The night went great.
We ate before going to a cute park where they had cute christmas lights up, allowing us to take some cute pictures, Tate making us take over ten to get the "perfect" one.
We soon sat in some grass, staring towards a small creek, talking about everything.
"Yeah i graduate in three years, but im sure i could get an internship position or maybe even an assistant position for a surgeon if i applied." She spoke, out into the open.
I knew she was in college to be an RN, but i didnt think she wanted to take on a job, nursing school was hard enough- i personally didnt want her working through that as well.
"Dont you think you should just focus on school-" "i told you when i moved in with you, that this wasnt forever- i dont want my child and i to live off of your money, we arent bums." She mumbled
"Stop looking at it that way." I told her firmly.
"I care for both of you and i want to take care of you, if you will let me. Just focus on school and taking care of Lily while I'm at work- i make plenty of money so its no problem." I told her slowly.
"I cant put that on you, Luke." She spoke quietly.
"Tate" i spoke, touching her chin to make her look to me
"Please, let me take care of you."
"Trust me to take care of you." I finished.
"Focus on school, get your degree and get into clinicals, school starts in a month for Lily, so that will be a lot too, lets just take it day by day, but lets not get you stuck in a job that you are either going to hate or that is going to get way too overwhelming with school." I told her calmly.
She leaned her head on me.
"But if youre still feeling this way after Lily starts school- i am a doctor, a pretty good one i like to think. So im sure i could help you out with a little part time job or something." I told her calmly.
"Okay" she exhaled softly, looking back to the water.
"Hey tate" i mumbled after a few minutes
"Hm?" She bummed towards me
Why was i asking this so soon?
She was probably going to think i was insane
"I just- have a question" i exhaled, seeing her look to me
"What, baby?" She spoke calmly.
"Will you be m-" i was cut off by her phone ringing, seeing a number that wasnt saved
"Im sorry- ignore that" she spoke quietly
"Will you be-" it rang again
She groaned, answering it quickly
"Claire?" I heard her say.
"What?" She sat straight up, panic in her voice
"Claire, call 911" i heard her say
I stood, knowing something was wrong and we were about to go
"Clarie you wont get in trouble, it was self defense- call 911 first, Luke and I are coming."
"Where am i going?" I asked as i got in the drivers seat, looking over to a panicked Tate
"My old house- Clarie thinks she killed him."
Therefore, i sped.
Tate was surprisingly calm, but also a mess.
"Luke, please dont leave me." I heard her voice crack as we pulled into the driveway
"Never baby, never."
