We are a week later and allot has happened, but the most important thing ... the arrest of Kayla was not one of them. She was like a ghost... Flo, Oscar and the dogs where in my trailer while i was working. 1 because i wanted them close after everything that happened ...2 because Flo was scared and didn't want to be away from me. 3 she didn't want to be alone in the house.
She was barely sleeping scared that someone would take Oscar. The first few nights we had place the crib in our bedroom until Flo felt comfortable enough to have him sleep in his own room again. We have gotten a new security system for the house, the best of the best with a direct link to the police department. I hired more security for Flo and Oscar and someone for myself even for when we were at the house. Security on set has been doubled. The dogs had stayed at the vet for 2 days as they were drugged with some sort of sleep medication, thank God they were okay.
The scary thing is we didn't know what the endgame is for Kayla. Detective Brooks had assured me that they would find her they even went as far as plastering her picture over every social media or normal media that was willing. And they were willing, downside to that was that ever since we were back home paparazzi was camped outside of the house. I had even debated sending Flo and Oscar back to Boston but when i suggested this she panicked she didn't want to go without me.
Robert and Susan had offered we could stay with them, and we did that for one night, but Flo wanted to go home. She was so conflicted by wanting to be home and not wanting to be home. I was worried and on top of that i still had deadlines to catch to keep the project on track, but it was going well and knowing that my wife and son where safe a few yards away from me kept me going. But i needed Kayla to be arrested and then we could sleep again.
In my opinion she was planning on much more than just taking Oscar seeing as she had a knife on her which she used when Flo grabbed Oscar from her. Without any regard for her own life, she went after Kayla to get Oscar away from her ending up with a gash over her stomach.
Ma had offered to come and stay with us but having one more person to worry about was not what i needed right now. In 2 months, we were going home and hopefully we could get some rest. I had arranged that editing and all that stuff would be done in Boston so we could just be home and Flo and Oscar could feel safe again but for that to happen Kayla should have been caught and every day that that was not happening i lost hope.
I looked at the trailer between takes and i saw Flo walking out with Oscar followed by 3 guys from security. I smiled as she waved with Oscars little arm and made her way towards the catering area. She had made friends with one of the ladies who was serving us food during filming and i was happy to see she had someone she could go to, to have some fun with not that she was ever lacking on attention. Robert and Susan came to visit or Scarlet or Seb and Anthony. Everybody had been shocked and worried and had been visiting. Flo had been worried that her being on set with Oscar and the dogs would be a distraction, but everybody loved having her around and understood why she was here, so nobody made a problem of it.
I called it quits for lunch and sat down with Flo and Oscar i smiled when Flo pushed a plate towards me. "Hey baby..." I said kissing her before i started eating. Oscar was giggling at everyone walking by making us both laugh. "He is a little charmer just like you..." Flo said smiling as she laid her head on my shoulder. "What have you been doing this morning?" I asked Flo kissing the top of her head. "Playing with Oscar... He is starting to show signs that he is going to crawl soon..." She said letting out a sigh. "Isn't that a good thing?" I asked because she seemed sad about it. "It is but he is growing up too fast..." She whispered. "Before you know it we are running after him because he bolts every chance, he got...." I chuckle. "Yeah, he is going to be a little troublemaker." I say smirking.
We eat our lunch and when i am done Flo is taking Oscar back to the trailer to take a nap together and i go back to filming.
We finish early and i walk in the trailer smiling at the sight of my wife and son sleeping cuddled up together in the bed. It looked so comfortable so i crawled in beside them wrapping them both in my arms and pulling them closer. "Sorry i was so tired..." I hear Flo whisper. "It is okay baby..." I say kissing the top of her head. "I am just so tired all the time..." She said again in a small voice. "That is normal baby after all the stress we had the last few weeks you being sick, followed by that woman... You didn't have time to work through it all and that takes time and energy..." I said reassuring her. "I guess so." She said yawning. We look down as Oscar starts to move in his sleep. "He was difficult to put down this afternoon... Do you think it is somehow about what happened? He is never difficult to put to sleep..." The worry in her voice broke my heart. "No baby he is just a baby it happens sometimes...." I murmured.
She sighed and cuddled into me more making sure that she wouldn't hurt Oscar. "This is nice..." She hums her eyes closed as she slowly falls back to sleep again. As i lay there with them in my arms i couldn't help but cry a little thinking about how close i came to losing them both, and even now with all the extra precautions i was worried.
