Maybe One day, I'll come back.

“It’s always been fine there up until that asshole started creeping. Nick said he was in an all black Audi R8 with blacked out windows, and a blacked out windshield, I don’t know who the fuck he is. I don’t know if he’s with the government or another gang member, but I’m not risking anything.” He rolled his eyes.

Mika ran his fingers through his hair. “Yeah, and I’m sick of always having to look over my shoulder, of always having to have a gun on me, to always have to worry about you when I’m not around. We can’t find the fucking guy, we have no idea who he is, and I’m not sticking around to find out who he is or what he wants.” He shifted. “Yeah, whatever.” He muttered, going to the kitchen.“

“Neither do I, sweetheart. And all we can do is try to prevent it,” he murmured softly with a gentle Smile now. “Well… that’s true. And I guess… that’s what he’ll get then. Keeping the other if he ends up as so. Because I don’t want Ariel taken away.”

“Never burnt out. It’s when everyone is bickering with one another that it stresses me. But even then I can hold it all together,” he hummed softly. “I’d hope not. I wouldn’t – want something to happen after that. Not.. again. And I mean, maybe.. is it worth it to let him get away with it?”

Mika rubbed his face. “No, we were in a bad neighborhood on the south side, it wasn’t safe there, nothing was safe there. Not your home? Kylie, I’m sorry, but we had to fucking move. Nick found a dude taking pictures of our house and then staking the place out for two whole days. Like we couldn’t be there anymore. But you know what? Move back into the city if you hate it here much.”

“Kind of the life I chose. I like being a busy body with everything. With you, with everyone and the kids,” he hummed softly. However his nose crinkled softly now. “Good, he doesn’t deserve to see Harlow. And maybe.. we can fight for them if you want? Because – his line of work is dangerous and he has to be gone a lot. Don’t you think?”

It was safer outside of Chicago. They were within the city limits, but not exactly in the main part of the city. The houses were also nicer, and it was quiet out here. He did miss living in the main part of the city, and on days where he had nothing planned, he would take Kylie out into the city to eat and to just walk around. He knew she missed living in the city just as much as he did. But when she would go to college and come home later and later, it concerned him. Some of the guys thought she might be cheating, but Mika knew better. But today he had been drinking, and he did a few lines before Kylie got home, so he was giving her the third degree. “Moved so I could protect you better, so you could be safer. This area has the best security. This is our new home, get used to it.”

“I want to focus on everyone. Not just a single person because of things,” he said softly now. “Knew it was a bad idea… you didn’t take Harlow to see him after did you? Baby, you don’t have.. to ever see him again, okay? And I know.. I think this will be our last little ones for a while okay?”

“That I mean, I’m here. And am around whether it’s through text and call or physically you know?” He shrugged slightly now. “I’m kind of unsure too much of everything.. just life Yknow?”

“It’s.. baby.. it’s a valid thing no matter,” he said with a soft sigh and shook his head now. “Think he’d tell you if… something came of that? I don’t want you to feel guilty for being tired, sweetheart. That’s – you’re pregnant. It’s natural..”

“And? The shit going on with Jake is nothing compared to you and.. this. To what happened. Baby..” gray eyes had went a little dark out of hurt and concern for the male. “Are you.. okay? Do you – is anything wrong? Did something.. happen beyond that?”

Eggsys hands brushed along her sides with a soft sigh now. “What do you mean let it go? I mean.. I’m here are I not?”

“Baby..” Romeo could feel his own body tense and he moved to touch max but also scared him that he would pull away honestly. “Why didn’t.. you tell me? Why would he.. do that? Out of hate? Revenge? I’m.. I’m so sorry..” His tone was soft even if his body filled with anger.

“Only came back for Ariel.. wanted to see her at least once,” he said with a soft sigh, fingers playing with the hem of his shirt. “Please? Because it’s.. hard, here..”

A brow lifted curiously at max telling Harlow to go check the twins. But he didn’t question until max was telling him they needed to talk and that he sat up. A frown crossed him a little and sat up now. “Riding you?” He questioned now, brows furrowed deeply. “What do you mean? Like – on… you?”
