Cowgirls Don't Cry.

Kevin nodded, sitting up straighter.
"Now, tell me, what do you plan on doing daddy?"

"I don't know. You said be like I used to, not knowing where I was going so I'm doin just that." He nodded.

"Kay...You going to be momma's superman again?" He asked softly, hugging his father tightly.

Alex nodded.
"I sure am..."

"Meaning im not going to have to listen to him crying himself to sleep every night anymore?" He asked hopefully. In the dead of night, he would awake to the sound of his mothers small sobs and whimpers of his exhusbands name.

Alex looked confused but nodded.
"Yes...?"

Kevin blinked at him.
'What?"

"I... he does that?" He whimpered lightly.

Kevin raised a brow at him, hugging him tighter.
"You dont hear him?....."
Now he felt bad....He heard...he did nothing....He let his mother cry himself to sleep every night.....
And Mike did, he was turning back to the old Mike, the one who had nothing to live for if he didnt have Alex. Alex was distant with him. They were divorced...he acted like Mike meant nothing sometimes...And Mike...
The old Mike would have committed suicide and ended it.
Mike now has done that several times, it never works...so he cries, he cried about not being Mike Riley....He cries because his lover doesnt love him anymore....
Yes, Mike was that same, insecure, lover who always thought the worst things were happening, always feared them.

"N-no..." Alex shook his head hugging Kevin close.

Kevin shook his head, hugging his father tightly, pressing his lips his fathers neck.
"Daddy....When he gets back, wait one night and come to my room and just wait. You'll hear him....I hear alot, he cries and talks to himself."

Alex frownded deeply.
"Oh... I'm awful." He sughed.

"No your not....But if you hear him and listen...You will know this divorce thing, everything going on with you and him...It bothers him as much, if not more than you."

"He's the one who wanted it though..." He frowned.

"Daddy....Yes, he got it filed, but he didnt want it. He didnt know what to do with you being pregnant with his best friends babies....What was he supposed to do? He was trying to make you realize in his way you were losing him...but we are not dumb, you wont ever lose momma...its more like...You hurt him so bad he needed some way to express it...I know momma cheated on you two. He lost his son, im done with him, and he is officially a whore to a lot of people...and to you...your both not doing to well but." He shrugged.

"He's not a whore..." He sighed. "He's my Mikey..."

Kevin nodded, small smile on his face.
"Yes daddy.....He is your Mikey."

Alex nodded firmly like a stubborn child who'd been told he was right.
"So... you ever going to forgive him?"

"Maybe....He is my momma and I love him but...He cheated on you and...with MY husband...Daddy Rick had already been with Biddy not long ago, Sydney, he liked you when he was younger....He cant just be happy with me, he is fucking the whole family and momma helped!"

"but baby hes your momma... he loves you..." Alex frowned. "I know he's sorry.."

"Yeah im sure he is but sorry does not take it back daddy...superman...." He smiled at his father

Alex sighed and hugged him close.
"Sleep with me tonight?"

"Course....." He nodded and snuggled his father's chest. "I always like sleeping with my daddy..." His superman...He felt so safe at night with his father...

Alex hugged him close, kissing his cheek sweetly.
"My precious baby..."

Kevin cooed softly at his father, his hands holding Alex's face.
"Daddy....Dont you ever once doubt your my superman...Even when we fight your my hero...I count on you for help more than I do anyone else...even Rick...I feel safe with my daddy, my superman....No matter what."
