Tara

"Tara! Tara, wake your ass up right now!" August shook me viciously out of my sleep.

"What?" I sat up rubbing my eyes.

"Where's my son!" He yelled.

"What are you talking about?" I walked to the nursery to not see Kaiser in sight.

He took a deep breath, "Tara if you don't tell me where my son is I'm going to beat your ass."

I stood there silently and he snatched a paper attached to the crib. His eye skimmed over the paper and his jaw clenched. He walked up to me as I inched back into a corner.

"What is this?" He held up a piece of paper.

"I-"

"It's a note! From who, you ask? Kathy! How you let that crazy bitch come into this fucking house and take our son!" He was yelling so close to my face that I could feel his hot breath.

"The alarm-"

"Fuck the alarm! You couldn't have been sleeping that damn hard that you couldn't hear that bitch over the baby monitor!"

"Au-"

"Shut the fuck up! If something happens to my son you're dead to me." He spat before storming out of the room. The door slammed soon after that.

I was lost for words. Not because of what he said to me, he's honestly said worse. But because I don't see how I could've not heard her in my house.

I walked downstairs to see if August left yet, but he didn't.

"Put your shoes on." He demanded.

Before I could tie my other shoe he dragged me to the car by my arm. When we go into the car he handed me the note.

"Call the number." He said.

I did as he told and she answered on the first ring.

"I've been waiting for your call." She tried her best to be seductive.

August snatched the phone from me before I could get one word out.

"Bitch what the hell did you do to my son!" He yelled into the phone.

"Nothing. He's taking a nap right now. I'm sure you want him back so I'll give him to you in exchange for what I want."

"Which is?" He asked like a dumb ass.

"You and Tara. Especially Tara. I told you you wouldn't have a choice next time." She said.

"Fuck no. I'm not doing anything with you and neither is Tara. Now give me my son or I'll personally fuck you up."

"No." She giggled. "Give me what I want."

"Fine." He shrugged.

"I'll text you the address." With that being said, she hung up.

"August-"

"Tara I would just shut my mouth if I were you."

I sighed and sat back in the seat.

°•°•°•°

"I'm so glad you two could make it." Kathy smiled when she opened the front door.

I pushed past her and walked upstairs with August to find Kaiser. He laid in the master bedroom surrounded my pillows on the bed. I raced over to him and searched for any scars or bruises.

"I'm so sorry." I kissed his cheek.

This was all my fault. If I would've paid attention then this would've never happened.

"No, no, no." Kathy waved her index finger. "You're not going anywhere until I get a taste."

I laid Kaiser back on the bed in his original spot before standing up.

"Well you're gonna have to fight me for it because I'm not going down like a punk."

She walked up to me and grabbed my arm making me punch her to the ground with my free hand. I got on top of her and banged her head against the hardwood floor. Somehow she found the strength to push me off and climbed on top of me.

Her hand kept trying to creep its way into my leggings but I grabbed her hair and flung her off of me. I stood up along with her and pushed her into the vanity mirror causing it to shatter.

"You're such a fighter. I love it." She smirked.

I punched her one last time and she was out cold on the floor.

"Police!" Three officers came rushing in the room.

I called the police before we got here even though August didn't want to. I'm pretty sure why and I don't want to see him jeopardizing his freedom for murder.

"Y'all motherfuckers always late." August said. "We all could've been dead by now."

They ignored his comment and handcuffed Kathy before escorting her outside semi conscious.

"How do you feel about being motherless?" August asked Kaiser. "I'm just asking because I'm still debating on killing her or not."

"August, don't tell him that."

"I'm having a conversation, Tara." He rolled his eyes. "Anyways, let me know by tonight Kaiser because I could make it happen."

°•°•°•°•°

"You love me?" August asked me as he laid on my bed.

"I love you, daddy!" Kai yelled.

"I love you too princess but I'm gonna need you to use your inside voice." He chuckled.

"Right." She nodded, turning her attention back to the television.

August looked at me for an answer.

"Of course I love you crimson chin." I tugged his chin hair making him laugh.

"I'm going to marry you one day." He said out of nowhere.

"Not if you keep leaving me."

"I didn't leave you. All I want is for you to trust me."

"I do trust you." I half way told the truth. I wanted to trust him but a part of me couldn't. At the end of the day he did still proved me right by leaving me.

"No you don't but that's okay because I'm willing to earn it back." By the tone of his voice I could tell that he was more than serious.

Hearing him say that made my heart flutter a little. I never expected August to ever let those words escaped his mouth because he lets his pride get the best of him.

What we need is to communicate more but him being on tour seems to have helped us in a way, despite of what happened today. I really love August and I don't think I'll ever stop, but I just want us to work without something getting in the way.
