"Would you mind if I went get Eli by myself I need to be alone for a little while" she signed. "I will heat up the lasagna just text me when you are on your way home".
She looked at him " can I trust you, please don't do anything that you would not do in front of me". He started laughing, " I will take a bath, if I have trouble I will wait in the tub for you to get back, but I doubt it I feel much stronger than I did yesterday".
She leaves , it felt so good for her to be so honest with him, all he had to do was make her trust him again.
He went run him a bath, he realized he had no clothes in her room, he goes to the stairs this would be hard. He suddenly remembers the dryer, he goes in to the laundry room the clothes he had in the hospital were in there.
He took a bath it had been so long since he had done that, Chicago was the last time and he had Bay with him and they needed a shower afterward.
He gets out and gets puts on his pj's, now to think of how he can make her forget about everything he had done before.
She text's him about an hour later and says she is on her way home, he fixed their left over lasagna and he fixed her a glass of wine. He found the wine in the back if the cabinet, he figured after today she needed it.
When they got home Eli was so happy to see Emmett, she put in his lap. " I made you a glass of wine, it is in the kitchen " she smiled.
"Why don't you eat and I will play with him then we can switch "he signed.
When they were both done with there dinner she fixed her third glass of wine " I am going take a bath in my bathroom do you need it".
" No I don't , please leave the door unlocked, I know that you haven't had a drink in a few months ". When she is done she puts on her pj's and looks in the mirror she loves him so much, it will take a lot to make this work, she is just so confused.
She goes into the living room, they are playing on the floor its after nine and she knew Eli needed to be sleeping. " I will try and put him to sleep" she signed. " Can he sleep down stairs in your room , I think I can feel when he is crying and I would feel better"
She smiled " I will bring the play pen into my room, I must say that he lucked out in the dad department"
She brings him his medicine and goes to bed, they walk into the room and he sits in the chair. She puts on her lamp and gets her knew sketch pad out and starts drawing them, he goes to get up " can you wait a few minutes I almost have the form of ya'll done"
About twenty minutes later she tells him he can get up, he puts Eli in his bed for the night. She was still drawing he lay's down " I am going to put these pillows between us, I hope you understand ".
"Goodnight" he signed, he put his back to her ,he had to be the bigger man. She drew for about an hour, then she puts it down, she needed to sleep.
"Bay come on baby wake up please wake up" he is standing on her side of the bed, talking to her. He wants to hold her but she is curled up with her hands on top of her head. He kneels down ," come on baby please ". She wakes up and looks at him,tears are rolling down her face. " sorry I will go in the living room, I didn't mean to wake you"
She walks out and upstairs, he is sitting on the sofa waiting for her. When she comes down he stands up " Bay how long has this been going on, when did the nightmares start"
"I don't want to talk, I will take the medicine they gave me when you were in the hospital, it makes me sleep "
" I understand that you don't want to talk tonight but please say tomorrow we can " she nodded her head " come to bed I need you to , I will not touch you, I can't imagine leaving you alone now"
" Really Emmett I have been alone for over a year now, go sleep with Eli I will be fine here".
