Miracle 2: Firefly

Chapter 11

After breakfast I just laid down on the couch with water and the lights off because a nap was needed. I have to admit, it was one hell of a night and morning. I did not picture myself as the type of girl that climbs through my ex-boyfriends best friends' bedroom window. It happened and I can't take it back. I got a message from Kinsey earlier telling me she was taking Andrew for the day so all of them could go to the zoo and spend some time with him. So, that is leaving me to sleep my drunkenness off on Aaron's couch.

My eyes closed shut and the sound of feet hitting the floor didn't even faze me. But, when my feet were lifted up and then put on someone's lap, then, I opened my eyes. I looked up at Aaron with my blue eyes and he looked at me with a sigh. I furrowed my eyebrows together and quickly sat up.

"What?" I snapped a little too harshly making Aaron roll his eyes.

"We need to figure out what we are going to do about Andrew. We need to go to court and figure out an agreement" Aaron spat out towards me making my heart shrink into little bits of nothing. Of course, he really didn't want to work things out. Why would he?

I shifted in my seat and shook my head in anger, "Are you fucking kidding me? I thought you wanted to work things out? I mean seriously quit playing with my emotions like that! I'm not one of your toys you played around with in high school. Shit, Aaron, I'm in fucking love with you and all I get is told that you want to go to court? I mean seriously, grow up."

I stood up off the couch and slipped on my shoes, "Mir-"Aaron whispered before I turned back around and fought back the tears. "I thought we could have worked this out, Aaron," I whispered fighting back every tear that was threatening to fall down my face.

"I thought you were going to go home and not return again" He stands up off of the couch and went to grab my hands, "Aaron, you are my home" I cried. I couldn't fight back anything any longer. Of course, I let my emotions get to me again. "You're my home and I just don't know why you won't fucking see that."

I pulled my hands away from him and turned on my heels to walk out the door, here I am walking out the door again. I never wanted to do this again, but here I am.

The concrete sidewalks caught my attention and I didn't even realize Aaron was yelling for me. His hand touched my shoulder and I let out a little shriek, "You're not walking away from me again. I won't be able to handle that. I know I screwed up, but this is all new to me. I don't know how it works Mir. I don't know how to be a parent or work together with someone else about the kid. I'm scared and I don't know what to do"

My wobbly legs wanted to give in and let me hit the concrete sidewalk that I was so interested in three seconds ago. "Let me help you. Let me help you become the father that Andrew would want." I murmured. A smile tugged up on my lip, "I can't walk away again. It's way too painful, so let me help you. We will be great freaking parents Aaron! He can play baseball and you and I will be the parents that jump up and down with excitement and take him to get ice-cream after a game. I want you to be my ride or die in parenting. I want to be a parent with you, I want you to hold me when I cry over his graduation and help me smile through the pain when he leave's for college. I want you by my side Aaron, so let me help you"

Before I could even think about what I said, Aaron picked me up off my feet and spun me around. My black hair flowed messily through the air making me get a few chills. "I love you Mir, I really do. I want you to teach me how to be the best"

I let my face talk letting the smile spread ear to ear, the thought of me and him working things out makes me feel like an angel that messed up but is given a second chance by God because it was an honest mistake. I never wanted to ruin my life with leaving, and for the longest time that is exactly what I did. I ruined my life while Aaron walked around with a frown on his face from losing me. I shouldn't be given a second chance but I got one.

"I have to go back to the hotel so that I can get washed up and talk to Andrew about moving back to Pennsylvania," I said while he slowly let my feet touch the ground. I kissed his soft cheek and he just wrapped me in his arms making me already happy with my decision. I'm not leaving here again because this is where I am meant to be.

~^~^~^~

I called Amara and I am just sitting in the hotel looking in the mirror. I just got done telling her that I want to move back to PA and she doesn't seem all that happy with me.

"I'm telling you that you can move here too! Your job is a piece of shit there anyway. But, all I know is that I need this for me and Andrew. So, please just let it sink in"

"Mir, I already told you that I was perfectly fine with it. You both need this, plus Jace and I pretty much hit it off and he's been texting me nonstop. Don't worry about me quit yet. Everything will be fine. I will see you later, and I'm gonna go to your house and stay because my sisters took over my house. I have to go now because my boss is coming in. I love you! Bye!"

Before I could say another word the line went dead. Okay then... Looks like I'm just stuck here with my thoughts. I need to start getting stuff figured out for the move back. A moving truck would be the best bet; I'll look into that tomorrow.
