Jack

I smashed our lips together, only to end all of this. I never meant to hit him. Never in my life did I ever mean to hit him, he just pushed me so far over the edge. Why would he even think about doing that with my anger issues? I rolled Alex over so he was on the bed and I held him there for a minute before I got up and walked over to the closet.

“W-what are you doing?” He asked, obviously out of breathe.

“If you blame me and I blame you. Then this is not going to work out. I thought we could work everything out once I found you but you pushed me away. I get it, I fucking ruined your life. You don’t have to tell me again.” I sighed as I grabbed a box full of tissues and started to dab at the blood on my face. “You want to start over, that’s fine. Have my house, have everything in it. I’m done with everything. I have enough money to support myself, I’ll get myself a house and do everything on my own.” I looked over to see the shock on his face as I finished packing my bags with all my clothes.

I took one more look around the room, and saw an old picture of my parents and I when I was about the age of five. I walked over to it and picked it up, packing it in my bag and zipping it up. I walked over to the door but stopped to say one more thing. “Oh, almost forgot.” I turned around and walked over in front of Alex, holding out my hand. He looked at me confused and I groaned. “The ring, Alex. Give me the ring.” I knew if he didn’t hurry up, I was going to break down like a baby and cry to him. He already had tears in his eyes, but reluctantly took the ring off his finger and placed it in my hand. I took one last look at him before turning around and picking back up my suitcase, reaching the door, I stopped again. “One more thing, Alex. I will be fighting for custody over Miracle. You can guarantee that.”

I walked out of the room and went across the hall, seeing Miracle standing up in her crib. I set down my suitcase by the door and walked over to her. I picked her up out of the crib and held her close to me. “Daddy promises not to leave you baby. I’ll be back to see you really soon. I love you, sweetheart.” I pressed my lips to her forehead and set her back in her crib. By the look on her face, I could tell she knew what I was saying. The look broke my heart but this had to be done.

I gave her one last kiss and walked back over to the door, picking up my suitcase and walking out of her room. My old room’s door was still open, and Alex was sitting on the bed with shock all over his face. “You have about ten seconds before she starts crying. Give her a bottle, she will be fine. Bye Alex.” I said quickly, then just as I started walking down the stairs, I heard the soft cries of my sweet girl. The cries that could send me into tears in moments.

I walked out the front door and got in my car. Starting it up and pulling off onto the road. I felt a few tears trail from my eyes to down my cheeks as I continued to drive. I told myself I would call Rian, Cass, and Zack tomorrow morning. Let them know what’s going on. But for now, a nice hotel with have to do.
