Sorry this is a little short, but I wanted to get an update in. The next chapter will be longer and much happier I promise.
Chapter 25
Bella's POV
I waited for the plane to board and my thoughts were on my daughter. How can I just take off without her? Who the hell is Dom to tell me what I am going to do with my life, my daughter? This ain't happening. I slide the brakes on the wheelchair and use the arms to push myself up. I'm going to get my life back. Carefully I move one foot and follow with the other. I'm walking a little wobbly, but I'm walking. With each step my balance comes back and I get moving faster.
I make my way to the rental car desk and order some little compact. It takes everything I got to get the car moving. Strength in my legs still isn't what it used to be. It will return in time for sure and I plan on giving Dominic the rematch of a lifetime. Gonna put that pig-headed man in his place. I make the turn into the driveway of the shop with a squeal of the tires catching everyone's attention. I fling the car door open and pull my legs out of the car. Pushing myself up is harder than I though it would be, but somehow I manage to get on my feet. "Yo Dom guess who's back? Get out here and face me. Can't get rid of me that easy. I'm here for good."
Mia rushes out of the shop telling me to quiet down. She is panicked. I stumble over to her and we walk together into the shop. Dom and Jesse are toe to toe in the center of the shop looking like they're about to go at it. They're talking so low that I can't make out what they are saying to each other. Whatever they are saying it's heated. Leon tries to pull Jess away, but he won't have it. I notice Aria crying in Vince's arms. She wants her daddy. I motion for Vince to join Mia and me in the doorway. Aria reaches for me as soon as Vince gets near us. I brace myself against the doorjamb and take her into my arms. "Baby girl calm down. It's ok. Momma here now." I send Vince to get in between Jess and Dom before anyone gets hurt. Vince pushes Dom away into the office. Leon takes the opportunity to get Jesse to take a seat on the bench. Mia calls Letty over to help make sure I don't fall as I make my way over to Jesse and Leon. "What the hell is going on here Jesse? Why are you and my brother fighting? That's my job."
Jesse wraps his arms around my waist and pulls Aria and me down onto his lap, "He said that he sent you away. Bell I can't live without you. I don't care what you did. I need you. We need to work this out on our own without everyone in our business. I want to get you better and give you everything you ever dreamed about. Bell I want to give you a house and a nice car. I want a big yard for our baby to play in and have little brother and sisters for her to play with. Don't want any of that without you."
"Jesse I want that too. I'm sorry for all the things I did to you. Nothing's been easy for me. Just didn't know how to deal with being in that chair and I though that you didn't love me anymore."
"Give me a break Bella. How could I not love you? I've loved you since the day I first saw you. You can't make that go away."
"I want it to be like it was. No more lies and no more broken promises."
"We can have that."
Leon rolls his eyes and walks away to the office, "Enough with the mushy stuff. Why does it always gotta get mushy? Sick man, just sick."
