A/N LONG CHAPTER AHEAD. HOPE YOU ALL LIKE IT. 

Blake after he got beaten up badly. 

Brantley's Pov 

I've been working from home the past week now. Ava got 2 weeks off from her doctor and since all of this happened to Ava, I chose not to go to work for a few days. Ava needs me more. Finding out the whole story on Ava, makes me feel a little dumb. All of the signs was there. Ava always let Blake get by with a lot of things he shouldn't have. When he got busted with pot Ava paid all of the fine's for him and paid his bond to get out of jail. I just wish Ava would have told me. I can see why she hide it from everyone, but it was still wrong on her part. 

I've been looking at the same piece of paper for the past hour now. I just can't think straight. I have a lot of different things going on my mind. I walked out of my office and walked into the kitchen to get me some more coffee. Ned is at school today. I have no clue where Blake is. I'm still having a hard time with that. I've spent so much time hating him and thinking he is my brother in law, but find out he is my trouble step son. Hard to believe. 

I've been staying in the office for the past couple of nights. I don't want to go to the bed Ava and I made love in so much. Losing our daughter was hard enough for me and now losing another one, something have to give some time. I lost so many people in my life. My father, my 2 buddies I've met while I was in the Army and 2 kids. I don't know how many more people that I love, I have to bury. I'm just glad that I have Ned. He is an angel from heaven. I'm thankful for him. He is the one that gives me enough hope to have more children with Ava. 

I walked back into my office and saw that the school that Blake goes to called me. I walked out of the office and walked into our room. This would be the first time I've been in this room since Ava and I had a long talk. I opened up the door and saw that Ava was on the phone. She waved me to go over to her. So I did. I sat down next to her. I looked more at Ava's face and saw she has been crying. 

"Okay. Thank you so much. My husband and I'll be right over." Ava said to the person on the other line. My guess would be an office worker. 

"Well." I said to her. 

"He got in trouble. Blake got in a bad fight." Ava said to me. Great. Ever since Ava told him the truth that's all that boy has gotten into. One fight after another. 

"What are you going to do?" I asked her. Ava looked over at me. 

"We have to get him from school. He is out of school for 3 weeks now." Ava told me. I looked at her. 

"Your shitting me." I said to her. Ava got her things ready to go and get Blake. 

"Nope. So come on Brantley he needs us." Ava said to me. I looked at her. 

"He's your son you deal with all of this." I said to her. Ava looked at me. 

"What? Brantley, I know you are mad at me but he is still my son." Ava said to me. I looked at her. 

"Well, I have a lot of work I need  to get done. You can handle this can't you." I asked her. Ava looked really sad, but I don't want to deal with this. Not now. 

"Oh okay. Yeah I'll be back soon." Ava said to me. She walked out of the bed room. That look on her face, I knew I just hurt her even more. 

"Wait!" I yelled after her. I walked out of the bedroom. I walked over to her.
