Fixing a broken heart

Bonding

⚠️MENTIONS OF BRUISES AND MARKS⚠️

6 months later

Toni and Cheryl watched as Breanna threw the baseball back and forth with now 5-year-old Sophia and Alexander.

It's been 6 months since Cheryl and Toni made it official. But they've known each other for almost 10 months.

They've gone on more dates, Breanna and the twins have the most amazing bond. Everything was going well until it wasn't.

Cheryl saw her, standing with a woman who was holding what seems to be a 2-year-old boy.

Heather looks back, her eyes widen when she sees Cheryl sitting with Toni as the Burnette made her laugh and smile.

Alex and Sophia ran over to Cheryl, after spotting the woman too.

"Mommy... Uh, moms here." Sophia whispered, pointing.

Cheryl gently brought the girls soft hands down, "It's okay, baby. She's not worried about you." Cheryl whispered.

Heather and the woman walked over to them, Heather smile at her two kids.

"Hey, Al, sohp." Heather greeted them.

"Heather, what do you want?" Cheryl asked, standing up as Breanna pulled the twins behind her.

"Nothing. I was just stopping by to say hi. Can't I see my children?" Heather smirked.

"No. You lost that privilege when you walked out on them last year." Toni growled, stepping in front of Cheryl.

Cheryl grabbed her arm, calming her down a bit.

Heather smirked, "Who is she? Your next stuck up?"

Cheryl rolled her eyes.

"Oh, This is Melissa, my wife. And my son, Troy." Heather introduced them.

Cheryl shrugged, not caring that Heather had a new family. She was beyond over Heather, in fact, she was in love with Toni.

"Hey, you-"

"Toni." Toni cut her off.

"Toni... Did Cheryl sleep with you yet? Have you seen her body, full of scars and bruises?" She smirked.

Cheryl felt her heartache with a swing of heartbreak. Cheryl's always been insecure about her body. Even after Heather rejected her multiple times before their divorce, it made Cheryl feel worse.

Cheryl looked down, feeling Toni gently pull her behind her as Breanna grabbed Cheryl before pulling her into a hug.

Toni sighed, looking up at the blonde.

"Listen here. I may not have seen Cheryl's body, but I know for damn sure that she's the most sexiest, good looking woman I will ever see. So I'd like you and your "MeLiSsA." to scatter along because our kids have some playtime to do and your presence is stopping us." Toni said as calmly as she could.

"Like I'm scared of you." She scoffed. "Cheryl knows she still loves me." Heather smirked.

Toni lost it.

She grabbed heather by her shirt collar.

"Listen here you bitch. Whatever you and Cheryl had is gone. Lost in thin air. She's with me now, someone who is willing to love her kids as if they are my own. Someone who is willing to love and treat her better. Hell, better than you ever did. So I advise you to walk away before I lose my temper in front of my kids." Toni growled lowly not even realizing she called Alex and Sophia her kids, or that she said she loves Cheryl.
