Alayna's P.o.v

Its been two weeks, Luke hasnt talked to me, hasnt even asked to see Melody.

Ive tried calling, left several messages and Melody keeps a asking where he is, I just tell her hes busy with work.

I heard my phone ringing loudly as I walked over to it expecting to see my Mum's name, I saw Luke's.

"Hello?"

"Hey Layna"

"Hey Luke"

"I decided not to file for custody"

"Thank you" I said feeling extremely relieved.

"I'm still pissed, but I miss Melody and you" He said quietly.

"I miss you too" I said tears welling in my eyes.

"Can we meet for coffee or something?"

"Yeah absolutely, do you want me to bring Melody?"

"Yeah I miss her, see you in an hour? Fedra?" He asked unsure.

"Yeah okay, Fedras sounds great"

"Okay bye Layna"

OH MY GOD HE CALLED ME.

"Oh shit" I mumbled realizing I was in no condition to go in public.

........

We drove up to Fedras, Melody and I were looking rather sharp.

I saw Luke sitting at a booth when we walked in, I sat down and Melody immediately jumped next to Luke and wrapped her arms around his neck. He wrapped his arms around her small frame and kissed her cheek.

He was dressed in his 'You complete mess' shirt, red flannel, and black jeans. His hair was styled upwards in its normal fashion.

He looked great... considering.

"Hey Mel" He said smiling.

"Hey Daddy" she said returning the smile and then sat down looking at the menu with the coloring pages.

"So how are you Alayna?" He asked

"I'm okay" I lied "What about you?"

"I've been better" He said.

"Why am I here?"

"Because we need to talk about what happened"

"Okay" I said getting nervous

"I think you need to explain"

"There's nothing to explain, I was drunk the first time it happened, the second time was when we were fighting, and nothing really happened the third time"

"But it almost did"

"But it didnt"

"Why did you do it?"

"Because I'm an idiot" I whispered.

"You really have no reason"

"Not really, you wouldn't... yanno.. with me and I just started having doubts and made a poor decision and I'm sor-"

"If you say sorry one more time I'll explode" He said calmly.

"okay" I whispered.

"Do you want to start over?" He said looking at his hands.
