so tired of not being happy together. Tired of never being good enough for you! Just please let me go." I plead.

Liam sighs.

"I give up Avery. I'm done trying. You'll come to terms with it eventually. I'm not going to force you anymore. You're going to have to start loving me eventually. He walks away.

Emma and Ryan come back in. Ryan his holding her hand and smiling at her. I guess they figured things out. Emma called for Ella and we said our goodbyes. Liam closed the door shut and locked it. He didn't even look at me. He went right into his office and closed the door.

We were alone again. Just the two of us. But this time he wasn't talking to me. I felt alone. God when would this end?

Liam's pov:
I hate giving her the silent treatment, but it was the only thing that seemed to work. We would go on for a few days like this then eventually find our rhythm. I just needed to hold myself to it. Stop trying. Let her come to me. Make her realize what she's missing. We were so close to being in love I could feel it. I knew I wasn't crazy. I know that she felt love for me in some type of way. Just wait until Wren and Liliah came. Then we would be a perfect happy family. She told me she wasn't going to escape. She seemed like she was finally coming to terms with things.... in a way. Just give it time Liam. Give her a few days. She will realize what's she is missing.
