Vanilla : Chapter 94

"Your so beautiful."

"in this thin, raggedy hospital dress?"

"you would look beautiful in a burlap sack, don't get me started."

She giggled out as he leaned down and placed a small kiss to her nose. It was quiet, not an awkward quiet but a peaceful quiet and nobody minded. But of course that had to be broken by the ringing of two cellphones, they both broke out in tone at the same time causing them to both get up frantically

"what? what is happening, where are you going?"

"i got to go, this is important. I'll be back later on to check on you."

"but i-"

He cut her off with a kiss and rushed out of the room, sierra was in hot pursuit until she was stopped by sunny

"STOOPPP! Sierra.....you leave early every damn day, and now Aubrey? what the hell is going on..i want the truth and i want it now, god damn it."

She looked pissed, sierra wasn't a good liar. She never had been because she was always honest, lying to her best friend was bad. But lying to her angry best friend was worse, she just couldn't take it anymore. It all came out fast and a bit mumbled

"Aubrey is in a custody war with Tina and George because there abusing the kids and hes trying to save them. He didn't tell you because he didn't want you to worry while your supposed to be resting up and getting better."

Sunny blinked back a few times, her words spilled out like a can of beans and it was a lot to take in so her initial response was

"wait...what?"

"Hes trying to adopt the kids, sunny. I have to go help."

With that said she stormed from the room in hopes of catching up with Aubrey. You could hear yelling from outside the office building and the closer you got to the room the two realized it was Kristen yelling back. The city courthouse was a nice building and it was a nice building that the two were supposed to be at thirty minutes ago so it was bad enough they hadn't shown up earlier but what made ends worse was the fact that they walked into Kristen - and who Aubrey guessed was George and Tina's lawyer. The judge sit with two fingers on each side of his head where his temples were located

"THAT'S ENOUGH! SETTLE DOWN!"

He balled a fist and banged on the desk as it were a gavel and he was ordering quietness in the court.

"what do you want?"

He gestured towards Sierra and Aubrey who stand awkwardly at the door

"Were late, sorry your honor."

"please sit, which is what you two will be doing as well."

He gave a glare over at Kristen and the other lawyer as they sat down slowly in there chairs, Kristen sat up straight and decided to be the first one to speak up

"Your honor, im sorry for getting out of hand i just think its a bit ridiculous to allow him the obligation to plead guilty. He is anything but guilty in this situation."

The other lawyer leaned over his seat and put a hand out and gestured over towards Aubrey who sit with a look of disgust on his face. He felt kind of bad for this lawyer, he had a tough case to put up and there was no way he was gonna win this

"but its okay for a kidnapper to plead guilty? who not only took the children from there legal home but he also used domestic violence without reason."

"Oh bullshit, he had a reason and we all-"

"QUIET!!"

The arguing was stopped right before it could happen up again.

"I don't care what goes on outside of this office but if i hear another voice being raised, another word being sworn, i will cut this court case and the two of them will go to prison."

The room cut to a silence, the last thing that was needed was the kids going back into the foster system and Aubrey going to jail.

"There is not a doubt in my mind that these two sick bastards need to be imprisoned, but its not up to me and you know that. Its up to the jury, so shut up with the arguing and work on a good case....im done here, i will see you all tomorrow morning for day one of court. Your dismissed."

Aubrey felt a bit of relief that the judge was on his side but like he said himself, it wasn't up to him it was up to the jury. But he believed in his mind that he would win this because what person would want to see kids be placed back into an abusive home. Just hearing the words there being abused should be enough, but the fact that there is so much evidence to add on. He didn't see how the jury could resist.

"I talked to the police, they got a subpoena on the house and my god it was like Christmas. They found so much good stuff, the weapons, the video tapes. They even found the pot she used to beat Izzy, they said the skin was burnt to it so she must have picked it up from the stove as something was cooking."

The court building was quiet, other then the sound of low voices and shoes. By now the press all knew about it and it was headlining everywhere "Rapper Aubrey Graham in custody war over three kids". He was surprised sunny didn't know about it because it was honestly all the news talked about, they walked out and the paparazzi went crazy which he should have known they would but it took him off guard a bit. The police men that decided to escort them pushed there way through until they got to the car.

The house was weird, different. It felt like a fresh breath of air when you walked in for some reason which was weird. He turned to close the door and heard a clapping which scared him a bit but he turned around and his heart rate sped up a bit

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

"i guess you really truly are an actor Aubrey, that was a great show."

She clapped once again and smiled big as she stopped

"what are you talking about?"

"you and that whole i have important business to take care of. You say that as if i wasn't going to find out......why didn't you tell me?"

He looked down

"im sorry, i just didn't wa-"

"why are you sorry?"

He looked up to see her smiling so innocently it was enough to make his heart stop, she was to cute for the eyes just like the kids.

"I thought you would be upset at me because i went out to adopt them the same day i told you my feelings about mason..."

"Aubrey..i said myself that i wanted these kids...Now don't just stand there, come give me a kiss and mini celebrate because i know for a fact that were gonna win this case tomorrow."

And he did just that.
