Loving Carter

12

Guysssss Sorry but I've been such a busy bee. Balancing work, school, and softball is no joke. This year is a challenge bc I have so much to get done before graduation and they're literally shoving college down my throat.

I've been done with this update for a minute just haven't really had time to type it up (Dab).

I'll have a lot more time to update over this Christmas break

But it's not too short, not too long.

Anywhoreeeeee.

Carter POV

I honestly don't know what to make of this situation. I mean, would Zora's dad put a hit out on his daughter? That can't be the case. It wouldn't make sense.

Noah's crying interrupted my thoughts. I head down the hall to his bedroom, lifting him from the crib.

"Cmon buddy." I lightly bounce him. He continued to cry for a minute until I gave him a pacifier. "You can come watch Daddy play video games." I peek in Noelle's room, she was napping still.

I cradled him in my arm as he watched me play the game, making noises every now and then.

"When you get old enough, this is all we're gonna do buddy. I'm gonna get us a man cave, and maybe a few posters of some half naked chicks. Even though I would love to put up some of your mom, but that'd be weird for you." I laugh a bit. "Shit!" I say as I miss the shot."

"Carter?" Zora says.

"I'm in the den." I say. She came in using a walker, with a big smile. So much progress. I was so proud.

"Like my new toy?" She giggles.

"Yeah." I laugh. "You've been gone forever." I stand pecking her lips.

"Well Dr. Howard and I went out for lunch after my session."

"Yeah?" I felt a little pang of jealousy. I shift Noah to my other arm.

"Yes. We lost track of time." She shrugs.

"Oh well did you have fun?"

"It was amazing." She laughs a bit. I force a smile and nod. "How were the twins?"

"Uh they slept really." I shrug. "So lunch... Where did you go?"

"Just the little pizza place we used to hangout at all the time." Seriously?!

"Oh." I look away. "Well at least you enjoyed yourself with the uh, Doctor guy."

"I know. Been a minute since I've really enjoyed myself like that." She heads down the hall. I don't know how I feel about that.

As I laid in bed that night waiting for her to get out of the shower, her phone went off. I stare at it.

"No Carter. Don't do it." I tell myself. I glance at the screen again. Fuck it. I grab it from the side of the bed. I slide it unlock, opening the conversation between her and Dr. Perfect.
