Tough Little Boys Alternate Kevin/Rick

"Leave me alone!" Angel squalled at him, breaking several more things trying to get away from the large man.

"Shut up!" He hissed. "You're going to scare the fucking kid!"

Angel just whimpered, crawling away and hiding somewhere in the shadows of the home, tears falling fast and he held his stomach, he had torn it open again. He was getting ready to run, just sneak away long enough to have Mike fix it,

Gabriel simply glared after him, calming the now bawlign newborn.

Angel took his time and slipped frown the home, hidden by the shadows of the setting sun.
He was gone for way longer than he originally thought....
Two days longer in fact.

Gabriel had refused to cry once again but he was hurt. He was terrified deep inside... and he hated it. He hated that the boy had found his way inside Gabriel's heart...
There was once again that gnawing fear that Angel had ran away from him...

Angel was lost several times to and from Mike's but he had gotten all stitched up and he was okay so now he was trying to get back into the house without Gabriel noticing.

But Gabriel already knew. And it was killing him. He was currently on the couch rocking Cade in his arms, blank look on his face.

Angel padded into the living room slowly, trying to keep himself unnoticed as he looked over at his baby, smiling softly at the small child.

Gabriel looked up at him.
"Where have you been?" He asked.

Angel tentatively sat down beside him on the couch and smiled at his baby. "I went to go get fixed so I didnt bleed to death babe."

"And you couldn't have told me you were going?" He asked, voice ominously low.

"You were yelling and hitting me, I wasn't going to come back into your reach if I could help it Gabriel. Im not that stupid." He frowned.

"So you just leave for three days straight, leaving me worried sick to find your ass?"

"Like you gave a damn." Angel shook his head. "I went so I wouldnt die again. Im not sitting here for you to kill me."

"I did give a fucking damn or else I wouldn't be here wasting my breath yelling at you for it." He snaped.

Angel flinched, gently taking the baby and holding it tight, kissing its nose.
"I missed you Cade."

The baby giggled and wraped his tiny hand around one of Angel's fingers.

Angel grinned back, leaning up and kissing Gabriel's temple.
"I missed you too Daddy Gabriel."
He curled up with Cade, cooing to him softly.

Gabriel grunted and stalked off, letting Angel have time with Cade.
Cade grinned happily, twirling Angel's hair and poking everywhere he could reach.

Angel grinned down, kissing his baby's face.
"I love you so much Cade...I hate you gotta see this.."

"Bwahhhhhhhhhh!" The baby flailed his arms. He never knew what was going on...

"I know, Imma have to do something so you wont see it anymore..."
His child didnt need to see that.

"Bawgawa?" The child's head was tilted although he had no clue what Angel had said.

Angel giggled at him, pecking his forehead.
"Yes baby, Bawhawa."
