Leati's heat broke as he stood in the door way and watched his daughter cry on her bed no kid deserved to be treated like this especially by their own mother.

"Baby girl" he said walking in and sitting on the edge of the bed "Talk to me" he told her but she wouldn't look at him so he picked her up and sat her on his lap.

"Jo the things that your mom was saying aren't true at all" he told her rubbing her back "You know, that right?" he asked

"Daddy please don't let her take me" Jo cried into his chest

"I won't baby" he told her "I promise that I will do whatever it takes to make sure that doesn't happen ok" he added.

"Are you and Rose going to have kids?" she asked him

"I hope so" he told her "Then you can have a little brother or sister" he added

"Oh" she said looking down at her hands and twirling her thumbs.

"But that doesn't mean I am going to love you any less or treat you any different than I do right now" he told her.

"Promise" she asked

"Pinky promise" he said holding his pinky up "I couldn't live without you Jo" he told her.

Rose came into the room and sat on the bed with them JoJo shot her head up and looked at her before climbing on her lap.

"Hi sweet pea" Rose said kissing her head "Jo I promise it's all going to be ok we will get through this as a family and I promise that you will never and I do mean never be forgotten or pushed to the side because quite frankly I need you in my life I mean who else is going to help me deal with this guy" she said throwing her thumb at Leati.

"Hey" he said looking at her

"See" Rose said with her eyebrows raised which earned her a giggle from her "Joelle just know you are the best little girl in the entire world your strong, beautiful, talented, smart, and the sweetest kid I have ever met and never let anyone make you feel different" she told her.

"Ok" JoJo said, "I love you" she told Rose

"I love you more" Rose said

"How about you go take a shower and get your PJ's on and we will meet you down stairs for a movie night" Leati told her

Jo nodded her head yes before jumping off Rose's lap and ran into her bathroom to get in the shower.

They walked into their bedroom and Rose yanked the drawer opened and started to grab clothes out before slamming it shut.

"That bitch has went too far" Rose yelled "She needs to be taught a damn lesson" she added

"I agree but we will do it in court we can't stoop to her level because that's what she wants so she has shit to use against us because she knows she can't win" he told her

"I know it just pisses me off so much" she added

"Me too baby" he said, "But let's just get down stairs and enjoy the night with our kid and help her forget about what happened for a little bit" he added

"Yeah" Rose said

They got dressed in there pj's and went downstairs joining the rest of their family to watch a movie of Jo's picking.

"Beauty and the Beast" she told them

"My favorite" Rose said sitting on the couch next to leati as JoJo squeezed in between them.

After the movie was over Leati walked his family out while Rose carried JoJo to bed she covered her up and kissed her head.

"I promise I will always protect you Jo" she said to her "sweet dreams" she added turning the light off and shutting the door.

Rose walked into her room and seen Leati sitting on the edge of the bed with tears running down his face as he sobbed into his hands she rushed over and sat down pulling him down to her lap as she ran her fingers through his hair.

"It's going to be ok baby" she said bending down and kissed his head.

"Why is she so horrible to her?" he asked

"Because she is a horrible person" Rose said, "Tracy wanted you not a kid and when that happened she felt like her life was over so she takes her anger and hate out on the person she feels ruined her life when in reality she is just a horrible person" she said

"Promise you won't hurt us" he told her

"I will never hurt you or that little girl because you two are my world and heart yall are my family and unlike Tracy that means something to me so I promise that I will never hurt either of you" she told him

"Ok" he said

Rose ran her fingers through his hair and laid her head against the head broad she knew it was her turn to be strong for the man who was always so strong for her, she heard his breathing even out followed by a light snore she kissed his head one more time.

"Sweet dreams, My love" she said before laying down next to him and falling asleep.
