Lexis pov

I walk out of the courtroom and see my moms

Toni hugs me right away and kisses the side of my head

"You did amazing babygirl,"

"Thanks Mama,"

Toni takes Mateo and KC home and I volunteer to pick dinner up with Cheryl.

"You made your mom cry today, Yknow that?"

"Why?"

"She's always been a little.. insecure about being a mom. Seeing you so grown up, and advocate for her- it was special for her,"

"I love you mom,"

"I love you too Lexi,"

We pick the food up and I see a man that's vaguely familiar

I feel..

Weird

It's..

Cheryls POV

Lexi starts seizing as we were walking out with the food.

"Oh my god," I scream trying to stabilize her

"Mrs. Topaz?" Hudson asks kneeling down "it's so nice to see you again,"

That's weirder than the seizure

"Hudson.."

"She's okay," he whispers "Yknow someone's following you?"

I look at him confused and Alex stops seizing and starts coughing.

"Lex, it's me- you're okay," I say as she opens your eyes

"Mom he's back," she says "he's back he's over there,"

Hudson stands up and looks around the corner

"Hudson, don't it's okay,"

"No it isn't,"

He takes a step towards the man before the man walks towards us.

"Who are you?" The man asks

"None of your business, but if you don't leave them alone- I'll make you,"

"What are you? 15- get a life kid,"

Hudson shoves him literally to the ground

"Leave them alone,"

"I'm not doing anything son,"

They have a stare down and he tries to walk towards me and Lexi- whos still trying to wake up

Hudson grabs his arm

"Leave," he demands "now?"

"I can help the girl on the ground,"

"No, she's fine. I've seen you following her and her family," he says "you should leave,"

The guy turns around and leaves

"He's been following Lex," Hudson says "everyday I see him after school and when we go to pick up KC,"

"I know, he was following me the day of the accident," I say "thank you for doing that, but don't let him hurt you,"

"I won't,"

"Mom.." Lexi groans

"Everything hurts,"

"Oh baby, I know," I say helping her sit up "just stress,"

"I hate this mom,"

"I know. Hudson's here,"
