* Joe's P . O . V *
I stood there silently; I didn't know what else to do. I made my way upstairs toward the banging noise. As I looked into our bedroom to see Nicole packing?
* Nicole's P . O . V *
I wiped a tear as I packed up some clothes. I don't know how my life has come to this. What have I ever done to deserve this? "What are you doin"? Joe's voice asked curiously coming toward me. "Packing" I replied simply. His (large) hands wrapped around my wrists. "Please" he said. "No-I'm done...I don't want to do this anymore-I can't" I spoke.
"What do you mean"? He questioned. I pulled my bag to my side and started toward the door. I was stopped by Joe. "Joe,Move" I said. "Baby... I'm sorry" he said. "I'm really sorry; I should've consulted you...But it's for you (I scoff) Nicole...these people almost killed you and Kai, if you care so much about Kai; don't you want her safe? (I stay still/silent)
"What do you want? I don't even know what you want anymore" After that we both began to argue...aggressively. "YOU'RE THE ONE WHO'S SELF CENTERED; YOU'D RATHER ME RISK YOUR LIVES THEN GO AND ELIMINATE THE THREAT"! I was confused...Before I knew it; I raised my hand and swung it...at Joe. It hit Joe's face with a *CLAP* sound. Next thing I know-I was nearly flying backward- I hit the wall with a thud.
My head hurt. I stood holding my head. I never thought Joe would hit me. I raced to the door. I ran to Kai's room and scooped her up into my arms. I raced down the stairs.
Joe of course followed. He touched my shoulder. "Nic"-"You know what I want? I want a Divorce" I said before Kai and I exited.
