“, don’t go”! “, I have to, I am sorry, I can’t do this band thing”! “We have not even started yet, how can you say that you can’t deal with it”! “, you are number 1 with your first single, it’s going to be big”! “Don’t you want to be part of it”? He asked. “Yes, but I just can’t”! “ I love you” “ I am only 17, I don’t even have an education yet”! “No, but we don’t have to tell the public that we are together”! “ I am sorry, it’s not going to happen”! “I thought you loved me”! “Yeah I do love you, but it will be easier for you with no girlfriend”! “I just don’t understand it”! He said sad and sat down on his bed. “No I know”! “Do you want me to stop in the band”? “NO, I will never ask you to do that, you know you have all my support and I am very proud of you and the boys, but it’s just not me I am sorry babe”! said and sat down beside him. “We will always be friends right”? asked. “Yes we will always be friends, you are my best friend”! “And you are mine”! replied and gave her one last kiss. “You’ll always be my first love ”! “And you’ll be mine”! She said now with tears in her eyes. She really wanted to be with him all the way, but she would miss him everyday and she couldn’t hurt herself in that way, thinking about what he was doing with other girls, when she wasn’t with him. It was not that she didn’t trust him, but she didn’t trust the girls, the fans all around them and she knew how hard it could be for a guy only being 20. It was too early for him to settle down and she knew it.
Chapter 1
10 years later
It was weird to be back, everything still looked the same. was her hometown and it was still as beautiful as ever, but it was just too small for her. She had gotten hold of her best friend’s number and had arranged to meet her of their favourite café!
“ I can’t believe that you are here”! said smiling at her best friend from school. “No I know, but I decided to come back for a while”! “Only for a while”!? “Yeah I love London, I’ve been in New York for a long time and when I decided to come back, Dublin and especially Sligo wasn’t big enough for me”! “What you used to LOVE Sligo and Dublin, you hated to go to cities bigger than that”! “Yeah I know and then I fell in love with New York and now London, who knows maybe one day I’ll be back here to grow old”! said smiling. “You are crazy, what about your children; do you want them to grow up in a city like London”? “Lot’s of kids grow up in London, but actually I’ve decided not to have any kids”! said smiling at her best friend. “What when you were together with , you wanted a bunch of kids together”! “Oh yeah, , how is he by the way”! “Haven’t you talked with him”? asked surprised. “We lost contact 8 years ago or something like that, haven’t thought of him in a long time”! said being honest, sometimes he managed to sneak into her dream, but that was it, she had been busy meeting new people in New York and London and she loved her new life. “I can’t believe it, you guys were perfect together”! “Yeah the best friends right”! She laughed. “Whatever, he is probably married now”! “No he is not, not yet”! “Oh he is engaged”? “No, he has a girlfriend, they have been together for 3 years now, so it probably won’t be long”! explained. “Okay, what about and the lads”? “Well and I are still going strong and is together with now”! “Wow that’s great, so you are all Westlife couples, what about the other guys”? asked. “Well is with , quitted the band, but he lives in Australia now with his girlfriend and met a sweet girl her name is , they are getting married next summer”! explained. “A lot have happened in 10 years ay”!? said sitting down with the coffee she had just bought. “Yeah it has been an amazing 10 years, but I sure missed you”! “Yeah I’ve missed you too, I am glad I got your number from your mam”! smiled, “You look good you know, happy and very stunning”! “Thanks , so do you, I am sure that guy still makes you dizzy when he smiles. Remember in school, you were so crazy about him”! said laughing. “Yeah and yes he can still make me dizzy, but not as much when he smiles”! said with a dirty smile. “Oh you finally crossed that line”! laughed. “ it’s been 10 years of course we did”! said giggling. “And he was good, well or else you wouldn’t still be with him”! “!!! Well I have no complains what so ever”! said and the girls started to laugh. It was like they had never been apart and loved spending time with her again, being updated and stuff.
