BECKYS POV
Chelsea and I go to a place where I used to go to decompress... the little waterfall sight. Not to far from the house. Very few people knew about that spot..so I knew we wouldn't be bothered.
I took my little girls hand and we sat down on some rocks.
"Wow!" The little girl says taking in the view
"Cool,huh?" I asked her.
She nods "Yea." She says
"So,Did you have that vision again or..??" I asked her
"Yeah.it was a dream. But...it felt like,real mommy." She told me
I know what she seen in her dream or vision probably had to happen for real. She's had these ever since I left Luke.
"It's gonna be ok,baby." I say as I hug her. She's 4 but she's very smart
"I'm scared... I don't want him to come back,but I fell like he will mommy. I dint want him too. He hurt us." She said crying
"Baby,he's not coming back,EVER. You daddy will make sure if it." I told her and kissed her little head.
"It's gonna be alright,we've moved on. I will never ever put you through that again. I'm sorry." I say to her with tears in my eyes now. Tears of regret,tears of sadness...
We just stay like that. Hugging for what felt like hours but it had only been minutes.
We talked about more things,for about 2 more hours.
You wanna,get food?" I asked her
" yes,please." She begged
"Of course! We loved food." I said
"Yea..mhmmhmm." She said as we both laughed
We got in the car and got take out since we both had big puffy red eye from crying the whole time.
"Ready to go home?" I asked her
"Yea,I'm sleepy." She said yawning
"You're,always sleepy." I said rubbing her head
About 10 minutes later we pull up to the house and knock. Colby finally opens the door.
And pulled us in for a really tight hug,like really tight.
"Colby,you're squishing us." I barley say
"Yea,move." The little girl said
"Sorry,I just missed y'all." He said " and have you guys been crying? Your eyes are all red and puffy." He said
"Yea. I had a good talk with mommy." She says as we sit on the couch
"Yea. And tears were shed." I say
"I can tell. Everything all right though?" He asked with a look if concern
"Yea,we just had a heart to heart. Of course we were gonna cry." I said. He nodded his head
We both heard a yawn escape from our daughters mouth.
"All right you little stinker, let's get you cleaned up and in bed." I say to Chelsea
"Okay." She says
"Daddy or mommy tonight." Colby asked her
"Ummmmm...hmmm." She said with her finger in chin pretending to think.... " I want daddy" she finally said
"Ohh!! Good choice,kid" he said scooping her up and going up the stairs.
While he does that, I do my night routine and hop in to bed. I told myself I would wait for chels. But I think you guess. It didn't happen like that.
I was woke up by legs jumping in the bed.
"Alright,kiddo. Time for bed lie down." I told they hyper little 4 year old.
"Daddy has to read my bedtime story first." She said as she sat down next to me
"That's right." Colby said coming in the room with her favorite bed time book.
5 pages in and she was a sleep.
"Good night my angel." He said kissing her forehead. He began to walk out of the room
"Where are you going?" I asked him
"To my room,so you guys can sleep." He said
" Who said we didn't want you to sleep with us?" I asked him
" wait,you want me to sleep in the same bed as you?" He asked
"Uh.yea." I say in a 'duh' yay
"Wow,ok." He said as he climbed into the bed.
"We're making progress,beautiful." He continued
"Don't push your luck." I told him in a sharp voice
"I'm not. So you really don't mind me sleeping here?" He asked
"Don't make me change my mind. If I can tolerate sleeping in the same bed as you with her.. she said pointing to the sleep little girl
".... then we'll be in a works in progress." I said
"Ok. Thanks for giving me another chance." He said
" At being my friend.. your welcome. But let's get some sleep. I have no idea what tomorrow has in store" I say to him
"Goodnight,Rebecca."
"Goodnight,Colby"
I laid down thinking if I were making the right choices with giving Colby a second chance. I think everyone deserves another chance to better themselves.... I knew to listen to my head and not my heart. This go around..
I just hope it leads to the right decisions...
I'm tired now,gurlll!! Word count (838)
