Bentley's P.O.V
"Well?" She asked placing her hand on her hip. "I met my aunt today who lives in England. She's my mother's only sister she came to visit her grave seeing that she couldn't attend the funeral." I said the sickening feeling returning again.
I guess after all that's been going on in my life I still find it hard to get over the fact that my mother will never be able to meet my kids. I really don't know what I'll do if they ever ask about her or ask why they don't have grandparents."Bentley you just zoned out." Ava said snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Baby?" Ava said coming to stand closer looking at me concern gleaming in her dark brown eyes. "I need you to be able to trust me Ava- Marie. We've been doing this conclusion jumping shit for God knows how long. What don't I do? I try Ava and that's as much as I could do but you can't just .... ," I ranted a bit frustrated.
"You always make me the bad person. Bentley how am I supposed to feel when I'm in the house all day and your gone most of the time. And then you're assistant looks like that?" She asked her eyes becoming glossy. It just got me more angry because we just spoke about it and less than three seconds later she's bringing up the accusation again.
"There's no fucking winning with you Ava, I. Am. Not. Having. A . Fucking. Affair! Could you get that through your thick head, listen for once and not believe what you want too. I'll fire her if that'll make you feel any better. God you're so concerned about me having an affair when you're not even doing what a wife is supposed to do! I should have one Ava then you'll be right and then maybe just maybe I'll be happy!" I screamed before storming out of our bedroom and out of the house.
I didn't know where I was going but what I did know was that I needed to be as far away from Ava as possible right now.

"Dude it's four in the morning!" Jake whisper yelled when I stumbled into his house plopping down on his sofa. "Are you drunk?" He asked looking at me confused I think I was really wasted. "Yeah Ava's tripping so I went to loosen up. She thinks I'm having an affair so I decided to give her something to worry about!" I slurred.
"You know that the reason you're acting like this has nothing to do with Ava's suspicions. Maybe why you decided to get this drunk but it's way more than just that B." He said sounding like a nagging wife. "God Jake If I wanted to be nagged I would've just gone home Ava's pretty good at doing that." I said bored. "You're a fucking mess. We'll talk about this in the morning." He said but I left right after I didn't want to have that conversation with him.

Ava's P.O.V
"Mommy!" Tyler whined dropping herself onto the floor refusing to get into the bath. "Tyler quite your whining and just get in the tub." I said attempting to lift her but she just decided to throw a full blown tantrum. My patience was running thin so I just walked away accepting the fact that they're going to be late today because they were both grumpy.
"Skyler put your tablet down and come get ready for school." I said over the screaming Tyler who by the way was still naked on the bathroom floor. "I don't want too." She said still playing her game. "Skyler I'm going to count to three if you don't put that down this minute I swear!" I warned quickly getting angry.
I didn't quite expect her to throw the tablet across the room and folded her arms as though she was angry with me. Now shocked is the only word I could use to explain what I felt yet it's a big understatement. "Skyler what's wrong?" I decided to ask instead of punishing her. "I just wanted one more minute to play." She said now crying.
"And you thought throwing your tablet across the room would get you that?" I asked. "No. And I'm sorry mommy." She apologized hanging her head down allowing her full curls to hang down in her face. "It's okay baby just don't do it again. Now go pick it up and then go to my room I'll be there to give you a bath." I said before walking away to face Tyler who was still crying.
"Get off the floor Tyler." I ordered once I entered the bathroom. "No. I want daddy." She said between sobs. Obviously that's the reason they're both acting up but I don't even know where he even stormed out."Tyler!" I warned getting a bit angry both by her behavior and the fact that Bentley knows the effect he has on them yet he chose not to be here.
Completely fed up with her behavior I decided to just lift her off the floor and that's when she bit me. "Ouch!" I shouted both from the pain and my frustration. This is most definitely the worst morning ever! "I hate you mommy!" She screamed before running out of the room.
Although she was three and most likely didn't mean what she said I still reacted to her words. "Tyler I could care less just get your ass in the dam tub now!" I said grabbing her by her forearm when she instantly started screaming. So I just gave her a bath while she screamed.

"Ava she's three she doesn't mean it!" Stacey failed miserably at her attempt of comforting me while I cried. "Come on so what you had a rough morning they're toddlers Ava." She said with a long sigh. "Enough about me what's new with you?" I asked shifting the phone in my hand allowing me to wipe my tears away.
"School sucks and I miss home and my babies. But I'll be there for their birthday party which you need to start planning by the way." She ordered. "Yeah I know." I said already dreading having to plan it all by myself. "Ava I gotta go but I'll call soon." She said quickly before hanging up. The exact moment my lovely husband decided to return home.
'How lucky am I' I thought sarcastically. He walked into the kitchen and just stared at me. "Why do you have dirt all over you?" I asked looking at his appearance. He was literally covered in dirt form head to toe! "I... went to visit...yah know." He mumbled the last part his eyes becoming glassy.
"Your mom." I finished his sentence already knowing the effect it had on him. He didn't answer though he just kept staring at me. "Ava- Marie." He said huskily moving towards me so that he trapped me against the refrigerator and his toned body. "Why can't you just love me?" He asked before lightly kissing my lips.
He tasted like bear which he was obviously drinking. "I can't loose you baby." He said kissing a trail down my neck. "You're drunk?" I asked causing him to stop his actions. "Honestly I was drunk that's why I didn't come home last night. So I went over to Jake's house but he was nagging me so I slept in the cemetery." He said which explained his strange behavior.
"What's wrong?" I asked forgetting that I was angry with him. "Baby I just need you right now." He said before lifting me into his arms and carrying me to our room. You see when he acts all hurt which I know he still is he just keeps it app bottled up I can't help but give him whatever he wants. Or in this case needed and maybe lots of it.
