Detroit, MI:
Isabella entered the house seeing Ben sitting on the couch on his laptop, he looked up at Isabella and smiled. "Hey, you like the house?" He asked sitting up sitting the laptop on the table, he pulled his glasses off sitting them on the table as well, giving her his full attention.
"I'm not going to take it." She replied as she sat next to him, his smile dropped a bit seeing the red marks around her wrists.
"You get arrested or something?" He asked picking her arm up rubbing his fingers across the red mark on her wrist.
"No it's nothing honestly-"
"Izzy when you left me this morning, you didn't have this. You've only been gone 2 hours, and I know Ambrose ain't do this he picked the kids up about 45 minutes after you left. If somebody hurt you, I am still your husband and I need to know. And you love that house, why not move in?" He asked.
"Uh..." She sighed, she didn't want Ben to resort back to his old ways, but she couldn't lie to him either. "I went on that date with Daniel, and it was really weird so I left and just went to meet Tory to see the house, he kept texting and calling which was weird again, but I just shrugged it off and went in to look at the house. Me and Tory in the house and Daniel is in the doorway and I went out to tell him to get the fuck on and don't contact me. He got really mad when I tried to walk away and grabbed me really hard, Tory had to flash her gun and he backed off."
"Okay, bet." He said getting up and she grabbed Ben's hand.
"Ben he's the AG you can't-"
"Don't tell m e what I can't do, he don't get to put his hands on my wife, together or not. I ain't got shit to fuckin' lose." His New York accent seeped through effortlessly, and she knew he meant business.
"Ben..." She spoke softly as he paced the living room with his fists balled. "I am okay, and I love this job, it's my fault I should've just continued to tell him no when he asked me out over and over."
"Let me tell you something." He said looking at her in disbelief. "You can date or not date whoever the hell you want to and a muh-fucka can't get mad and hurt you because of it. It's not yo fault and ion ever wanna hear that shit again Izzy. You know where he stay?" He asked.
"He doesn't live here in Detroit, I don't know what hotel he's at."
"If he knows what's good for him, he'll disappear. I'm buying you a gun."
"I don't know what to do with a gun Ben-"
"I will teach you." He replied, and the worried look on his face let her know he meant business. He would not take no for an answer, he wanted her safe and it was his job to keep her safe. "I'm sorry I'm so worked up, if anything ever happened to you I would lose my mind. I didn't mean to yell, I just hate niggas like him." Ben sat next to Izzy, and she gave him a small smile.
"I'm okay Ben, I just don't need you doing anything stupid, the kids and I still need you. We are a family together or not, I would be devastated if you got locked up. I'll handle this another way."
