A month later
It's been a month since the fiasco in the kitchen, and to say things were awkward would be an understatement. Braxton ignores me at all costs other than to speak about Tommy. He comes home super late and sometimes even drunk, tonight was one of those night. It was around midnight when I was woken up by loud crashing coming down stairs. I hurry down to see Braxton throwing things and knocking things down to the floor. He has yet to notice me so I yelling at him.
"Are you crazy?!" I ask he, he quickly turns to the sound of my voice,
"Tommy is up stairs sleeping and I rather not have to deal with him screaming and crying because your down here doing god knows what!" I yell. He just keeps looking at me and mumbles something along the lines of 'I'll have someone clean it up' and tries to walk past me up the stairs. I walk right in front of him to stop him.
"No," I say looking him dead in the eye,
"Move!" He looks pissed but I'm not backing down, he has a lot of explaining to do.
"No, you asked me to move into this house, you asked me to look after your son and now you don't talk to me at all, you barely see your own fucking son and you've been coming black out drunk 5 of the 7 nights you come home. So please do explain that because I rather not keep waking up and having to drag your ass back to bed," I state. He looks even more pissed at me, he tries to walk by me but i again stop him.
"I heard the phone call," I tell him, reminding myself of what I overheard last month.
"What are you talking about?" He asks, he looks shocked.
"About Tommy's mom, and her wanting custody or something I'm not really sure I didn't hear much of it. And look it all of this is about tha-," I was cut off by him.
"Mind your own fucking business Ms. Chase, it's my son and my issues and you can stay the fuck out of them," he was obviously raging right now but I could care less, he hasn't seen Tommy in over 2 weeks.
"Your son? Really?" I ask, "you have yet to see him in the last 2 weeks and don't even talk to me about him asking if he's alright or anything and you have the audacity to tell me it's none of my business?" I say, I'm very close to his face, he's pissing me of and he needs to be aware.
"I have been more of a parent to him in the past month than you have," I say while putting my finger to his chest.
"And I have every right to know what's going on because I'm his nanny and it is my job to look after him and get informed of what's going on so I can make sure he's safe at all times," he tries to cut me off but I keep talking,
"And did you know that last week he said his first word? Hm? Did you know that?" He looks at me like I just kicked a puppy,
"No you didn't because when I went to tell you, you just brushed me off like a was a fucking fly and I'm tired of it,"
"Shut up," he says, "just shut the fuck up I'm done with this argument," he exclaims and walks passed me. He goes up to his room with me right behind him,
"Well I'm fucking not so stop ignoring me and listen to what I'm saying," he gives me the back of his hand and is walking into his room, closing the door behind him. I push the door open and walk into him untying his tie, he turns and glares at me.
"I told you to leave me alone," he seethed,
"Well you should have thought about that before you just disappeared and barely talked to me and leaving me with your son for how long,"
"It's non of your concern Ms. Chase, like I've said. So leave or you're fired," he says, I'm taken very aback, how could he? I can feel my eyes brimming with tears.
"Fuck you. I hope you loose the stupid custody battle," I say wiping my eyes and go to leave. Before I make it out I'm forcefully pushed against the wall.
"What the hell did you just say to me?" He asked, anger burning in his eyes.
"I said, I hope you loose the fucking custody battle, you don't deserve Thomas," I spit. I can feel the anger rolling off of him, but I'm just as angry, he doesn't have any right to talk to me like this. I look up at his eyes, a flash of hurt covers his eyes, he backs up and I can see his eyes become glassy.
"Get out Madyline, I'm not talking to you about this, I'll get it figured out. Just go right now please," I think I hit a nerve,
"I'm sorry, I didn't-," I try to say but he cuts me off,
"It's fine, just go, now." His voice cracks and I see a tear roll down his face as he looks at me, I nod and walk out shutting the door. A fist slamming against the wall is soon followed.

I lay awake for a while longer thinking about how things turned out, he called me Madyline, which I think is good, better than "Ms. Chase", and after a little while longer I fall into a dreamless sleep.

It's been awhile I'm sorryyyy, I've just been super busy and didn't have the motivation to write, plus I wanted the reads to go up a little bit so I had some confidence in this😂
But this is a short chapter, but it's mostly a filler, the next chapter should be out soon:)
