How I Survived Hurricane Irene

Chapter 5

The screaming still went on for about fifteen   more minutes. My ears felt like they were bleeding it was so loud. By the time everyone stopped screaming I could ask what was going on.

I turned to Hunter to ask him but he wasn't there. I guess he went to help or go to the bathroom.

Hmm. I'm so confused. I don't understand what is happening at all but I guess by the smiles and tears of joy something good happened.

Hunter finally came back and I asked him where he went.

"I went to the bathroom and then lady needed help with her baby."

"Oh okay. That's fine. I was just wondering because you were beside me than gone."

"I'm sorry baby I didn't mean to scare you nor upset you if I did."

"You didn't I was just surprised when you just disappeared."

"My bad again. I anit going no where now. Okay, I'll stay here with you."

"Okay, thank you baby. I love you."

"I love you too babygirl."

When he told me he went to the bathroom and to help a lady with her baby had me thinking. For one because the bathroom was just down the hall and the only lady with a baby or child was thess lmoved them to a different area.

I knew that Hunter wouldn't cheat on me but it still had me wondering.

------------------------------

A few hours later it was raining really hard like it was hail again. I was still wondering what was going on with Hunter and when this hurricane was going to end.

Its been almost ten hours since this hurricane began. Honestly I'm tired of sitting down here with all these people that I don't know. I'm not claustrophobic but I can't stand being with so many people at one time.

Ugh!

I want to go home! Or at least find Charlotte's  parents. And if I have to find a way to keep her I will see if adoption is possible but if not I don't want to let her go.

Even though it's only been eight hours since I seen her -well found her- I don't want to just let someone random person take her from me. It would be so sad because I get attached easily too.

This is so bad! *sad face*

I just want to keep her but maybe I should talk to Hunter and ask him what I should do, but I have to find someway to take the thought of him cheating out of my head.

I really don't want to think that because I have been with him for a year and a half now. This is really upsetting me.

"Baby what's wrong?" Hunter asked I guess he could sense that I was upset. He taught his self when to sense my emotions.

"Oh it's nothing... I'm just upset because I wanna keep Charlotte but I know the police officers and whoever are going to take her from me." I started to tear up.

"Come here.  I won't let them take her away from you. If she makes you happy then I'm happy and she's a really pretty girl." He held me in his arms till I spoke again.

"But what if they do take her and put her in Foster care. I don't want her to go through that!"

"She wont have to go through that because when this hurricane is over when go back your place and get mama and daddy to adopt her. Then she can live with you and I can stay the night on weekends and some week days to help take care of her."

"Awh thank you baby. But do you promise you won't let anyone come in between us and probably Charlotte. Please?"

"Of course I won't! What have you that idea? I will always be here for you and hopefully Charlotte, no one is going to get my heart other than you. Yes I do promise. I promise to love you for as long as the world lets me."

"I knew you would thank you so much that's shy I love you so much. Hunter you just don't know."

"Yeah I do know how much that is." He kinda whispered then leaned in for a kiss but I turned my head because I don't kiss I front of random people in a shelter with a five year old beside me.

"Sorry I forgot about you not liking to kiss in places like this... because it's not romantic." Putting air quotes when he said romantic.

"Why do you make it sound like I'm so mean! I guess you can have s kiss if your just that needy."

"Thank you because I have been waiting for one all day." We kissed but I made sure it wasn't heated nor long.

"Okay. Okay. That's enough kisses for you mister."

"But I wasn't finished!" He started to pout at me. I just about gave in till Charlotte woke up.

"No! Charlotte's awake now. So no you can wait."

"But..." I stopped him before he could sag another word.

"But I said no so stop. Also I know how you act so no again! Now stop begging me and go get me some water for Charlotte."

"Fine. I will." He was mad but it was funny and cute to me.

"Thank you baby! I love you!" I gave him a peck on his lips then he got up and went to get me some water.
