Caleb inhaled shakily and pushed away from the table, his good mood from this morning suddenly disappearing. The headache he had was getting worse by the second and he just couldn't take it. His skin felt like it was teaming with creepy-crawly bugs all over it "I think..." he shook his head slowly "I need some air." he quickly went to the sliding glass doors at the back of the dining room and went out onto the back porch.
Several deep breaths in, and slow breaths out. Caleb stood with his hands braced against the wooden rail of the back porch, looking out over the large expanse of their backyard. He had no idea what was going on with himself, and yeah, he was maybe freaking out on the inside a little, but he was trying to keep his cool - if not for his own sake, then their son's... He couldn't have a meltdown in front of Noah, not of the epic proportions he felt coming on.
He didn't even realize when tears started riding silently down his cheeks.
