Luis Jones' POV.

^^ Luis Jones

"So when are you gonna actually come and see me?" She asks down the phone.

I sigh.

"Luna, I just want to come and get my son when he is done visiting you" I say, tiredly rubbing my temples.

"Luis, he's my son too!" She whines annoyingly and I hold the phone away from my ear cringing.

"He's our son" she whispers, before sniffing sadly.

Here we go again.

She doesn't deserve him!

"I'll be coming to pick up my son, when I'm finished with work. Argue with me about it and I will make sure that you are drowning in court cases, until the new millennium. I'm a lawyer, I can make it happen." I tell her before hanging up.

I roll my eyes and stand up from my seat.

I walk across my large and pristine clean New York office to look at the silvery skyline.

New York.

It's far from home, but it's home.

I adjusted pretty quickly once I moved, so that I could be closer to my son.

I look at the picture on my desk of me holding him when he was born and I think about my 8 year old son, Kofi.

He wasn't born under the best circumstances, but I don't regret raising him at all.

His mother is the only thing I regret.

A whiny, complaining, cheating, drug taking, deviant little piece of work.

If there is one person I can't stand, it's her.

I only remain civil with her around my son because I don't want him to get hurt.

But he is smarter than it looks.

He senses the tension in the room  by a mile but he doesn't say anything about it.

He is a very quiet boy. Very smart.

He is one of the smartest boys in his school and he's one of their top athletes.

That's my son.

I smile at the thought.

But my smile quickly fades when I realise what I lost.

The time I had to take out of school...

Some of my closest friends...

Jayla.

I wonder how she is?

I wonder what she does...

If she's moved on. 

It's been 9 years, of course she has!

But I would know what was going on with her if that witch hadn't- -

I sigh.

I need to get this out of my system.

I walk back to my desk, eyes flickering to the clock on my wall.

I've still got time to kill before I have to step out to get him.

I pick up my office phone, but hesitate.

If I fuck this girl now, it's going to be headache for the next 3 days about how 'we're not close enough!'

Or

'When can I meet your adorable little son?!'

Is it worth it?

I put the phone down and grab my jacket.

No father ever got killed for picking up their son from their demon counterpart and it's not about to start now.

I step out of my office and go to the elevator, ignoring the bedroom eyes that a lot of the women are giving me, some of them, who sit in chairs, press their legs together and the rest speak in hushed tones.

Once I'm at the bottom floor, I sign out and then walk outside and go to my private parking spot, fishing my keys out of my pocket.

I go into my car and start it up, my mood perking up when I think about the new present I got Kofi for working hard and doing well on his math test.

I admit, I spoil the boy, but I can't help it!

And knowing that I have full custody of him means that I can do what I want.

One visit with his mom and I get him to myself for the rest of the week.

I scowl as I pull up in front of Luna's set of apartments.

I step out of the car mentally preparing myself as I approach the bleak beige coloured building.

I snatch a wet wipe out of my jacket pocket and wipe the buzzer before pressing her flat number.

"Hello?" Her shrill voice rings out, making me cringe.

"I'm here for my son" I say coldly.

"Oh, hey, Luis" She says, dropping the tone of her voice to try and sound 'seductive'.

"Sex has never been your strong suit Luna." I say, my voice hard and brittle.

She huffs and presses the enter button, so that I can come in.

I walk inside the dingy building and I try not to gag at the smell of piss and weed.

I walk up the stairs, not wanting a surprise from whichever the last crackhead to use the elevator was.

Once I finally get there, I knock twice.

I hear footsteps and then the door opens.

Luna.

She wears a black crop-top and a pair of ripped jean-shorts that are way too small for her.

Is she wearing makeup?

For fuck's sake.

I screw face her quickly and then look behind her.

"Kofi, I'm here!" I yell, pushing past her and into the flat.

"Dad!" I hear his little voice say and a grin splits my face in two as I catch sight of him.

I try not to let it drop when I see what he is wearing.

Why the fuck is he dressed like a criminal?!

He wears a pair of sagging ripped jeans with a red bandanna looped through one belt hole and a t-shirt that has 'SOUTH SIDE' written, in huge lettering.

He also wears a pair of beat-up black and white converses

I try hard not to let my anger boil over as I turn to look at Luna, my whole body tense.

She gives me a look of 'innocence' but I can see the tiny smirk on her face.

I stop myself from wrapping my hand around her throat and snapping it in one go.

Luna has no idea about my affiliation with the Golden Phoenix, but if she doesn't stop her bullshit, she will find out the difficult way.

I help my son wear his jacket and I zip it up to the very top, so that the shirt is completely hidden.

I also snatch the red bandana from his trousers and throw it in her face.

"See you in two weeks" I seethe and her face falls, as I pick Kofi off of the ground and balance him on my hip.

"2 weeks?!" She splutters.

"Y- you can't do that!" She yells as I head to the front door.

"Can't I?" I ask rhetorically.

I open the door and let myself out, snatching Kofi's bag from the chair, before closing the door.

I hear an angry scream from the other side and make a mental note to up it to 3 weeks.

"Is mommy okay?" Kofi asks, wrapping his tiny arms around my neck and resting his head.

I sigh.

"Mummy is tired and she needs a break" I respond, kissing the top of his head as I carefully walk down the stairs.

"Oh, okay..." he responds dolefully and my heart sinks.

We leave the building and I take him straight to the car, strapping him in to his car seat.

I make sure the door is on child lock and then I close it, walking to my side and then starting it up, before pulling out of the parking lot and onto the road.

*VROOM!*

I step on the gas, so that it makes a loud sound and Kofi giggles excitedly.

"Again! Again!" He laughs, his sullen mood forgotten.

"I got you a surprise at home" I say softly to him, and his eyes widen with anticipation.

"Is it chicken nuggets?!" He asks with big eyes at the thought of his favourite snack and I chuckle.

"That's for dinner, yes but no son, that's not the surprise." I tell him.

He bounces in his seat.

"Is it a book? A new game? A picture? Food?...."

                           ***

"Are you ready?" I ask and Kofi grips my hand harder.

"Yes!" He says, eyes fixated on the door.

I chuckle and then open it, stepping inside with him.

Kofi quickly takes off his little shoes and his jacket, putting them in their place and then running in the direction of the living room.

I laugh to myself.

I hear a delighted squeal and I smile.

I follow the noise and see Kofi on the floor, with a golden labradoodle puppy that is almost half his size sitting on top of him, yapping happily.

The golden ball of energy nudges his face with her snout and Kofi giggles.

"Is it a he or a she?" He asks, playing with its ears and hugging it hard enough to make it wriggle.

"It's... it's a she" I say reluctantly.

His eyes widen.

"I love her!" He says and my heart melts.

"What are you gonna call her?" I ask, picking the puppy up and letting it clamber onto my chest.

"Can I call her Lemon?" He asks with wide eyes mouth slightly open in anticipation.

"Of course you can" I  smile.

Lemon starts to wriggle so I let her down and Kofi hugs my leg and I pick him up.

"Thank you dad" He says.

I pick him up and kiss his head.

""You're welcome."

"I love you dad" he says, snuggling into my chest.

"I love you more" I say.

There is a comfortable silence.

"Now who wants chicken nuggets?!" I ask.

"Mee!" He responds.
