Belles pov
I woke up to the boys yelling. I went into the nusery, changed them and fed them. Easton left for work early, so i had to make myself breakfast. Out of no where, the door bell rang. I opened the door and dropped my mug of coffee. Soda and two socs were at my door. Before i could say, anything, Soda handed me a piece of paper. "Heres the court date i promised. Be there, or i automatically win", he smirked. I closed the door and sat on the couch. I opened to piece of paper up and read it aloud.
It read:
Court date of Belle O' Conner and Sodapop Curtis. This issue is over custody agreement over there two kids Austin and Patrick Curtis. Please be there at 9:30 sharp on June 1st, 1969. Issued by Sodapop Curtis.
That was next week! I sat there and cried. How was i going to win? I didnt have any money. Neither did Soda. That could explain why the socs were with him. When did he make friends with socs. There was a knock on the door. I answered it and there were two of my good friends against each other. Pony and Chris. When they saw my tears, they immeadiately hugged me. "Whats wrong Belle?", Pony asked. I handed him the paper and continued to cry.
When Pony was finished reading it, he handed it to Chris. "I cant believe he would do that to you!", Pony said. I fell to the ground, not feeling any strength at all. Could he take my kids away? I took care of them by myself for almost a year. In just a few months, they would be 1. I would be turning 18. Chris picked me up and put me back on the couch. "Its gonna be ok. Your going to win anyway. Your perfect with them", Chris said. "Can you call Gordie. I really want to see him", i asked. "Sure. Of course", he smiled.
"Pony, can you get Dally? I really need to talk to him", i said. Pony nodded and left. I sat there, feeling more and more cold by the second. Chris came back in to see me shivering. "Gosh Belle. You need a blanket", he said and threw one over my shoulders. "Wheres Gordie?", i asked, my teeth chattering. "Hes on his way", Chris said. "Good", i said. I really needed someone to hug, and i knew Gordie would. Then the door busrt open and Dally came running in with Pony behind him.
"Belle! Whats wrong? Pony said you needed me", he said fast. I handed him the piece of paper. He looked it over before his eyes widened. "He did what?", he yelled. I nodded. "Ill be back", he said angrily, stomping out the door. "I better go make sure he doesnt injure him to bad", Pony said. Gordie came in as those two ran out. "Hey Belle. I heard what happened. Im real sorry", Gordie said, sitting next to me. "I...its n...not yo...your fault", i shivered some more. I dont know why im so cold. Then Gordie hugged me like i knew he would. I hugged back. Chris hugged me too and it felt nice to be in a hugging circle.
Then my brother got home another hour or two later. "What are you three all huggy about?", he asked, hanging up his suit jacket. "Here look at what that douchebag sent her", Chris handed him the paper. "That son of a bitch", Easton said lowly. I started shivering again. "Belle, you ok?", Easton asked. Then i exploded.
"No im not! What if he gets full custody of the kids Easton. I will never see them again. I cant have that", i cried. "I know you will win",he said. I just wish he is right.