“So why aren’t with us”? asked when they sat in the bus going to Liverpool for the next gig”! “Oh she will arrive in Manchester; she just had somewhere to go”! said. “Where”? asked a bit confused. It was weird she wasn’t there, not once had she missed a gig, since the lads started bringing the girls on tour. “Well she had to go to the local café”! said smiling. “WHAT is that her reason”? asked laughing. “I know it’s good, but come on , she could go there whenever we are back home”! She added. “Yeah I know, but it was very important I would have been there as well if I didn’t have to work and I am sure , that if you knew why, you would have been there too”! said, he was really happy was finally back in , if not for long then just for a little while, he knew how much especially had been missing her, so when called, there had been no doubt, she would meet the guys later on the tour.
“Come on , nothing is more important than to spend my time, with my gorgeous and sweet boyfriend”! said blowing a kiss, who sat beside playing play station. grinned and leaned into , “She’s there with she’s back in ”! He whispered. “WHAT, WHY HAVEN’T ANYONE TOLD ME”! yelled. “I am sorry, but she just wanted , it would be too much for her the first day. “Oh my god, I would have been there, oh I so want to see her again”! “Yeah I know, I want to see her as well, but hopefully she’ll stay in town for a while”! said giving a soft hug. had tears in her eyes. “I can’t believe she hasn’t called me”! “Well she had lost all our numbers, you know we have all been changing a lot and then she met ’s mam and got hers”! said explaining.
“What are you guys talking about”? asked. “It’s nothing important”! said. “What, it’s more important than anything”! said. “What are you upset about sweetie”! asked. “I want to be in right now”! “What, you were really excited about going on tour with us again”! “Yeah that was before I found out”! “Found out what doll”! asked concerned. “Well before I found out that is back in town”! stopped playing immediately and looked at . “What did you just say”! “, she’s back in ”! “REALLY…how do you know”? looked at . “WHAT HOW”? asked. “Well she called and they agreed to meet up, that’s why she’s first joining us in Manchester”! replied. “I can’t believe this, why haven’t you told me”? asked puzzled. “ you have been together with for 3 years and you guys are happy, remember and I didn’t want to ruin that”! “Nothing is getting ruined because she is back, I would just have loved to see her again”! “Smell her, touch her”! He added in his thoughts. “Yeah we all would, what a bad timing she has”! said. “I can’t believe she’s back, what about bring her”! asked. looked at his mate, “You are a genius ”! He replied. “Oh you liked that idea did you”! said laughing. He knew had been thinking about every day since she left for New York. No one had ever thought she would leave , her favourite place in the whole world, but one day they had come back, she told them she had got herself a job in New York. was sure that it was because of all the memories of ; he knew she wasn’t as tough as she seemed to be.
“So how will we get it all arranged”? asked. “ when is joining us”! “She is joining us in Manchester as well”! said. “Well wouldn’t it be awkward for you, to meet there, the first time in what, 10 years with around”! “It’s only been 9 years since I saw her take of to New York and no it will be perfectly fine, I want to meet her, she has heard much about her. By the way I love and nothing is going to happen”! said not even believing it himself. “Well then I guess it won’t be a problem to get to ask to bring her along”! said looking at . “No of course not, I would love it if she came along, haven’t seen her for years”! “Oh yes , that’s the best idea you have had in a very long time”! said kissing his cheek. “I can’t wait to meet her, she sounds wonderful”! said. “Aaww she is, and her used to go out”! said. “GO OUT, we were together for 4 years”! said. “What went wrong”? asked concerned, but also a bit curious. “Well she didn’t want to be a part of this world”! “She didn’t support you guys, how can you call her a friend”! “Oh , you don’t know her, she supported me and the lads more than anyone else, she just didn’t want to have a part of the cake”! said a bit sad. “And you have missed her ever since”? “Well new things happened in my life, so it wasn’t that bad, the worst times, was when I was back home and she wasn’t there. In my mind would always be in ALWAYS, but she moved to New York, I really hope she’s back for good”! said puzzled. “You still love her”! said looking at his best friend. “No not like that anyway, but I have missed having her in my life”! “Yeah that’s how we all feel”! said. “So you know if she’s back to stay”? asked looking at the lads. “Well she isn’t”! said. “She’s going back to New York”? said biting his lip. “No she’s got an apartment in London now”! “London is not that bad”! replied looking at . “No I guess not, well it’s better than New York anyway”! said forcing a little smile.

