What You Call Love
C16
As I open the doors to leave this dreadful courtroom, I feel a light tap against my shoulder. My hair flies in the air as I turn around facing my dumb ass lawyer.
"Fuck off." I say blankly to her. There was no need for her to push me around and I do nothing about it anymore since this court thing is basically over.
"Well excuse me for trying my hardest to get you custody of Ema." I loudly laugh sarcastically as I rip my arm from her grip. My serious eyes meet her as I began to speak.
"Really? Your fucking hardest? If anything you didn't put any effort into this case at all."
"Your ungrateful. I tried my hardest and I'm sorry you can't see that." She rolled her eyes at me as she walks away back into the courtroom to gather her belongings.
"Lawyer lady." I scream cupping my hands over my mouth. She looks back at me with a confused look on her face. She mouthed yes to me so I can continue what I was saying.
"You suck dick at being a lawyer." I scream at the top of my lungs. All eyes were on me, even Harry as a smirk appeared on his face.
I walked out of the courtroom with my middle finger up just for that amazing lawyer who did so much to help me.
I hop into my car and instantly drive off my the court. My mind was being suffocated with all this information I had to process in my head and I was getting a fucking head ache.
Why would the judge even do this kind of shit to me? Does she not know that I'm trying to actually get a life, oh and Terrell! What is he going to think? I am so putting my relationship in jeopardy by doing this.
I snatch my phone out of my purse with my shaky hands as I hear the the ringer go off. I immediately press the answer button once I see the name that pops up on the screen.
Me: I'm going to go get my nails done, wanna come? Cause I need to Vent to you.
Christina: hello to you too Taylor and yeah sure just give me a few and I'll meet you there.
Me: alright, bye.
Christina: bye.
~End call
I get home and change my outfit to this. I wasn't about to wear that outfit I wore to court to the nail salon. I touch up my makeup and add some nude lipstick as Christina texts me she's outside.
I then grab my small purse and walk to the door. Before I leave, something just makes me look back. My eyes scan this very small apartment. But even though it was small, it had Many memories.
The first time Ema walked.
The first time Ema talked.
The time when I brought Ema home from the hospital when she was first born.
But my mind couldn't get rid of picturing Rashon hurting my little baby, so that memory over laps all the other ones. Maybe it wasn't such a bad idea that I was finally getting rid of all these sad and happy memories. It's time to start new ones.
(Harry's POV)
I walk into my apartment with a huge smile on my face. Maybe because they love of my life is going to be living with me for almost a year! And she has too!
"dada." Ema runs to me and hugs my legs with her arms. I deeply chuckle running my fingers through her silky curls just like mine.
I picked her up and she kissed my cheek smiling widely. I brought her to the kitchen where all the boys we're sitting and eating.
"what's up guys?" I say to everyone as I sit her on the counter as I opened the fridge for something to eat. Everyone said there hi back.
"How was your day today Ema?"
"good dada." Her feet swayed back and forth hitting the counter.
"What did you and your uncles do?" I took a sip of the water I just opened from the fridge.
"cowor, and uncle Louis wore a pink dress." She covered her mouth with her hand as she laughed at her joke. I laughed too just by picturing Louis wearing a pink dress playing dress up with Ema.
"Hey? For your information... Ema." Here comes the sass master. "It wasn't a pink dress, the dress was a peach color!" I face Louis and laugh like crazy. Why would he know the difference between pink and peach?
"Hey Hazza" My head snapped in the direction where Liam's voice was coming from. He was standing in the door frame of the kitchen waving the Ema.
"Hey Liam. Can I talk to you for a second?" Liam nodded his head up and down as I picked Ema up. Her small arms wrapped around my neck and her head laid on my chest. This was always her favorite thing to do when I would hold her.
I hands Ema to Niall before and and Liam walk into the living room. We can't our seats on the couch. I turned the television volume up just so Ema couldn't hear me talk about Taylor again. Who knows if she'll throw another tantrum.
''What did the judge say?''
