I woke up the next morning after sleeping through the night for the first time in a very long time. I had slept for 12 hours and the difference was night and day from before. I sighed happily before I remembered that Bray had him all night and I still wasn't too sure that Abigail was gone. I hurried out of bed sliding on my robe and walking out to the living room where Bray was sitting with Maverick giggling in his arms.
"Good morning Angel" Bray said with a smile as Maverick looked over with his usual big grin.
"Good morning" I said happily as I kissed Maverick's head before Bray and I stared at each other for a second. I still didn't know how to act around him or even if we could fix what we had before. I wanted more than anything to believe that Abigail was gone and that this Bray would be around forever but I couldn't trust him.
"You must of needed the sleep" Bray said quietly as I nodded looking down at my feet.
"Yeah… Thank you for… taking care of him" I said not taking my eyes off of my feet.
"Of course, he's our son and I already love him" Bray said quietly as I walked into the kitchen to get myself a cup of coffee.
"He loves you so much too Bray. Usually he's screaming his head off all night long. I think you are just so calming" I said busying myself with making my cup of coffee.
"It could be. I know that you used to think I was calming" He said quietly as I looked up biting my lip.
"You are… I still think that" I mumbled as I poured the coffee creamer into the mug and sighed. He looked back at me and I looked down again, looking into his eyes right now made me want to cry or run into his arms saying I forgave him.
"So what are your plans today?" Bray asked after a few seconds of silence.
"Well I'm going out tonight, Katie's parents are going to watch Maverick and Remi tonight" I said walking back into the living room as Bray raised his eyebrow.
"Going to the bar with everyone?" he asked as I nodded sitting on the couch next to him.
"Yes but I'm planning on having a few drinks" I said as Maverick looked between the two of us before busying himself with trying to grab Bray's dreads.
"Braun invited myself as well so I guess I'll go" he said acting as if he wasn't able to go if I didn't.

Later that night,

Bray and I walked into the bar seeing everyone already there. I reluctantly agreed to let him be my designated driver when he brought up it was his turn. This was my first night out since having the baby and I already missed him. I had already cried on the way to the bar and I knew that later tonight I would have to stop myself from going to get him at 3 AM. I felt Bray reach his hand over before he realized and pulled it back. We had a weird tension between us all day and right now, I was just happy to be around our friends.

"There they are!" Braun rawred already a few drinks in as I grinned over at him.
"Braun!" I squealed as I ran over hugging him as he laughed. I smiled over at his girlfriend, Mandi, hugging her as Bray walked over to the table.
"Hey Bray" Braun said shaking his hand as I walked over hugging Luke and his girlfriend Ashley.
"You okay?" He whispered as I just nodded with a smile that I could tell was fake.
"I…. Its weird" I whispered back as Ashley gave me a sad smile.
"You need a drink!" she said grabbing my hand as Katie and Mandi joined us walking up to the bar.
"What's wrong? Did he hurt you?" Katie asked concerned as I shook my head.
"God no, he… he's been perfect" I said leaning against the bar as Mandi shook her head.
"You love him" she said as I nodded looking back over at him talking to Erick.
"I love him so much but I'm scared" I whispered as Katie shook her head and Mandi just smiled.
"You need to talk to him, tell him you are scared and maybe… you can work it out" Mandi said as Ashley just nodded.
"You need to tell him how you feel, maybe he feels the same way" Ashley said as Braun walked up behind us.
"Ladies! Let me get your drinks" Braun said happily as he ordered us each a shot of Jack Daniels.
"Here's to… a great night out" Braun said as he each took our shots and I winced feeling the burn down my throat. I saw Bray looking over and his lips turn into a smile.
"Another round" I told the bartender as Braun fist bumped.
"Hell yeah!" Braun shouted as everyone's eyes widened like I was crazy. We all took the next shot and Katie shook her head.
"Jesus I'm done" She said shaking her head laughing as

"Let's dance!" Mandi said as the 5 of us headed out to the dance floor. I tried not to look over at Bray but I could see him watching me the entire time. We danced for a couple songs before Mandi sighed and smiled over at me.
"I'm tappin out, dance with him" she said as I nodded and moved over dancing with Braun.
"He's watchin' you" Braun said as quietly as he could as I nodded trying not to looking sad. The music started to pick up and 'Country Girl (Shake it for me) by Luke Bryan played as I laughed dancing with Braun innocently.
"Ya'll aint done… I can tell ya that much" Braun said as I shrugged not wanting to talk about everything that was going on in that moment. I wanted to forget but I knew I could never not think about it. A minute later, I felt hands on my hips and instantly knew it was Bray.
"Braun, my man, I'm gonna have to cut in" he said smoothly as I looked back at him then back at Braun before nodding.
"Of course" Braun said backing up some but keeping his eyes on us. I looked over seeing Luke staring over as well as the girls looking over from where Braun was.
"They are protective" Bray said as I just nodded.
"Do you blame them?" I asked as I could feel him shaking his head against my shoulder.
"Not at all" he said quietly as I turned in his arms facing him as the music slowed down and 'Remind Me' by Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood started to play. I looked at his eyes and melted myself against his chest and I felt him holding me close as we swayed to the music. We stayed silent as I swayed to the beat of the music and listened to his heart beating. I felt home for the first time in a long time.
"I love you so much little lamb, you are my everything" he whispered as I looked up at him nodding before we started to lean in to kiss. Our lips almost touched before I pulled back shaking my head.
"Bray… I… I can't" I said before walking away leaving him in the middle of the dance floor.

