Nightmare

Chapter 24: It All Goes Down.

~7 YEARS LATER~

~Shadow's POV~

I had just woken up, and I heard mommy and daddy screaming again, what are they screaming about?

I walked out and saw daddy grab a huge bag and leave the door, I wanted daddy to come back so bad, I thought he was leaving forever.

"Shadows?" Mommy said.

"Mommy? Where's daddy?" I asked.

"Well sweetie, daddy isn't feeling the best, so he is going to stay with uncle Zacky and aunt Jessie." She said.

"Is he gonna come back?" I asked. I needed daddy back.

"I don't know honey. Let's go out for ice cream." She said, smiling.

We went out for ice cream and I got my usual cotton candy. It was yummy.

"When will I get to see daddy again?" I asked.

"This weekend." Mommy said.

"For how long?" I asked, smiling.

"Two days, you're gonna come back on Sunday." She said, smiling.

I smiled, I couldn't wait to see daddy again!

~Jade's POV~

"WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" I yelled at Matt.

He had been out every single day this week and barely paid attention to Shadows.

"NOTHING! AT LEAST I'M NOT SLUTTING AROUND LIKE YOU!" He yelled back.

"I'VE BEEN IN THIS HOUSE DAY AND FUCKING NIGHT TAKING CARE OF OUR CHILD THAT YOU DON'T EVEN PAY ATTENTION TO ANYMORE." I yelled.

"I'M LEAVING AND I'M NOT COMING BACK." He yelled, grabbing his bag and leaving.

Was it really over? Why was he like this? I just wanted him to be a dad and he didn't listen.

I heard Shadows walk out and I decided to take her for ice cream so she forgets about the yelling.

I tried texting Matt.

Me: Can we just work this out please? Shadows keeps asking about you.

Matt: I'm gonna see her this weekend. It's fine. We just need space.

Me: I know.

I took Shadows back home and she watched a movie, while I cried in the kitchen. I wanted to know why he was acting like this ever since after his tour. Was there another girl? Was he cheating? Was he tired of Shadows?

~Matt's POV~ 

I grabbed my bag and left. What the fuck was wrong with me? Ever since I got into an accident at the tour I was a complete dick to my wife and my kid. MY KID. What the fuck was I gonna do? They're never gonna forgive me. I love them. I already miss them. I was so busy going out and partying with Johnny I was a shitty father and husband. 

I decided to stay over at Zacky's and he was pissed at me, probably because Jade was his sister.

"I don't know why I'm doing this." I said.

"Maybe you need therapy, Matt." Jessie said.

"I know, I want to, but that won't fix everything I've done to Jade and Shadows." I said, crying.

"Matt, Shadows adores you, Jade will come around, she always did, she just needs time this time." She said.

"You're right." I said.

Then I got a text from Jade. God I needed her.

Jade: Can we just work this out please? Shadows keeps asking about you.

Me: She can come this weekend. It's fine. We just need space.

Jade: I know.

I just wanted her. I needed her. I missed her.

~Jade's POV~ 

It was Friday and I drove over to Zacky's place, I also needed to talk to Zacky.

"Daddy!" Shadows screamed, running into his arms. I went inside and went to Zacky.

"How are you feeling sis?" He asked, handing me a soda.

"I'm fine." I said.

"No you're not, you look dead." He said.

"You're right, I haven't slept in days, I cried too much." I said.

"He needs you as much as you need him, so you need to work this out." Zacky said.

"You're right." I said.

"Go talk to him, I'll take Shadz." He said.

We walked over to Matt and Shadows, who were watching a movie.

"Matt, can we talk?" I asked.

"Sure. I'll be right back princess." He said, walking with me outside.

We went outside, I bursted out in tears.

"What's wrong with me?" I said.

"Jade, there's nothing wrong with you. I didn't know what I was thinking. I was a dick. Huge dick. I miss you. I love you so much." He said.

"I miss you too, we want you back home. Shadows is miserable without you." I said.

"I'm miserable without you both. I'll come home." He said.

I hugged him as tight as I could and kissed him. I missed him a lot.
