Hazel POV
I am walking into my apartment with Ian behind me who is holding a sleeping Aaron. "You can lay him on the couch. I'm going to wake him up so he can take a bath." Ian lays Aaron on the couch and I head to the bathroom to run some bath water for him.
I come out of the bathroom and stand over Aaron, "Aaron, wake up. Come to the bathroom and take a bath. You can sleep afterward." He slowly wakes up and looks around, I take his hand and take him to the bathroom.
"There is already a towel and a washcloth for you." He keeps his hand down and tightens his grip on my hand, "Do you want me to stand by the door while you wash up?" He slowly nods his head and I show him a small smile.
He walks in the bathroom and cracks the door. I slide to the floor and let out a long sigh, I can't remember if Ian left or not. I lean my head against the wall and close my eyes. I don't know how many minutes passed, but Aaron comes out in some pajamas. "Did you let the water out?" He nods his head and we walk back in the living room.
Ian comes out of the kitchen with some sandwiches and chips on three plates. "I was making him something to eat, but while I was making it I got hungry and decided to make some for me and you." He sets Aaron plate on the coffee table and hands me mine. He sits down on the sofa and I sit on the other end. Aaron takes a small bite of his sandwich, I look at Ian and he looks at me. "Thank you for today. I don't know what I would have done if you weren't there."
He shrugs his shoulders, "I just lost it after I read what he wrote down. I'm going to the police station after I leave here. We'll most likely have to meet there sometime tomorrow." I nod my head and we sit in silence.
Minutes later Owen walks in, "Hazel, are you here? I see your car and I think I saw Ian's car also." He walks in the living room and looks at us with confusion written all over his face.
"You have a kid?! Since when?! Why is Ian here?!" I roll my eyes and sigh, "No I don't have a kid and Ian helped me out with something at work. This is Aaron and he will be taking your room when you move out."
Owen's mouth drop and he looks over at Ian, "By the way Ian look so distant I can tell that the situation that happened with you was serious." I nod my head and Owen goes into the kitchen, "I packed up a few things already and I'm getting a whole new bed and furniture, so you can keep everything."
I take a sip of my drink, "Did you already order it?" He comes out of the kitchen and sits between me and Ian, "Yeah I did, I used the express delivery so it will all be here tomorrow." Owen looks at Aaron and looks back at me, "Does he talk?" I shrug my shoulders, "He hasn't said anything since he been with me and Ian."
I go get my purse and take out some pain medicine for Aaron, "Aaron take this and finish your food. You can sleep with me tonight." I pour the syrup in a medicine cup and hand it to him.
He takes it and then drinks his juice behind it. He continues to eat his food and I look over at Ian. Before I could say anything he stands up, "I'm going to head out, I'll see you tomorrow at the station." I nod my head and he walks to the door, "Wait! You're leaving now?! You didn't even go to work today, you should at least go there for a little bit."
Ian stops walking and looks at Owen, "Why aren't you at work, we're not supposed to leave until after 8:00, it's only 6:45. Why are you home so early?" Owen scratches the back of his head and lets out a nervous laugh, "I won't tell Malcolm if you don't tell." Owen says with his hand out for Ian to shake, "Deal." Ian shakes his hand with a small smile on his face.
He walks out and Owen closes the door behind me. "Looks like you have to pack up faster now, Aaron needs somewhere to sleep other than my bed if he stays longer than expected."
Ian POV
I am on my way to the police station when all of sudden my phone starts ringing. I look at the caller ID and see that it is a FaceTime call from Shane.
"Did you beat up some man to the point that he became unrecognizable?!" I look at the phone and see him and Lily looking at me with wide eyes, "Yes I did. Did Hazel already tell you?" I pick up my phone as I pull up in the station parking lot.
"Yeah she called me and you know I had to tell Lily." I let out a soft laugh, "So, I'm guessing that she told everybody else." Lily laughs and takes the phone away from Shane, "You know she did. Are you okay?" I look up from my phone and then back at it, "Yeah I am, I just lost it, but I'll talk to ya'll later, I have something to do." We hang up after that and I head inside.
I walk to the front desk and the woman smiles up at me, "Welcome, what can I help you with?" I lean against her desk and let out a frustrated sigh, "I would like to report an abuse. Go to this address and you will see a man who is unconscious laying in the middle of his living room." I hand her a sticky note with the address up there, "He beats on his nine-year-old child, right now the kid is at a friend of mine house. We will come back tomorrow with the kid, we want him to get some rest for the night." She types in the address and I give her my information and Aaron information.
"Thank you for giving us this information, we will see you anytime tomorrow." I shake her hand and walk out to my car. I pull out my phone and groan, "I never got Hazel number, I don't want to knock on her door without letting her know I'm on my way." I look at the time and decide to head to the club, I didn't go yesterday because I hurt my hand.
It takes me ten minutes to get to the club. I walk up to the entrance and see a line already, "Let in the first ten people or groups." I say to my guard as I walk past him. I go upstairs and look for the manager of the club, I walk in his office and he looks at me with a smile, "What's up Ian?! Its been a while since you've been here. The last time I saw you was opening night." I let out a soft laugh and give Bruce a man hug. "I know, I was going to come yesterday, but I had messed up my hand even more." He arches his eyebrow, "More? What happened the first time?"
I sit in front of his desk and sigh, "I punched a brick wall and then made it worse by punching a punching bag and some man." He starts laughing as he pulls out some papers.
He hands me the papers and I look at them. "The rating of the club has increased by a lot. Many people have recommended this club as a place to go to even when you're on a budget. Also many of the guest like how we let random people dance on stage."
I smile at the results and hand him back the papers, "Look at the list of people you let get in here without waiting and get free drinks." I look at the list and add Megan, Mason, Austin, and Matthew.
He looks at the list, "Is the girl you chased after up here?" I throw my pen at him and he laughs, "Write her name down for me." He lets out a laugh and looks at me, "What's her name?" I stand up and stretch, "Hazel."
He wiggles his eyebrows, "Did you rekindle a fire between you two?" I glare at him and he holds his hands up in surrender, "I'm just asking, that must have been a soft spot." I roll my eyes as I walk out.
I walk to my car and head home. On my way home I stop at the store to get some things for Hannah. I walk in the house and see Hannah watching tv, I put the bags down and go to kiss her on the forehead.
"How's your hand?" I show her my cast and sigh, "Doctor told me I made it worse by taking the cast off." She follows me to the kitchen and helps me put the things up, "What happen to your other hand?"
I shrug my shoulders, "Me and Owen were play fighting." She lets out a soft laugh. I know I lied to her, but I'm not going to tell her that I beat up some random man. I even feel like she would have a problem if she finds out that Hazel is my doctor.
I want to go to sleep, it's been an eventful day. I really wish that I have gotten Hazel number so I can tell her what time I'm coming tomorrow. I look at Hannah and let out a sigh, "I'm really tired from today, I'm going to go ahead and go to sleep for the night."
She looks at me and nods her head, "Okay, I'm going to stay up a little longer. Night, love you." I kiss her on the lips, "Love you too."