''She said that me and Taylor both get joined custody of Ema and Taylor has to move in with me.'' Liam jumped from his seat and gave a high five.''I told you telling Ema that was going to work.'' Oh yeah, this was all mine and the boys idea. We got Ema to tell the judge that she wanted both of her parents. All I had to tell Ema was that Ill buy her a big princess play house... which she hasn't stopped bugging me to get her since.
''so when is she moving in?'' Liam said after he calmed down from all the excitement for some reason. ''next week. So I need to start getting the house ready. I mean its empty but it still needs to look good right?'' Liam nodded his head up and down as he got off the couch and walked to the kitchen. Before he completely entered it, he looked back at me.
''harry?''
''mhhhhmm.'' I looked up at him.
''all I'm asking you is to not fuck your chance up with Taylor like you did last time. Okay? Because about four years ago, you had a million dollar smile on your face every time I saw you, but since then.. that's smiles been like, and twelve dollar smile.'' He chuckled.
(Taylor's POV)
''Tips for two please.'' I said to the woman who was standing at the cashier. She directed me and Christina to tow empty seats. I took my seat next to Christina as I lay my hands on the table ready for the woman to do. I haven't yet told Christina about what happen because I just know how to. Its a lot harder then it seems ...
As the lady started so remove the old nail polish from my nails, I heard Christina call my name.I look over at her and nod my head up and down so she knew I was now listening.
''What did you need to vent to me about?'' Whelp, the moment I dreaded to come finally arrived. Yay me!! I took a deep breath before letting it all out. Christians lips parted as I finish telling her. She didn't make a sound just stared at me, wide eyed, with her mouth open.
''Hellooo, earth to Christina.'' I took my free hand and waved it in front of her face.
Nothing happen.
I gave her one good slap to the face which made her snap out of whatever she was in and pay attention back to me.
''Don't you dare slap me bitch!!!" Christiana's back. I just laughed at how she was bugging out over me living with Harry and Ema.
''Calm down girl. Why are you so excited."'She immediately stopped her little happy dance if I must say and stared at me with a straight face which made me burst our in laughter. It was always funny to me when Christina tried to become serious. Shes is basically never a serious person.
''The real question is, why aren't you excited?'' Why would I be excited over this?I mean I'm happy that I get to have my daughter back but I don't want to see Harry's face everyday. When I heard Christina sigh my eyes immediately moved to her.
''You should be happy Taylor... Your finally getting what you wanted. Your family.''
''I look down at my gorgeous nails before handing the cashier a 50$ bill.
I really do like them. They tie the ''new'' me together.
''I like them. Probably the first time you got your nails done in like 10 years. wait, you weren't even alive ten years ago.'' She laughed at her joke as she paid for her nails.
''but you were live. And you were with George Washington when he became president.'' She playfully hut my arm as we walked out the shop.
''Im on 23 for your information!''
''Coming from the girl with gray hairs in her head.'' She frantically opened her purse and pulled out a small pocket mirror as her fingers skimmed through her hair.''Are you serious!? Where are the hairs?? No no this cant be happening! I'm so young!''
My hand pulled out my phone once I heard it ringing. I pulled my hair to one side as I held it up to my ear.
Me: Hey baby? whats up?
Terrell: I need you to come over. I have to talk to you.
Me: About what?
Terrell: Just come over please
Me: Alright. Ill be over in a few , bye
Terrell: Bye
~End Call
''Who was that?'' Noisy Christina asked.
''Terrell. He says he needs to talk to me now.'' I drop my phone in my purse as I think about what Terrell really needs to talk to me about that's so urgent.
''Lets hope hes not breaking up with you." Christina chuckles to herself.
I move closer to her with my eyebrows creased together. ''What?'' she asked in concern. I touched her hair.
''Oh nothing, just another gray hair.'' I playfully slap Christians cheek as I walk away in search for my car. ''Fuck you.'' she yelled at me.
''Love you too Chris.''
"Fuck off." I say blankly to her. There was no need for her to push me around and I do nothing about it anymore since this court thing is basically over.
"Well excuse me for trying my hardest to get you custody of Ema." I loudly laugh sarcastically as I rip my arm from her grip. My serious eyes meet her as I began to speak.
