Chapter 55
Buck P.O.V
I walk up and down. Thinking about my decision. What is right and what is wrong? I don't want both ways...but sadly this is not an option....I look at Carlos.
Buck: you promise to take care of them? *takes a deep breath*
Carlos: of course we will. T.K, Eddie and I will take care of Taylor and the kids.
Buck: I take the Deal *sighs* it's the best option...
Mr.Dawson: okay then I'll tell the judge that you take the deal.
Buck: Mr.Dawson? Is there any chance to get out earlier?
Mr.Dawson: if you do good yeah.
I hug Carlos tight. I wish I was able to say goodbye to Taylor...
Buck: thank you. For everything. Thanks for letting me see Taylor one last time
Carlos: you will see her again. She will visit you, we all will visit you. Just that Taylor isn't able to visit you until the baby is born. *sighs*
Buck: just take care of her. Someone needs to be there for her when the contractions start and the baby comes.
Carlos: i promise Buck
Mr.Dawson: okay I talked to the judge. Officer Reyes you bring him back to the station and then someone takes him to the LA County Jail.
I sigh and Carlos puts back on the handcuffs. We drive to the station and a few moments later an officer takes me to LA County...
I have to take off all my clothes and put on new clothes. A grey overall and some sneakers. They bring me to my cell. It's so small. A bed, a small toilet, and an empty shelf...so this is my home for the next months?...great....
Taylor P.O.V
Buck was acting weird yesterday when he was here...like he was saying goodbye for a long time...is he gone? Did I do anything wrong? I want to be with him. Someone knocks on my door.
Taylor: come in *sighs*
T.K: Hey. We thought we should visit mommy so she's doing better *smiles softly*
Claire: mommy mommy
Tyler: mom
T.K: careful kids. Your mom is hurt.
Taylor: it's okay T.K *smiles softly and kisses their heads* any news from Carlos? Is Buck out?
T.K: *sighs* taylor we should talk. He called me and told me about the meeting with his lawyer.
Taylor: he's not coming back right? *quietly*
T.K: no...I'm sorry taylor...he had two options, taking a deal and go to jail for 18 months or fight against it but if he loses the fight he could be in jail for 1 to 10 years *sighs*
Taylor: *tears roll over her face* so he's...he's..
T.K: yes *takes her Hand* but you have us. Carlos and I will be there for you until you're doing better, until your baby is here, until Buck is back. Of course Eddie will help as well. I will go to the nurses and give them my number. And Carlos and Eddie's number. If anything is wrong they will call one of us and we will come. When you start having contractions one of us will be here to hold your hand and be right by your side. We get through this time together okay?
Taylor: okay *sobs* thank you.
T.K: not for that
Claire: mommy sad?
Tyler: daddy?
Taylor: how should I explain it to them?...
T.K: i really have no idea... *sighs*
Taylor: honey *sobs* your dad isn't coming home for the next time. *sobs*
Claire: where is he?
Taylor: he's...he's...he's gone and will come back in a few months
T.K: in a few days we can visit him. If you want to.
Tyler: yes.
Claire: mom come home?
Taylor: no honey I'm sorry I can't come home *sobs*
Claire: I stay here
Taylor: you two okay listen *sobs and slowly sits up in pain* you two will live with T.K and Carlos and Eddie for the next time okay? In a few weeks I can come home and then we are together again okay? Until that you visit me every day alright?
Tyler: okay...
Taylor: i love you two so much
T.K: come on guys I think your mom needs some time to rest now. If you need anything text or call us. I'm home all the time.
Taylor: i can't say it enough...thank you
I give the kids one last kiss and they leave. I start to cry when they are gone. Buck, I'm so sorry that it happened...
T.K. P.O.V
I drive to the grocery store with the kids and we buy some stuff. I mean our fridge was almost empty and we didn't plan to feed two kids.
I prepare dinner while Eddie is playing with the kids. He comes into the kitchen.
Eddie: they are watching a show on the Tv. You need help here?
T.K: no it's okay I'm just cooking noodles. *sighs* still can't believe this is happening...
Eddie: right? It feels so unreal...so I checked the local traffic options and I can take the bus to physiotherapy so you don't have to worry about that. What will you do about work now?
T.K: to be honest I have no idea...I wanted to go back to work but right now I feel like it's the best idea to stay at home and be there for the kids and Taylor. Is this crazy?
Carlos: *closes the front door* what's crazy? Hey honey *kisses him*
T.K: that I want to stay at home until the situation is, back to normal *sighs*
Carlos: no it's not crazy in my opinion but I still think you should go to therapy.
T.K: and I think we need a bigger apartment *laughs* 3 people and two kids is hard *laughs*
Carlos: but it's not for forever. When Taylor is back
T.K: then she needs help. I mean she's still hurt and with a newborn and two kids.
Carlos: this is right but we have a second apartment then *laughs*
T.K: yeah you're Right. Okay can you set the table? The noddles are ready in a few minutes.
We eat dinner together and after that I bring the kids to bed. I read them a story and when they asleep I text Taylor that everything is fine. I lie down next to Carlos.
T.K: are we ready for this?
Carlos: for what? Raising two child's?
T.K: yes
Carlos: no we are not but we can do this. We have to do this.
T.K: you're Right
I cuddle up next to him and start thinking before going to sleep.
