Chapter 40

*READ A/N*

Dani's POV-

"You little ass!" I opened my eyes and found Jennel looking all dirty and pissed. "What could've happened if you died! What could've happened to Nicky and Alex!" She walked over to me, slapping my legs repeatedly.

"Jennel! Stop!" I chuckled.

"I'm only hitting you cause I know you can't hit me back" She smirked. I sighed and looked at Des.

"Where's the boys?" I asked trying my best to pull on my arms. Jennel just stared at me, explaining that the boys were at school.

I pulled on the things holding my wrist and yelped when I felt a sting. Jennel sat on my bed next to me and held on to the rope so I can stop.

"Your going to reopen one of your cuts. Stop!" I did as told just laying in bed. "So, Demi is outside" I rolled my eyes and shrugged.

"And?" Des's eyes widen as she sat on the chair next to the bed.

"And she wants to see you" Jennel said persuading me.

"Jennel! I started cutting again. I told myself I never wanted to go back. Here I am 5 or 6 years later, strapped to a hospital bed, waiting to get transferred to a damn treatment center" I snapped. "She's the reason I did this to myself. I love her and I made a mistake. Us as humans make mistakes, and we can learn from them. But it seems to her I can't, and for that she's divorcing me. I don't want to see her" I turned the other way and blinked a tear. "Just, leave me alone. I like to be alone." The bed began to move, so I knew Jennel was getting up.

"Fine" I heard before the door closed and I was left alone.

"Mrs. Lovato is trying again?" Said the nurse that has been checking on me for a week now. "Have you changed your mind?" She asked checking my pressure. "I mean she is your wife, and she has every right to see you?"

"We're getting a divorce" I whispered.

Silence fell and I looked at the nurse to find her with a sad look. I shrugged giving her an awkward smile. She then changed my bandages stepping out the room.

Jennel walked in and sat on the bed once again and patted my leg. She smiled her contagious smile and grabbed the apple juice one of the nurse had sent me.

"I see they finally released you" she giggled. I laughed sarcastically, holding my wrist and sitting up.

"Whatever. How are my little men?" I asked.

"They're ok. Growing, and heading to the first grade, giving me a headache" I laughed thinking about the last time I had seen them.

"Wow. First grade huh?" I nodded proudly taking the juice from Jen.

"When are they transferring you?" I held three fingers indicating in three days as I sipped on the juice.

"It would have been faster if Demi would had just sign the damn papers, but obviously that didn't happen. They waited til I was well to release the straps and I signed for my own stuff." I sighed.

"Is it the same treatment center?" I nodded taking another sip. "I'm gonna miss you"

"Me to" I smiled before wrapping Jennel into a side hug. "Can you see if I can see the boys one last time before I go?"

Jennel smiled nervously before nodding and explaining that it was going to be hard, but she was willing to do anything to get me to see the boys before my departure.

I had a few hours before the supervisor was coming to get me and take me away for awhile. Jennel had managed to keep her promise, and brought the boys as soon as visitation hours was open. So I had to wake up an hour or so earlier than usual just so I can spend more time with them.

"We missed you Missy!" Alex said pointing a stern finger towards me.

The last I had seen of the boys, was a few days before I had relapsed. It had been a few weeks or so now. They had really started to grow and look more and more like Demi each day.

"I know, and I'm sorry. Can you forgive me?" I asked with a slight pout setting him on my lap and motioned Jennel to set Nicky on my lap as well.

"Yes!" Nicky exclaimed. I smiled ruffling his hair and kissed both their cheeks. They instantly wrapped their small arms around me hugging me tightly.

"I'm going to be going away for a while. Ok? When I'm gone, I need you to be on your best behavior with Aunt Jennel and Destiny, Mama, and everyone else. Ok?" They nodded tilting their heads to the side.

"Where are you going? Why can't we go? We don't want you to go!" Alex whined gripping tightly on my clothes that Jennel had brought along side with two suit cases.

"As much as I want to stay and be with you guys, I have to go. And where I go, I can't take you guys with me." I had began to release tears as Nicky silently cried and Alex looked at me with an angry expression.

"You don't love us no more?" Hearing Alex say that made my heart break into a million more pieces than it had already was.

"Of course I still love you. I'm never going to stop loving you. I just have to go to another place to get better. See, mommy is sick, and I have to go get better so I can be here with you guys. Don't ever say I don't love you, cause I love you more than anything in this entire world. I haven't been the best mommy, but I'm trying" I sniffed and kissed each of their heads again, hugging them tightly.

"We love you to mommy" I heard Nicky.

When the boys were busy eating my breakfast that the hospital had provided me, I had pulled her aside to talk to her.

"This envelope I give you, I need you to give it to Demi. Tell her everything is signed and dated where its suppose to be." I handed the orange folder and sighed. "This folder I give you now" I handed her a folder that contained papers and documents of the ownership of my parents home. "Are ownership papers. I had arrangements done and everything in that house including my parents bank accounts and my dads truck that i never moved, is now under the boys name." She looked at me shockingly before opening the folder and skimming through the documents. "I need you to take care of them, Jennel. Your all I have left to watch over them. Please do it for me" she nodded before hugging me tightly.
