Chapter Thirty-One

Payton's Pov

"Babe? Baby? Baby wake up. Wake up please." I said. Kai's face was beaten up real bad. When me and Bryson went to go check on him, we saw that he was getting jumped by my three meaningless hookups. Bryson and I immediately ran over to them and began beating their asses. They ran away and we saw a bloody unconscious Kai on the ground.

I picked him up and Bryson called the ambulance. Once the ambulance got there they got Kai on the gurney and rolled him in the truck. I tried to get inside but they wouldn't let me. I told them that, that's my boyfriend and if you don't let me in I will get all of you fired. Long story short they let me in.

Currently Bryson and I are in the hospital and Kai is still unconscious. I hate my fucking aunt for saying those things.

I always knew she was homophobic, because she would always try to get me to do play dates with girls and I would tell her that I wanted to have a play date with boys but she just ignored all that.

When Kai threw that golden marble at her and hit her right smack in the middle of her forehead, I was shocked. Because one he has an excellent arm and that can definitely be used on the field and two, I didn't think he would do something like that, but she deserved it for talking all that shit about him, me, and his child!

Hate that bitch...and I hope she rots in hell.

I looked over at the small tv that was in the room and head a sound come from the hospital bed. I turn my head and I was Kai waking up. I turned my whole body and faced him.

"Kai, how are you feeling?" I said holding his hand.

"I feel a little dizzy, but, I think I'm alright? What happened?" Kai asked.

"You were getting jumped by those three French guys." Bryson said.

"Oh yeah, those weak mofos, can't take me one on one but wanna jump me...that's some sissy shit." He said.

"It's ok cause we beat their ass." I said.

"Really?" Kai smiled.

"Yeah."

"And I didn't get to see....damn." He said. Bryson and I laughed.

We heard the door open and it was mom and dad.

"Oh Kai, sweetie how are you?, how're you feeling?" Mom said holding his hand and touching his face like he was her son.

"I'm good Mrs. James." Kai said, then out of nowhere, he started crying.

"Kai why are you crying babe?" I asked.

"I'm sorry I hurt your sister, Mrs. James, she pissed me off and it's not in my character to hurt people unless they hurt me physically." He said.

"But you were hurt mentally. I get it. She talked about you and my son like dogs. When you hit her, I didn't help her because she deserved it...I would've did it too." Mom said.

"That women been a pain in my ass ever since I met her, so she deserved it, and before you ask, yes she is alive." Dad said.

"Trust me, that wasn't my next question." Kai said. We all laughed.

"Son, can I talk to you outside please?" Mom said.

"Sure." I said getting out of my chair and following mom.

"What's up?"

"So what's this I hear about Kai and his child."

"What are you talking about?"

"Oh don't play stupid boy. He basically said it out loud for the world to hear when he threw that marble." Mom said. I deeply sighed.

"Kai has a kid....a daughter, who will be turning one next month." I said.

"Oh that's great!...he's a bit young, but that's still great." She smiled.

"No..not really because he can't see her."

"Why? A parent should always see their child."

"I know mom, but in this case, he can't or else he will face possible jail time." My moms eyes widened and he hands were covering her mouth.

"He has a restraining order on him?" She asked. I nodded.

"How? Why?" She asked.

"That's something you should talk to Kai about if he wants to tell you, I only told you because you're my mom and I know you're not gonna tell a single soul." I said. Mom sighed.

"Ok.....what's her name though?" She asked.

"Onika." I said.

"Oh that name is so cute!" She said. I rollled my eyes. We walked back in the room and within a few minutes the doctor walked in.

"What's going on doc? How is he?" I asked.

"He's doing fine. Kai has a bit of a concussion. When the guy hit him he hit him pretty hard in the head, but thank god it was just that and not a serious brain injury." The doctor said.

"How long does he have to stay here for?" Bryson asked.

"Well actually you can take him home tonight, I have his prescription." The doctor said. I looked at Kai.

"Baby when we get home, I'm never leaving you out of my sight. You will rest until you feel like yourself again understood?" I said.

"Every word." Kai said in a raspy tone.

"Me and your father will get his prescription, while you three go on home. We'll take a taxi." Mom said. She grabbed the keys from her red coat and threw them to me.

"Take care of him Payton." Dad said.

"Will do pop." I said. One of the nurses that works at the hospital came in with a wheelchair. Me and Bryson lead kai to the wheelchair so that he wouldn't fall to the floor.

Once we got him all secure in the chair I rolled him out of the room and to the elevator. When we got out of the elevator we were outside. Me and Bryson grabbed Kai's arms and lead him to the car.

We slowly put him in the car because we didn't want him to bump his head. I got in the drivers seat and Bryson got in the passenger side, and we drove back home.

"Payton?" Kai said laying on my bare chest as we were laying on the bed, under the thick warm covers.

"Yes babe?"

"Again...I'm so sorry about how the way I acted earlier today. It wasn't me at all and I shouldn't had acted that way. When you told me about those three guys, I'm not gonna lie, I got a little jealous, and I'm not to good at hiding my jealousy." Kai said.

"I appreciate the apology again, but there's no need to apologize. When I put my hands on you I swear something just snapped inside of me. I would never ever in my life harm you in any way. I'm too much of a man to do those kinds of things. Now when my aunt started yapping I see why you got mad and snapped and honestly I don't blame you." I said.

Kai raised his head and looked at me. He got close to my face and began to kiss me.

My arms were wrapped around his waist as we continued to kiss. He caresses my cheek and was grooming my hair with his soft fingers. Then he slowly separated, with a long skinny string of saliva between us, on our bottom lips.

"What was that for?" I smiled.

"Just because.." He said and planted another one on my cheek this time. He snuggled back to his regular position and we just had a comfortable moment of silence.

"Kai?" I said playing with his hair."

"Yes?"

"How many kids do you want?" I asked. Kai quickly looked up at me.

"Why?" He asked.

"It was just a question. No need to panic." I chuckled.

"Well, since I already have one that I can't see. I'd say...four or five." He said.

"I was thinking about six or seven."

"Woah there buddy, six is pushing it." Kai chuckled.

"What can I say I want a big family." I said.

"Ok." Kai smiled. "Now if you had to name them all, what would you name them?"

"One has to be called Kayton, you can't change my mind otherwise, it's happening." I smiled.

"Ok, I like that name a lot actually, and for the other five I have no clue." Kai said.

"We'll figure it out together." I said holding him tight.

"What makes you think I wanna have kids with you?" Kai asked.

"Because you're my boo, and we have a lot of chemistry. Plus, if you find anyone that's good looking than me let me know. Cause you can't." I said. Kai hit me in the abs and we both began to laugh.

His current raspy laugh is music to my ears.

"Kai?"

"Yes Payton?"

"Promise me you won't leave me. Under any circumstance." I said.

"I promise but, why would you say that?"

This is gonna sound cheesy but...I honestly can't picture my life without you. Four months ago you came into my life so unexpected that it was perfect timing. When you were unconscious on the hospital bed, I was thinking nothing but the worst, but I had to have faith and pray to god that you would be alright and you are." I said.

Kai was rubbing his hands all over my chest in a slow motion.

"Payton I love you, but there's one thing you should have engraved in your brain."

"What's that?"

"It's that I'm not going any fucking where."
