They took a nap together whilst they were watching a movie, she fell asleep first then he fell asleep. He woke up and looked around he was at her house , he felt something against his chest , he looked down and saw her , they were literally cuddling.
She was leaning against his chest as she slept , he couldn't lie he loved the felling of it. He heard some footsteps outside and then some cameras flashing, he took a peak and saw reporters by her door.
"Maria." He said shaking her softly , she hummed and remained in her slumber, he smiled and shook her again then she woke up.
"Hmm." She said slowly opening her eyes , she saw the position she was in her heart beating too fast but her face playing it cool.
"How long was I out for?" She asked stretching her body, she stood up.
"For some time, but your house is covered with reporters." He said remaining on the sofa she nodded and looked outside people were taking pictures of her and calling her name.
"Oh God , how are we going to get the pizza then." She said rubbing her forehead , James chuckled.
"There are reporters swarming your driveway and all you're worried about is the pizza delivery." He said looking at her.
"I'm preganat and hungry." She said with a shrug , he smiled. He took out his phone and tracked the delivery man.
"Looks like he is stuck with the reporters traffic." James said looking at her , she nodded , she really craving the pizza as she thought of the flavors.
"We have to get that pizza."She said looking at him.
"How , I can't expose myself I have enough attention on me." He said getting a fleece and covering his body.
"I have an idea , I'll be back." She said , she got to her room and took one of her wigs and sunglasses. She got down slowly and saw him texting on his phone.
"Just wear this and go get the pizza I'll distract them." She said handing him the wig.
"I'm not wearing that." He said looking at the wig , she crossed her arms and looked at him.
"Fine I'll just open the door work through aggressive reporters pregnant with not just my children, your children too and keep in mind that they are hungry too , so you're going to put on this wig and sunglasses and a hoodie and get us ome pizza." She said whisper shouted at him , he looked at her in silence on normal day he wouldn't let anyone order him around , but he knew not to oppose a preganat woman. He took the wig and wore the sunglasses , he crawled to the back door. Her hand on the knob of her front door she nodded ,he opened the back door and got out and she opened the front door.
"Miss Sanders , why did you cancel your charges?" A reporter asked.
"Where you paid to cancel the charges?"
"Is your family still friends with Deri family?"
"Why did you press charges if you were going to remove them."
"Why did you breakup did you know he was violent?" They all said forcing their microphones to her, she was having a panic attack , she looked behind her and James got in with the pizza.
"I'd really appreciate it if you left me alone, I'd like to be alone." She said then slammed the door and locked it. Some people left and some remained still wanting to hear her story.
"Are you okay?" He asked removing his wig , she wiped a tear and looked at him and nodded.
"Yeah , did anyone notice you?" She asked as they went to her room, he was holding the bottles and she had the drinks.
"Nope , I just paid and walked away I did notice your cousin she was shouting at one of the reporters." He said sitting down.
"Rosalia?" She asked he nodded , she took out her phone and called her.
"Hey Rosalia I heard you're here." She said as Rosalia answered , people were talking too loud.
"Yeah I brought some groceries and your work stuff and your little prince." Rosalia said as she parked her car where she found space.
"Okay I'll meet you by the door just knock four times." Maria said.
"Okay." Rosalia said then hung up.
"Thank you for getting the pizza I know it ruined your ego as a man." She said taking a bite.
"Its okay, they are our kids and I have to do the unexpected." He said with a smile, she nodded and smiled. Her phone beeped , Rosalia was by the door, she took a peak through the hole and opened the door , she had her stroller.
"Hey." Rosalia said hugging her, she hugged her back and locked the door.
"James is here too." She said packing the groceries, Rosalia coughed and looked at her, with a questioning look.
"Don't jump to fantasy conclusion Rosalia." Maria said pointing a finger at her,she lifted her hands up to surrender.
"I never said anything darling." Rosalia replied with a smile. James walked down the stairs holding the pizza boxes. Rosalia made a fake cough again and looked at Maria.
"Hello Rosalia." He greeted shaking her hand , she greeted him back with a smile.
"Where is Andre?" Maria asked looking at her.
"I lied he is staying with his granny for the weekend and he hasn't cried one bit." Rosalia said with a smile.
"I'm sure she is already buying him baby cars." Maria said with a smirk , Rosalia laughed.
"She got him a motorbike , he can barely crawl." Rosalia said with a smile , she missed her baby boy.
"I guess I'll be going." James said looking at the two.
"No." They both said together , they looked at each other and laughed.
"I saw some reporters , they are having donuts near your car your little anonymous might become known." Rosalia lied , he nodded , he didn't want to invade on their girl time that's why he thought it was best to leave.
"Pizza." He said lifting the boxes they nodded , and sat by the sofa and began talking whilst eating, the girls would laugh as they recalled on fun memories they had together.
"Its getting late , I better head home." He said standing up they nodded and stood up. The reporters were all gone, she stepped out following him , Rosalia stayed behind and watched from the window.
"Thank you so much for helping me." She said from the bottom of her heart, he got into his car and closed the door.
"For the thousand time Maria you're welcome and I'm always here for you." He said looking into her eyes. She nodded and smiled , he liked the way she couldn't keep eye contact.
"Well if you ever need anyone to beat up your crazy exes just call me." He said with a smile , she laughed lightly.
"He's the only one so I'm good." She replied with a smile , he nodded and turned on his engine.
"Well I'm not leaving until I know you're back behind that door safe." He said looking at her.
"Okay dad, goodbye." She said with a waive and walked back and locked the door he drove off looking at his rear view mirror.
"Sure he's just a donor." Rosalia said as Maria sat by the sofa, Maria rolled her eyes.
"Yeah he is and it was just being generous." She replied as they laid on the sofa, Rosalia looked at her.
"I know you're not okay Maria women are left traumatized with just any close experience to rape and worse when your at the receiving end of Domestic violence." Rosalia said hugging her a tear slid down her cheek.
"Don't tell yourself you need to be strong, so tonight we are going to cry until our tears run out, you're going to express your emotion and let it all out. If you consume that hurt and keep it inside it will eat you up." Rosalia said looking at her, Maria began crying , memories of how he beat her every night flooding her mind , she was angry and hurt. Rosalia rubbed her back and softly told her to let it out.
"Let's go to your garage." Rosalia said taking her hand , they got there and put plastic on the floor.
"So I bought stuff on my way here they are cheap , so we are going to break them take out all the anger." Rosalia said handing her a dust coat , she wore it and took a glass and threw against the floor.
"Good now let's try something heavier." Rosalia said , she nodded and they spent two hours breaking stuff she enjoyed she felt a bit better. Both worn out theu took a shower and made cupcakes she felt relaxed and at ease.
"You know what Rosa." She said as they mixed ingredients, Rosalia hummed as sh mixed hers.
"I know I can't forget what happened , but I'm willing to move on." She said looking at her.
"That's the spirit." Rosalia said with a smile , they took a picture of their cupcakes and ate them with some tea whilst watching a crime drama.
"Goodnight." They both said shutting the laptop , they all slept snoring loudly their bodies were really tired from smashing everything.
