Brantley's Pov
Today is the first day that my family is coming to see me. I've been in the wells center for a week now. I've been clean for 8 days and 16 hours and 24 minutes now. I'm not going to lie to no one when I say it was hell the first 3 days. I went throw all the withdraws, the throwing up, the trying to kill myself, but I've started to talk to some one and I'm getting off of everything. Not just for my family, which they are one of the biggest reasons, but for myself as well. I mean I shot my best friend and I pointed a gun at my step son, who I've been calling him my son. I need to get my life straighten up. I'm 32 years old with a pregnant wife. I need to grow up and be a man.
I just walked out to the yard so I can have a smoke. I've been taking meds for PTSD. Which mean's I've seen so much that I can't turn it on and off, the short answer. I looked at the clock and saw it was going on 9 in the morning. My family is going to be here at 10 to see me. I can't wait to see them all. I got a lot of apologizing to do with my sons, my best friends, my mama, my brother and too my wife.
Capt Wake came and saw me yesterday and we had a long talk, and after about 4 hours of talking to my counselor, I'm out of the Navy. I mean I was still in the Navy since I was 18 years old, but now I'm retired from that job. And I must say that retirement check is really nice. I'm not going too say, but I have enough to keep my family alive for the rest of mine and Ava's lives.
I just got done with my smoke when I walked back inside. I'm staying here at the wells center for another 3 weeks, before I'm going to come back home. That's only if Ava and the boys will let me. I let them all down so much and for that I'm the sorriest of them all. I let my family down. Well, never again. Once was enough. I'm getting better for them and for me.
I walked over to the room I've been staying here and sat down on my bed. I looked over at the only picture of my family I have. It's all of us all in different pictures that I've cut up in one big picture. It's not the nicest too look at but it means the world too me. I smiled at my wild bunch. they are nothing special, but they are my everything. I love them so much.
I put the picture back on the night stand and walked out of my room. My family is coming today and I want to see them the second they get here. I was about to walk outside when I saw my sons. I smiled at them.
"Daddy!" Ned yelled at me. He took off running for me. I bent down so I can get him.
"Daddy." Ned said to me again. I picked him up hugging him so tight.
