Memories [Book 2] [A Langson Fan Fic]

Twenty-Five

The next morning, Olivia went downstairs and found her husband sleeping on the couch. His laptop was sitting on the table and Olivia knew that he had been up late looking for the man that was marrying Angie without any warning. The one that expected Ember to spend some nights at his home without them even knowing each other.

"Trevor," Olivia whispered as she moved to where her husband laid. She reached out and gently caressed his cheek as she waited for him to wake up.

"What's happening?" Trevor asked as he opened his eyes quickly.

"Nothing babe... I just wanted to wake you up and send you back to bed."

"No... I can't go back to bed. I need to find this guy." Trevor grumbled.

"Trev, don't worry. We will figure this all out in no time." Olivia spoke. She sat down beside her husband before starting to gently rub his back. He stood up after a few minutes before looking down at her.

"This was supposed to be a happy time, Olivia. Not the time where we freak out because our daughter might be exposed to an ax murderer." Trevor breathed.

"I'm still happy, Trevor. Aren't you?" Olivia asked slowly as she stood and eyed him. Trevor closed his eyes before they both heard Garrett cry for his mother from upstairs. 

"Go get him. I'm going to head to the office." Trevor spoke, before kissing the top of his wife's head before heading to his home office to gather what he needed before leaving.

"Maybe he isn't happy anymore."

Trevor got home after Garrett had been laid down for his nap. Olivia was out back with the girls as they worked on the garden that the four of them had started together. Trevor stopped by the sliding glass door and watched as Olivia brushed hair away from her forehead before leaning back a bit and closing her eyes. He was wishing that he hadn't been so short with his wife this morning because then maybe they'd be ready to tell the girls about their surprise.

"Hey, girls," Trevor spoke, as he opened the door and walked back onto the porch. Olivia looked over at her husband before looking back down at the plants she and the girls were taking care of.

"Hey, Daddy!" Ainsley exclaimed.

"Hey, Ains. How was today?" Trevor asked.

"It was good! But where were you? You were supposed to go on that bike ride with me!" Ainsley exclaimed. Trevor swallowed hard as he frowned.

"I'm sorry, love. Tomorrow we can try again... I had to go to work and do some research. But I'm here now and I think if Momma is fine with it, it's time to tell you all some big news." Trevor spoke.

"Trev, it can wait. I'd like to know what you found out today at work." Olivia spoke, but the girls weren't having any of that. They wanted to know about the big news that their father had brought up, even if their mother didn't seem ready to tell them.

"Mom, c'mon. Let us know." Ember smiled, as she wrapped her arms around her mother's neck and hugged her tightly. Olivia sighed before nodding towards her husband. Trevor sank down onto the edge of the deck before looking at his daughters as they waited eagerly.

"So since Momma has quit her job, we decided that we'd like to expand our family. And before you ask, there will not be a dog, cat, or lizard in this house." Trevor spoke.

"So is this you telling us that you are trying for a baby?" Ember asked, and Olivia shook her head as she took her gloves off before tossing them into the basket behind her.

"No, it's more like we are telling you that I'm pregnant. It's still early, but we are excited about giving you four a new brother or sister." Olivia spoke. She looked over her daughters that had wide eyes and smiles plastered on their faces.

"So like, how long till we know what it is? Because I kinda want another brother. Even if Garrett is stinky." Adalee smiled. Olivia forced a smile before speaking again.

"5 weeks. We won't make you all wait to find out." Olivia spoke.

"Sounds good! Now, can we be done here? I want to start looking up names to put on our list for this baby." Ember smiled.

"I guess. Shoo." Olivia spoke, as her husband stood and followed the girls to the door. He shut it before moving back to where his wife was cleaning up the tools.

"We need to talk, Liv." Trevor sighed.

"Did you figure out who the man is that made Angie fall madly in love with him in a matter of weeks?" Olivia asked.

"Not yet... but I want to apologize about this morning."

"You were angry, Trev. And you still are. So why don't you go do more research and leave me to take care of the kids."

Trevor finally found out who Angie was marrying. Trevor got even more pissed off than he thought he would, and he ended up getting himself in trouble because he went and kicked the man's ass and got arrested for it.

"Well. Well. Well. Mr. Langan is going to need a defense lawyer, huh?" Olivia teased, as she moved to where her husband was in a holding cell. Trevor stood quickly and moved to the bars as his wife stood and smiled at him.

"Babe, thanks for bailing me-"

"Trevor, I didn't bail you out. At this moment, you will be sitting here until you can get your head on straight."

"Olivia!" Trevor exclaimed.

"Trevor, you went and beat up the man that Angie is planning on marrying! She isn't your wife anymore but you are protecting her as if she is! So why the hell did you beat this guy up?" Olivia asked. Trevor groaned as he leaned his head against the bars.

"Liv, does it matter? Please just bail me out." Trevor whined.

"Tell me or you will be sitting in here all night," Olivia ordered. Trevor groaned deeply before tapping his fingers against the cold metal bars.

"He's my ex-best friend. I found out that he had slept with Angie a few months before the accident."
