Chapter #37
Louri’s POV
Last night was an emotional rollercoaster to say the least. Melanie told Scarlett that Ma said she was sorry but if she was truely sorry she wouldn’t have done it in the first place you just don’t do that to the ones you love. I will not be letting my mother anywhere near my family anytime soon. I haven’t even been home a full week it’s been five days and my mother already has fucked up spectaularly. I wake up to a grown ass adult getting in bed with Scarlett and I. I already know who it is because this isn’t the first time she’s done this. “Does Robbie know you are here?” I ask. “Yeah he’s sleeping on your couch.” She shrugs. “Oh my god is he really?” I ask. “Yes he wanted to be here for the kids.” She says. “You married a good man Liz.” I tell her. “Louri who? Oh hey Lizzie.” Scarlett says completely unphased by the fact that Liz is in our bed. “Chris called and told me what happened with she who shall not be named.” She says, making me laugh. “Did you just equate my mother in law with voldemort?” Scarlett asks, trying not to laugh even though it is funny. “Yes I did, now how are you two doing?” Liz asks.  “Been better. Just so you know I don’t think it’s funny when Louri gets hurt.” Scarlett tells her. “Scarlett I know, trust me we all know. Your mother was an ass to not just Scarlett but to you too Louri.” Liz says. “Yeah I know. I appreciate you and Robbie coming over.” I tell her. “Robbie’s here?” Scarlett asks. “Yeah he’s sleeping on the couch.” Lizzie says. “At least he didn’t crawl into bed with us.” Scarlett says. “No, that would be weird.” Liz says. “And it’s not when you do it?” I ask. “No, it's adorable and cute.” She says. “What if we were naked?” I ask. “That’s why there is a sheet between us duh.” She says. “You are a strange woman, Elizabeth Olsen.” I say. “But you guys love me. Now let’s go to sleep.” She says.

Scarlett’s POV
I wake up to Maya poking me in the face. “Good morning sweetie.” I say rolling over in Louri’s arms. “Why is Auntie Wizzie here?” She asks. “Well she came to make sure me and your Mama were ok. We had a rough night last night.” I tell her. “Are you otay?” She asks. “Yes sweetie we’re ok. Your Uncle Robbie should be down stairs, why don’t you go say hi.” I tell her. “UNCLE ROBBIE!!” She squeals as she runs out of the room. “Was that Maya?” Louri asks and gets hit in the head with a pillow. “I’m sleeping.” Liz groans. “I have a whole new respect for Robbie.” Louri jokes and Liz sits up. “I’m not that bad.” Liz says. “You smacked me with a pillow. My pillow may I add.” Louri says. “Ok I’m not the best morning person but I was up late.” She defends. “It’s ok Louri isn’t a morning person either.” I say. “But don’t you have to get up early because of your job?” Liz asks. “Yes and I am a caffeine junkie for a reason.” Louri laughs. “Morning ladies.” Robbie says with Maya in one arm and a cup of coffee in his free hand. “Here Lizzie I made you coffee.” He says and hands it to her. “That’s why he doesn’t get hit with a pillow. I've trained him well.” Liz jokes. “You didn’t hit Scarlett with the pillow did you?” He asks. “No, I hit Louri with the pillow.” She says before taking another sip of coffee. “I made a pot, do you two want some?” Robbie asks. “You did train him well.” I joke. “Yes, coffee would be nice.” I say. “Ok how do you like it?” He asks. “Irish Cream syrup and half & half.” I tell him. “How about you Scarlett?” He asks. “None for me I need to throw up, excuse me.” I say before running to the bathroom Louri quickly follows. “Hey I’ve got you.” Louri says rubbing my back and holding my hair. “God I hate morning sickness.” I tell her. “I know. Robbie said he’ll bring you the pepto when he brings my coffee.” Louri says. “He’s sweet.” I say. “That he is. I told Liz last night right before you woke up that she married a good man.” Louri says. “Wait Louri you approve of me?” Robbie asks from the doorway of the bathroom. “Of course I do. You are great with Liz and you love my kids like they are your flesh and blood. I will admit I didn’t really like you that much in the beginning but that was because I didn’t know you.” Louri tells him. “Can I have that pepto please?” I ask. “Right here you go and here’s your coffee Louri.” He says handing me the pepto and Louri her coffee. “Four more months.” I say after Robbie leaves the bathroom and Louri smiles widely. “Yep four more months till we meet the little guy.” She says.

Chris’s POV
“Ma I don’t think it’s a good idea for you to go over there right now. What you did last night was cruel. How would you feel if someone did that to Louri?” I say as Ma starts getting ready to head over to Louri and Scarlett’s. “I’d want to break their nose.” She says. “Yeah so how do you think Melanie feels?” I ask. “The same way but I have to apologize.” She says. “Ma I don’t think they even want you on the same property right now.” I tell her. “Nonsense I am her mom I’m sure she will hear me out.” She says as she is getting in the Uber that she called I better follow because this isn’t going to go well.
