Stay.

Karlie's POV.
"Who's got the most cutest little laugh, yes my little man does. Ethan stop throwing food at me, Karlie tell him to stop throwing yucky baby mush at me." Ethan's now three months, he's a chubby little mite, with my dirty blonde hair and pearly green eyes, and his laugh makes every bad thing that's ever happened seem like a distant memory. "Mrs Kloss he's three months old and it's his first time eating actual food. Don't you think he's bound to throw it if you let him put his hands in it?" Taylor threw her head back to look at me, letting go of the bowl on the high chair. "I told you I kept Swi-" A splatter of baby food hit her in the back of her head, causing her to stand up and run across the kitchen to get a cloth. Taylor gave me a cold hard look before looking back to Ethan who was messing with the bowl of food. I took him out of his high chair and placed him back into his play pen.

"Taylor I'm sorry I told you I would feed him. When do you have to leave?" Taylor is leaving for the 1989 tour today and leaving me at home with Ethan and the cats. I wish I could go, but I have photo shoots and a christening to plan. "I have to go now but I don't want to leave my three babies or you." I smiled at the fact she still referred to Olivia and Meredith as her babies. Taylor picked Ethan up and started kissing his cheeks, causing his adorable giggling to echo through the room. "I'm going to miss him so much, make sure you take lots of pictures and lots of videos and send them me please Kar." I kissed her forehead before taking Ethan out of her arms, who started pulling at my hair. "I will but you'll be seeing us in two weeks. Go on go, Scott won't want you to be late for you flight. I will be okay, we both will be."

Taylor pulled me into her, before leaning in and giving me a passionate kiss, I didn't want it to end. I finally let her go, not turning back to see her leave the apartment because I knew the second I saw her at the door I would burst into tears. Taylor was gone, it was just myself, two grumpy cats and a baby until the tours finished.

Taylor's POV.
I just got on my private jet, I'm kicking the tour off in Japan in a few days. I don't know how I'm going to go two weeks without waking up in the middle of the night due to Ethan's cries, or how I'm going to cope without Karlie. It's been one rough, exhausting year and but throughout everything Karlie's been my rock. It seems like decades ago when I was sat on my bed in my lonely apartment, in agony over loving my best friend, who I never thought I could have. I remember the heart wrenching pain, every time I saw her with Josh how her smile would beam through the room, making everyone's day a little better. Of course now I know all those smiles were fake, hiding years of pain and abuse. Now you can see she's truly happy when she smiles. Despite my depression, self harm and suicide attempt, Karlie stayed and supported me through counselling, therapy and psychiatric help, even though she deserves much better than me. I can't believe a year on from all the heartache, all the pain and all the lies.. that my best friend, who I was scared to admit my feelings for is now my wife, and that we now have our own little dysfunctional family. Stay, it's a funny sort of word, you never expect someone in reality to stay with you. Because life isn't a fairy tale, life is hard and tough and love isn't easy. The definition of the word stay is, continuing or remaining in a place or state; it makes it sound like staying is some sort of chore, but it honestly isn't. We stayed together, and that's all I could ever want.

A/N: Last chapter guys and no they will not be a epilogue because the sequel. This chapter might be a little bit of a let down and no amount of comment will change my mind because I know it's a crappy short ending, but it's because one I have no more ideas for Stay but I do for the sequel and two, I'm excited to start my sequel; stolen kisses, pretty lies.

So I am apologising one for the shortness of this chapter and how terrible it it. Two that I am ending Stay. I truly loved everyone of your comments, and appreciated every vote on my very first fanfiction. I love you all💙
