I AM SO SORRY! My computer broke guys so I'm doing these on my lunch break at work! Also I'm throwing something in that happened to my cousin last night so we'll see what ya think!
"He's screaming and thrashing in his bed" Tony muttered gesturing towards the door.
"Santi?" Letty murmured quietly as she entered the small boys room. Santi looked up at his mom his eyes were red and his little nose was runny.
"I had a nightmare Mami, where Dom" He sniffed.
"I'm right here sport" Dom murmured coming up beside Letty.
"I'm scared" He whimpered holding his arms up so Dom could lift him up.
"What happened miho"
"Daddy hurt Mami and me and Dom and I cried and Daddy laughed and hurt me more. And then Daddy threw Mami down the stairs and Dom chaseded him and Daddy hurt Dom and I cried for police man but he never ever came Mami!" Santi sobbed against Dom's chest.
"Oh baby" Letty whispered "You're safe"
"Your dad's locked away Santiago he can't hurt anyone anymore buddy."
"But he get out and he come hurt me and Mami"
"He's not getting out for a very long time Santi"
"Really?"
"I promise" Letty murmured.
"Can I come sleep wif you?" Santi pleaded.
"Yeah buddy come on" Dom said soothing his back. They stood and began to leave the room when Santi screamed.
"My alligator!"
"Okay baby it's okay" Letty murmured placing the toy in his arms. Dom laid Santi in the bed between them as Letty soothed his back. Within minutes Santi had drifted to sleep his little arm draped across Letty's waist his face pressed against her chest.
"Guess he's not as over it as I thought" Letty winced brushing the dark strands away from his eyes. She had thought Santiago was over the incident and didn't dare bring it up in fear of frightening him.
"Poor kid looks pretty shook up" Dom agreed his stomach was in knots he'd never seen the little side of Santiago he'd forget sometimes just how small the boy was.
"Thank you...for you know being here" Letty whispered rubbing her finger tips across his jaw line
"Anytime anything" Dom whispered pressing his lips against her forehead.
"I guess we should get some rest, I hope he sleeps through the night" Letty sighed adjusting Santi's face against her chest. He stirred clutching at her tank top and whimpering. "Sshhh baby it's okay" She murmured soothing him back to sleep. "Night Dom" She whispered pressing a chaste kiss to his cheek.
"Night Let"
A few hours into the night.
Letty groaned at the painful sensation radiating through her chest, she rubbed her eyes yawning as she felt across her chest. She froze as her hand brushed against Santi's head pressed into her chest.
"What the fuck?" She hissed causing Dom to roll over.
"Letty what's the...whoa alright then"
Santiago had hauled Letty's tank top down and was nursing sleepily.
"He hasn't nursed since he was 18 months old, I don't even lactate anymore why would he do this?"
"Cause he's scared, you think he knows he's doin it?" Dom whispered trying his best not to stare.
"I doubt it" Letty shook her head peering down at her son, he was clutched to her almost desperately. She sighed heavily leaning back into her pillow. "Should I take him off?"
"Uh?" Dom shifted "I don't know much about this Let"
"Santi...Santi baby wake up" Letty whispered shaking him gently, his eyes snapped open and he jumped away.
"Mami"
"It's okay baby" Letty whispered adjusting her tank top fearing upsetting him. Santi blinked up at his mother before nuzzling into her once more. "Santi do you remember what you were doin"
"Sleeping Mami"
"Don't remember nothin after that bud?" Dom murmured rubbing his back.
"Nuh uh"
"Alright night baby" Letty pressed kissing his forehead she watched as Santi drifted back off to sleep. Dom rubbed his head trying to process what had just happened.
"I think we need to go see the therapist again" Dom told her slowly.
"Yeah I think so to" Letty agreed wrapping the blanket tight around Santi. "I thought we were over the rough spots"
"We'll get through Let"
So should Santi see a therapist? Or is this just a young boy needing his mother! Twist in the next chapter! Review!
