Blue Eyed Boy (Third Book in the I Was Loving The Wrong Man series)

Chapter 25

It's been a week since I've last seen Louis. Today is the day Lyssa can finally come home. "You girls ready to go?" Harry asks, taking our hospital bags in his hands. I nod and pick up the car seat holding the sleeping baby and follow Harry out of the room. We get to the front office and I check out. We walk to the parking lot and I see the space where Louis' car was once park. I hold back the tears and open the back door of Harry's car. I buckle Lyssa in and sit beside her in the back seat.

"Bo, you okay?" Harry asks, looking through the rear view mirror. "No. He promised he wouldn't ever hurt me again. He promised her wouldn't let me to raise Lyssa alone." I shake my head. "Riley, you're not alone. Liam, Niall, and your sexy bigger little brother are all here to keep you and Lyssa safe." He tries to make me smile but is serious with the meaning if his sentence. I turn my attention back on Lyssa, still sleeping in her car seat. "It's hard Harry." A tear trickles down my cheek. "I gave him everything and he just leaves me to take care of our daughter alone." I sob.

We pull into the driveway and more tears return to my damp face when Louis' car comes into view. Harry parks the car and orders me to stay inside while he goes to talk to Louis.

Louis' PoV

"Do you still think you're welcome here?" Harry bursts into the front door. "This is my house too ya know." I smart off to him. "It's like you think you didn't even do anything wrong! You are not welcome in this house any longer Louis. You've done enough already." He yells. I stand in my feet and walk closer to the front door. Riley and Lyssa are still waiting in Harry's car. "Harry, I need to talk to her." I order. "No. She gave you everything Louis and you just took it for granted. What ever happened to, ' I'll never hurt you again.'? Or, 'I'll never leave you to take care of this baby alone.'? You lied Louis. You've hurt her so many damn times, and she's gotten to her breaking point. The only way I will ever let you talk to her, is through a cracked car window." He argues.

Riley's PoV

"Louis, ugh! You're just so confusing. First, you say you love me. Then, you say you hate me and never wanna see me again. Now, you're trying to say you love me again." I groan. He sighs from outside the window of the car. "Riley, I'm confused. It's the side effects. My body still wants the drugs, but I don't want the drugs. I went and saw my doctor yesterday. He gave me some pills that I have to take everyday. They're supposed to help me stay on f2f of them. I only have to take them for four more weeks." He confesses. "Riley, baby, I'm sorry I hurt you. I never should've blamed you. We spent all of Christmas fighting. Can we please stop and love each other again?" He begs. I sigh and lay my head on the headrest. "Louis, I really want to believe you. But, if you want to get back together, you will have to allow me to sleep in your own room until the side effects of the drugs wear off." I negotiate. He nods. "Anything for you dear." A smile spreads across his lips. I unbuckle Lyssa and open the car door. I step out with her in my arms. I give him a kiss on the cheek. "I'm so sorry I blamed you for something you never did." He apologizes. I nod and walk into the house. What if what Louis said last week is true? What if I wasn't giving Lyssa the proper care while she was in the womb? I pass Harry at the front door and run up to Louis' old room. I lay Lyssa down in her bassinet and relax for a bit on my new twin bed. I close my eyes and think of when I first met Louis. It was at the concert. Harry had escorted me to the dressing room he shared with the rest of the lads. The while time we talked and caught up and told jokes, he was staring at me. His ocean blue eyes, piercing into my green ones. I remember when he asked me out on a first date. I was too scared to tell him about my past. I remember when he took my adulthood virginity and I got pregnant. I remember losing the baby and being told I might not ever be able to get pregnant and keep the baby. That was the first time I'd ever seen Louis cry.

I walk over to the wall that splits my room and Louis' room. I hear light sniffles. "God, I'm sorry for all the wrong I've done. I'm sorry for how I've treated Riley and how I abandoned Lyssa at the hospital. I don't understand why I blamed Riley for Lyssa almost dying. Sometimes it's like, it's like I don't know what I'm doing. I miss her sleeping next to me. I miss her in my arms. I think the pills my doctor prescribed me are helping. I just want her to know, I just want her to know I'm sorry. I'm sorry I've hit her. I'm sorry I've gotten her pregnant in the first two years we've known each other. I feel horrible for everything. I just want your forgiveness. Please. Amen." He sobs a prayer. He really hates himself that much? He really feels bad for what he's done? I sneak into the hallway and to Louis' door. I crack the door open and Louis props himself up with his elbows. "Riley? What are you doing in here? It's like," he looks over to the alarm clock. "One in the morning." He finishes. I walk into the room and close the door behind me. "I heard you. I heard your prayer." I walk over to the dresser and get out one of his shirts. I turn away and strip my shirt and jeggings. "Why do you still turn?" He asks. I pull the shirt over my head and crawl into bed with him. "Because I'm still fat." I whisper. He rolls his eyes and lifts my shirt. "Riley, that is just the left over baby weight. You are not fat. You're beautiful." He kisses my forhead. I blush and turn to where my body is facing the wall. "Riley, I meant every word I prayed." He wraps his arms around my waist. He rubs my stomach and smells the scent of my hair. I don't understand why he smells my hair. He always has. Tonight, it smells like cheap hospital shampoo. "Louis, I don't understand you." I start, Rollins over to where I'm face to face with Louis. "The exact moment our daughter is brought into this world, you insist on taking out all of your built up anger on me. You haven't even held her yet." He sighs. "Riley, I thought I was going to lose both of you. I was scared to death. I've never held a baby in my life time." He shakes his head. "Your first lesson in baby daddy starts in a few hours when she wakes up." He kiss his nose and dig my head into hus bare chest. "I love you." He whispers, tightening his grip around my waist. "I love you too, Lou." I yawn before falling into a deep sleep.

It is now four in the morning and Louis is trying to come up with dumb excuses to not hold his own daughter. "I better not hold her. I might have Ebola. It's going around ya know." He fake coughs. I roll my eyes and pit Lyssa in his arms. I show him how to support her head and take a few steps backwards to allow the two to bond. "Hi, baby. I'm your daddy. Or so I'm told." He jokes, moving Lyssa upwards some. I laugh and watch as he holds Lyssa with one hand and moves his pointer finger near her hand. She grasps his pointer finger with her tiny fingers. "I'm glad you're here. I'm sorry I yelled when you were born. I was just scared. I was scared of losing you. Now that I look back on it, the reason I lost you was for yelling. I just want you to know that whatever happens, I will always love you. I created you, Lyssa, and I just want you to grow up to be a smart little girl who isn't afraid to fight her own battles. I know that you will have to grow up with the fame and false friends, but I don't want you to let them get to you. If anyone ever hurts you or even tries, I will make sure they are punished. I love you and now that I finally have you in my arms, I don't regret ever having you." He kisses her forhead. I walk to him and take Lyssa from his arms. I lay the now sleeping baby in her bassinet and turn her mobile and Mozart on. Louis and I walk out of the room, turning off the main light before shutting the door. "Louis, I didn't know you were scared too." I hug him. He lays his head on my shoulder and sighs. "More than life."
