Newlyweds (A Brantley Gilbert Fan-Fiction AU)

Ava's Pov 

I was sitting in the kitchen with Brantley waiting on Kolby to call us with the news from Mason. I know that today was a strange day for both Brantley and Kolby with there father showing back up like that and having Mason with him. I just hope everything goes good with Mason. The look in Kolby's eyes I knew all he wanted to do was get Mason to a safe place to get cheeked out. But the look in Brantley's eyes was so different. I saw madness and pure hurt in his eyes. I don't know how two brothers can feel the same about a lot of things then on others can't see eye to eye at all. 

I got up to get more coffee for Brantley and I. It's going on 10 at night, and Kolby and Mason have been at the hospital for 6 hours now but no word yet. Ned and Savannah are sound asleep and John and Blake are watching a movie in the living room. 

"I'm going to step outside for a quick smoke." Brantley told me. I looked up at him. 

"Babe, I know you are worried just as much as I am--" The front door opened up. 

"About damn time." Brantley said to me. We both walked t the front door and saw Ms. Becky walking over to us. She didn't look happy at all. 

"Kitchen. Now." She said to Brantley. 

"Mama you need to think about your blood--" Becky cut her son off. 

"Don't tell me what to do Brantley Keith Gilbert. I'm your mother and I still will spank your sorry ass if I need too." She said to her son. 

"Mama, I'm 32 years old. You can't spank me." Brantley said to his mother. 

"Watch me." Becky said to Brantley. We all walked back into the kitchen and sat down. 

"I don't know where to start with you." Ms. Becky said to Brantley. 

"Mama what is going on?" Brantley asked his mother. 

"Your father showing up like that, or the fact that you gave that son of a bitch money." Becky said to us. I looked over at Becky.

"That would be me Becky. I was the one that gave Keith money to get out of the house. After hearing what he put you and the boys through I, I just wanted him out of my house." I said to my mother in law. 

"Well, I get that. But why did he show up like that. I mean what did he want. He showed up 20 some odd years later just for money?" Becky asked us. I looked over at Brantley. 

"Mama, Keith wasn't a lone when he showed up here." Brantley said to his mama. Becky looked over at me, then back at her son. 

"Who else was with him." Becky asked us. 

"I can tell you that one mama." We all looked up and saw Kolby walking over to the kitchen table to sit down. 

"Where have you been son?" Becky asked Kolby. 

"At the hospital." Kolby told his mother. 

"What's going on? Are you okay honey?" Becky asked Kolby. 

"I'm okay, but poor Mason isn't." The second Kolby said that my hands covered up my mouth. That poor baby. 

"What's going on man?" Brantley asked Kolby.

"Who is Mason?" Becky asked him. 

"Mama, Mason is Keith's 6 year old son. He left him here." Kolby said to his mama. 

"Where is he now?" Becky asked Kolby. He looked over at her. 

"He's in the hospital right now. He had-- has bruises all over his body, burn marks all over him. He has a broken rib as well." Kolby said to all of us.
