I walk back to the room making funny faces at the twins, I stop at the door and take a deep breath mentally preparing myself. I gently knock and take another deep breath, the door slowly opens and DJ smiles at me “Hey you ready” he asks and I nod, he takes the lead and I follow him with the twins. Dante looks up and my heart is racing, I want to cry every time I see him I'm just so happy. “Doll” he smiles “Oh what's this,” he asks getting off the bed and coming to me “Ooh babies” he smiles

“Hey little ones” he smiles making silly faces “You two babysitting for the day,” he asks “Oh. Um no” I scratch my arm “They're mine,” I say and he stops looking at me shocked “W.. What…R…really,” he asks “This is Miku,” I say touching her hand “And this is D…Dante Jr,” I say and he pauses and looks at me I twist my fingers nervously. “T…The….They're mine” he asks “I…I found out a couple of weeks after you went missing” I say looking away from him, “They're mine” he smiles tearing up, he grabs me and kisses me.

“They're ours” he whispers and I start to cry again, “I…I love you Dante” I cling to him. “I love you too Adenna” he squeezes me, “Oh can I please hold them” he clasp his hands together, “Dante you had something you wanted to tell us” DJ chuckles “Oh. Yeah” he laughs “I remember everything, I thought you guys should know that I know who did this to me,” he says

*Ring ring*  “Oh I'm sorry” DJ pulls out his phone “Oh I have to take this it's Trent he's watching the gang for me,” he says and I nod, I look at Dante and he's still making silly faces at the twins. “Little baby girl, oh so cute, and little baby boy oh so handsome” he sings tickling them. “YOU DID WHAT” DJ yells outside the room, “Um should we-” I start getting up but I feel and hand on my hand. “What's wrong,” I ask “I…I'm sorry,” he says “What,” I ask, “DJ told me about your dad and it's my fault you had to face him again,” he says looking down.

“What. No don't apologize, I'm sorry I was reckless when I did that, I was beating myself up because it was….it is my fault that you were taken by him” I say tears threatening to fall through. “No, please don't say that, it was my fault I provoked him” Dante shakes his head. “If there is anyone to blame it's me” he squeezes my hand gently, “I am here now and I will never leave you. Never again,” he says and I smile “You better not because if you do I'm going to be very upset” I pout and he chuckles “Adenna” DJ comes back in the room.

“Yeah…hey what's wrong,” I ask “Um do you remember when we said that we wanted your dad to pay,”  he asks “Yeah what about it” I nod “Um….I told the guys about how I felt and well…they have your dad,” he says and my eyes widen “DJ WHAT THE HELL” I yell and the twins start crying “Ah” I groan and go to the stroller “Shh shh it's okay” I whisper slowly moving the stroller back and forth, they start calming down and I take a deep breath. “DJ. What the hell” I smile through gritted teeth

“I…I didn't know…but-” “But” I snap “I mean…you wouldn't want to make your old man pay” he asks looking away. “….Of course I do….I…I want him to feel the pain we felt….I want him to understand the pain…” I sniffle “I…I hate him and I…I am upset…because I tried to handle this the right way….but deep down I still wanted him to suffer the way he made us…all of us suffer” I clench my fist “Then what do you want to do” DJ asks “I…I want to be the one to do” I say and Dante and DJ both gasp

“I know it's not me….but he's put me through enough, I…I want to do it…but I can't do it right now” I shake my head “I want everyone to feel the joy of having Dante back. And I want to get the twins home” I sniffle “I have a plan” DJ says “You do? what is it” I ask “One week. That is the longest we can keep him. I will make sure he is moved to a different location. So just one week and that's all I can do. Does that sound good to you,” he asks “Yes. One week that's all I need” I nod “Okay. Then, I'm sorry but I have to move him right now, I'm sorry guys” he shakes his head.

“I'll ask Trent to come pick you up if you want….unless Dante you're up for visitors,” he asks and Dante thinks for a second “I…I want my mom and brothers here,” he says and I smile “Okay then I tell Trent to bring them, Adenna will you be okay here,” DJ asks “I will be okay here don't worry” I nod “Okay. I am going to be back tomorrow for your dumbass” he hits Dante “Yeah yeah leave me alone with my girlfriend” he smiles and looks at me, I look away quickly my face feeling flushed.

“Ew. You guys are weird” DJ chuckles, I mess with the twins trying to hide my face “Hey doll?” Dante calls to me “Mhm” I nod not looking at him “Doll” he sings “Yes…Dante” I ask. “I love you,” he says and I smile “I love you too Dante” I chuckle, “I love you a lot” chuckle, I turn around and he's behind me “Woah you scared me” I chuckle backing up. “You know even though I was technically just asleep, I missed you the most” he grabs my hand and pulls me in “I never want to be apart from you for that long…ever again” he squeezes me tightly. “I will love you forever” I whisper and hug him back.
