Sweet Revenge

Chapter seven

Xzavier

I made my way up the stairs and into our bedroom. I couldn't stand that she has brought that kid back here.

"Xzavier I-"

"No autumn. I don't want to argue but I don't want him in my home with my children , I don't like him and as the man of this house my opinion will be stated dammit!" I was in full rage.

How could she make a decision without me? We've always told each other everything, there were no secrets kept from each other.

"So he stays in his house alone? He's just a kid Xzavier and on top of that the kids like him"

"Doesn't sounds like they are the only ones that have taking a liking to the kid"

"Excuse me. I am a mother and when I see a child who's staying home alone like I have I'm going to make it my problem to help that person. Not just him but his parents also, they've gone and left me with their child so they know that an adult is looking out for him"

"So you bring him here! Why not just check up on him every once and a while for his parents but now you want him to stay in our home with our girls-"

"That's What it's really about isn't it. You don't want him to steal all of the shine you have from our daughter? You want to be the favorite in the house! I should've known you were so... petty!" She looked at me with so much hatred I didn't know if I could breathe.

She had it all wrong I just didn't want a teenage boy around my teenage girls in the same damn house! Who knows what could happen while I'm gone at work or when we're not looking. I won't let him ruin my daughters.

"Kitten-"

"You know what.... fuck You! Fuck you , fuck this house , fuck all of this shit because I'm gone. I'll take Ben back home and I'll check on him but I will not stay here with you anymore"

"What the hell are you saying" I furrow my eyebrows. She couldn't be for real , she's just angry.

"I'm leaving. I can't be in the same house as you right now because the way I'm feeling I might ask for a divorce"

I stood there stunned. How could she say something like that , why would she say something like that.

I am her husband and she is my wife , nothing could ever change that. I will never agree to a fucking divorce. That word wasn't even in my vocabulary.

"We don't fight for eighteen years and then all of a sudden when this kid comes you actually say that your thinking about divorcing me?! Don't you see he isn't good for our family!" She huffs and walks away to her walk in closet.

I watch as she takes her suitcase out and begins to stuff her belongings into it. I don't stop her because I know if I do it's not going to end well.

She needs her space and that's what I'm going to give her. As long as that kid leaves then I'll be okay to take care of the kids while she has her little break, she'll be back within a day or two this little stunt won't last long. She can't stay mad at me even if she tried.

Once she finally has all of the things she'll need she looks at me and then leaves the room. I follow her downstairs into the living room where all the other children are, they give the both of us questioning glances before autumn decided to say something.

"Ben , I'll take you home"

"Where are you going Mom?" Our son ask. I wondered the same question but I decided not to talk to her while she's still angry with me , she could be do some damage if she wanted.

"I'm leaving for a few days to let off some steam but I'll be okay baby" she kisses his forehead.

I'll admit I was jealous of my own son but who could blame me when she acts like that towards him. She doesn't care about me like she does him and that was what I was afraid of since the day I found out we we're having a boy.

He has her heart that once belonged to me in a way a mother should treat their son. I loved being only man she love but now I have to share that with jr , he looks just like me and yet she treats him like a baby and me like I don't even matter.

"Can I come?" He asked her , she shed an actual tear before she told him he couldn't.

She didn't shed a tear when she mentions a divorce from her true love but she cries when she tells him that he couldn't come with her for a few days! That's just great.

"W-Why not?!"

"Because she said it! You don't have to be around her twenty-four- Seven. You'll survive!" My anger got the best of me as I shouted at our son. I could see how bad she wanted to shred me into pieces for yelling at him but he always does this.

Even if she goes to the store he wants to go because he wants to be around her as if she's his women but she's mine and only mine!

"Your dad didn't mean that" she said through gritted teeth but smiled once she looked back at him.

"I'll see you later baby and you can call me every night and day it doesn't matter"

I had to refrain from rolling my eyes at this dramatic scene. He's twelve, he could handle himself but she treats him like a damn baby. Why can't I be treated like a baby anymore?

"Be a good boy for mommy okay?"

"I'll be your good boy mommy" he hugged her. This was getting weird as hell , she shouldn't call him that.

She said I was her good boy! But he always takes my spot! I start to breathe heavily, I close my eyes and try to concentrate but I could still hear them talking. It was killing me.

I should be use to it like the rest of my family but I can't when he just takes a piece of her away from me everyday. Now she's talking about a divorce, I couldn't handle that and she knows I couldn't. I would never live without her , I wouldn't know how.

"Bye my baby girls" she hugged all three of our girls but she came back and hugged jr once more.

"Jacob, you coming or..."

"I'm going to stay Someone has to get these kids in line while Xzavier's at work and your gone"

"Thanks baby brother" she hugged him and walked to the door with Ben trailing her.

My eyes widen and I run to the door in a hurry. She didn't say goodbye or even kiss me , she can't leave without it.

"Kitten! You forgot to say goodbye to me too" I gave her a smile , she didn't smile back though.

"Bye" she simply said before leaving the house. I stared at the door in complete shock , I didn't want to move or say anything. My kitten , my autumn, she's........ gone.

"Dad are you okay?" Someone from behind me ask. I couldn't pin point the voice but I knew it was one of them to say it.

I didn't respond to whoever said it. I walked up to our room and shut the door silently, as I walked to our bed the first tear slid from my eye followed by many other silent tears that slipped.

I felt as if my whole heart had been shattered, she didn't even kiss me nor did she act as if she was going to miss me. I failed. I've failed her in every way possible and I have to make this right because this feeling that I've been all to familiar with is going to tear our marriage apart and I won't have that.
