Now what? (T.C)

2.5

Vanessa's p.o.v.

I almost tripped on one of the boxes.

"Vanessa. It's alright. I'll talk to dad." Tea grabbed my arm.

"We need to get the kids out of here. I'm sure he'll yell and I can't calm them down." I started breathing quicker.

"Matt, can you and Hayes take them too the guest house?" Taylor asked.

"Sure. I'll keep them there." Matt nodded.

"Well I'll help you." Tea said to him.

She turned to me again.

"Look. We've got an hour and I'll figure something out alright? We won't get them taken away from us."

I was ready to cry. I couldn't do anything. I just had to wait and think of the horrible things my father could do.

"Forget the cribs as of now. We need to get these children out of here for a while. Come Matt, Haz." Tea marched out of the room.

"Vanessa, it's alright." Taylor wrapped his around me.

"Taylor! You don't understand what he could do to you!" I pushed him away from me.

"Hey, it's alright. Just keep calm babe." He tried to hug me again but I ran away.

"No! Just go away!" I went upstairs.

Tea's pov

Vanessa just ran from Taylor crying.

"Tea can yo"

"No. Let her do her thing. I ain't bugging her. We need a plan." I cut him off.

"Well I'm not sure! You call him dad for fuck sakes." Taylor raised his voice.

"Would you shut up! We don't need them waking up!" I pointed at the sleeping babies in their chairs.

"Sorry." Taylor said sheepishly.

"It's fine. But we need something quick." I started walking back and forth.

The boys sat on the couch and watched me.

"Got it!" I jumped.

"What?" Hayes asked.

"Tay, do you still have the thing?" I said through my teeth.

"Thing?" He asked.

"Yes. The thing you and I got."

"What?" He paused. "Oh! That thing? Yeah. It's upstairs in the drawer." Taylor remembered.

"Okay, I'm prob speaking for Hayes too. That are you two talking about?" Matt asked.

I giggled. He's so cute.

"You'll see. Taylor. Do you remember what you should say?" I asked.

"Yes ma'am. I memorized it." Taylor saluted.

"Good. I'll grab it and try get Vanessa to come down. Get those kids into the guest house." I said, walked to the steps.

"Love, you alright?" I said in a posh accent.

"What are you doing?" She didn't even look at me.

I walked over to the dresser where I knew it was.

"Just looking for my shirt." I dug through the bottom drawer.

"That's Taylor's dresser." She turned and looked at me.

"Well, it's Matt's shirt, but I took it and I think you put it away." I covered.

"So has dad showed up?"

"Found it." I ignored her.

"The shirt?"

"Oh uhm yeah and no he hasn't."

I grabbed a random shirt and tucked it inside.

"Oh, well when he comes, I'll come down and face him." She was holding back tears.

"Okay. I'll come and get you." I closed the drawer and stood up.

"Thank you Tea." She said weakly.

"Welcome." I left the room.

"Find it?" Taylor met me at the bottom of the stairs.

"Yes and here. Put this on." I threw the items at him.

"Matty dear, can you take them out to the guest house." I walked over to him.

"Sure thing babe, but it'll cost you a kiss." He smirked.

I smiled and kissed his lips softly.

Matt grabbed my face and pulled me in for more.

"Okay Matthew." I pushed off.

"Woah Matt, little uhm thirsty?" Taylor joked.

Matt smirked and winked at me.

"Go." I instructed.

He kissed me on the cheek once more the grabbed Emily.

"Hayes, grab Ethan." Matt said.

"Okay. So we'll be in there till he leaves?" Hayes asked me.

"Yup. Or until he wants to see them." I nodded.

The two of them went out the back door and I looked at Taylor.

He was pale and quiet.
