The Changing{put on hold}

Chapter 8

Skylar's POV:

I rush out of bed and fling my door open. I run down the hallway and into my mother's room. I see her, with someone standing over her. I freeze as the figure snaps its head up to me in the darkness. I reach my hand out and practically grope the wall looking for the light switch. Once I find it, I immediately turn it on and light illuminates the scene.

I stare in shock as my own father stands before me, eyes red and puffy. He has his hands around her arms as if he was shaking her. My mom looks embarrassed as I look at her and him wide eyed.

"Sky" she says quietly. I just dismiss her.

I hear whimpering in the backroom and I stalk off to go investigate.

Down the hall I go down to the room which contains my little princess, Hayden. I open her door, and I immediately come into contact with the familiar pink walls.

She is standing up in her crib, her hair a mess, and she has her pacifier in her mouth. A big grin sneaks it's way on my face as I snatch her up into my arms and cradle her. I walk over to the changing table and get started on fixing her a new diaper.

After I'm finished I lay her back down so she can go back to sleep. I quickly make one more face at her and then am out of her room like a flash.

As I close my door I turn around to face Jaxon.

"Holy fuck Jax" I exclaim clutching my heart.

He giggles and tugs my hand to his room. I follow him in and tuck him in as well.

"I guess I'm playing mommy tonight?"

"Again" he says stubbornly.

I bite my lip and kiss his forehead before turning off the light and closing the door.

My parents room is dark, so I just go back to mine. I settle down and fall into a deep sleep.

Demetri's POV:

I'm awoken this morning by the motherfucking sun. Jesus Christ, its so early. I roll over in hopes of falling back to sleep, but find no luck. With a groan I pull myself out of bed and over to our bathroom.

As I splash water on my face I assess myself. I lift my hands and run them over my face, hoping to wake me up. When that fails I just give in and brush my teeth. After that I start on my hair. Styling it up in a quiff I'm reminded of Kylee. Kylee always liked my hair like this. I'm pulled out of the memory by pounding on the door.

"De?" my mom squeaks through the door.

"Yeah mom?"

"You have company"

I look at my reflection puzzled. Company?

A million ideas run through my head as I use the restroom and head downstairs.

I breathe a sigh of relief as I see Skylar's brown, bouncy curls. She turns around and runs to me. I wrap my arms around her and inhale her scent. Vanilla and syrup, sickly sweet.

"What's up buttercup?" I say teasingly.

"Just stopping by, I'm on my way to the lab."

My heart drops hearing her say that, but I recover for her sake. "Oh yeah? What are they havin' ya do today?" I say casually.

She thinks for a minute and chooses her words carefully. "History, for now"

I raise my eyebrow but dont press further. Her eyes travel down my body and slightly widen at the sight of my shirtless figure.

"Like what ya see?" I say, voice full of sarcasm.

"Nope" She fires back.

"Do I make you nervous?" I say stretching out the 'e'.

"Not one bit, its nothing I haven't seen before" she says nonchalantly.

"In fact I'm almost positive that Kody has better abs than you" she says with a smirk.

I eye her at her attempt to push me even farther.

"Oh yeah? So when did you get time to see those precious abs?" I grin at her.

She stops all together and her ears go red. I can tell I've made her uncomfortable, and I can feel my mothers eyes boring into the back of my skull from the stairs.

"It just happened, I guess" she says in a small voice.

"Enough De" my mother says sternly.

I groan and walk towards the fridge, I poke my head up and ask Sky her preference on breakfast.

"Nothing, and I should actually be going" she says as she makes her way to the door.

I stare at her as she walks out of the house.

Crap, Crap, Crap, Crap! Did my remark push her over the edge? Did I cause memories to pop up? Or does she really have to go?

I force myself to believe the latter.

A/N: Yay! I'm Back! Haha I hope you missed me and the story. I know I did. Now that the holidays are over I should be updating regularly. But I will admit that I'm going camping this weekend so expect slow updates(if that)
