Because You're Mine (COMPLETED)

Chapter 90: Avi

After I put Scott to bed I made my way back into the office, baby in hand, with Mitch and Kevin. He's got Mitch sitting and well, sort of speaking.

"No no no no. Kevin, please no." He slurs as he sobs. Kevin has the sedative in his hand. "I don't wanna go to sleep. No. Please no. Kevin, please." He begs, tears streaming down his face.

"Kevin, we need to sober him up first. Put that down, you're scaring him." I tell him firmly. I won't sedate Mitch until he understands why.

I hand the baby to Kevin and quickly go over to Mitch and grab his face so he's looking at me. "Mitch. You're okay. I promise. What Kevin is gonna give you is going to help you. You just need some sleep buddy. That's gonna help you so much. And you wont have any dreams. I promise."

He whimpers. "No dreams?"

"No dreams. You will feel so much better when you wake up. But we're gonna sober you up first, okay?"

He sniffles and nods. "O-okay." He says with a shaky voice.

I smile. "Okay." I get up and go over to Kevin and pull him aside. "How do you plan on sobering him up?"

He sighs. "That was your idea, not mine." He gripes.

I grab his shoulder. "Okay, I get it, you're tired. I'm tired, too. But right now, that omega is our top priority. Now, is there anything that can sober him up, or not?"

"Not, Avi." He snaps. "He's part human. His B.A.L. will go down once its out of his system. There's nothing we can do. Unless you wanna keep him awake even longer. Do you wanna do that? Because I really don't want to. It's four in the morning. Let me sedate him and we'll be fine!"

I shake my head and look at him. I feel like I just got slapped. "Kev, what is the issue here?"

He shakes his head. "We're not talking about this right now. We can wait it out and he can sober up, or you can let me knock him out now, and we'll be on our way."

I sigh. "Fine. Do whatever, you're the doctor." I raise my hands and look over to Mitch. He's picking at the bandage on his wrist, trying to get it off.

I rush over to stop him, but he pulls away. "Mitch! Mitch, its okay. It's okay." I manage to grab his hands and he stops fighting me. I try to gather him up and cradle him against my chest.

It hurts me to see him like this. Even Kirstie wasn't this bad. I mean, yes, it was awful, but not like this.

He screams when I touch him, causing me to flinch back.

I watch as Mitch starts shaking and crying and screaming. I jump up on the table and, though its probably not the best idea, I straddle him and try to pin his hands so he doesn't hurt himself or fall off the table.

This just made it worse, but I'd rather him not hurt himself. What's gonna work? I look around until eventually my eyes settle on the baby

I shift my eyes from the baby to Kevin. "Kevin, bring the baby closer." I tell him.

"Avi, are you serious? Look at him."

"Now!" I flick my eyes red. I managed to grab onto his hands to keep him from hurting himself or anyone in here and hold them apart, though I'm being careful with his right wrist, for obvious reasons.

"Avi-" Kevin protests

"I said now! He wouldn't hurt his own child. He will recognize her scent and it just might calm him down." I say, struggling to hold Mitch's hands apart.

He starts fighting me even more and he screams.

Kevin doesn't move. He just stares at me like I'm crazy. "I'm not saying put her on his chest, Kevin, just bring her closer." I gasp. "Or better yet." I say as an idea hits me.
