Stop

You stood in front of Matt arms crossed across your chest in a X
"Matt I've been thinking"
He raised an eyebrow
"I'm listening"
You inhaled
"I....hate the fact....James and Melanie barely knew you"
He scratched his neck
"Yeah.....m-me too"
Biting your lip you asked
"Do you ever regret anything?"
"Uh missing twelve years of their lives"
You let out a choked laugh
"Matt"
He looked at you
"Let's start over"
You said a small shy smile creeping to your face
He grinned
"Yeah...let's start over"
You both embraced sealing the deal with a long passionate kiss
===++++
Months after Matt and you getting back together the two of you started a new chapter with the kids Melanie was thrilled to have her father back bombarding him with so many questions and tasks even with hugs and kisses
James on the other hand
Has been keeping his distance from Matt
Currently it's December the season changes and Melanie gets hyper for the holidays
James was sitting at the table he was busy looking at his phone
"Maybe we should go camping before it snows Matt?"
Matt tilted his head before he can answer James slammed his phone down
"No!.........I-I mean no that's stupid let's just stay home"
You gave Matt a questioning look
He shrugged
"Alright guess not"
He mumbled
James sighed in relief
And got up passing Melanie and went straight to his room
"What's wrong with him?"
You glanced at her
"I'm not sure"
Matt sat back on his chair and frowned slightly
"Dad why don't you talk to him?"
He raised an eyebrow at Melanie
"Hm..."
You bit your lip
"She's not wrong"
Matt closed his eyes for a minute
"....mngh alright"
He got up reluctantly kissed your cheek and ruffled Melanie's hair before making his way too James's room
"How much you wanna bet this will turn out terrible"
She grinned and you frowned
"Melanie-.......loser does the dishes for a week"

Matt's pov:
I stood at the door for a good two minutes
He's just a kid...jeez this is hard
I opened the door James was at his computer desk watching YouTube
"Yes?"
He asked swirling around in his chair
I closed the door behind me
"Hi"
He raised an eyebrow I took a good view of his room I've never been in here before
I know that's kinda sad but we don't really get along he had a Winchester Model 70 hanging on his wall I had one too
His bed was messy but the whole room was surprisingly clean his snake was in its case the heat lamp on keeping it warm his tv and consoles were left alone for now a gaming chair in front of the tv empty except for a sweater hanging on it
He cleared his throat
"Something wrong Matt?"
He asked frowning slightly
I blinked
"You ever used it?"
I said nodding to the rifle on the wall
"Once"
He said leaning back on his chair his arms crossed
I thought for a moment
"I want-...no...I am taking you somewhere tomorrow and we're leaving early"
He furrowed his eyebrows
"Wh-"
"Don't question it just be prepared we're leaving early"
I left the room leaving him
"Jeez I sound like my father"
I grumbled
<the next morning>
James leaned back in the passenger seat he was staring out the window
"Why so early the sky's not even up yet!"
He argued I rolled my eyes and continued driving
"Stop complaining....."
It took a few minutes to get to the destination Both mine and James's rifle in the back seats
His was customized to blend in with his surroundings mine had a silencer on it I used it to kill those greedy poachers
Parking the car I motioned him out he grabbed his and I grabbed mine
"Ugh walking"
He grumbled
"Hush...look we're here watch the sky"
I sat on the cliffs edges he sat too
"Why do I have to-"
He stopped his eyes widened as the sun rose spilling light everywhere
"Woah...."
"I've been dreaming of doing this with you since you were born..."
He looked at me
I looked down frowning slightly
"It's not often I regret a lot of things...."
He looked away
"Losing....your mother your sister....and you"
I felt shame
"Was my biggest mistake"
I drew a shaky breath
"James-"
"Stop"
He said abruptly
"J-just stop"
I looked at James
"Please"
His voice cracked pleadingly  holding his head tears obviously flowing
*CRACK*
We both looked up that sound
It was so familiar
*snap*
James slowly got to his feet I followed
"What was that?"
He whispered
The final sound confirmed what we were hearing
*clang*
James's pupils dilated his hand touched his scars as he whispered
"Bear trap"
