Randy returned home after his work out just to see his daughter playing in the floor with her new toys she had gotten yesterday for her birthday. He smiled to himself as he walked closer to her. Peyton just happened to look up and see her daddy coming towards her. She jumped right up and ran straight to him.
Daddy, daddy, daddy your home. The four year old said
Peyton bear. I missed you so much. He said kissing her all over
I missed you to daddy. She said threw the giggling.
Riley heard her daughter's laughter and walked out of the kitchen just to see Randy was the one making her laugh. She smiled as she saw how happy her daughter was to see her father. Riley just stood there watching Peyton play with her daddy and showing him everything that she had got for her birthday. She finally decided to walk back into the kitchen when she heard the phone ringing. Randy heard it too that was when he scooped up Peyton and walked towards the kitchen. By the time he got there Riley was already off the phone.
Hey baby girl. Who was that? He asked as he sat down at the table
It was Kristen. She said not even looking at him "Are you hungry Peyton?" She asked
Yes, mommy. She said still sitting her daddy's lap.
Okay. What would like to eat sweetie pie? She asked
Whatever daddy wants. She said smiling
How about some of mommy's famous peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. He said smiling.
Ya! I want that mommy. She said
Alright! Riley said as she turned around and started making them.
What did Kristen want? He asked her
Just letting me know when she was dropping RJ back off. She said to busy making their lunch.
What's wrong? He asked
Nothing! I'm just a little moody that is all. She said finishing up the last sandwich
Are you sure? He asked knowing that something was bothering her.
I'm very sure. She said walking towards table setting down the food.
Thank you mommy. Peyton said
Your welcome sweetie. She said kissing her on the cheek.
Don't I get one of those. Randy asked pushing his cheek out
Instead of her kissing him she pecked his cheek and walked out of the kitchen. Randy knew that something was bothering her, but he didn't want to make a scene in front of Peyton. He finished up his lunch and then notice that she had fell a sleep in his lap. He held onto her tight got up and walked straight to her bedroom. He laid her down on her princess bed and kissed her on the forehead. He walked out of her bedroom and went to his just to find Riley lying down. He walked over to the bed laid down behind her and wrapped his arms around her.
Now you want to tell me what is bothering you? He whispered in her ear
I'm not in the mood to fight with you. She said back to him
What makes you think that we are going to fight? He asked
Because that is all we ever do anymore. She said getting up off the bed
No we don't. he replied
Randy, yes we do. RJ sees us fight all the time that is why he keeps Peyton with him most of it. Riley said with her hands on her hips.
Riley, we don't fight all the time. If we did we would be on our way to a divorce by now. He said getting off the bed walking over to her
Are you so blind that you cant even see it when we are together? She asked pushing him away
See what? What is it that I'm suppose to see Riley? He asked
If you cant see what it is going on right in front of you then I'm not going to be the one to point it out to you. She said
Where the hell is all this coming from? He asked
Where hell do you think Randy? She yelled
I don't know. He said
You want to know so bad. You're an asshole that cant even pick up his cell and call someone just to say hey. You didn't even call me back yesterday when I was having trouble getting Peyton to stop crying for you. She said before she was cut off
Riley, I'm sorry that I didn't call you back about Peyton, but I was busy trying to find a fucking way home. As far as me calling just to talk I'm sorry that I'm out there trying to support us. He yelled back
Before Riley could even answer Randy had walked out of the room, down the stairs and out the front door. Riley just stood in her room crying she couldn't believe that he couldn't see that all they ever did anymore was fight. She fell to the ground, pull her legs to her chest and just balled her eyes out. Randy on the other hand drove all the way to Kristen and Ted's house to pick up his son, but when he got there they were already gone. So he decided that he would drive for a little while and give him and Riley some breathing room because that was a heated fight they had. He just couldn't believe that she was trying to say that all they ever did was fight anymore.
Back at Randy and Riley's house
Kristen and Ted had just dropped off RJ when Bob and Elaine pulled up in the driveway to pick the kids up. Riley had all of their things packed for them. She felt like she had to let the kids go with them so that when Randy got back home they could either talk or fight all over again.
Alright kiddos are you ready to go? Bob asked
Yes pop pop. Peyton said
Yes grandpa. RJ said smiling, but looking at his mommy.
Okay, give your mama a goodbye hug and kissed. Hs said
Bye, bye, Mommy. Peyton said hugging her and kissing her
Bye sweetie, you be good for grandma and grandpa. She said
I will mommy. She said jumping into Bob's arms as he headed out the door to put her in the car seat.
Bye Mom. Are you sure your going to be okay? RJ asked
I'll be fine honey. You go have fun with your aunt and uncle and take care of your little sister. Riley said hugging her little version of Randy.
Alright mom. He said walking out behind his grandpa.
Honey are you sure everything is fine? Elaine asked
Yes. Everything is fine, just waiting for Randy to get back home. She said
If you need anything you know all you have to do is call. Elaine said
I know. Riley said hugging her mother in law.
As she watched them drive away she felt better about the fact that her kids would be away for the night. She didn't want RJ to hate his father even more than he already did. She went back into the empty house and sat down in the living room and waited for her husband to return. Three hours later Randy finally came back home just to see the lights were out. He got out of the his Hummer and went into the house just to see Riley had fallen asleep on the couch. He tried to be quit, but it didn't work because she woke up just to see him trying to walk away.
What time is it? She asked him
It is 9 pm. He said
Oh, I must have fallen asleep waiting for you. She said getting up and stretching
Where are the kids? He asked
Please tell you didn't forget that you asked your parents to keep them tonight. She said walking around him.
That's right. He said smacking his forehead making Riley laugh a little. What is so funny Mrs. Orton? He asked
You are when you forget things that you have done Mr. Orton. She said
He just smiled at her. Everything became so quit after that. Riley was thinking about a lot of things that had happened while Randy was trying to figure out what to say next. Finally the quit came to an end.
About earlier, I'm sorry for going off on you the way that I did. Randy said
I'm sorry for being a bitch to you, but you have you understand that ever since your character became an asshole it seems like you have been an asshole towards me and the kids lately. She said walking to him
Baby, you know that I don't mean to act like it. It just that I have been under a lot of stress lately and it seems like I cant take it out on anyone at work. So when I do come home you're the only person that I can take it out. He said
Well try not to because your making RJ think that he don't like us anymore an he is beginning to hate you. She said
Baby girl, I will try my best to stop. I promise you this. He said wrapping his huge arms around her.
As long as you try. She said leaning in to his chest.
I love you Riley. He said making her look at him.
I love you too Randy. She said right before they kissed each other
Everything went great for the rest of the night. Randy and Riley spent the night holding each other and talking about everything. For that moment it seemed like everything was getting back to normal. But what they didn't know was something was going to change that sooner than expected.
Chapter 2 complete.
What do you think is going to happen that is going to change them?