When heard whistle she took a deep breathe and went inside the bar, where everybody went quiet. She looked around the guys. “ BABY”! yelled, while raising her fist. They always used to yell that, when they visited other cities, so she did it just to break the ice and they went hysterically, yelling it back. “Hey guys”! She said and walked around hugging people. “Oh , it has been so long since I have seen you”! “Yeah 10 years baby, but you look more beautiful than ever”! “Thanks you are not that bad either ”! replied smiling. “Hi you must be I am ”!

He said opening his arms and he embraced her. “I have missed you so much, you won’t believe it, I’ve been thinking about you everyday”! “Everyday, well I have missed you a lot as well, but I met new people in New York and I have also met a lot of people in London, so I started to live with the longing”! “Yeah I know how it is”! said. “I am really proud of you, you know”! “Thanks , wow I really can’t believe that you are actually here, it’s amazing I’ve dreamt about this for years.

She smiled. “But tonight, you are going with me, you are not leaving me alone with all those couples”! said pouting her bottom lip. “You can’t do that to me”! “What”? said knowing exactly what she was doing. “Well that pouting and those puppy eyes”! “They always worked”! said laughing. “Yeah and it still does, let me get dressed”! “That’s the spirit”! said. “Well yeah I don’t want men to drool all over you, without me being there to pretend to be your boyfriend”! He thought to himself. He just forced a smile and then he went to the bedroom and got dressed.

They looked up and saw waving them over. took ’s hand and they went to the table. “Finally you got dressed”! said looking at , “Well I am a sucker for puppy eyes, especially hers”! said making giggle. “Well want a drink”? asked. “Sure, what do you want”? asked. “Just a beer, girls, who wants to join me on the dance floor”? asked and stood up immediately.
“So how did you get him to come”? “The puppy eyes still work”! said laughing. “You still like him don’t you”! “Well he is still sexy that’s for sure”! “. be honest”! “I don’t know ; he is with now I don’t want to destroy their relationship she seems in love”! “Yeah, she probably is, but not for the right reasons and loves her back, but not the same way he loved you”!
“So those eyes still work”? asked laughing. “Yeah of course, she looks so sweet and I couldn’t let her go out in that dress without me”! They all started to laugh. “I don’t think you are a sucker for pouting lips and puppy eyes , I think you are a sucker for ”! said laughing. “Yeah, you are probably right”! He replied blushing. “I haven’t seen you blushing for a long time ”! said. “Nah I know”! “You are falling in love all over again, I can see it in your eyes”! said. “I don’t know, well I can’t help to think that we would be perfect together, but you guys knows how much I want a huge family. doesn’t want children, so it won’t be with her”! “Why don’t you change her mind then”! asked. “How am I supposed to do that”? “I have no idea, but once she wanted 5 children with you, maybe you can change her mind again”! She smiled. “Well am I the only one who remembers a girl called ? you have to end it with her, if you love ”! replied. “Yeah I know that, but I love as well, but just not as I should I suppose”! replied. “She’s still a good dancer”! said looking to the dance floor. “Yeah she has some great moves”! “ we don’t want to hear about it”! said making them all laugh.
After a few hours they were all getting drunk. “Well lads and girls I better get back, you know me when I get too drunk, then I will go crazy and we can’t have that”! said. “So nothing has changed there”? asked. “Nope sorry”! replied laughing. “Well let me follow you home”! “No it’s okay, you can stay and have some fun with the guys”! “No remember I wasn’t allowed to leave you alone with them and it’s the same the other way around”! said smiling and stood up. “Well okay then, let’s go”! said and they said goodbye to the others and went back to the hotel.
