because of you (raura)

14.

it was a couple weeks later and the Lynches have moved into an apartment so that they could stay for a while. Laura and Reaux have been staying with them in the same room as Ross with him cuddling her and Reaux in a little twin bed.

the next morning Ross work up with Reaux whining in her little bed and trying to get off the bed but couldn't because she got Laura's shortness. He grabbed her and took her to the kitchen to let her have some breakfast. But no matter what he offered she wouldn't eat anything!

"come on eat, please" he begs offering her an egg blueberry biscuit with the kitchen a mess

she shakes her head whining "noo"

"please! do you want a pancake with chocolate chips" he asks going to the stove

"noo I want mommy!" she says climbing down

"no no no no no you can't I can take care of you" he says putting her back down

"fine" she pouted crossing her arms

then Laura walked in arms crossed in her pajama pants and grey cami

"what are you doing can you be a little quieter you'll wake up your family" she hushed cleaning the kitchen

"I can be loud if I want" he tells her

"don't snap at me!" she says

"I can snap at you if I feel like it!!" he yells

"no you can't especially infront of our little child!" she yells

"she is used to it she had Adam for a dad figure for four years she can handle a bit of yelling!!!" he yells throwing the pan on the floor

her and Reaux jumped and Reaux ran into Stormie and Marks room while Laura and Ross were still arguing

"AHHH" a scream comes from their room but they can't hear it over the screaming

when they walk out Stormie is holding her and Mark looked angry

"hey" he said trying to get their attention "hey!" he tried it three more times until he gave up walked over to the sink and grabbed the hose and sprayed them

"HEY!"AHH!" "DAD STOP IT!" "AHH!" they screamed as Ross covered her

he finally stopped "do you see what you did you scared your daughter! she's shaking!"

"she started it she came in here while I was trying to make breakfast" he yells

"I was trying to help you! she wasn't eating so I tried to help! then you snapped at me!" she yelled

"I didn't need help she was fine"

"STOP IT!" Mark yells again as they both hush and look down

"yall have been fighting non stop for all the time yall have been here" Stormie says hugging her

"I didn't do nothing he yelled at me!" she says

"you butted in!" he yelled

"did not!" they augured

"STOP!" he screamed spraying them again

"AH STOP" Ross yells

"momma can we go home. I want to go home" Reaux cries

"see what you did you scared her. come here baby" he says reaching for her

when Reaux doesn't go and backs away he looks down

"I want momma" she cries going to Laura

"this is why we couldn't stay together we always fight" Laura says

"I know, I know, we used to get along so long so well when we were younger, go to the fair, the movies" Ross says

"I know used to love eachother" she says

"I still love you" he says looking at her
