Death waits outside your door

Alecks's P.O.V
I sat at Shaylas place with her and Cody. We were all chilling...the usual when there was a knock on the door. Shayla got up and looked in the peep hole.

"Its Stephen" she mouth. Ugh Stephen. I wanted to kill him. Just the thought of him made me grit my teeth. Cody shot up and I grabbed his arm. "Let's hide." "Who's that?" Bethany asked coming out of her room. "No one come on follow me and daddy and stay quiet" I told her and she nodded.

Me, Cody, and Bethany hid in Bethany's room and Shayla opened the door.

Cody's P.O.V

"Hello beautiful." I heard Stephen say. "Hey" Shayla responded quietly. I heard the door close and footsteps heading towards the living room. I came to the conclusion that they were probably sitting on the couch.

"Babe" he began and I clinched my fist. "I'm sorry...I just need you" Shayla didn't respond. "Why are you with Cody!?" He shot out in anger.

Shayla still didn't respond. "He can't give you what I can!" I felt Alecks place her hand on my shoulder. "Fuck you" I heard Shayla say. It got quiet then there was a loud pop.

He slapped her. He just slapped my fucking wife.

I got up and stormed out of Bethanys room. Alecks followed. Stephen had Shayla pinned to a wall with his hands around her throat. Though she was weak Shayla was fighting back, scratching and punching his face.

I ran up behind him and gripped his shirt pulling him off of her and throwing him to the ground.
"Don't touch my wife!' I yelled as I punched him once, then twice, then three times, and over and over again. I felt Alecks kicking his ribs. Both of us not holding back.

Eventually he went limp...knocked out. But I still couldn't stop punching him. "Okay Cody..." I heard Alecks say. "That's enough." I felt her pulling me off but i wouldn't stop. "Baby stop you're going to kill him!!" Shayla yelled. "Daddy!" I heard Bethany yell and my heart dropped.

My fist was raised about to punch again but I couldn't....not with my baby watching. I got off of him and spat in his face. "Babe...its okay its over now." Shayla said hugging me from behind.

"I'll put him in my car. Drive him far out and drop him off on the side of the road" Alecks said.
I nodded and helped her put him in the car.

Shaylas P.O.V
I stroked Cody's hair as he slept next to me. He looked peaceful...the first time today. I hated seeing him so upset. I kissed his forehead three times then rolled over on my side and closed my eyes. A couple seconds later I felt Cody begin to move. I felt his arms wrap around me and his nose bury itself in my back.

I smiled to myself. I know how much he loves me. Trust me its a lot.
