Chapter 19

Chapter 19 Leon's pov

Well the day came. I was sitting here seeing my little sister and my dear friend out the door. I knew it would hurt but I never knew it would hurt this much. These two have become so close to me over theses past few months and I hate to see them go.

I pulled my sister into a tight embrace, "promise you'll be safe and not get into too much trouble." I smiled slightly at her

"I'll be safe but we both know my future is trouble." She tried to give me a smile. I let her go and gave Michael a quick hug.

"You take care of her okay? And remember I don't want grand kids." I laughed

"Again...you're an uncle Lee." Hope laughed at me, "Well we should be off. I love you guys. Please take care of Leon, August. We both know he's a hand full." She smiled stood on her tip toes and kissed my head, "I'll be back...I promise." She said before Michael and her walked out the door.

As soon as they were gone the tears fell down my cheeks then I felt a small hand on my back. "Shhh...they'll be alright Lee....you know they can do this." He held me tight.

"I know...but Hope is my sister....and I care so much.... and I jut don't want her hurt." I said in short sobs.

So here I was comforting Leon. Doing anything to try and cheer him up. It's been at least two hours since Hope and Michael left and he was still crying. I tried to bribe him with I've cream and sweets but that didn't work. So I just grabbed his hand and led him up the stairs. I opened the door to his room and walked in with the sobbing adult.

"Lay down sweets...." I told him

"I dun wanna!" He pouted

"Please....for me..." I looked up at him with big eyes.

"Oh alright...." He reluctantly walked to bed and laid down.

"Good." I smiled at him and laid down beside him.

"Mmm." He wrapped his arms around me and held me close

"Ooof!" I said as I was pulled into him. I pulled my hand out from under his arm and slowly stroked his locks. I really didn't mind being his teddy bear. It actually made me happy knowing that he can find comfort in me.

"August....?" I heard a small voice say

"Yes my love...?"

"Will they be okay?" He asked in the same small voice.

"I know they will be." I kept stroking his hair and allowing him to hold onto me. In all honesty I didn't know if Hope and Michael would be okay, but all we can do is hope for the best as of now. The two of them are strong and smart...I'm sure they'll be safe.

I kept the older one in my arms until we both found ourselves in a comforting sleep.
