Jobs, kids and her

12

The next day came. I woke up to the sound of my son and my boyfriend arguing downstairs. I don't even want to talk about what happened with me and Regina. I stood up and walked out of my room. The sound of them arguing got louder as I went down the stairs. Once at the bottom I saw them in the lounge. I stood in the doorway to listen.

"Your not my dad! I don't want you as a dad!" Freddie shouts as he got into Fred's face.

"Well your not much of a son yourself" Fred snapped full of anger.

I walked in and they both looked over at me. I saw my son looking upset at me but trying to hide it with anger. I looked at my boyfriend and saw he was just frustrated.

"What's going on" I softly asked looking at them.

"I don't want him as a dad" Freddie says loosing any anger in his face.

"I am your dad you idiot" Fredrick snapped now looking at Freddie.

"Don't talk to my son like that" I say as I walked into the room calmly.

"Our son!" Fred growled as he looked around at me.

"No he's my son. We talked about this. Freddie is my son until he is ok with you as his dad. He's not ok with it so leave it" I replied while placing my arm around Freddie's shoulder.

"This is ridiculous. I'm his father. He's half of my DNA. You named him after me" he says in anger at me.

"Fredrick don't start. Freddie can you go upstairs please" I ask looking at my son softly. Freddie nodded and left the room. I looked back at Fredrick still tired and calmly. "What are you doing? You can't force him to call you dad" I sighed looking at him confused.

"Well I am his dad" Fred says getting in my face.

"Fred get out my face" I request calmly but actually really annoyed.

"Why? What's wrong with it" he asked moving closer.

I stepped backwards since I didn't want him in my face. He looked confused and stepped closer.

"Get out of my face" I snapped now pushing him backwards.

Fred looked angry at me. I saw his fist go to hit me. I caught it in the air and spun his arm around and down. I then punched him in the face with the hand that was free. He stumbled back and looked confused.

"Ouch" he says still confused at me.

"You tried to punch me. Your not exactly a very good army cadet. Hitting a woman" I replied looking angry at him.

"I was never an army cadet. I lied so you'd take me back. I actually left because I didn't want a baby but now I do" he sighed as if I was stupid to believe him.

I frowned hard and punched Fredrick so hard in the face again. He wiped the blood from his nose and looked angry.

"Get out now. Don't think about coming back" I say pointing at the door.

Fred stood up and walked out the room. Freddie then walked in and looked worried at me. I held my arms out and he hugged me quickly.

"Can you do me a favour" he asked as he pulled away to look at me.

"What is it" I asked with a slight smile to my son.

"Go talk to Regina. You know she loves you" he says with a slight chuckle like I'm stupid.

"Freddie she told me she doesn't" I replied as I sat on the sofa.

"Are you kidding me? It's so obvious she loves you. I could see it when I was 5 that she loved you and to be honest your not exactly the best at hiding it. Now go get her to confess" he orders as he points to the door.

"Freddie" I sighed.

"Now" he interrupts quickly.

"To shut you up I'll go" I say as I stand up.

I went upstairs and quickly changed into some casual clothes. I fixed my hair before going back downstairs. I looked in the lounge to see Freddie sat on his phone.

"Good luck" he says with a wave.

I chuckled slightly and left the house. I drove down to Regina's and saw her in the kitchen. She was leaning against the island looking stressed. I saw Monica wasn't there. I went to the front door and knocked. After a few seconds it opened.

"Emma? Ow hey" Regina says a little surprised to see me.

"Hey. Can we talk" I ask softly with a slight smile.

"Sure. Do you want to come in" she asked now moving out the way for to me come in. I stepped in and she closed the door. She looked a little awkward at me and placed her hands in her jacket pockets. "What's up" she asked smiling slightly.

"I broke up with Fred" I say looking down awkwardly.

"Ow em. How come" she asked placing her hand on my shoulder.

"He was a jerk. A huge jerk" I sighed not actually that disappointed I'm over with him.

"Why are you really here Emma? I can tell your not disappointed by it so what's really up" Regina asked looking at me like I'm stupid.

"Did you lie to me yesterday? Lola told me that you confessed to her you were in love with me. I have seen that look of love you keep giving to me and not Monica. Freddie said even he can see you do. Tell me the truth. Do you love me" I asked holding both her hands in mine and looking in her eyes.

"Emma... I told you. Now let it go" she softly says stepping backwards but keeping hold of my hands.

"Yes she does love you" Monica says from the lounge door way.

Regina's wife just told me Regina loves me. Now I'm confused. Regina looked round at her quickly and let go of my hands.

"What" I asked confused still.

"Monica!" Regina snapped looking annoyed.
