It's not all roses

Chapter 3

Misty POV

It has been a week since mum's wedding and Tyson's confession. He has kept true to his word, with making it up to me. He has not left my side. I don't know what is worse though, him not showing me enough attention or him showing me too much.

Tyson took me to one of his sessions. Alyssia apologized to me for what had happened at the wedding. She never meant for that to happen and I can tell she was sincere in her apology. These classes were absolutely amazing. The amount of information that Tyson was receiving to help him become a better dad and a better partner, blew me away. I just wished he had come to me before doing this.

I keep telling him we are a team. We are in this together. He wasn't the only one who made Ryan. I had a hand in that. We are a family and we are meant to be there for each other. I am so happy that I listened to mum, otherwise I would still be assuming he is cheating on me.

Ryan is thriving off all the extra attention he gets from us both. We have worked out the best schedule for him and it allows us to have 'Us Time' even if that is only laying in bed cuddling while reading a book or watching a movie. We don't need to go out anymore to have fun. Our fun is in the house with our family around us.

I was sitting on the couch watching Titanic for the one hundredth time. I am at the part where Rose was laying all over the door and didn't let Jack on. "There's enough room for the both of you Rose. Move your fat arse over" I yell at the tv. Tears are falling from my eyes. This scene always breaks me.

The front door opens and I hear heavy stomping on the floor. I quickly turn myself around in my seat and look towards the front door. Tyson walks in with an angry look on his face. I jump up quickly and run to him. Grabbing his hand in mine, "Babe, what's wrong?" I ask him. He looks pissed. I can see the anger turn his cheeks red.

"Mum and Dad turned up to work this afternoon. Demanding my boss fire me" he rants at me. I can feel his hands try to clench in mine. "Ty, baby, you need to calm down please. You are scaring me" I tell him timidly. He looks at me and notices that I am scared of him right now. Tyson wraps his arms around me whispering in my hair. "I'm sorry baby, I'm so sorry" he says. I tilt my head up and lean up on my tip toes and plant my lips on his.

Tyson takes control of the kiss. He picks me up and carries me into the lounge room. Sitting on the couch, I straddle his lap. His hands move from the back of my thighs to my arse. He keeps raising them further and further up my body. I run my hands through his hair and gently pull on the strands. I grind myself down onto his lap and can feel how hard he is.

"Mis, we should stop now" he says as he pulls back. I go to get up off his lap, feeling rejected. He keeps a hold on my hips. "No baby, if we kept going, I was going to have to take you on the couch and we don't need your mum, Jason or Lacy walking in on us" he says. I remove his hands from my hips and stand up "Well what are you waiting for Tyson. I'll be in the bedroom" I say and saunter off, swaying my hips as I move.

I get 5 steps away from him, before my wrist is in his hand and I am being turned back to face him. He looks like a predator stalking its prey. He picks me up and throws me over his shoulder, running down to our room. I am unceremoniously thrown onto the bed. He wastes no time in climbing on top of me, attacking my mouth with his. "I love you so much baby" He says between kisses. "I love you too" I reply.

Tyson starts to remove my top. I start to feel self-conscious about my body. I go to pull my top back down, but Tyson stops me. "Don't baby. I love you, warts and all. I don't care that you have a little bit of weight on you. You are perfect to me and that is all that matters. You will lose what you need to when you are ready. Misty I love you for who you are, not what you look like"

I start crying again. I am so overly emotional lately and I don't know why. No I am not pregnant, but there is something going on with my hormones. Tyson rolls off me and pulls me into him so we are facing each other. "Misty, what is going on?" he asks. Concern lacing his voice and I can see it in his eyes. "I don't know. I just feel so emotional lately and I can't stop myself from crying all the time" I tell him honestly.

"Have you been taking your tablets, babe?" he asks. I shake my head no. I know he is going to be angry with me for not taking my antidepressants. "Misty, the doctor put you on them so you wouldn't get like this. Please baby, I need you to help yourself before I can help you" he pleads with me. I sniffle again and wipe my nose with the back of my hand. Tyson sighs before he climbs off the bed and walks over to the desk in my room to grab some tissues.

"Come on babe. Let's go get a drink. You need one" he says to me while handing me the tissues. I wipe my face and blow my nose. I stand up and he wraps his arms around me. Tyson just holds me. He doesn't say anything with his voices. His actions speak louder than any words can. At the end of the day he is the glue that is keeping me together.

Tyson drops his arms slowly from around my body. He squeezes my arse, winks at me and smiles. Taking my hand in his, he leads us out to the kitchen to get a drink. He grabs a beer for himself and offers me a vodka and cranberry drink. I nod my head and he opens it. We clink our bottles together. We sit at the kitchen table just watching each other take sips of our drinks. Every now and then Tyson will wink at me or give me his sex grin. I know I am in trouble tonight when we go to bed and I am looking forward to it.

Tyson POV

Last night was one amazing night. I showed Misty how much I love her with actions over words. Misty is a woman who loves hard and I am someone who loves harder. She is my whole world along with Ryan.

I am still pissed off with my parents. How dare they come into my work and demand my boss fires me. They have nothing to do with me and my life.

"You need to get rid of him. He will only bring your company down with his bad attitude" "He is a druggo" "He probably steals from the till and the customers"

The crap she was spouting off at the top of her lungs made my blood boil. Thank god my boss is a guy who doesn't listen to psychotic women. He just looked at her, told her to get the fuck off his property then went back to balancing the books.

I go into the kitchen to make some breakfast for Misty and I and come face to face with a sight I never wanted to see. "Oh god Jason. Nice buns, but seriously cover up man" I laugh out. Jason turns around and doesn't attempt to cover his junk. "Not ashamed Tyson. Gotta love what you've been given" He says, taps my arse and runs down the hallway laughing. I shake my head at him. I boil the kettle and put of couple of pieces of bread into the toaster.

I am brought out of my own little world by someone tapping my arse again. I turn my head to see Jason again wearing his signature smirk. "Get a bit wild last night, son?" he asks me. I laugh hard at his question. "Heard you try to compete with us, Jason" I tell him with my own smirk. He fist bumps me "Nice job boy. You'll have her knocked up again in no time" he says.

"He will not thank you very much" Misty says with one hand on her hip and Ryan on the other. "One of these things is enough" she says pointing at Ryan. Ryan smiles and puts his arms out for me. I walk over to them and grab Ryan off Misty, while giving her a kiss. "Come on little man, let's get you some breakfast.

I place Ryan in his high chair and strap him in. He smiles at me "Da da" he coos. "Yeah my little man. Lets put some food in this belly of yours" I say to him. Making my way back to the cupboards, I grab out his bowl and spoon and the rice bubbles. Misty takes over getting Ryan's breakfast and I get onto mine.

"So what are you kids up to today?" Jason asks. "Just the normal. Look after Ryan, clean the house, you know, motherly shit" Misty says. Jason looks at me, "What about you, lover boy?" he laughs. I punch him in the arm. "Got work later on, but that's about it. Just gonna spend some time with my favourite people in the world" I answer him.

"Oh I didn't realise I was you favourite person in the world" Laura says, walking into the kitchen. She goes straight over to Ryan in his chair and gives him a kiss on his head. "Are mummy and daddy giving you a brother or sister soon?" she asks him. Ryan just babbles at her. "I thought so buddy. I wouldn't be surprised if they do after last nights encounter" she says back to him. Misty is shocked and embarrassed while Jason holds out his fist. I give him a quick fist bump and we laugh together.