3 shots later and 2 AM, Bray and I pulled up at home after a short, silent drive home. I got out of the car slowly knowing already that I would be regretting the shots in the morning. We walked up to the porch before Bray stopped.
"We need to talk" He said as I shook my head. All I wanted to do was go inside the house and go to bed.
"No, we don't. Bray what is there to say?" I said knowing I was too drunk to even care about what I was saying at that point.
"There is a lot to say" Bray said leaning against the door frame as I shook my head.
"I love you and…" He started to say as
"So what am I supposed to do? Forget what you did to me? Forget that had Abigail been successful that you wouldn't have me or Maverick in your life ever again? Do you want me to forget that you missed the birth of our son? Forget how many nights I cried, screamed, and had nightmares because of you? How many nights Luke stayed over because I was terrified of you? How Katie had to hold me while I cried because of you? How Braun held my hair back while I was having morning sickness with OUR son?" I yelled as Bray shook his head instantly regretting that he brought it up. I felt tears in my eyes knowing I needed to say all of this but wished it wasn't now. I suddenly wasn't feeling drunk anymore, just sad and angry.
"No, I'm not…." Bray started to say as I stopped him
"Then what Bray? You expect everything to be okay again? You expect me to run into your arms because you decided to come back and not abandon us? You were probably out fucking everything that moved and I was here… waiting for you faithfully because I loved you. Now… I bet that you think you are the fucking hero somehow" I yelled as Bray tried to say something and I held my hand up.
"I needed you, I begged you to come home. I begged you to come home for our son but you couldn't even do that. You missed his birth, his first smile, his first laugh… Do you realize how hard it is to look at him? How I sobbed my eyes out seeing him because he looks just like you? You…. You…" I started to wipe my tears away as Bray just stared at me. I didn't know what came over me but our lips instantly crashed down on each others. I knew I shouldn't want this but just to feel him again made me feel okay again.

I jumped up wrapping my legs around his waist as he held me up and flung the doors open. We crashed into the wall as his lips went to my neck instantly biting and sucking.
"I was faithful angel, I never strayed. I could never dream of it" he whispered into my ear as I felt his teeth against my neck again causing me to cry out.
"Bray" I moaned out as pulled his dreads out of the hair tie and felt his hands in my hair. He moved us into the bedroom and we crashed against the door. I felt him steady us before pulling my shirt over my head and throwing it in the corner. I instantly felt myself becoming self-conscious, I had a few stretch marks from being pregnant, I obviously hadn't lost all of the weight yet, and my breasts were enormous.
"So gorgeous, so perfect, so fucking beautiful" he growled as his hands went to my bra, unclasping it and tossing it in the corner along with my shirt. It didn't take us long to fall back on the bed and I instantly moved to take his shirt off as I straddled his lap.
"Daddy you are so fucking sexy" I whispered as he groaned loudly. I climbed off of his lap and slid my jeans down slowly, thankful that I had on my sexiest underwear that fit me now. I bent over slowly as I could hear a moan escape. I turned around instantly feeling sexy just by the way he looked at me.
"Angel you are the sexy one" he groaned as I knelt down next to him and licked his tattooed arm. The more he moaned watching me, the more I turned on I was getting.
"Fuck this" He said unbuttoning his pants as quick as he could and pulled me into his lap.
"Daddy" I squealed as I watched his boxers slide down and his cock was already hard. I felt him push my lace panties to the side and slide in me as we both groaned. He fit perfectly inside me, filling me up just like he did before.
"Did daddy make you this wet?" He moaned into my ear as I nodded panting. I knew neither of us would last very long but
"So fucking wet, I touched myself thinking about you while you were gone" I moaned into his ear as he shook his head.
"Daddy doesn't like when you touch yourself" He said as I started to ride him rougher.
"It felt damn good" I said with a smirk as I felt him tug my hair gently and shake his head.
"Now you just want me to fuck you hard don't you?" Bray whispered as I bit my lip and ground my hips.
"Daddy please" I whined as he stood up and he gently slammed me to the bed. He started pounding into me as our eyes never once left mine. I could feel myself starting to tighten around him.
"Scream my name" Bray grunted as I felt his hand on my clit rubbing slowly.
"Bray! Oh shit!" I screamed as I started to orgasm around him. I could feel him tighten up on top of me and start cumming inside me. We laid back on the bed panting together as I smiled over at him.
"God I missed you" I said with a smirk as Bray smirked back over at me.