“So here we are again”! He said when they stood outside her bedroom. “Yeah, well do you want to come in”? “No I better not”! said and kissed her cheek. “Okay see you in the morning ”! replied and went inside and closed the door. She went to the chair and started to take of her shoes. When she was about to get undressed she heard a knock on the door.
“…”! She said smiling. “Yeah, well is it okay if I change my mind”? “Yes of course come on in, I was just changing”! “You don’t have to, you look gorgeous”! “Thanks, but I am not going to sleep in this one”! She said looking down herself. “No of course not, but we are not going to sleep just yet”! replied and sat down in the couch. “So what are we going to do”? asked winking. “Well for a starter, you get your arse over here”! He said and she sat down beside him. “What’s up”? She said smiling. leaned in and brushed his lips softly over hers. just sat smiling and he decided to lean in again and to his surprise she kissed him back. When he pulled back he looked directly into her eyes and smiled. “This is so much better than I remembered it”! said. “Yeah I know”! said leaning in and kissed him again. “So where do you think this will lead to”! asked. “The bed maybe”! said giggling. “Well then I better help you out of that dress”! He said and stood up reaching out his hand. She took it and stood up and helped her out of the dress. They went to the bed and lay down. “Are you sure you want to do this ”! “Yeah I am, you are on the pill right”? “Yeah I am, I wouldn’t let you get near me if I wasn’t”! replied smiling and he started to laugh.
Chapter 6.
The next morning woke up, feeling ’s arms around her. It felt safe, she had had the best sex in her life and she could still feel his hands all over her body, they were everywhere and it felt so right. “Are you awake”? She heard him ask with a very husky and tired voice. “Yeah I am”! She replied and rolled onto her back. He lay on his elbow smiling at her, then he leaned in and received a good morning kiss. “Thanks for last night sweetie”! “No I want to say thanks to you, it was so amazing”! “Yeah wasn’t it”? just nodded. “So are you going to stay here in bed with me all day”? “ you have to meet fans and so on, you are a very busy man”! “Yeah I know that, but that isn’t until tonight”! He replied. “Well what about we order some breakfast from room service and stay in bed a little longer and then maybe we can go for a walk later”! “Sounds good ”! said kissing her again.
“Hey have any of you seen ”? asked. “Or ”! said looking around. “No haven’t heard from any of them today”! said smiling. “What are you smiling at hun”`? asked. “Isn’t it weird that none of them are here right now”? “Yes you are actually right, let me check something”! said and stood up
“Excuse me can you help me”? asked the girl standing in the reception. “Yes of course Mr. what is it”? “Can you tell me if Mr. is in”? “Well I haven’t seen him this morning so I guess he is still sleeping”! “So can you tell me if Ms. is in”? asked smiling. “Well I know she is in, she just ordered breakfast for two”! “OH, did she now”? asked smiling, “Thank you”! He added and went back to the restaurant.
“So did you find out anything”? said looking at her boyfriend. “Well is still in and guess what”? “WHAT”? They all asked. “ is in too and she just ordered breakfast for two”! “No way”! said. “Yeah, are we taking a guess who’s up there with her”? “No I think we know who it is”! replied.
“Oh it’s so great to just be laying here”! said. “Yeah and eating breakfast in bed, I haven’t had breakfast in bed since you made it at your parents place”! said. “REALLY, your boyfriend in New York never made breakfast for you to have in bed”? “Nope, he wasn’t a gentleman like you ”! said giggling. started to tickle her. “No , pleeeeeaaaaseee stop..STOP”! She yelled laughing. smiled and rolled down beside her. “I still love you ”! “I love you too , but we still don’t know each other”! “No I know, but I know I want to be with you all the time”! “ your highest wish is to have a huge family, just like your mam and dad and I can’t give you that”! “Why not”? “I told you already and by the way I am going to live in London for a while”! “Yeah, but I haven’t asked you for any kids now…maybe in a few years”! smiled. “I’ll think about it….hmmm NO”! smiled. “I’ll make you change your mind”! “You can’t”! said kissing his forehead and stood up. “Where are you going”? “Bathroom is that okay”? she said laughing. He just smiled.
