Back in Love and Back in Pink - Chapter 9 / Man To Man
Kim's POV
Thank God! Today I was freed from my prison like hospital bed to go home to my own bed and just be in my own surroundings, when I was being discharged Tommy came into my room and smiled at me. He walked over and kissed on the lips "Hey, how you feeling?" He asked.
"Better thanks... Where's Ciaran?" I asked him.
"He's with Connor for the day. I thought that today you could get comfortable at home, I also have to go somewhere and I didn't want to leave you alone with him if you still sore and can't run after him, by the time Connor brings him back he'll be ready for bed" he explained to me.
This is why I love Tommy he's goos like that and always thinks about what other people need "Thanks, where are you going anyway?" I asked out of curiosity.
"To get you a present" He kissed the top of my head and picked up my bags before we walked to the car.
When we got home he helped me up the stairs and he brought me up a drink, some food and my medication so I wouldn't need anything whilst he was gone, he was the best boyfriend ever.
Tommy's POV
I had heard from a reliable source that someone had paid Eric's bail bond and he had been released so I got into contact with him and we agreed to meet and sort everything out man to man. I was going to make sure that he knew to leave Kim and Ciaran alone because they were my family now and there was nothing he could do about it and I was going to do everything in my power to make sure he stayed away from my family and when this was all done with I will tell Kim that I had done.
I arrived at our meet spot and I seen him sitting on the hood of his car trying to act like the hard man but he as about to become my bitch, he doesn't know I'm a power ranger and he doesn't know how I can kick his ass with my eyes closed "Mr Oliver" He greeted when I got out of my car.
"I'm here to tell you one thing... Kim and Ciaran are my family now you lost them when you tried to kill Kim and you better stay away from them" I told him sternly.
He got off his car and stood in front of me nearly nose to nose "That's my son and Kim, you can have her she's nothing to me. She's not hot anymore she had a kid and she got fat and ugly and I don't particularly care about her at all whether she dies or not... I don't care" He said with a laugh.
I lost it. Before I knew what I was going on I punched him in the face and he fell to the floor, when he was laying on the floor I threw a couple more punches and threw in a kick for good luck "Stay away from them or I will break every bone in your body!" I got back in the car and drive to get Kim some flowers or something.
When I got home I went up to the bedroom and seen her sitting up in bed watching TV, I went into the bedroom and placed the flowers I got her on the bedside table and I handed her the bar of chocolate I got for her which she had been dying for "Thank you, the flowers are beautiful and the chocolate... When I get better you're getting laid" We both laughed and I got into the bed next to her and we cuddled.
I looked down at Kim half an hour later and seen her fast asleep, I untangled us and went downstairs and cleaned everything up and when I was finished the front door opened and Connor came in with Ciaran "Where's mummy?" He asked excitedly.
"She's asleep" I told him and he looked down sad "When she wakes up I'll let you know OK? Did you have a good day with Connor?" I asked him.
He nodded and began to tell me about his day, they had played soccer, eaten ice cream, tried to pick up hot girls as I'm told. I gave Connor a look who shrugged "Hey it wasn't me, he like this girl and I said I would take them both for ice cream" He said in his defence.
I made dinner and I had decided to bring it upstairs to eat with Kim, Ciaran was more then happy to eat his dinner with his mum upstairs so as Ciaran raced up the stairs to wake Kim up I somehow managed to balance 3 plates up without spilling anything!
Half way through dinner my phone buzzed to indicate that I had a text, I checked my phone and seen the message was from a 'unknown' number;
You think you got one over on me? Meet me in the same place in 1 hour and we'll settle this once and for all, Eric
Did this guy really want to get beat twice in the same day? Did he have a death wish? "Who was that?" Kim asked.
"I'll tell you later OK?" I indicated towards Ciaran she nodded at me and I text Ethan;
Can you come and stay with Kim and Ciaran please. I need to go somewhere and don't wanna leave her on her own?
He text back a couple minutes later saying that would be fine, I waited for him to get to the house before I drove off towards where Eric wanted us to meet, this time there were a few more cars around so I didn't want to draw attention to ourselves because then the police would get involved.
"I'm surprised you showed" He stated as I got out of my car.
"I'm surprised you wanted us to meet again, wanna get your ass whipped twice in one day?" I questioned.
"I just wanted to question you about something... You said I had to stay away from Kim and Ciaran even though that's my son and the mother of my child, what are you going to do if I don't" He asked with a smirk.
"Like I said before. Stay away from them or I'll kill you" I threatened, I squared up to him and punched him in the face.
Before I knew what was going on I had guns pointing at me, I was being yelled at to lie on my stomach and have me arms out. I did as I was told and heard lots of commotion around me and was confused as to what was going on, someone put my wrists behind my back and cold metal wrapped around them. I was being arrested, Eric had set me up!
Kim's POV
The phone rang out loudly and I answered it with much effort "Hello?" I said.
"Kim it's me, look there's no time to explain everything right now but I'm in jail. I need you to get Connor or someone to bring me my card so I can pay my bond fee and get released" What?
"I want an explanation right now Tommy, why the hell are you in jail? What's going on?" I questioned.
"Kim I've gotta go just do as I ask please then I will explain everything" He said.
Ethan was still here so I told him Tommy had been arrested and needed his card, he went straight down to the police station and I was sitting in bed angry waiting for him to come home, I was going to kill him for getting himself arrested! What the hell does he think he was playing at?
I heard footsteps coming up the stairs and my bedroom door opened and Tommy stood there looking at me "What happened? How the hell did you get arrested? You better tell me everything" I was so angry.
"Earlier today I met up with Eric to tell him to stay away from Ciaran because you guys were my family now and he lost all rights when he tried to kill you. He said he wanted Ciaran but he didn't care if you died or not and I just lost it and I bet him up, during dinner it was him who text me telling me to meet up with him and I did but he had set me up. He kept pushing my buttons and I lost it and I threw a punch then I had police shouting at me to lie on my stomach, I had guns pointed at me and when the police interviewed me they said they got information that I had a gun and was going to shot Eric dead! He set me up!" He explained.
"Why did you meet in the first place? Eric is my problem not yours you don't have to worry about him. I know that your angry about what he did to me but he's going to court next week and he will defiantly go down for it then we never need to see or hear from him ever again, he's lost all rights to Ciaran to he can't contact us" I told him.
He just got into the bed next to me and kissed me "I'm sorry, I love you" He kissed me and we laid down together and he soon fell asleep but I couldn't sleep thinking about this mess.
