Chapter 225: I should have seen it

River POV

I see the tears falling from his face, I pull him in to a hug "It's okay Kraizen we'll talk about everything with Lucky and he will help you. That's what these guys do." I say hugging him, he is shaking a little "River this last month with you, Fallon and Crash all hanging out at the gym has been the most real fun I've had. The last few weeks Lucky's helped me learn how to manage my money and I can leave this life and start a new one that's all mine. Thank you for being my friend and I'll try not to flirt with you as often." He says laughing.

I laugh as I stand then I say with the straightest face I can "And I'll try to keep my three year old daughter from beating you up again" I laugh as I hurry out the door. He chases me out the door "She didn't beat me up!" He yells and I hear Lucky bust up laughing from the kitchen.

Kraizen catches me around my waist and throws me on the couch. I lay there laughing hysterically as he walks away. "I guess I'll never live that down" he says laughing as he turn and flips me off. I laugh even harder now.

"Eat and change kids we run in ten!" Lucky yells.

I hear Crash, Mia and Kraizen all moan.

"I get my whistle!" Annie yells running down the hall. I look at Lucky.

He laughs "In hiding I couldn't leave her so I got one of those backpack things that I can carry her in and gave her a toy whistle that won't make me go deaf or crazy and told her she's my trainer. She does a good job, she's got that natural bossy attitude like her mommy." He says laughing. I smack him, he grabs my hand and pulls me to him kissing me.

"I'm going to stay and be with Pickle." I tell him. He nods and kisses my head. "Monday though training is back on." I nod. I'll need it to keep my mind busy and Wednesday I start my new job with Lincoln.

"Today is Sunday mommy" Annie says to me.

"Yes today is Sunday my love." She gets sad.

"What's wrong bunny?" I ask her picking her up.

"Sunday is family day and I go see my new grandma and grandpa." She says hugging me.

"Baby we are still going to their house but that's later today. You can still go with daddy running."

"Yayy!" She yells. She whistles her whistle that sounds like on of the pinwheels when you blow on it. I laugh at how cute she is with her hands on her hips, legs slightly spread like how Lucky stands when he's training us.

"Let's go." She yells. Lucky comes over and grabs her arms flipping her up to his shoulders. I watch as she gets her legs in the carrier and buckles her self in "Cup please." She says. Lucky laughs and hands her, her little tumble cup and a note pad and crayon.

Lucky kisses me tenderly holding my lips for a minute as Annie giggles.

"I'm going to start teaching self defense to little kids." He says with a smile on his face.

"She gave me the idea." He says nodding his head up.

"I think it's a great idea." I say smiling at him.

"Have fun bunny. Don't let them slack off." I say blowing her a kiss.

"Slackers have to drop and give me ten. Huh big daddy?" She says all serious.

I look at Pickle and he has the brightest smile lighting up his face.

"I guess it's safe to assume she goes in the gym far more then we realize." Pickle says laughing as he wraps his arms around my waist from behind as I wave to them.

I turn and wrap my arms around his waist.

"Pickle I love you so much and I'm sorry I didn't see it. I'm so sorry my love,  I should have see it."

He squeezes me tighter "Oh Kitten please don't blame your self. I love you too and I'll be back and I'll be stronger." I lean up and kiss him.

"Let's go get everything packed and ready first then I'm going to help you shower."

"Sweetheart you know I can ask shower myself." He says with a laugh.

"Well first I'm going to clean you from head to toe" I lean up so I'm closer to his ear "Then I'm going to suck that massive dick of yours making you cum at least twice but if you think you can do it your self then..." I don't get to finish before he has my hand and is almost dragging me down the hall to the bathroom as I'm laughing.

"Okay Honey I think we have all you need." I say kissing him again. He's sitting on our bed and he really hasn't talked much for about a hour. It's crazy how fast he slipped away, this morning he seemed like his self again but now he's so different. Lucky was right when he said it happens so fast sometimes. I'm worried about him but I know he will be in good hands and they have a great physical therapist so he can still physically recover as well.

Chailor and Lincoln will be driving with Annie,Mia and Crash, then me, Pickle, Lucky and Kraizen will drop off Pickle and talk on our drive out to the Spencer's.

I give Annie a kiss and tell her to be good for her aunt and uncle. I wave as they leave. I climb in back with Pickle. I pick up his hand as I scoot over to the middle to be closer to him.

He smiles at me and squeezes my hand as he finishes his call with Ryder and Flame.

I put my head on his unhurt shoulder and just listen to him breathing. I must have fallen asleep, he wakes me with a kiss to my head.

"Are we here?" I say sadly, he nods his head.

We all get out and just stand there looking at the building.

"I love you Honey. When you can please call me."

"I love you to Kitten. I will call you I promise." He kisses me. I wrap my arms around his neck "Don't worry about me, I'll miss you but I know it's only for a short time. Please go in my love. I'll be waiting for you when your ready." I kiss him long and firm then I pulled away walking to get in the car. I watched him whisper something in Kraizen's ear and bro hug him. Kraizen jumps in the back and smiles at me, he looks nervous, probably worried about what ever he needs to talk to us about.

I look back out the window watching Lucky and Pickle hug goodbye. I wipe a tear as it falls down my face. Lucky stops before getting in the car and waves again to him as he walks in the treatment center with the nurses.