“ there is a knock on the door”! said. “Can you please see who it is”? asked washing hands. went to the door. “…and all the rest of you”! said looking at them. “They all just smiled when they saw him in nothing but jeans. “ you are not even wearing socks and your jeans are open”! said winking as she passed him in the door. “Love who was it”? asked when she went to the main room of the suite. “OH hey guys”! “Love it is now”? asked laughing. “Did you guys spend the night together”? looked at with a smile. “Yeah we did”! said. “So what does this mean”? asked. “We haven’t talked about that yet”! said. “You guys still love each other after 10 years”? asked. “Yes we do, but we have to get to know each other again, before we decide anything”! replied. “Well guys, what about we have a shower and we can all meet up downstairs”! said. “Okay, we’ll be in the bar”! said and they all went out of her room.
“That was fun ay”? asked looking at . “Well now we don’t have to sneak around, but hopefully none of them will tell ”! “I will tell her, don’t worry, let’s enjoy our time together until we’ll be in London and when she arrives I will tell her”! “ she’s your chance to have a huge family”! “I want to be with you, so if you aren’t having my kids I am not going to have any”! “ can we please stop discussing it”? “So you don’t want to have a relationship with me”? He asked very confused. “Yes I would love that, but you promised me that we could get to know each other first and I am not even near to be ready to talk about children”! smiled. “Okay I’ll shut up, now let’s have that shower”!
Chapter 7.
“I’ll call you as soon as I have told her”! said hugging at their hotel. had just arrived and was about to go home, she had told the other guys goodbye and now she had to say goodbye to as well. “Yeah, well just take your time okay”! replied. “I love you, you know that right”! “Yes I know, I love you to…”! “But what”? “But nothing”! smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek. “Talk to you soon ”! said and took her suitcase and went outside, where she hailed a cab immediately.
“So isn’t she staying with us here in London”? “No , she wanted to go back to her apartment”! “And I so want to be there with her”! thought. “Well okay, then I’ll have to wait to get to know her better”! “Yeah…”! replied. “Come on let’s go upstairs, I know what I want to do with you ”! “PLEASE stop calling me that stupid name”! “Stupid, that’s my nickname for you”! “Yes and I really hate it”! said. “You hate it, why haven’t you told me”! “ I have told you hundred of times”! “You haven’t”! “Yes I have, I tell you all the time”! “What’s up with you , you have changed in the two weeks I have been in Ireland”! “Yeah I have…”! “And that means”! “ I love you, but not like I used to, I am really sorry”! “Is it because of ”! “Might be, but I am not sure, I just can’t stay in this relationship”! looked at him. “I can’t believe you , we have been together for 3 years and we are the happy couple you know”! “Yeah I know, but I am not happy in our relationship anymore”! “What will you do if she doesn’t want you”? “Well I have to get over that, I can’t force her to be with me”! said. “Just give us one more chance, you know I have already planned our future with 3 kids and a big wedding”! “”! “WHAT ”! “I can’t do this, I am sorry, you need to leave”! “Okay, if you are really sure”! “I am”! said and walked to the lift and went upstairs. He really wanted to call , but he didn’t
“So have you talked to ”? asked when she met for a shopping trip. “No I haven’t I guess he decided to stay with ”! “That’s it, he broke up with her a couple of days ago, I don’t know why he hasn’t called you”! “Well babe I told him I didn’t want any children, you know how much he wants a big family and I can’t give him that”! “ you can change your mind”. “No I can’t”! “Why the hell not, you guys are perfect together”! “Yeah I know we are, but I can’t give him that family, I can’t have children, I had an infection in New York and they told me I won’t be able to have children”! said with tears running down her cheeks. “Oh my god why haven’t you told him”? “Because it’s his dream and you know I would love to give birth to his children, I just can’t”! “You have to tell him”! “No, it’s better this way. Please don’t tell him anything ”! “Do you still want to go shopping”? “No I don’t think I want, I think I better get home, take a long bath”! “Okay I won’t tell him anything. We are going back to Ireland tomorrow, so if he doesn’t call you, then please give him a call”!
