CHAPTER 15: HOLDING ON TO LOVE

Todd grabbed the scotch glass that was on the bar and threw it against the wall.

"FUCK!" Todd yelled.

"Todd calm down." Viki said.

"Viki you want to me to fuckin' calm down when I see these pictures." Todd said holding up the pictures.

"Todd-"

"That son of bitch did this." Todd said clenching the pictures.

Tea ran into the living room and saw Todd was close to losing his anger.

"What's wrong?" Tea asked Todd and Viki.

Todd looked into Tea's eyes trying to calm down. He knew he had to keep his anger in check because the kids were just outside. He didn't want to scare them. His hands were shaking. He was afraid. He didn't know who his enemy or enemies are. He didn't know how he was going to protect his family. The pictures in his hands fell to the floor. Tea looked to down to the floor.

"Oh my God, what is this?" Tea said bending down to retrieve the pictures.

"They were in the envelope that Jessica gave me." Viki answered looking at Tea.

"I'm calling Tomas. I'm also going to make sure Michael is still in jail." Tea said.

Tea walked over to the sofa to retrieve her purse. She got her cell phone out and called Tomas. She looked over to Todd who had began to pace. She walked over to him and put a hand on his shoulder.

"Tomas you need to come to Llanfair. Si, we are alright. Viki received an envelope with some pictures inside. You need to get in contact with Del. I'm calling the jail to make sure Michael is still there. Okay I see you when you get here." Tea ended the call.

Todd grabbed onto her hand. He closed his eyes. Tea reached over to caress his scared cheek.

"It's ok Todd. We'll be fine." Tea whispered.

"Look at your picture Tea." Todd whispered opening his eyes.

"Remember we are not going to run anymore." Tea said.

Todd nodded. He took a deep breath. He moved his hand to move Tea's hair away from her face. He swallowed hard.

"Aunt Viki what broke?" Starr asked at the doorway.

Todd and Tea looked over to Starr.

"Dad are you ok?" Starr asked with a look of concern.

Todd looked down to the ground.

Tea shook her head. Starr seeing her former step-mother walked into the living room slowly. She knew how to get her dad out of whatever was bothering him. She walked up to him. She took his hand into her own.

"It's ok Dad I'm here." She said.

Todd caressed his daughter's hand. He will always have a special connection to his first born daughter. If it wasn't for Starr he would not be here now. Starr had known from a very early age that when her father was close to losing it all she had to do was be there for him it might not be in the same room, but she knew she needed to stay close in case her father needed her.

Tea looked at Todd with tear in her eyes. Viki walked up to Todd as well and she put her hand on his shoulder.

"We are all here." Viki said.

Todd nodded his head. He look to see Tea. Tea smiled and made her call to Commissioner Buchanan.

"Bo hi I'm calling to make sure that Michael is still in custody. No we are fine. I just wanted to make sure. I see so he's in jail now. Thanks." Tea said ending her call.

"What Delgado?"

"He was release from the hospital last night, and he's in jail. Bo said that they will have the arrangement sometime next week." Tea said.

"Starr can you go check on the kids and keep them company." Tea said.

Starr looked at her father and then at Tea she nodded her head. She walked over to the patio doors to look after her brothers and sister.

Tea walked over to the shatter glass were Todd had thrown it against the wall. She bent down to pick up what she could. Todd handed her the trash can and bent down with her to pick up his own mess. He was calmer now.

"Delgado?" He asked trying to look into her eyes.

Tea looked into his eyes, "We will be ok. We will figure this out. We need to sit down and really talk about all this. We need to figure out just exactly who your enemies are Todd."

"I know, I'm so tired of all this. Just don't leave me." Todd whispered quietly.

Tea looked at Todd and shook her head.

"I'm not going to leave you Todd. I am here; I'm on your side quierdo. We are together remember."

Todd nodded his head and said, "I-I just don't want anything to happen to you. I just got you back."

Tea smiled and looked up to see Viki staring at them. She blushed. Todd looked over to see Viki looking at them as well. He slowly stood up.

"What? Do you mind?" He asked his sister.

Viki smiled a little and said, "No. I'm going to let Blair know what is going on. I'm sure Starr told Justin."

Viki smiled at Todd and left the living room.

