Baby proofed [Brollins]

Epilogue

Becky's POV

Three years later

"Momma are you okay?" Emmery asked poking me.

"Yes I am, I just have the flu" I explained tiredly.

"Mama when can we go to the park?"

"When daddy gets home from the work, he has a class"

"Oh. When's daddy coming home?"

Feeling irritated and wanting to be left alone, I tried to remind myself she's only four and doesn't mean harm.

"Emmy why don't you go play in your room and wait for him, I'm tired and I just told you I'm sick"

"But what if it just lay really quietly next you" she said.

I sighed, "I'm going to get you sick and I don't want to deal with that on the road"

"I promise I won't"

"Fine. Now no more talking. I will pay you five dollars if you just sit quietly"

She gasped in excitement before cuddling next to me. After a moment she whispered cautiously,

"mama, you feel hot"
"Zip" I said. She giggled before going silent.

When I was about to fall asleep twenty minutes later, regardless of the koala on me I heard Seth walk into the room. He chuckled at the sight before walking over to Emmery.

"Hi princess, what are you doing" he said as she jumped into his arms.

"Shhh daddy, mommy's sick and she said I get five dollars if I'm quiet!" She said in a whisper shout.

"Alright, alright, how about you go play in your room so mommy can rest" he said.

"But momma said we were going to the park" she pouted.

"Em, be patient. Mommy sick and we have to take care of her. She takes care of you when you're sick, right?" Seth said reprimanding her behavior. She simply nodded in response. "So go give her a kiss and let's go to your room" he said.

A second later Emmery was placing a kiss on my cheek and she whispered a "feel better momma" before jumping into her fathers arms and being led to her room. I smiled at her innocence but found it hard to keep my eyes open so I kept them closed.

After a couple minutes Seth came back into the room and brushed some hair out of my face.
"Are you still feeling sick?" He asked. I tried to nod but my brain like it was weighing my head down so I stuck to just a simple "mhm." I then felt his cool hand on my face.

"Becks, you're burning hot. I think we should go to the hospital. You've been like this for two days" Seth said.

"I don't wanna go" I whined feeling tears prick my eyes. The flu makes me sensitive and I didn't really feel like getting poked and prodded with needles.

I felt the bed dip on the other side. Seth stroked my hair and placed a kiss on forehead, "come on love, it will make you feel better. Ill be with you the whole time and I'll call Bayley and ask if she can watch Em while we're there."

I sighed knowing that I wasn't going to win this conversation, he was worried and wanted me to get a check up plus it felt good to be taken care of even though I feel like shit right now but I'm used to taking care of others.

"Alright, go make the call" I said and he gave me a quick peck before stepping out to call Bayley. In the meantime I got changed out of my warm pajamas and changed into some leggings, a t-shirt and a warm jacket.
