Emmett was crying, he had thought about that morning so many times, but to hear Simone's name hurt him. He loved her so much, to think that finding out she had to live with the scars on the outside and inside that he had caused.
He decided tomorrow he would talk to her, if it was true what Ty said, he would not sleep here anymore. He just couldn't imagine hurting her everyday.
The baby was done with his bottle but was still fussy, Emmett picked him up and kissed his forehead he was warm. He goes into the kitchen to get a thermometer he has a fever over a hundred. He goes to Bay's room but stops outside of the door, she wasn't alone.
He face times his mom, three times before she answers,"mom Eli is running a fever, i don't know what to do" he signed. She was up, "where's Bay" she signed. "She got drunk, she is sleeping it off" he signed" , his mom looked at him you could see the fear he had, "on my way".
She got there, Emmett had the door open. She took Eli and sat down, she put her lips to head. Emmett was pacing, she put her finger in his mouth," Emmett he has a tooth coming out" she signed.
He was so relieved " did you give him tylenol " she asked, he was getting him some. "Look in the freezer, they should have teething rings in there "
" How did you know he was teething" he asked, " Katherine told me Wednesday he was about to have a tooth come out, Bay didn't tell you" she signed.
"She has not talked a lot to me this week, but this is our son, I don't see how she could keep this to herself" he signed. "Well I think you need to wake her up, she need's to know" she signed, " Ty is here sleeping with her, she tried to get the scars that Tank did covered, from what he said they were only able to do some". Melody had tears in her eyes " so she got drunk, he didn't want to leave me with her" he signed.
She shook her head " I am thinking that this will be the last night I stay here, Ty said her heart breaks everyday when she sees me" his mom hugged him, " I hope she will let Eli come spend time at our house" he signed.
It was three and he finally fell asleep, Melody went to Emmett room and got pillows. He layed down on the couch and she put the pillows in the floor to catch Eli in case he fell. She left , they had both fallen asleep.
At seven she woke up Ty was awake laying next to her. " I'm sorry I got drunk you didn't have to stay", Ty laughed " just wanted to make sure you didn't get sick "
She shook her head " coffee " she asked " no I have to go, just wanted to stay until you were awake".
She puts on her robe and walks upstairs to Eli's room, he wasn't there she goes to Emmett's and nothing. She goes down stars and the twins are laying on the couch sleeping. She loved those two more than anything, she sees the thermometer and Tylenol, she was mad for a few minutes he should have woken her. But she realized why he didn't.
She goes brew some coffee and sits across from them with her sketch pad, father and son. The coffee was ready she went fix her some, she walk's back into the living room and Emmett's awake " I'm so mad at you, how could you not tell me are son was teething, I called my mom last night and she stayed till three" he signed.
" I'm sorry I just didn't think about it, I have a lot on my mind" she signed. He sat up "well I will take some off, this is the last night I will spend here, Ty told me how hard it is for you to see me everyday" he sighed. He put the Eli in his play pen.
" But you can't leave, we are a family" she signed. He was so mad " how in the world can you say that , you never even speak to me, and this last week it was like I wasn't even here"
She had a tear falling down her cheek, " Monday it was two years" she signed. He looked at her confused, she held up one finger.
How could he have forgotten, he walk's up to her. "Bay I can't believe I didn't remember, I'm so sorry" he remembered last year he held her so many times while she cried. He knelt down in front of her and put his arms out, it was totally up to her weather or not she wanted to be held.
She put her head on his shoulder and cried, he picked her up and went sit on the sofa. This was the closest he had been to her in over a year, he just held on to her and she cried and cried. Days like today he was so glad Tank had killed himself, it wasn't how he had hurt her it was all about Tank.
