Miles POV

We all still trying to heal. Maya and I lost Luke 3 months ago. she's not the same anymore. She doesn't spend time with me or the kids anymore and she doesn't eat. I never thought that something like this would totally effect the one person I love more than anything.

We were all sitting tab the dinner table when Maya finally snapped.

"So Max, how was school?" I said trying to make conversation

"Ok"

"How about you Chloe?"

"Fine"

I looked to the other end of the table to see Maya playing with her food

"Maya are you going to eat?" I asked looking at her

"I'm not hungry..." Maya said putting her fork down

"Maya come on you have to eat something." I said trying to get her to eat

"NO!" Maya said slamming her hands on the table scaring all of us

There was a look in her eyes that I have never seen before, anger and hatred.

"Excuse me..." Maya said getting up and leaving the room

I got up to follow her. I got to our room to see her sitting on the bed

"Maya...you have to get over it." I said standing in the doorway

"I don't want to get over it! I lost our baby boy Miles! I don't want to feel like this but I can't help it!" Maya started crying and I just held her

"Baby it's ok! we can get through this, together!" I just held her as she cried her eyes out
---------------

It's been a month since Maya's breakdown and she's gotten a lot better. She spends time with the kids and me, she finally slept with me for the first time again a week ago.

We were sitting on the couch in the living room with the kids watching tv. Chloe was sitting in the chair with Maddie on her lap and Max was sitting on the floor, while Maya and I were snuggling on the couch together.

We were all watching Harry Potter, Maya's choice obviously, when I felt a hand on my leg

I looked at Maya and gave her a questionable look and looked back at the tv

Maya put ran her hand on my inner thigh

"Maya what are you doing?" I whispered to her

"What? I can't touch my husband?" Maya said smirking

"Well you can but, the kids are right there." I said to her

"Well then we have to be really quiet!" Maya said

She ran her hand higher and higher up my leg. she finally got to her destination and I flipped out.

"Ok kids time for bed!" I said picking them up and running up the stairs

Maya just laughed
