Emerson's Pov 


I was sitting on the bed trying not to cry as loud so the boys wouldn't be hearing me. I still can't believe that Brantley did what he did to me. I looked over at the clock and saw it was already noon. I know the boys are getting hungry again. I slowly got up from the bed and walked over to the bathroom. My whole body is hurting me to move. As I got to the bathroom sink I looked in the mirror and saw the black eye I'm rocking. This is David all over again. I put my head down because I knew this was my all my fault. I left up my tee shirt and saw the black and blue marks on my side and some on my back. 

After I covered up the black eye as good as I can I walked out of the bed room heading to the kitchen. When I got there I saw a note on the kitchen Island. 

Darlin, 

I took the boys out for lunch and then going to the park. I'm sorry that I did what I did to you. Please understand it was all accented. I'm sorry. I told the boys that you was feeling sick. We will be home later.

Brantley.

That was nice of him to say he was sorry, but I shouldn't have said anything else to make him mad like that. I walked over to the living room and sat down on the lazy boy chair. I cuddled up with myself. I was holding onto myself when I felt the hot tears running down my face. I will never understand why people fight, or why a husband thinks he can beat on his wife like that. I know I will never teach my sons that it's okay for them to hit there girlfriends or wives. No matter what happens they can always talk to each other about there problems. 

I laid back in the chair. I might as well try to get some sleep before Brantley and the boys get home. I just hope he don't hurt them like he just did to me. If he ever does I think I would just kill him and be done with him. Or men at all. My kids mean more to me then some man does. 

I was in the kitchen doing some cleaning when the door opened up. I did sleep for 3 hours after I found out that Brantley and the boys all left around noon and it's going on 8:00 now. I walked over by the island so I can see who was coming in. It was my sons and my husband. Riker, Arlo and Finn all ran over to me. Brantley was standing behind them looking at me. 

"Mom, Brantley took us to the mall today." Riker said to me. I looked at him and smiled. 

"He did. That's great baby." I said to him. 

"Yeah. Riker and me got a new Wii and games." Arlo said to me. I smiled at him. 

"You did. What about you Finny." I asked my big 4 year old son. 

"Toys." Finn said to me. I smiled at him. Like he needs more toys. Poor kid has enough toys to last him for 3 more years from now.

"Mom can we hook up the Wii." Riker asked me. 

"Yeah. In your own rooms please." I said to them. 

"Sweet. Thanks mama. Love you." Riker said to me. 

"Love you too mommy." Arlo said to me. They both took off running down the hall. I looked down at my son Finn. 

"You want some Pjs on baby." I asked him. 

"I can do it mommy." Finn said to me running away from me. 

"I'll be right in there baby." I said to him. I looked up at Brantley and walked away from him. 

"Emerson please listen to me." Brantley said to me. I looked over at him. 

"No Brantley you listen. You beat me up today. Then while I was laying on the bed crying you took my sons, my kids that I gave birth too out and you spent money on them. What are you trying to do, buy there love." I asked him. Brantley looked down at me. 

"It's not like that." He said to me. I looked over at him. 

"Then please tell me then. Because where I am standing that's what it looks like for me." I said to him. 

"I fucked up. The second that I hit you I knew I made a mistake." Brantley said to me. 

"Then why did you keep on doing it." I asked him. Brantley looked down at the kitchen Island. 

"I don't know." He said to me. I looked over at him. I'm not going to keep fighting with him like this. I have 4 kids to get ready for bed. 

"If I find out that you touched one of my boys I swear to God Brantley I will kill you." I said to him. 

"I didn't. And I'll never hit you again." Brantley said to me. I looked up at him. 

"Okay. If you do it again I'm leaving. I don't care if we have kids together or not. But I'll be leaving with these 4 boys." I said to him. Brantley walked over to me. 

"It won't happen again babe. I'm sorry." Brantley said to me. I looked up at him. 

"Just so you know. David hit me more then once and I was the stupid one that stayed. I won't make the same mistake twice." I said to him. Brantley looked down at me. 

"It won't be happening again. I got you a few things." Brantley said to me. He gave me the bag. 

"If you really want to make it up for me you should have bought me a new car." I said to him. 

"Well we are doing that in a few days from now." Brantley said to me. I looked up at him. I might as well play it all out for everything. 

"Fine. I get to pick it out." I said to him. 

"Deal." Brantley said to me. 

"And I don't want you to get mad about the price of the car." I said to him. 

"I won't." Brantley said to me. I smiled up at him. 

"Good. I'm going to go look online for some cars." I said to him. 

"That's fine Darlin." Brantley said to me. I was about to walk out of the kitchen when I stopped and looked over at him. 

"And Gilbert one more thing. If I ever find whiskey in this house like that I'm done. One of the boys could have got a hold of that and they could have died on us." I said to him. Brantley looked over at me. 

"They are all gone." Brantley said to me. I smiled at him. 

"Good." I said to him walking away from him. 

I just hope he means what he says about never going to hurt me like that. Because if so God help him. I will leave this house and I will divorce him and take the kids with me. Yes even Dawson as well.
