Lindsey awoke a good amount of hours later, the apartment was deathly quiet, he reached out for Stevie thinking she might have crawled in but realised she wasn't there
"Babe?" He called out, sitting up and swinging his legs over the bed. He stood up and walked into the living room, "Stevie?" He began to get worried
"Steph?" He checked the bathroom and the balcony, still no sign. It finally hit him....she want there
"Oh my God no" grabbing his head he felt the guilt hit him like a train, she was supposed to be in bed most of the time
The baby had to have a specific diet, she needed rest, she was so fragile! A thousand thoughts ran through his head, why did he treat her that way?!
Running out the door he knew he had to find her, and find her quick, he wouldnt lose her or his daughter
She wouldn't be able to survive in her condition on the streets. Another thought came to mind and made him physically sick, what if Jimmy found her?
Searching the places that he found her before he still couldn't find her, he had to stop to throw up from worry
He decided to check all of the homeless shelters. It was getting close to lunch time so everyone would be gathering to eat
He went to all of the ones he knew and she wasn't it any of them, as a last resort he checked the dinner where she used to work
There she was sitting in a booth drinking a coffee...
"I know our life isn't perfect, I just didn't think it was worth being homeless over," Lindsey said from behind her
Stevie turned around looked at him and turned back away from him again
"Stevie, talk to me," he sat in front of her
"I want to move out..." she said looking into her cup
"No you don't," he shook his head in disbelief
"Yes I do, I don't want you anywhere near my daughter..." she let a tear fall down her face
"Baby...why?" Not remembering anything from last night
"Because I hate you! She doesn't need someone like you in her life, so I don't want you in it"
"Stevie, I-I don't understand," Lindsey began to tear up
"First you get drunk and high, then you are horrible to me, then you went out and fucked someone else and bragged about it the next morning!"
"What? Stevie, what the fuck are you talking about?"
"I told you to go and have sex with somebody else...and you did...how could you do that to us, you said you loved us"
"I love you with all of my heart. You know that if I would have been sober I never would have done it. I promise- I'll give up the pot and the drinking."
"It's too late! You've blown it Lindsey" she wiped her tears away furiously
"Stevie, please. You need someone to take care of you," he begged
