The next morning you wake up to find Erik missing. You walk out of his bedroom to find him in the kitchen making breakfast. "Erik Stevens cooking breakfast that's a sight I never thought I'd see!" You say watching him cook. "Baby girl you should know by know that I can throw down in more ways than one." Erik says with a smirk. "Shut up!" You laugh as you sit at the kitchen table. Nice Erik is finished the two of you sit and eat your breakfast. After breakfast you mention to Erik that you had to get ready to leave. "Nah you ain't leaving you're staying right here." He says as he pulls you closer and kisses you. "As much as I would love to stay I really do need to leave." You say pulling away from Erik to go get ready. "I have to go pick up the rest of me and Angel's stuff from Dom." You continue as you walk into his room. "You need me to go with you? I can be your backup." Erik says following you into his room. "Nah I'm good." You tell him. "You sure?" He asks. You stood there for a minute contemplating if you really did need Erik to come with you. "I take that as a yes." Erik says. "Now that I think about it we do have a lot of shit and I doubt Dom's gonna be home because he works today." You tell Erik.

On the way to pick up your things you call Dom's office to make sure he wouldn't be at home. His assistant informed you that Dom was in a meeting, you hang up and continue to your house. When you and Erik get there you notice Dom's car in the driveway. "What the fuck! Why is he here." You say angrily. "Wanna come back later?" Erik asks. "Nah I need to get this over with now, you stay here if I need you I'll come get you." You tell him. Knowing what could possibly happen if Dom and Erik were in the same room together, you wanted to keep them as far apart as possible.

You walk inside and go to your room to get your stuff and notice you have heard or seen Dom since you walked in. Which made you think that maybe he wasn't here or he was in his home office. Not wanting to be bothered with him you grabbed a few of Angel's things and start walking to your car. Erik gets out to help you and you remind him to stay put because you knew at some point he'd make his way into the house. You walk back in and see Dom sitting on the stairs. You walk pass him and make your way up the stairs. He follows you into Angel's room and watched as you grabbed a couple of bags and walked back downstairs not saying anything. "Can we talk?" Dom says watching walk down the stairs. "I have nothing to say to you." You say walking out hoping he doesn't follow you out. You hand the bags to Erik and walk back inside. "Y/N please just talk to me." He begged. "Why are you here? Your assistant told me you were at work." You tell him. "I was but my assistant told me you called and I figured you were here." He says.

Getting annoyed you continue grabbing the rest of your stuff. Fortunately for you Dom stayed inside every time you walked to your car. He remained on the stairs the entire time. As you walk by Dom you tell him that you left him something on the counter. He gets up to go look and you get the last of what's left. You walk back down to see Dom looking upset as he looks up at you. "Divorce papers. Fucking divorce papers! Are you serious Y/N!" He yells. You ignore him and keep walking. "We don't have to do this baby we can work this out." He continues. "It's too late for that Dom!"

You say walking out. He follows you out and continues talking "You're not leaving me Y/N!" Dom says grabbing your arm. Dropping your bags you turn around and slap him. "Don't ficking touch me." You yell. Erik gets back out of the car and comes towards you. "Ay bruh you need to chill the fuck out." Erik says. "Y/N who the fuck is this?" Dom asks. "Erik get back in the car." You say knowing what's about to happen. "Erik? The same Erik that left you years ago? You leave me and go back to this punk ass nigga?" Dom yells. Taking off his coat and his shirt Erik steps up to Dom as Dom swings at him missing. Erik swings back twice hitting Dom both times. Knowing that this is gonna end horribly you try breaking it up. After persuading Erik to get back in the car the two of you leave. "What the fuck was that I told you to get back in the car." You yell. Erik remained silent putting his shirt back on. "I know I'm sorry but he was basically asking me to whoop his ass." Erik laughs which makes you laugh in response.

You drive back Erik's apartment to drop him off and make your way to you parents house. You talk your mom about finding a place to live and she offers to let you stay with her and your dad. "It took you 18 years to get me out of your house now you want me back. You laugh. "I'll never get tired of having you and Angel around and if you're really serious about finding another place then you'll only be here a week or two." She said. You thought again about what Erik said about moving in with him and being that your mom didn't know that Erik was back in your life you told her about it. Shocked and somewhat happy she tells you that if you felt like you could make this work then go for it. You text Erik telling him to meet you and you later leave making your way to your destination. You get out the car and see Erik sitting on a bench. Once he sees you he gets up and kisses you on the cheek. Erik then gets down on his knee and looks up at you. "Erik this is Angel. Angel this is Erik." You say looking at them as they look at each other.
