Chapter 11:
"Hello?" I ask wiping my eyes from sleep.
"Avlon." a small voice says over the line crying.
I sit up in bed on full alert. "Braylee? Are you okay?"
She sucks in some breath and says "No, i'm really hungry." Inside I sigh because I thought something had happened to her. It has been a day since the Dr. Office and I havn't herd from her so I was starting to get really worried.
Looking over at the clock I see that it's three in the morning. "Where are you?"
"I'm at home."
"I'm coming to get you will you txt me your address?" I ask and she says she will before we hang up. "Dallas." I say shaking his shoulder the best I can. "Dallas babe."
He opens his eyes and looks at me confused. "Angel? Ya okay?"
Giving him a small smile I say "I'm fine hunie remember the girl I was telling you about?" he nods and I continue. "She wants me to come pick her up. She's hungry."
"Let me get my shoes on." he says sitting up. He throws a shirt on and some plad PJ bottoms. I slip on some PJ bottoms under his shirt and put on some flip flops. "Reckon ya have her address?"
"We can put it in the computer thingy." I say as we walk out to the car. Dallas smirks at me and I purs my lips. It's been a while and I still don't know what its called.
He opens my door for me and I smile even tired my husband is the perfect gentleman. "You didn't have to come. I was just telling you so you didn't wake up worried."
Dallas scoffs and looks over at me quickly. "Ya to beautiful to be goin places by ya'self at night."
I roll my eyes playfully and says "What ever Dallas."
"I'm serious Avlon yer ah looker. Easy on the eyes." he says and I chuckle at him because some times he says things that make his sound ancient. "here we are." he says slowly and I look at the run down apartment in horror.
No one should be living in these. They look like they should be shut down with police tape around them. Some of the widows are broken out and covered with boards and the rest just has trash everywhere. "Oh Lord." I mumble dialing her number. She picks up on the first ring and I say "We're here."
"I'm coming out." she says and I ask her to stay on the phone. When I see her I hang up and open up the door to the truck scooting over quickly for her. She climbs in with a grateful smile and gives me a side hug. "Thank you Avlon and Mr. Avlon." she says looking over to Dallas shyly.
"I'm Dallas sweaty and you are very welcome. Avlon has told me a lot about you." Dallas says talking so she will feel comfortable.
"I don't mean to bother y'all."
"Your not a bother at all." I say reassuringly. "When did you last eat?"
"Yesterday, my mom didn't go shopping for groceries because she needed her next fix." Braylee rubs her arms to get them warm and I take off my jacket giving it to her. She smiles gratefully at me and slips it around her shoulders because im still smaller than her and she's younger than me.
"Oh Lord." I mumble and Dallas grunts not looking to happy. "Well we're going to get you something to eat. You're eating for two now."
We don't talk the rest of the ride we just enjoy the silence well I do. Braylee fidgets a little and I cant help but to be a little uneasy with her. She trust people way to easily and she shouldn't do that.
Snow comes running to the truck when we park and Braylee stays planted in her seat. "He's really nice." I look at Dallas and he nods getting out of the truck. He gabs Snow by the color and holds him there telling him to sit.
He sits and Braylee opens the door slowly. "Are you sure he doesn't bite?"
"I'm positive." I promise and she says Dallas can let him go.
Snow coms up to her happily his whole body moving from the excitement of his tale. He sits infront of her and sniffs at her stomach. He always did that to me when I was pregnant I think he knows there's someone else In there. "His names Snow." I mumble and she brings her hand out slowly to pat his head.
"He's really pretty."
"Thank you my daddy gave him to me."
"Lets get you something to eat." Dallas says ushering us into the house. We go into the kitchen and he has us sit down while he gets us something to eat.
"How old are you and your husband if you don't mid me asking?"
I chuckle at her and says "You're fine i'm twenty-one and Dallas is Twenty nine." his birthday just passed like two months ago.
"Really?" she asks shocked and I smile nodding at her. "How long have you been married? When did you meet?"
"I was nineteen and he was twenty seven. We got married almost a year and a half ago he saved my life."
She cocks her head and asks "Saved your life?"
"I found her on the side of the road bloody and beat half to death." Dallas informs her with a frown sitting the soup in front of her. The smell huts me all at once and I gag running to the kitchen sink. I puke up all I had today.
Dallas runs his hands up and down my back soothingly while holding my hair up. "Yer still feeling bad." Dallas states and I wipe my mouth looking up at him. He looks really confused and i'm confused with im. Eating Chinese can't do this to you. It's been about a week and im still not feeling well.
"I'm gonna go to be ok? I'm really tired and I'm going out with Eva tomorrow to get something's for the baby."
Dallas looks concerned but nods anyways. "I'll set Braylee up in the guest room and be to be in a few." Reaching up I give him a light kiss and make my way to the bedroom for much needed rest.
