"Mommy? Can I go to Daddy house today?"

Emery asked, walking into the bedroom. My heart sunk. Seth and I were doing great at co-parenting but last month he stopped all communication. No texts. No calls. No wanting to see Em.

"I'm sorry sweetheart but no."

I said, picking her up.

"Why doesn't Daddy wanna see me?"

Emery asked.

"Aw baby. He does. He's just...busy."

I said, biting my lip.

"Bayley!"

I heard Finn call from downstairs.

"Here. Go play."

I said, putting her down. I walked downstairs and saw Finn holding a big stack of papers.

"What's that?"

I asked him.

"Someone just dropped off custody papers from Seth."

Finn said.

"What?!"

I said, snapping them out of her hands.

"He hasn't even tried to see her in weeks why is he trying to get full custody?"

I asked Finn.

"I don't know. He probably won't get it though."

Finn said.

"But what if he does?"

I said, searching through the papers.

"He won't. We'll get a good lawyer and we'll tell them everything he's done to you. There's no court that will give him custody."

Finn said.

"I hope not. I can't lose my baby."

I said, tears falling down my cheeks.

"Don't cry baby. We'll get through this."

Finn said, kissing the top of my head. I sighed, throwing the papers on the table. I didn't wanna put Em through this at all. If Seth gets her, god only knows what kind of life she'll have. Let's just pray he doesn't get her...
