I'll take care of you

Jamie has been here since last night, it was getting into the afternoon. Early, when Mabel was supposed to be watching him, he had a panic attack. He hasn't explained to me what happened, but i did find him in front of Charlie's old room crying. I hope we get closer and eventually form a real relationship.
We were in the playroom, I was building a dollhouse for him, and he was playing in the corner with some stuffies. He surprised me by asking if he was going back to franklins. Truly I forgot he wasn't mine, at least not yet. I suggested we go and talk to them and see what's happening.
I decided to FaceTime Franklin and Steven. When they answered, Jamie squealed and started speaking a million miles a second. "Hi Franklin! Hi da- Steven," he went on and on for so long, I lost track of time. "...and then, I played with the stuffies, while mommy put together a dollhouse for me!"
When he said that, his face fell slowly and he looked down. All three of us noticed, but I spoke up first. "Jamie, baby, what's wrong?" He looked up at me with sad eyes, and I remembered that the point of this call was to ask when they wanted him home. "Um, when do I have to come home?" Franklin and Steven looked at each other searching for an answer. "Well we'll come get yo-" "Liv can bring you home la-" they both stop mid sentence, them realizing that they're talking at the same time.
"Um, Jamie what do you want to do?" I asked grabbing his hand, he looked up at me and then at Franklin and Steven on the screen. He asked to speak to them alone and I left out the door but not before giving him a kiss on top of his head. I, being nosy, but a caring mommy dom, listened outside the door. "Hi buddy do you like it with her?" I didn't hear any response, so I assumed he nodded his head. They told me when he starts to regress more he doesn't use his words much. "You already told us about your day and stuff, but really do you think she likes you?" There was a few moments of silence, I heard a quiet noise like someone was trying to talk but couldn't find the words, "I-I think she does... hopefully she does."
I stopped listening after that because their conversation wasn't any of my business. I headed to my office and left the door cracked slightly. I had so much work, so much press emailing and calling about the incident. I was stressed and the little amount of time I had with Jamie let me have a small break and allowed me to relax. I worked for around fifteen minutes and then I started hearing multiple voices and soft pats of feet coming closer. Followed by a small knock and, "Olivia?"
     I opened the door for him and smiled, "Hi sweetie, so what's the plan?" He shrugged a little and handed me the phone then walked away. That was strange, I looked down and remembered they were still on the phone. "Sooo guys what's up?" I asked trying to get an official answer finally. Franklin sighed and said they needed to talk to me.
     "Olivia, we've talked to eachother and we decided we're going to adopt," I squealed in excitement, I was going to be an, an aunt? an godmother? "Oh my goodness guys I'm so happy for y'all, have you actually looked at some of your options?," I was speaking a thousand miles a minute, I was so happy and obviously wanted to know the details. "Yes liv we have, we haven't decided and we're working with an agency to figure it out." i smiled and nodded my head, "I'm so happy for you guys, I'll help set up and prepare everything you need. I am definitely helping with their room," as soon as I said that my face fell, I realized they only had two rooms. One of which was being used by Jamie.
     Franklin gave Steven a knowing look and he sighed "That's what we needed to talk about, it's obvious Jamie can't stay here for much longer. We've been in the process of adopting for a bit and we know we're planning to get a girl at least. We would like to start changing the room a bit, I know it's a big favor to ask bu-" I interrupted without a second thought I knew my answer, "Absolutely, but does he know?" They nodded, I guess that's what they told him when I was away.
     Less than a second later a heard a big crash and a yell "Mommy!" I threw my head back and laughed a little, "Well guys i better get going and check on him, we come by later to get his things?" With that I hung up the phone and made my way towards the noise of the crash; the playroom. "Jamie, what did you do?" The unfinished, most likely broken, dollhouse had fallen over, I was angry. Money was absolutely no issue for me, but that giant house cost almost two thousand dollars. Jamie tried to explain what happened but it came out as a big stutter of words. I looked down with my hand on my hip and pinched the bridge of my nose. Without looking, I pointed to a corner of the play room with one small stool "Sit. Do not speak, or turn around from that corner or so help me god your ass will be red for the next week."
     He did exactly that, I was mostly very annoyed not mad. I worked so hard to build this for him and spent so much money. I cleaned up the dollhouse, not without the sound of Jamie's sniffles of course. Thankfully nothing was broken but a small set of stairs that could be easily replaced. I reflected on what I said to him and concluded I should apologize for getting so mad so fast.
     I walked up from behind and sat down crisscross  and rubbed his back a little. "Jamie, babygirl will you turn around for me?" He tried to push my hand off as best as he could without facing me, "Hmph,"
"Jamie turn around please." I pleaded
"No, hmph,"
"One," and that's all I had to say.
     He finally turned around and I saw his pitiful red, tear-stained face. He wiped a tear from his eye as he continued to hold in sniffles. I grabbed his hands and rubbed circles into his knuckles, "Can you tell me what happened?" I wiped another tear from his eyes and rested my hand on the side of his face, which he warmed up to.
"I was playing cars on the roof of it and then one of them fell off, and when I went to pick it up I accidentally hit it and it fell," I made an O shape with my mouth and nodded. I had just gotten so mad for no reason, I don't know what was wrong with me. I motioned for him to come here and he accepted, he put his legs on either side of my thighs and wrapped his arms around my neck. I returned it with my arms wrapped around his torso and my hand playing with his hair. "Baby, mommy's so sorry. I'm so sorry I got mad like that, I would never hurt you for no reason." Jamie, still sniffling nodded his head. After about 10 minutes of us sitting there silence I felt something wet on my shoulder- Jamie was drooling in his sleep. I wiped of the drool and carried him to my bedroom.
It was getting lateish and I needed to get his things. Franklin and Steven said they gathered all his toys and items and packed them up neatly for us already. I put on some actual clothes and brushed my hair. I grabbed my keys, and gave Jamie a kiss on the forehead. As I was walking out a quiet voice piped up, "M-mommy? where you go?" Jamie yawned and rubbed his eyes, he seemed very little at the moment so I picked him up and set him on my hip. "I was going to get your things from Franklins, would you like to come?" he nodded his head obviously still very sleepy.
I told Mabel I was leaving, as well as my guards at the front gate. Jamie was back to sleep by the time I got him buckled in the back. He was so precious. I cared about him so much. I never wanted anything to ever hurt him. I put socks right beside him so when he woke up he would have his best bud. one last forehead and then we were off to franklins.
