Chapter thirty three: Barbie saw red

"Hey you've gotta wake up" Evan instructed as he swayed my body side to side. Grumbly I wiped my eyes to see his mop of brown hair tickling my face which made me giggle.

"Jesus Evan, ever heard of personal space?" I joked. "Anyway what's the time?"

Evan rolled his eyes playfully "I can get as close as I like and the time is seven in the morning. Barbie will be awake soon"

Clasping a hand over my mouth to suppress my laugh I pondered why he would also refer his girlfriend to Barbie. "Sure I'm awake" I stated as I sat up and stretched my arms.

"You've always looked adorable when you're sleepy" he whispered in my ear which made a swarm of butterflies dance in my stomach. Swatting at his arm I peeled out of the guest bed and went to go see if Ember was awake.

"Ember is eating pancakes and we have had a lovely morning together" he gushed with a wide grin "you did well with raising her even if she has got your attitude.."

I crossed my arms "what's so wrong with my attitude?" This earned a raised brow from Evan as if to say I was being stupid.

"Do you.. really want me to answer that?" He mused with a toothy grin "because I don't think you'll like my answer"

"Evan I've just woke up. Enough with the teasing" I said dryly with a forced stern face as I was actually finding the whole ordeal rather funny and I haven't laughed much in awhile.

"I can tease in other ways if you like" he said deviously as he wiggled his eyebrows which made me blush profusely. "Evan Peters! Do you forget you have a girlfriend ? Jesus"

Evan shrugged "you're right I'm an asshole"

I didn't argue with that as I fully agreed so I pulled on my jeans and hurried out the bedroom with Evan watching me with every move. Seriously what is he playing at?

"Morning sweetheart" I gushed as I saw Ember with poorly done hair and a pancake lodged in her cheeks.

"Evan what did you do to our child's hair?" I asked with furrowed brows "least we know hair isn't your specialty"

Evan jokingly placed a hand to his chest "really? I thought her hair looked great"

Ember nodded "daddy did great" in which I felt like I was being ganged up on so simply raised my hands in the air. These two will be the death of me.

"What have we got here"

Looking upwards I saw Emma standing on the stairs with her arms crossed, if looks could kill then I would be dead. She looked absolutely furious which is understandable.

"Oh morning, It was late and I didn't want them travelling home so I offered them to sleep here last night" Evan said with no emotion as if it didn't matter.

Emma scoffed "really Evan? You didn't think of.. I don't know telling me?"

Evan rolled his eyes "I'm not in the mood to argue with you today"

When did Evan become such an asshole towards his girlfriends ? He never treated me like that.

"You know what Evan I'm meant to be your priority! Not some random woman and a kid you don't even know. What the fuck is going on with you? I tried so hard to hold my tongue and be the perfect girlfriend for you last night" she spat as she came face to face with him.

I frowned "do not do this in-front of my daughter Emma, I'm warning you"

"Then fucking leave! It's my house-

Evan chuckled "no Emma. It's my house"

Emma hit Evan's chest angrily which raised the hairs on my body. "Evan what do you want from me? Are you seriously going to ruin our relationship for two.. nobody's. Look at our life" she said in awe as she pointed around.

Evan took ahold of her wrist with a bleak expression "Emma you know I carried Adult world so don't spurt that crap on me. I'm not expecting anything from you other than not being a crazy bitch"

Emma widened her eyes in shock as she raised her hand to slap him but before she could I grabbed ahold of her and pushed her into a wall "I told you. Do not do that shit in-front of my daughter. Let alone hitting Evan"

Evan sighed and ran a hand through his hair "go on Emma. Tell her why I don't even have the slightest reaction to you hitting me anymore"

Emma flushed red from embarrassment "don't listen to him he is delusional- and get the hell off me you cunt"

Evan pursed his lips together as if knowing what was to come; I was not the one to be disrespected since having it all my life in high school. I finally had a backbone and I wasn't afraid of the outcome.

"What did you just call me you Barbie looking bitch?" I hissed with venom lacing my words. "You did not just call me a cunt did you?"

Ember all this time was sat still eating her pancakes and watching everything unfold; secretly I believed she was enjoying this all.

Emma seemed slightly scared as she turned her head away from me "look, take Evan I really couldn't give two fucks anymore. You two probably slept together last night anyway and I know I'm worth more than that"

Evan stepped over to us and released my grip on Emma as if to say 'that's enough'. "Listen Emma, you do hold a place in my heart but you hitting me the last few weeks has gotten excessive and I'm not putting up with that. So sure my feelings aren't as strong as they were"

I saw tears brew up in Emma's eyes as she clasped her face "I'm so so sorry baby, please forgive me"

Evan looked pitiful and almost guilty as he wrapped an arm around her petite body and cradled her in his chest. "You need to stop this shit. You've got to come to the realisation that I have another family now. Can you accept this and stop being abusive?"

She nodded as tears dampened his shirt. Anger was now bubbling inside of me, everything he said last night was so disrespectful of him towards Emma and now he is acting like none of that matters. Plus she hits him regularly by the sounds of things and he is tolerating that?

"Look, I'm not being funny Evan but she hits you. She isn't right for you" I cut in with daggers going through both of their backs. "You're a good guy and need to cut this bullshit off with her"

Evan sighed and turned to look at me "M-Maeve I do love her and I'm sorry"

Laughing in disbelief I shook my head "sure you keep telling yourself that. I'm taking Ember and we are going back home"

I turned away towards Ember who's eyes were now glassy with tears "mommy why are we leaving?"

I kissed her forehead and put on a fake smile "because I'm homesick. You'll see daddy in a few weeks I promise"

Ember nodded but I could sense how heartbroken she was which only added to my anger.

I then strolled over to Emma and raised my hand up and slapped her hard across the face which left her clutching her cheek in pain. "You dare touch Evan again and it'll be the last thing you do. Do you hear me?"

Emma nodded weakly and backed herself into the wall "I-I won't do it again"

"And Evan, you're a piece of shit. Telling me you have always loved me and still do. How you were making sexual jokes and being flirtatious. Whatever- you two are made for one another" I spat with disdain which left Emma in utter shock.

"Evan.. is this true?" She asked just above a whisper which made Evan clench his jaw. Though he never responded which confirmed it. Instead of any normal person running away from their partner after hearing that shit she instead laced her fingers with his and planted a kiss on his cheek.

"I'll text you when Ember wants to see you" I said dryly with Ember by my side we left the house and called ourselves a cab.
