Recovering what was lost: Sequel to Travlyn the lovely couple

Returning

Katelyn POV
He's coming back. Aqua has been excited for her father coming back. She can't understand the bad things he had done. Stealing and sex are things she wouldn't understand. She doesn't know we aren't together anymore. I've lost all my feelings for him, but now he has to live with us. He left when Aqua was only a year old, he left me alone with a baby, with his baby. What was he thinking? I still hate myself for believing that he was drunk while having fun with Lucinda. Sure, I was gone and people weren't sure I was coming back, but he told me it was a week after I left. Well, Lucinda said it and he didn't deny it. Aqua is a beautiful little girl with very light blue hair and aqua eyes, hence her name. Now she's around four and is very much like her dad, minus all the pathetic flirting, but definitely has his playful side. I wish he didn't come here, I wish he would just never come back. What if he messes up again? Aqua couldn't stand losing him again! When I went to pick him up, I had Abby babysit Aqua in case Travis is violent or something like that. Well, really I didn't want Aqua see mommy yell at daddy. I was waiting for the gate to open, for his smug face to walk out of the doors. The gates began to move, I wasn't as ready as I thought I was. My breathing became fast, and some small part of me wanted him to come out so I could jump on him and give him a hug. I didn't feel that way anymore, I didn't want to love him. He walked out, and he looked just like himself, with a smiling face and no bruises. I expected someone with a thousand tattoos and missing teeth and a black eye, but it was the Travis I remember loving. He walked up to me, he seemed like he was expecting something, like a kiss or something. Ha, as if.
"Heyyyyy Katelyn. How's it going baby?"
He came to me putting his arms around my waist pulling me closer to him. I punched him as hard as I could and he fell to the ground.
"I guess we aren't ok?" He said in a high pitched weak voice.
"NO! OF COURSE WE ARENT! You left me alone for three years with a baby! Alone!"
"Look, I'm sorry! I was drunk and-"
"You expect me to believe that crap again?!"
"This time I'm being honest! Ask Aaron, he was with me the night I did it, he would tell you we were drinking outside the house."
Even if he was drunk I wouldn't forgive him. I still texted Aaron to ask him if it was true. He responded quickly saying it was. I still didn't care, it doesn't really change anything. He gets drunk too much, and if we were to get back together he would get drunk again and do something stupid again.
"Ok. So you were drunk, that doesn't mean you won't drink again."
"Aha, buts that is where you are wrong, three years in a jail cell, they don't exactly let you drink illegal substances in jail. So I'm not addicted to it like I was."
"I still can't trust you, what about the two times you weren't drunk and still ended up in Lucinda's bed?"
"First time, she gave me a potion, second time I thought you were dead and my parents were really pressuring me too move on and kept telling me every day you were gone that you were dead and you weren't coming back."
I was speechless, I still won't forgive him, but he does have reasons. He would have to prove himself if he really wanted any chance with me again. So now our new journey begins.
This was really just backstory to this story and I was just to excited and was not posting for awhile and felt like I really needed to recover for my absence and hopefully no long absences will happen again! I hope you guys will enjoy the new story!
