The relief I feel that they’re not taking Theo away from me is inconceivable. Just as Abigail is
about to go into her office, her pager beeps and she says, “It would seem your mother isawake.”We head upstairs and I leave Theo with Axle in the waiting room. I don’t want him to see her like this. I go to reception and tell them what Abigail said and one of the nurses escorts me to my mothers room.
When I walk in I see her looking very pale and there’s a sheen of sweat on her face.
“Hi mom.”
“What are you doing here?” She asks, blatant annoyance colouring her tone.
My heart clenches. “Do you not want me here?”
“I don’t want you to see me like this," she says, looking away from me.
My eyes sting as tears threaten to spill out. “Like what, Mom? This is no worse than seeing you

*Six's POV*When we get there, Jameson greets us at the door and fist bumps Theo. He likes Jameson a lotwhich is good considering it’s very probable that they’ll be spending a lot of time together in the future.As we head further into the house, I realize how nervous I’m getting. By the time we reach thekitchen, I feel like I’m noticeably shaking. Axle, however, does not seem to notice anything aswe reach his parents.“Mom, Dad, this is Six and Theo. Six, these are my parents. My mom, Irene who you’ve already met and my Dad, Jack.”“It’s nice to see you again,” Irene says and then Jack says, “It’s nice to finally meet you.”I see where Axle inherited his looks from. I would never guess that he’s got a 19 year old son. I shake both of their hands and Jack says, “Have we met before?” while tilting his head to theside.&ldquo
Six Like the Number New Record
*Axle's POV*When I get back from grabbing my beer, I’m a little surprised when she wraps her arms aroundme. Don’t get me wrong, neither of us are opposed to PDA at school and elsewhere but I kind of expected her to be more stand off-ish around my parents. She did look pretty pale earlier and she turned down a beer. But she said she was fine. I make a mental note to ask her about it later.I see Theo swimming up beside her and she pulls away and looks at him as he places a handon her side and says, “You’re it!”“What?!” She says dramatically. “Not for long!” She says and ducks lower into the water, swimming behind him at a deliberately slow pace. When she gets close to where Jameson is, she shoots her hand out to hit him in the arm and says, “You’re it!” and dashes sideways before he can react. “Hey! Rude!”He darts after her but she’s fast. She heads my

*Six's POV*The second I get home, I tell Theo to go play in his room and run to my laptop. I log into mycamgirl account and see a message.JackDaddy21: You free tonight?It was sent shortly after I left their house. Does he know? Should I message him and ask? Should I just block his username from my content? Yes, that’s exactly what I need to do. Ipromptly block his account from my profile.My heart is hammering in my chest and I’m just praying to any God that’ll listen that he doesn’t know who I am. What would he even do if he did? I mean he can’t say anything right? That would completely destroy his marriage. I need to calm the fuck down and just pretend this never happened. Yes. That’s what I‘m gonna do.I calm myself down and then go get Theo ready for bed and prepare our lunches. I can’t bringmyself to go on cam because I feel like I might shit a literal brick so I call it a ni

*Six's POV*“Just forget about what?” Axel's voice pierces through me and I look at Jack, begging him not to say anything. “Dad? What are you doing here?”“I came because of Six," he says as though it's the most obvious thing in the world.Confusion takes over Axle’s face as I say, “Jack, don’t do this!”“Long before you were in the picture she was mine!” He growls out.“That’s not true! I was never yours!” I yell but he keeps going, “I paid her to get naked and touch herself for me on camera. And she willingly obliged. She’s been mine for so long I can’t even think about anyone else. I didn’t know who she was until you brought her over, but now, I have to have her. Your mother never satisfied me the way she does and I had never even seen her in person before Sunday!”“Six, is this true?”I can’t bring my
Six Like the Number Start Talking
*Axle's POV*“Just forget about what?” I say when I find Six outside talking to someone. Not just anyone, Irealize. “Dad? What are you doing here?”“I came because of Six.” What the fuck does that mean?“Jack, don’t do this!”“Long before you were in the picture she was mine!” He growls out. What the hell?“That’s not true! I was never yours!” She yells out but he keeps talking, “I paid her to get naked and touch herself for me on camera. And she willingly obliged. She’s been mine for so long I can’t even think about anyone else. I didn’t know who she was until you brought her over, but now, I have to have her. Your mother never satisfied me the way she does and I had never even seen her in person before Sunday!”The words cut through me and my stomach twists itself into knots the more he says. No. There’s no way.
Six Like the Number Slaughter His Reputation
*Axle's POV*The look of confusion on my mother’s face tells me she still hasn’t figured it out. “Who?”“My fucking girlfriend! Your husband paid my underage girlfriend to strip for him on camera! Multiple times!”“I didn’t know it was her until last weekend and then she blocked me!” he yells.“You sure as hell knew who she was when you tried to stake your claim and get her to leave me for you an hour ago!”“What?!” Jameson and my mom say at the same time. I’m surprised when he doesn’t try to deny it and even more surprised that he doesn’t even look like he feels guilty about it. My mom looks at him and slaps him across the face.“You piece of shit!” She yells and stands up off the bed.I see Jameson clench and unclench his fists as his face heats up. I can tell he’s trying to stophimself from hitting him when someth

