Our Time In Another Universe.

Chapter 27 "Moving on."

Through a difficult process this both Caira and Alex slowly recover from their situations of long term abuse. Both had support from different peers. More awaited.

Caira's Point of View.

It felt like peace on earth. I hadn't felt this good in weeks. I finally managed to get at least a bit of sleep. What was I doing right now? Talking with Corbin, of course, he was protective, especially of me but, we were talking about bending actually and going back into work, plus training with Goku and Vegeta for our saiyan abilties. I was considering going back to the job I was forced to quit back then. "So you're coming back so soon?" Corbin asked, taking a sip of tea.

"Yep. Besides, I have to. For my kids." I gestured over to Connor and Blaze who seemed as if they were helping Ronan start walking.

"You know you don't have to so quick." Corbin said, having a brow raised. "It's only been a few months. Don't do it just because you feel obligated."

I gave him a nod. "I know, Cor. But, I think I'm ready to do it. Please?" I asked.

Corbin gave a sigh before slowly bowing his head. "Ok, we'll find a good time to head to the station."

"Thanks, Corbin. I appreciate it." I said, he nodded.

"You know I love you, ok?"

"I do too." I said.

Just then, a knock came to the door, we both stood up and walked over to it. Connor beat us to it first. "I'll get it!" He shouted, reaching for the door knob and opening it.

"Connor wait!" I said, rushing to my son and picking him up. I fully opened the door to find a group I never expected to see in my life. I smiled. "Abby! Guys!"

"Hey!" Abby said, walking in. "How have you been?"

"I'm good! How about you guys?!"

"We're good too! Hi Connor!" I saw Keith smiling at my son, who waved a bit while trying to hide his face in my neck a bit.

"It's ok, Connor." I reassured him, rubbing his back a bit before eventually, all of us moved onto talking. Just then, another boy played with Connor and Blaze, brown hair like Aiden's and Abby's skin. I grinned before looking to the two. "So you and Aiden had a kid eh?"

"Yep." Abby said, a smile on her face.

"To be honest though, Jayson doesn't really talk much. Every once in awhile he says a thing or two but, most of the time he's silent." Aiden explained, watching as Jayson, his son, clashed toy swords with Conner. "What about you?"

I took a deep breath before looking back to my three kids. "We've been moving on." I said, receiving nods of understanding.

"So, I hear you're going back into business." I looked to find Desmond smirking a bit.

I chuckled, nodding a bit. "Yep, I am. I might go on down to the RPD later and ask Leon if he could put in a good word for me."

"He'll get you back in, I'm sure." Desmond chuckled along with me.

"Hey Corbin." Keith called out. "You got a girl yet?!"

We looked at Corbin who was blushing and shook his head staring back down at a sleeping Ronan. "I do not plan on having any romances at the moment."

"Cor, come on. Would it hurt you to at least go on ONE date?" Desmond questioned, a brow raised only to receive Corbin shaking his head.

"Yea Corbin, you gotta at least get laid." Another friend of ours, Desmond Rivera laughed a bit along with the others.
