Brian
I don't speak to Katherine for two weeks. Why should I? She lied to me, drugged me up. Who does that? She's a mother now. Her fighting days should be over. She should be setting an example for her daughters. She makes attempts to talk to me but I just walk away. I can't deal with her bullshit right now.
"Hey, Brian." Alina snapped at me one night when Kat was in the shower. We were feeding the girls.
"What?" I frowned.
"Kat, wife. You love her. Stop being bitch and work it out."
"She betrayed me, Al."
"No one perfect. Kat, no perfect. She love you."
Ruby began crying out of no where. I was confused. She's the greediest out of them all, never fusses when she eats. And when Ruby is cranky, there's no calming her down. Not cooing to her or singing to her. We just have to cuddle her until she calms down. And so I did.
Katherine ran into the room then in a towel. Water drops were still on her body.
"Why is she crying?" Katherine asked, concerned.
I stayed quiet.
"Don't know." Alina shrugged. "She eat, she cry."
Katherine took Ruby from me. "It's okay baby."
Katherine took Ruby into the other room with her along with the bottle. Alina handed Quinn over to me.
"Brian, you act like little boy. Forgive and go." Alina hissed. "Now."
"Alina."
"You forgive me for drugs. Forgive wife for betrayal." Alina told me.
I stood, still feeding Quinn. "You're bossy, you know that?"
"Thank me later." Alina called after me.
I walked into the bedroom. Kat had Quinn resting on the bed as she shifted through the closet to find some pajamas. I sat on the bed.
"Kat, uhm..." I began. I turned to look at her.
She dropped her towel abruptly. There was a moment of silence as she watched me stare at her gorgeous figure. She gave me a smug smile and proceeded to putting on clothes. Fuck. I forgot about the speech I was going to give her about what we should and shouldn't do as parents. And she knew she threw me off. I watched her moisturize her body.
"You were saying?" She asked with a deep sigh.
"Can we just cut the shit?" I asked.
"Brian, you were the one not talking to me. It wasn't a case where guns were blazing and I was being kicked up and down the hallway. We went to retrieve a chip from a base that no one was in. You were overreacting as usual. So don't sit here and ask me to cut the shit because you were the one that shut me out for weeks." Katherine snapped.
"Babe, I'm trying to apologize." I rolled my eyes.
"Oh now I'm 'babe'? You have a lot of shit with you." She hissed. "But I love you."
I looked at her and smiled. "No more drugs."
"Brian, you drugged me before." She reminded me.
"Because you were going crazy on everyone." I argued.
"I go crazy on everyone maybe four times a week." Kat threw her hands up.
I nodded.
"We are married Brian, we have kids. We need to communicate with each other, love." Kat finally whispered.
"Exactly. You looked me in the eye and told me you weren't gonna go, Kat. And you did."
"I fucking went because I wanted to. To be honest, I didn't feel that hot on the job. You don't control me, Brian. You don't." She picked up Ruby. "I love my girls more than anything. What mother doesn't?"

Weak chapter, I'm sorry 😐
Supernatural has me crying right now. Jack is so precious and him being reunited with Cas is so cute.
But you know what really made me cry? DAVID AND LIZA BREAKING TF UP! I WAS IN TEARS FOR TWO HOURS AFTER THR VIDEO AND THEN THEY POSTED THOSE GOODBYE PICTURES! I'm just glad it wasn't a bad breakup and they still respect each other.