“So babe, weren’t you supposed to go shopping with on your last day here”? asked when came into the restaurant. “Yeah well, she doesn’t feel that well, so she went back home to get a long bath”! “Isn’t she feeling well, what’s wrong with her”? asked. “Well I don’t know , why don’t you call her yourself, you haven’t even called her telling her that you and have broken up”! “No but I guess you told her right”? “Yeah I did”! “Thanks, well she’ll probably call me then”! “No believe me she won’t”! replied. Then ’s phone rang, “Erm yes she will”! He said smiling.
went inside her apartment. She dressed down to nothing and then she went to have a bath. She had brought her phone and when she sat in the hot bath she called .
- here.
-Hi, it’s , so I heard you broke up with !
-Yeah I did, I am sorry I didn’t call you; I just had some thinking to do!
-It’s all okay; I think it’s for the best if we don’t do anything serious about this.
-What babe you can’t do this to me, I love you and I want to get to know you again!
- I cannot give you what you want I am really sorry!
hung up the phone and dropped it on the floor before starting crying. She knew it had been a mistake to get so close to him and it wasn’t her plan, but it happened and now she could only hurt him, she wanted to have that big family and she wasn’t able to give him what he wanted, so he had to move on and so did she.
After her bath she went to her living room and she put on Marley and me and cuddled up in her couch. She always saw that movie, when she was sad. It was the saddest movie ever.
Chapter 8.
“ have you heard from her”? “No I have not heard from her for 2 months now”! “Well , you are so stubborn why don’t you call her”? “Because, she told me to get on with my life, she doesn’t want to give me the huge family I’ve always dreamed of”! “ I promise you, that she wants to help you, she just can’t”! “No she can’t and she doesn’t want to”! “ I promised her not to tell you this, but I need to”! “Tell me what”? “I need to tell you, that she would love to give birth to your children”! “She told you that”? asked with a smile. “Yeah she did”! “That’s great”! “Yes, but she can’t”! “Why not”? He asked confused. “Because she can’t get pregnant”! “Why”? “… she had an infection and she can’t have children no matter how much she wants to”! “Why didn’t you tell me this before” asked. “Because she told me not to”! “Okay, well I better get to London then”! He said. “What for”? “Because I need to talk to her”! He replied.
stood looking at the piece of paper with the address had given him. “Breathe ”! He said to him self and knocked on the door.
“ , what are you doing here”? said hugging him. “I talked to ”! “Oh…OH you did”? “Yeah I did, why didn’t you tell me”? “Because I don’t like to talk about it, it’s easier to say that I want no children”! smiled, “Can we talk about this inside, you know London isn’t the warmest place in December”! “No I am sorry”! said and let him pass. “So what have you been up to, are you together with again”? “No I am with no one”! “Okay”! said smiling. “You actually can’t have babies”? “Well I…I thought I couldn’t”! “You thought”? He asked taking off his coat and sat down in the couch.
“Yeah, well they always told me I couldn’t, but somehow we just fit perfect together”! “You and me”!? asked, he was very confused now. “Yeah, because I am pregnant”! said smiling.
stood up immediately. “, please say something”! “When did you find out”? “Yesterday, I have been feeling bad for a long time and I never thought about taking a pregnancy test, but the doctor made me take one and it was positive. She then took a blood test and it’s still positive…I am pregnant, I really can’t believe it”! said tears welling up.
