Chapter 31

                                    

                                          
So let me put it like this, THAT IS BRAXTON FUCKING COLLINS. Imagine him a little younger, until maybe I find another one.
                          
Braxton's POV 
                          
"Braxton look at this," Aubrey said and I had to hold back my groan. I love my girl, I do but I hate shopping with her. 'Braxton, look at this' 'Braxy, buy me this' 'this would be so cute on you'. Like can I just send a clone in instead of me? I headed around the corner before Aubrey caught an attitude.
                          
"Boo," she said with a scary mask but I just looked at her. "Why can't you at least fake being scared?"
                          
"Because nothing scares me," I said and I looked to see Casey. "Except that, Casey, Halloween is next week." She slapped me.
                          
"Asshole, get out of my way," she growled as she pushed me.
                          
"I'm sorry, she's in one of her moods," Jayden said and walked to her. "You can't just hit people Casey." She shot him a cold look and he raised an eyebrow. "Don't give me that look because we can fight." She rolled her eyes and looked back at the costumes.
                          
"Braxton, why don't we do a couple costume?" Aubrey asked. "It's the first time we're going trick or treating together."
                          
"We're not going trick or treating," I said.
                          
"We're going trick or treating," she snapped getting in my face.
                          
"Fine, we're going trick or treating," I said and she backed up and smiled. Them damn hormones, God give me strength not to beat some ass today. 
                          
"Why don't we dress up as the purge?" Aubrey asked. 
                          
"Can I have a gun?" I asked.
                          
"A fake one," she said. "I don't want that stuff around the baby." 
                          
"You do realize this baby is gonna be in the mafia, right?" I asked.
                          
"I want it to be innocent in my womb," she said. 
                          
"So since we're mafia, we're not innocent?" I asked.
                          
"People that hurt other people aren't innocent," she said and walked away. "Dad never took me trick or treating. He told me monsters were in the world." I walked to her and I kissed her cheek. 
                          
"There are monsters in this world, but I'd do anything to protect you," I said and she looked up at me. "And our little one."
                          
"I really love you, my King," she said. "Superman has nothing on you."
                          
"I love you too Queen," I said and kissed her nose and she laughed. 
                          
Sadie's POV 
                          
My face was better, the bruises were faded but visible. They said I have to be careful playing football because of my head. I was in the kitchen eating strawberries when I heard something drop. I grabbed the knife that laid next to me and turned around. 
                          
"Don't kill me," Grayson said and I breathed and put it down.
                          
"I'm sorry, I'm not dressed," I said. "I just didn't feel like putting on clothes." I noticed what the sound was was his bag he dropped. "So you're back from Florida?"
                          
"Sadelyn," he said and swallowed. "Why didn't anyone call me?"
                          
"I don't know, I was unconscious," I said. "But how was your trip?"
                          
"It was nice, hot there too," he said and I nodded, I turned around because I felt the tears coming. "Sadie."
                          
"I just wanna be alone," I said. 
                          
"I bet you do," his voice closer. "But you'll have to be alone with me." I looked up at him and he kissed my head. I walked past him and to the living room, I sat on the couch. He came in and he sat beside me. "You want me to turn the TV on?"