*Six's POV*I feel Jordan stir underneath me and then he looks down when I adjust my head so that my chin is on his chest.“Morning beautiful,” he mumbles. He was never a morning person.“Morning,” I reply.“How are you feeling,” he asks me.“Honestly? I have no clue.”“Do you wanna talk about it?”“Not really no. Thank you, for being here though."“Always,” he says and bends down to kiss my forehead.“Coffee?” I ask him. He nods and we get up. I put on a pair of boyshort underwear and then pull Jordan’s t-shirt over my head, enjoying how his familiar scent makes me feel comforted. He throws on just his grey sweatpants and then wraps his arms around my waist and says, “Ialmost forgot how good you look wearing my clothes.” I smile and very quickly, our clothes endup on the floor again.After we ge
Six Like the Number It's a Long Story
*Six's POV*When I make it downstairs, I find Axle leaning up against his car. I walk over to him and he stands up straight and he says, “Look, let me just start by saying that obviously I’m not happyabout seeing you with Jordan.” I go to cut him off but he says, "Just let me finish. I get it, I broke your heart and you needed someone. Literally anybody else would have been better, but I’m gonna let it go because this whole thing was my fault. I was pissed off at the whole situation and I took it out on you. I wasn’t thinking rationally. That was just too much information to process at once for me and I handled it like shit, and it took half a bottle of whiskey and a dose of reality check from a bartender of all people but I get it and I should have let you explain instead of just leaving you.”“Answer me this: If I had told you before the shit with your dad, would you have made mechoose between you and my job?

*Six's POV*About 15 minutes after the band leaves to go set up, we all head out to the dance floor right in front of the stage to secure our places before the hoard gets too large.The head of the prom committee comes on stage to introduce them and then the curtains open. Axle looks down and winks at me so I blow him a kiss back.They start their set and do several songs that are definitely more on the pop end of the spectrum than I’m used to hearing them play. That was probably intentional seeing as most people here would not be into hearing some of their more obscure music. I wonder if the committee had a say in these song choices.Everyone is singing along and dancing and at the end of one song, Axle goes right up to the mic and says, “Alright

*Axle's POV*In the last couple months since Laura died, things have been busy, but thankfully uneventful. Paradox has been practicing a lot and doing gigs all around town and everyone has been studying like crazy to make sure we all graduate, and for Six, to make sure she keeps her scholarship. We’ve all finished our exams and tonight is prom night, to be followed a few days after that by graduation.It’s decided that we’ll all get ready at my place and early afternoon everyone shows up and the girls retreat upstairs. Apparently hair and make up is a big production for them. My mom offered to let them all use her room and the ensuite and even said she would help them out. I think she secretly always hoped for a daughter. Her and Six have been getting really close, which makes them and me happy.

I was worried for a long time that if I lost her it would mean losing him too. I hug him for longer than usual and he starts to squirm so I put him down and he runs off.

*Six's POV*When my phone starts ringing, I pull it out and see the caller ID and my stomach drops out of my body. They never call.“Hello?”“Hey, Six. It’s Pete. Can you come down the station as soon as possible?”“Did you find her?” He pauses and the dead air over the phone all but confirms my thoughts.“We think so. I can’t say much over the phone, though. Do you have someone who can come with you?”“Yeah," I say, completely numb to emotion.“Okay, see you soon," he tells me.
Six Like the Number N*****x and Chill
*Axle's POV*When I wake up in the morning, I realize I’m pressed very close to the wall and I understand why when I lift my head up to see Theo on the other side of Six, snuggled into her side. She did tell me he does this sometimes.I lie my head back down and attempt to go back to sleep, but not long after, I feel movement in the bed. Six feels pretty still so it must be Theo. I look over just in time to see him stretch and smack her right in the face with his hand by accident. She wakes up, startled and moves his hand back down to his side. I gently rub my hand up and down her leg and she says,”How long have you been up?”“Not long. Maybe 5 minutes. Just long enough to see him assault you in his sleep," I say jokingly.“Yeah, he ca

Idon’t know why though. It’s not like I really have anything to worry about.Before I can get too deep into my spiral, the secretary says, “Miss. Keller? Mr. Hawthorn will see you now.” I get up and take Theo’s hand, following the lady back to an office. I see James Hawthorn sitting behind his desk and he gives me a warm smile before saying, “Welcome, please have a seat.”My mom and I each take one of the chairs and I sit Theo on my lap.“Right, so as discussed, Miss Laura Keller will be relinquishing custody of Theo Keller to you.