“Wow, I didn’t expect this, you are really pregnant”? He asked putting a hand through his hair. “Yeah I know how surprised you must be, I never thought it was possible”! “ this is bad timing”? “What…”! “No I mean I have just dumped and it’s just become public and now you are what…2 months pregnant, the press will have a field trip”! “ I wouldn’t have told you if I knew you would react like this. I thought you would be happy”! stood starring out of the window. “I am happy you told me ”! “But you can’t be there for us”? “Well I don’t know if I am ready for it”! “You didn’t talk about anything else than children the two weeks we were together”! “I know…and I thought you told me you were on the pill”! “ I was told I would never be able to have children”! “So you weren’t on the pill”! “For what use”! said while she dried away her tears. “Well you are pregnant now, might have been wise to be on it”! “For fucks sake …”! said and stood up. “I don’t know what to tell my parents”! “You don’t have to , I can do this alone”! “ no one is able to do a good job alone”! “Well I thought my mam did a great job with me and I can do it”! “So you want to show our baby, that it’s okay to skip protection and handle everything alone”! “ you are really not fair now, I want you to go and I am really sorry I told you”! said and opened the door. “I am not going”! “ I want you out of here, go back home and think about it”! “I am staying here”! He said looking at . “Okay, I’ll be in my bedroom, just feel like home”! She said and went to the bedroom. lay down on the couch. “I can’t believe this, finally I am getting what I want and I behave like a jerk”!
“ I think I better go back home like you said, I need to think about this”! “Okay, I understand”! said from the other side of the door. “Are you sure you’ll be okay, I promise I won’t take too long to think”! “Take all the time you want”! “Will you please come out here for a moment”? asked. opened the door. “What is it”! He gave her a huge hug. “I promise I’ll be there as much as I can, I promise you that, but I need to think about how much involved I want to be”! “Yeah , that’s understandable”! “Are you sure”? “Yeah , go home and talk with someone about this”! “Does know”? “No I haven’t told anyone, just you and the doctor knows about it”!
When was gone broke down, she really wanted him to hold her, but she knew he wouldn’t, but she didn’t understand him. This was his dream and not all things in the world could be planned. Of course everything in ’s Westlife schedule was planned, but wasn’t part of this world.
“ what are you doing home already, I thought you were visiting ”! said. “Yeah I did see her, but I had to go back home”! “Okay things didn’t go as planned”! “Erm no, not really”! replied looking at his beer. “I don’t understand it, she would be thrilled to have you there”! said. “Yeah, but she had a surprise for me”! said taking a sip of his beer. “Oh what was that”? “Nothing, but I had to get out of there and back here, I don’t want to talk about it”! replied.

“Are we going to a party”? asked, when buckled up her two children. “I want to fly again”! said and the two kids just started laughing. “You two are crazy, well you better sleep for a while we have a long ride”! said smiling at her two toddlers. It had been easier than she thought to raise the two of them alone. She missed and had lost contact to + " ") and , or she stopped picking up the phone when her day got busier. She had read somewhere that and had got a baby boy and and and and were pregnant. When she arrived to both her children was fast a sleep. There were lots of cars outside. She hadn’t replied ’s phone call, but had decided to take a chance and go there.
“ is that you”? She heard someone say when she stepped out of the car. “Oh hi Mr. , yeah I am sorry I didn’t reply the phone call, but I decided to go anyway”! She said blushing a bit. “I think that’s a good idea, where’s your room mates”? “Well they are my children”! said smiling. “And they are sleeping, I better wake them up”! She added. “Let me help you”! He walked to the car and looked inside.
