I woke up and looked around confused. What happened last night? I heard clawing on the door from the other side, Voodoo. Then I remembered everything. Tears started welling up but I held them back. I got up and unlocked the door then opened it slowly. I walked downstairs to see Austin nowhere in sight. I shrugged and walked into the kitchen to see a note on the counter.

Dear Zundra;

I'm sorry about everything. I didn't mean anything I said. I love you I really do but I think we need time apart right  now, just for a week or so? I'll be staying at Alan's, if you need anything please call me! I love you baby, I always will. I'll see you at the end of the week.

I read the note over and over. Was I reading this right? I put the note down and just stood there in shock. I'm such a bitch. Why couldn't I just let him in to talk? Why am I so stubborn. I sighed and ran a hand through my hair. I walked into the living room and sat down on the lazy boy feeling empty without Austin here. "You don't need food." I mumbled to myself as my stomach growled but then I started thinking about Austin and being healthy for Robert. I sighed after thinking for awhile. I got up and decided to eat something small.

Robert woke up so I did the usual routine then brought him downstairs and placed him gently in the play pen. I felt like I was worthless, Austin and I clearly don't know how to work things out properly but for Robert's sake we need to learn how to. I already miss him and it hasn't even been a day.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The last couple of nights were the worst. Robert woke up every hour of the night crying. He was sick and I felt like shit because I didn't know what would make him feel better. Austin wasn't even here and I didn't want to call him late at night. It was so hard to get Robert to go back to sleep that I, myself cried too.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One more day until this miserable week ends and Austin comes home. The most sleep I had this week was 3 hours. I was frustrated and tired and I was getting sick. I threw up every morning. I just needed Austin here. Robert was still sick and I was worried he was getting even more sick as the week went by, but I guess it just seemed like it because I barely slept.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Finally Austin's coming home today. I couldn't wait. I was kinda pissed he just left and I had to take care of Robert by myself. I just want to yell at Austin and smack him across the face and just tell him to open his eyes, he has a kid. I just don't want to start a problem again. I sighed and sat on the couch. Finally Robert was sleeping. I was watching some show when the door opened and Austin walked in with a smile on his face like he had no care in the world. That pissed me right the fuck off. While he was having such a great week I was here taking care of our sick baby, I barely slept at all.

"Baby!" He smiled and walked up to the couch. He leaned down and kissed me. His lips, I missed them. I pulled away and didn't look at him once. "What's wrong?" I knew I looked like shit, of course I did I had huge bags under my eyes. I looked up at him and his face turned into concern. "You left me all alone to take care of our child while he was sick. The most sleep I had was three hours! While you were having a great fucking dandy week I was here taking care of baby was in pain and I couldn't do anything to help because I didn't know what was bothering him. I puked every morning."

Austin just stood there looking at me with a blank expression. "Baby, I'm.. I didn't know. I'm so sorry. Believe me, if I knew I would of came home. I just thought we needed some space."."AUSTIN, we have a fucking kid, we don't need space we need to grow up and be parents. I know I'm defiantly acting like a parent but what about you? Its time to grow up Austin you're not 16 anymore." He nodded his head obviously not up for arguing. I just sat there and shook my head. He's pathetic, I can't believe he just left for a week then came back and acted like things were perfect.

"I'm sorry baby, I really am. You're right and I love you." He sat beside me and held my hands in his. "I love you too."."I missed you baby." I nodded my head in agreement. He pulled me closer to him and held me tightly. I know I shouldn't be given in this fast but I'm sick of fighting. I just want to have a happy family. We just sat there holding each other for dear life and never let go once. I love him and wont ever stop.
