Family Love 💠 [1]

Close

I was in a panic. I held eight month old baby girl as I walk forward knocking on the door. Sophie was babbling non stop. "Lillie what are" "I saw him Al I need to know" Al just let's me inside taking Sophie from me. I put the bag on the floor taking a few toys out for her. I run my hand through my hair sighing "what's going on Lillie" he was so calm. Calmness I envied right now. He stood before me rocking my daughter like nothing was happening. I start pacing "Belle or whatever her name is his CI" Al nods still very confused puts Sophie on the floor with her toys around her. He grabs both my shoulder stopping me keeping me in place. "What about Belle" "you've met her fantastic" I was seething my breath picked up "what's going on I haven't seen you like this in forever" I go to move feeling like I would explode if I don't but his arms are like vices keeping me in place. "What did you see" he asks carefully "am I being paranoid because of bloody bunny Fletcher" he sighs "I want to say yes" my eyes widen all the possible things they do rush through my head "hey...he loves you more than anything even life itself. He knows how much it destroyed you last time and he also know that he won't get you back if he doesn't it. He wouldn't jeopardise that" he tried to calm me surprising it does a little. "I also know how close him and Belle are...things are complicated with her" I sigh as he slowly wraps his arms around me "would you even tell me if he was" he doesn't say anything. I don't think even he knew what he would do, he was loyal to both of us. He just holds me as the anger disappears only to be replaced with sadness. The heartache that was once there slowly returning. He sits on his couch with me in his arms. "You tell anyone your here" "just Justin he wanted to meet said I had to talk to you" my voice was tired and small. He strokes my head calming me. Slowly my eyes begin to close. I felt myself being moved but I didn't have the energy to open my eyes. I was filled with darkness.

"Why do you have my daughter" I hear a distant voice "because your wife saw you with Belle" there was a pause. I could slowly feel my body wake up. But I don't open my eyes. "I know how close Belle and you are she's been a CI for years I also know how touchy she can be" I hear Al say "she scared if loosing you" "she won't loose me" "you say that but Belle is devious and manipulative hell she made out with Ruzek for payment. When belle sees that wonderful woman nearby watching she is going to make you seem like the worst person on the planet" I sigh bringing silence. I roll over opening my eyes, blinking them to wake up and see. I see Henry right in front of me smiling. "I'm sorry I was tired" I slowly start to sit up "it's fine besides it's not the first time I have take care of a baby" Al said shrugging with Sophie in his arms. "You won't loose me beautiful" he moves a piece of hair out of my face stroking the side of my face as he does so. "Belle is a crazy woman helpful but crazy and I won't do anything to hurt you" he tells me tracing the shape of my face "I know if I loose you the most important person in my life I will be lost but I will also loose Justin and Soph" "I would never keep her from you" "but she will grow to resent me like Justin if I hurt you" "all the more reason to make it a point you wont" I smile leaning forward and kissing him. He pours all his love into the delicate kiss. In that moment I knew I was being paranoid coming here but I couldn't help it.