“Hey guys, you got to wake up now, we are going to a party now”! said and took out . Peter helped her with . “Mam”! said and walked over to her and took her other hand. “Well I think I have a son that will be surprised”! “Surprised”? asked. “Yeah that you have children”! “Oh, well he knew I was pregnant, so it won’t be that big a surprise”! “What when he sees them, ”! “What are you thinking about ”? “Well look at them, they have his eyes, smile and his hair”! smiled, “You are very clever Mr. ”! She said smiling. “Does he know”? “Yes, but I never got to tell him that it was twins”! said. “Well I can’t believe he didn’t tell us”! “Well he wasn’t ready anyway, but I guess he has moved on”! “No actually not, he is still single”! smiled. “You are smiling”! “Yeah I still like him”! “Who do you like mam”? asked. “Your daddy”! replied smiling even more.
“Look who’s here”! yelled through the room. Everybody stopped talking and saw for a short moment. She went out in the hall and helped the children get off their jackets. “Who was it”? asked. “She’ll be here any minute”! said. “Hi”! said smiling and waving. “Oh my god you came”! said walking over to her giving her a big hug. “You said you didn’t mind if I brought somebody so I did”! stood looking at her; she looked tired, but still beautiful, when she said she had brought someone, his smile faded. “Of course it’s okay, there is food enough”! “I am glad, but they don’t eat too much”! replied smiling. “ and come over here and say hello”! The two toddlers came in smiling. “ this is my children and ”! “Oh dear, they are so beautiful”! looked at the two children, how could there be two, had she already met somebody else, they looked the same age. He looked up and got eye contact with her.

He asked confused. “Well you didn’t react very well to the fact that I was pregnant, so I never got to tell you there were two”! stood looking at the two of them talking, “I am sorry to interrupt; did you just say that these two beautiful kids are ’s”? “Yes dear, look at them, they are our grandchildren, they look so much like him”! said. “Yeah I noticed, but why haven’t you told him”! asked looking even more confused. “Mam she did…I had no idea what to do”! said a bit sad. “What to do , we have missed almost 4 years of their lives and so have you”! “I am sorry mam”! said and walked outside. “Can I ask you to look after the children, I’ll go talk to him”! said smiling. “Of course dear”!
“ , where are you going”? yelled when she saw about to step into his car. He turned around and looked at , “I am so sorry”! He said and stepped out of the car. “It’s okay, really it is ”! “They are so beautiful”! “Yeah they look like you, the beautiful eyes, the beautiful nose and the beautiful smile, their hair, you know it’s all from you”! “ and ay”!? “Yeah, do you like the names”? “Thanks do they have my last name”? “Not yet”! “Why”? “Because you never wanted people to know about my pregnancy”! went closer to , “You know I love you right”! He asked. “I love you too”! leaned in and they kissed. “MAAM”! yelled and came running. “What is it sweetie”? “Where are you going”? “I am not going anywhere”! bent down and picked up his little boy, “Hi ”! “ this is your daddy”! “Hmmhm”! said a bit insecure. “Well I better get in and find my girl, what do you think”? asked. “Yeah I think you should do that”! said and put her arm around his waist. He put his arm around her shoulder and then kissed the top of her hair.
When they came inside, handed over to and looked at , who were sitting on the floor playing with some of the other girls at the party. “Hey ”! She looked up at and smiled, which caused him to shed a tear. “You are crying”! “Yeah I am, do you know why”? He asked picking her up. She shook her little head. “No”! “Because I am so happy, that you and came here with your mam”! and went over to and . “, this is daddy”! looked at and broke into a huge smile and then started to give him butterfly kisses all over. “You are not going back to London are you”? asked looking at . “Where are we supposed to be then”? “Well I have a huge house you know and it’s really empty, I would love it if you moved in with me”! “ I don’t have any work over here”! said looking down. “No, but we have memories and you don’t have to work, because I want you to come with me all over the world when we are on tour”! leaned in and kissed . “So that’s a yes”? “Yes”! replied. put down to play with the other children and embraced , “I love you so much”! “I love you too sweetheart”! “Will you marry me”? “Are you serious”? “Yes I am, I don’t want to spend another day without you”! “I would love to marry you ”! replied planting her lips on his yet again.
