Going Solo: Kerri 2.17

The house felt empty without Davis. I missed him terribly. I called him nearly everyday but he would only speak to me for a few minutes. Boyd said he was doing well. He was spending time with his younger brother and had even seen my mom a few times. Each time Boyd mentioned how happy Davis was, I worried more and more that he wouldn't want to come back. Sha and I put the wedding plans on hold. It was her idea. She saw how upset Davis' attitude towards us made me, so thought we should wait to see how things played out with him. I was grateful for her understanding and support.

Puppy ownership did have it's down. Rascal had a few incidents in the house. Sha was good about correcting his behavior and cleaning up after him. Making the adjustment from having a toddler to have a kid was still a work in progress for me. I wanted to do more things for Davis, but he wanted to be a big boy and do it himself.

Our house grew by one. Sha loved animals and thought that Davis needed a puppy to grow up with. (currently forgot what I named him) Davis loved the little puppy and who was I to say no to a face like that?

"When were you planning on telling me I had a son?"

"I...I wasn't."

"You need to put her son down, and leave now." Sha said, but Boyd ignored her.

His eyes were focused on me, and me alone.

"You weren't going to tell me?" he yelled.

"Boyd...what...what are you doing here?"

"Looking for you. You are a hard woman to find. Took the PI I hired weeks to locate you."

I thought back and remembered the guy that was taking pictures. He was a PI? Hired by Boyd? Suddenly I was very nervous. How long had that guy been following me? Did he know where Sha and I lived? Had he seen Davis? That last question was the most worrisome.

"Why were you looking for me?"

He gave me a smile, the one that used to make my heart beat a little faster and he took a step closer.

Going Solo: Kerri 2.12

Davis was the apple of my eye, and Sha's as well. He was a sweet little boy and we really got into a routine with the parenting. Life was good, he was smart and picked up walking and talking rather quickly.

Going Solo: Kerri 2.11

Davis had both Sha and I wrapped around his little finger. He was adorable, and generally a very good baby. I would spend hours just watching him sleep. Sha and I split the late night feedings and diaper changes. The doctors said we wouldn't know until his birthday if he had inherited his father's vampire genes or not. It was a 50/50 chance he could be a vampire. I hoped he'd be human, but it if he was a vamp, I'd learn all I could so that I could make sure he grew up properly.

Mom and Dad came to visit. They were instantly in love with Davis and I barely got to hold him while they were here. Mom was even talking about retiring so she could move closer. I  noticed while she and Dad were here, that they seemed to be 'extra' close. I'd never had any illusions about their relationship growing up, but I had to admit it was nice to see my parents together.
