After Everything

Chapter 6 - Hardin

I walk down the stairs and I see my mum on the couch with Emery and Auden.
She doesn't even look at me.

"Em and Auden it's past your bedtime." - I said with a really annoying voice.

"Daddy can I sleep with you and mommy today?" - said Auden in a low voice.

Well I guess nothing more will happen tonight, but ultimately Auden has having a lot of bad dreams and I'm afraid that I passed him that, and it's better if he sleep with us.

"Of course you can, your mum is up there, I'll go in a few minutes so I can tell you that story you wanted to hear".

I was looking at Auden going up the stairs until Emery hugged me and said:

"I'm so sorry dad, I shouldn't have told you those things it's not the truth, you're the best father ever, and I love you so much".

"I love you Emery."

"I promise that I won't be with Noah, just like mom said he doesn't like me enough because he left me."

"You know that you'll always be my little girl, and I'm the only man you have, at least for now." I said laughing.

"I love you! Good night Dad!"

"Good night sweetie."

I see Emery leaving and then I look at my mum and she's with an angry face.

"Do you have anything to tell me?" I said with a really annoyed face

"If I have anything to tell YOU?! Of course Hardin, you and Tessa should be more careful, do you want your children to see you two like that?

"No this just happened today, and you're nobody to talk about this, I saw you having sex with Vance.

"Let's not remember my mistakes, Hardin just be careful please."

"I will."

"So Emery told me what happened today."

"And?"

"I hope you're better now, you know she didn't meant those things"

"I know, look I'm going to the bedroom now I have Tessa and Auden waiting for me, are you going to sleep here tonight?"

"Oh no Hardin, I came here with Mike, he's waiting for me, we're renting a house. I'm going to spend some time here in America, because Auden's birthday is coming up."

"Yeah it's coming in a month, Tessa is just crazy about this and there's still a lot of time left."

"She just wants the perfect birthday party for him Hardin"

She came to hug me and I let her but I don't hug her back, she then gives me a kiss on the cheek and waves at me and left our apartment.
Today was a fucking tiring day for me but at least I had sex with Tess, I just wish we had more time to ourselves now we have the children and we are almost all the time working and there's no time for us and our needs.
I go upstairs and seek into Emery's room and I see that she's already sleeping and I close her door and then I open the door of our room and I find Auden sleeping and Tessa with her finger in her mouth telling me to shut up but I actually haven't said anything but I get it, we're both worried about his nightmares they just came back and it's hard for him to sleep in his own bed, just like it was for me before I had Tessa.
I take off my shirt and my pants and I lay down on the bed and I look at Tessa and she smiles at me.

"Hardin?"

"Yeah, baby?"

"Can you at least put your pyjama pants on? You're distracting me and our son is here sleeping with us."

"Of course I can, I didn't knew it would be so distracting for you" I said winking my eye

I put on my pants and I lean on the bed again and I hug Auden and Tessa, we both fall asleep quickly.
