Melissa was curled up on the couch holding our son. She looked so at peace with him. Her father had really tried to improve his relationship with her. I watched them from the doorway, the laughter on both of their faces as little Bray smiled. Hope came bounding into the room, flinging herself onto Melissas father. I think this little girl was a big part of his change. But so was Brays letter to him, he and I had sat and talked for over 3 hours the night Melissa had little Bray. She looked up and saw me staring, "Hey, get your ass over here."
I shook my head laughing, "Babe, you really got to watch what you say."
"What are you gonna do about it?"
"Throw a snowball at you?"
"You always lose at snowball fights. You know that right?"
"Maybe I like losing to you sweetheart."
"Nah, you're too competitive, just like me."
"Ah hell no, I'm just a sucker for the bets you make."
"Hey, not in front of my grandkids you two."
Hope squealed as her granddad tickled her.
"Ok then, how about me and Hope, vs you two old men?" Melissa asked.
"You're on," her dad teased.
She grabbed Hope and the two of them raced to get ready, leaving us boys alone. "She's crazy in love with you, you know that right?"
"I do. And I'm crazy in love with her. Funny thing is, our whole relationship changed the night after we had a snowball fight."
"Thank you for making her happy."
"Anytime. Thank you for reaching out to her. It's honestly made her very happy. But I do have one question, and this goes no further then between you and I. How did Abigail did?"
He sighed, then answered, "Abigail and Bray had just had a screaming match about something small. Bray went to leave and grabbed Melissa who was only a year old, when Abigail grabbed her from him. Tossing her to the floor. As Bray ran to Melissa, Braun walked in, seeing Bray crawling towards Melissa. He looked at Abigail and charged. Bray tried to stop him at first, but Melissa's cries made him snap. He looked at Braun and said, "Destroy her, for she will not be the greatest of this family, Melissa will. When I got home that night, I saw Bray, Luke, Erick and Braun standing outside, Bray approached me and told me what happened. I snapped and went after Melissa as well. Bray stopped me. He always protected her from that night forward. I hated how he would protect her. And the night she ran away I had planned on ending her life. I'm glad I didn't."
"Thank you," I said as Melissa and Hope came running back in, "We're ready," she said out of breath.
"Let's do this." I said taking her and Hopes hand, going outside and beginning our snowball fight.
