Seth-
I walked to Ava's class. When her teacher saw me she smiled and called for Ava. Ava popped her head out and looked at her teacher before slowly walking over to me. She was twirling her fingers not looking up at me. I went down to her level and lifted her chin to look at me.
"I miss hearing your voice and your sweet laugh princess", I said to her.
"I'm sorry", she said softly.
"I'm not mad, I'm sad kiddo you weren't talking to me", I said.
She wrapped her arms around my neck.
"That's my girl", I said.
Picking her up she smiled at me.
"How about we go pick up Dean and Roman? Then go to mommy's work to eat lunch", I said.
"Ok, I had fun at school today. I played tag with my friends and had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich", she said excited.
"You did, did you save me some?", I asked her.
"No I ate it all", she said.
"You did", I said.
I started tickling her and she started giggling. When I put her in the car I went around to my door, pulling out my phone.
"Hello", Dean said.
"Hey you and Rome get ready, Ava and I are picking you guys up for lunch", I said
"Aw babe you don't have too", he said.
I heard Roman chuckle. I rolled my eyes.
"Fuck off then", I said.
He laughed.
"We will be outside waiting", Dean said.
"Ok", I said, getting in the car and putting my phone down.
I was waiting to get out when I spotted someone watching me from across the street. I didn't know who it was, they were wearing sunglasses and a black hat.
"Ava, stay in the car ok", I said.
I got off and started towards the car. The guy looked away and drove off fast. I stopped and watched as the car turned a corner. I went back to the car, getting on.
"What's wrong Seth?", Ava asked.
"Nothing, I thought I knew him that's all", I said.
I looked back at her. She smiled.
"Ready", I said.
She nodded.
Savi-
It was a busy day, spotting the guys along with Ava come in. I smiled at them.
"Sit anywhere", I said.
They nodded. Carly went over and kissed Dean.
"Hey", I heard him say.
She giggled. Lizzy went up to Roman and pushed him lightly. He chuckled, leaning down to kiss her.
"I missed you too", he said to her.
Ava giggled. Lizzy took their order. I had a few seconds to spare, going over to Seth.
"Looks like everything's ok now", I said, pointing to Ava.
"Great, she forgave me", his voice let me know he was happy now.
I kissed his cheek. Lizzy brought over their food.
"Hey", I turned to see TK at the door waving.
I glanced at Seth, who didn't look too happy to see him.
"Hi TK", Ava said.
"Hey kid", he replied.
He moved over to their table.
"What can we do you for?", Seth asked.
"I came to eat if that's ok with you", TK said.
Seth rolled his eyes. TK moved over to another table. A group of guys waved at him and sat down with him. The next person to come I didn't expect. Eric.
"Ok wait, before you say anything, I want to apologize", he said.
Before I could open my mouth to say anything, Dean punched him. Knocking Eric back. Blood pouring from his mouth. Roman held him back.
"What the fuck", Eric said, covering his mouth.
I helped him up.
"He's just being protective", I said.
I knew Eric, his dad was a judge knowing Dean was going to be in deep with this. Eric was going to want to press charges. Dean was trying to get out of Roman's grip. Seth pulled on him.
"Stop", Seth said loud to him.
"What happened?", Ben asked.
"That fucker hit me", Eric said.
"I had my fucking reasons", Dean yelled over Seth and Roman.
"Your scarying Ava", Carly said to Dean.
Dean looked back at the crying little girl. He went over to her and hugged her tight. Eric pulled his phone out.
"Eric wait", I chased after him.
He turned.
"What? That fucker is dangerous Savi and you have him around our daughter. No, I'm calling the cops on his ass sorry", he yelled.
"This coming from the person who would beat me in front of her. He would never put her in danger", I yelled.
"Get the fuck out of here", TK was behind me, glaring at Eric.
Eric shook his head.
"I'm calling the cops. My dad is a judge Savi remember and that fucker will be lucky if he doesn't go to jail for what he did", Eric yelled, pulling his phone out.
I sighed. TK put his hand on my shoulder.
"He would beat you?", he asked.
"Yeah, but after I moved it was harder for him to get into my apartment", I said.
"I'm sorry that happened to you", he said softly.
I shrugged.
"I got along great without him. My job now is keeping Ava safe and sound, away from him", I said, going back in.
Dean was still holding Ava. Seth hugged me.
"He's calling the cops", I said.
"Let him, I don't give a fuck", Dean growled.
"You should, his dad is a judge", I said.
Deans shoulders tensed.
"Fuck", he said.
"The most they can get you for is assault", Roman said.
"You better hope that's all they get him for, that judge has been known to push further when it involves his son", Ben said.
"That's why you never called the cops on him", Seth said.
I nodded.
"What was the point, he was still going to get away with it and I might have lost Ava in the process", I said.