They both heard the patio doors open and Dani running in. They both looked at their daughter waving at them as she made her way to the bathroom. They laughed at each other. He sat down on the sofa and put out his hand to Tea. Tea took his hand and smiled. She sat down next to him. Todd turned to make sure no one else was at the patio doors. He quickly bent to kiss her. A few minutes later he looked up to see his youngest daughter rushing back into the living room. She walked up to her parents and smiled and in a flash she was out the door.

"Tea-?" Todd asked making his confused expression on his face.

"I don't know she's your daughter." Tea answered giggling.

"Whatever." Todd said rolling his eyes and shook his head in amusement.

Blair and Viki came into the living room.

"Todd? Viki told me what's going on, and I was thinking maybe if it's ok with Tea that maybe Daniella should stay with me and Justin just for the night. She's having so much fun with the kids. She will be safe there you know."

"Yes, I think that's an excellent idea." Tea said before Todd could answer.

Todd looked at Tea.

"Ok I'm going to tell Justin and the kids." Blair said going to speak with her husband.

"Why?" Todd asked.

"Like I said earlier we need to figure out who our enemy is. Todd you just saw her a few moments ago. She is having fun. I don't want anything to ruin that for her." Tea said.

Todd nodded his head slowly.

Daniella came running into the living room and jumped on to her daddy's lap.

"Daddy, Blair said I can sleep over with Starr tonight." She said excitedly.

"Yeah Sparky, I want you to have fun with your brothers and sister."

"Oh I will." Daniella said getting down from her dad's lap then she went to her mother's lap and whispered in her ear, "Mommy, we didn't pack anything."

"Mija, you have stuff at Blair's." Tea said smiling.

They looked up when they heard the doorbell.

"Mija, why don't you go outside and play."

"Ok." Daniella said getting off her father's lap and going outside.

Todd got to his feet and walked up to the bar and poured some whiskey into the glass. He gestured to Tea. She shook her head. She looked at the living room doorway, there stood her older brother Tomas.

"What's going on?" Tomas asked walking up to Todd.

"Show him the pictures Delgado." Todd said swallowing his drink.

Tea handed him the pictures. Tomas reaction was of shock.

"Tea your picture was crossed out in red and by the looks of it in a fit of rage." Tomas said looking at each picture.

"I can't stand this! Nothing is going to happen to Delgado, so don't even think it. I'll protect my-my wife-er girlfriend, whatever the hell she is." Todd stated as he began pacing.

"Todd." Tea said in concern.

"Todd, you need to keep a clear head. I wanted to see what you had before I called Del." Tomas said.

"Tomas go talk to Del." Tea said.

Tomas went over to the foyer to make his call to his brother.

Tea walked up to Todd and stood in front of him.

"Todd please stop pacing for a moment." She said smirking.

Todd stopped and looked down into her eyes.

"Look at me quierdo I know you won't let anything happen to our family. I know you'll protect us. I want you to hold on to the love your family has for you." Tea said looking into his eyes. She found herself getting lost into those golden hazel eyes of his.

Todd pulled her into his arms, and looked up to see Starr, Jack and Daniella looking at them through the patio doors. They each had a smiled on their faces. Starr said something to Daniella who started giggling. Tea pulled away from Todd once she heard Daniella's infectious giggling. Pretty soon all of them were laughing. Tea smiled at Todd who was narrowing his eyes.

"Come on you want to laugh." Tea teased.

Todd rolled his eyes and said "Whatever!"

He then turned to the kids and yelled, "I'll remember that."

To which his children laughed even harder and louder, then Daniella start moving like she was dancing then she began to sing loudly so they all could hear her.

"Mommy and Daddy sitting on the Auntie Viki's couch K-I-S-S-I-N-G."

Tea laughed so hard her eyes began to water. The look on Todd face was priceless. He opened his mouth and then close it again. He turned to look at Tea and said, "Eww clearly she's your daughter." He then turned to his kids and exclaimed, "SHUT UP!" He turned his back on them. He closed his eyes trying really hard not to laugh.

"Oh quierdo, come on let it out." Tea teased still giggling.

"This is not the time or place, Delgado."

"Of course it is. Don't you feel the love your family is giving you."

"Delgado let's find out who wants to destroy our family. So I can feel their-"he swallowed and then "you know whatever you said just now."

Tea smiled and nodded.

"Let's go home."

Todd nodded his head. They said their goodbyes and headed back to the Penthouse.
