NO SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!




Nightmares


Dave sat there, watching his son as his chest slowly rose and fell with his even breathing. He knew he really should get to sleep, but he couldn't leave Cale's side. God he had missed him so much when she had taken him away from him... it had felt as if his heart had been ripped in two. And then the charges, he knew they had almost killed him, Jing-Mei had been the only thing saving him from that. But now that Cale was back home and Dave could stare at him again... he didn't know what to do with himself, it was like when he had first found Cale at his door. He had freaked, not knowing the first way to deal with a baby.

The first person he had called had been his brother, if course his brother hadn't known how to take care of a baby either, but that didn't stop him from trying to help. Then he had learnt Cale had SCID, he didn't sleep for a whole week after that, never even left Cale's side. Not until his brother had literally knocked some sense into him. It had been some book if he recalled right, one about how to take care of a disabled child. Of course that had started a fight, Cale was not disabled just sick. His brother had shook his head and pointed out a few paragraphs and soon Dave was able to sleep again.

Jing-Mei walked up behind him and put a hand on his shoulder, "Come to bed, he's sleeping honey." She whispered in his ear as she saw what he was watching.

"I know, but I missed him so much, I never realized how much my world revolved around him." Dave whispered back as he felt the pain come back to his heart. The painful truth that someday, Cale would no longer be with him, that he couldn't live very long. "God Jing-Mei, I can't loose him again it'll kill me."

"Dave don't think about that right now, that is the future. You should enjoy right now and do as much as you can with him, because if you don't you'll feel guilty because you didn't do as much as you could with him." She soothed as well as she could, knowing the man she loved heart was tearing in two a little more everyday.

Dave nodded and got up as he kissed Cale on the forehead, "Pleasant dreams," He mumbled to the sleeping toddler.

"DADDY!!! DADDY DADDY!" Dave woke up to Cale screaming. He jumped out of bed and ran to his son's bedroom. "Daddy where are you!" Cale cried in a squeky voice.

"Cale I'm here don't worry, Daddy's never gonna leave again." He soothed as he picked the small child up in his arms and hugged him as he ran a hand through his hair and one rubbed his back.

"Daddy, I had a nightmare that mommy was back and she took me away!" Cale cried into his father's shoulder.
