Broken

Broken- Chapter seventy eight

I took Byron out of the car seat and when I entered the house I saw Zack sitting on the couch. He looked up at me and smiled but it faded away after he saw me with a baby.

"Uhhh...wanna explain?"

I laughed nervously, "This is Sean's baby. I killed his mom because he tried to kill me. But Sean didn't know he had a baby. But I couldn't leave an innocent two year old crying home alone. I'm not that bad."

I took a breather when I was done and when I looked at him he just pursed his lips before getting up and going to his room.

Wow. Maybe it was just too much to take in.

I wonder how Sean's gonna react?

I walked in without knocking and he was sleeping. I walked closer to his bed and I felt kinda bad when I saw his hand was bandaged.

I looked at Byron and and pointed at Sean, "That's daddy."

I rocked him on my hip and he giggled. He put his fingers in my mouth and I pretended to kiss them, "Shhh...daddy's sleeping."

He held my face with both of his hands and placed a kiss on my cheek.

"Don't you miss mommy?"

I shouldn't have said that because he started to cry. Oh my gosh.

"No no no baby don't cry. Oh I'm sorry."

Sean started to shift and he turned to lie on his back, "Why do I hear a baby?"

His voice was groggy and it sounded so fucking hot. No Faith...you're mad at him.

He spotted me and he sat up so fast I thought he broke his back.

"Um Faith...why do you have a baby?"

"First of all I am still very upset with you. And secondly-"

"Did you kill her?"

I laughed humorlessly, "Wow. You're so pathetic. You care more about her than listening to me tell you something that is actually very important."

"No I just don't want you killing an innocent woman!"

"Do not yell. There's a baby here."

He yawned and I smiled. I walked out of the room and I heard Sean calling after me but I ignored it. I took Byron to my room and i rubbed his back and sang to him until he fell asleep. I put pillows beside him so he wouldn't fall and I put my blanket over him. I found a pacifier in Jessica's kitchen and I brought it with me. So I let him suck on it while he slept.

Wow I really want a baby.

I walked back to Sean's room and saw him pacing and pulling at his hair. When he saw me he came up to me, "Explain...now."

I glared at him, "I'll explain when I want you cheater."

He sighed and turned around and sat on the bed, "Look I'm sorry okay. It was a -"

"Mistake," I rolled my eyes. "Okay so what I'm about to tell you is extremely crazy so prepare yourself. I don't know how to say this Bryon, he's your baby."

He looked at me and rolled his eyes as if he didn't believe me.

"I'm serious. It's Jessica's baby-"

"And why the fuck do you have her kid?"

"Because she's dead."

"I told you not to kill her what the fuck!"

"Stop cursing there's a baby across the hall and don't yell because he's sleeping. Now...as I was saying. He's two years old and she told me y'all broke up two years ago. She told me it was your kid. She put your last name on his birth paper though which is weird as hell. And we were actually great friends for a whole hour. Until I heard her talking on the phone that she was going to kill me. So I killed her before she had the chance. She threw a knife at me for God's sake. Plus, I took down one of the drug lord's minion, which is what she was, so yeah. It all worked out."

He looked stunned for a while as he processed the information and he was about to talk but I interrupted him, "Oh and she was actually stalking you. She drugged your drink so you didn't sleep with her. You just woke up naked cuz she stripped you and she told you y'all slept together. I just wanted to be mean to you for a few more minutes...just for fun."

"I..I don't know what to say...I have a son. I'm a dad," he looked at me, "I'm sorry I jumped to conclusions that you killed her...well you did but she tried to kill you first so it doesn't count."

"I actually wasn't going to. Like I really thought she was my friend."

He smiled at me, "Faith, I'm a father."

He hugged me and I laughed, "Yeah you are."

He held my hand and looked into my eyes, "You're gonna be a great mom."

I blushed and let out a breathy laugh, "What? Sean I don't think Ed is gonna let us keep the baby," my eyes glossed a little bit when I said that.

"But you want to. I saw how you looked at that baby. It's like you already love him."

I leaned over and kissed him, "Let's go talk to Ed."

"But who's gonna watch the baby?"

"Oh this is gonna be good."
