Chapter1
*Alli's Perspective*
I sighed as I watched the small toddler throw toys all over the floor,making as
much noise as possible. "Max,come here!" I called closing my text book. "I
sorry" Max replied wobbling over to me. Max looked just like his father,dark
brown hair and gorgeous eyes. "It's okay Maxy,but can you be a little quieter?
I'm trying to study." I asked sitting him on my lap. "When's daddy coming home?"
Max asked looking up at me. "Soon,in about a week or so. You miss him don't
you?" I asked looking at Max sadly. He sighed,nodding. "He'll be home soon
Maxy,I promise! Now go play,but be quiet so I can study. Max wobbled off of my
lap and ran over to where all of his toys were. Opening the large textbook I
suddenly became worried. What if I didn't pass? I would have to completely
retake this course. I was on my fourth year of school and this was the last test
before I would be completely done and have my degree. "Can I have ice cream?"
Max asked poking me,taking me out of my thoughts. "You're going to be eating
dinner soon,after dinner you can eat ice cream" I replied,before going back to
the book I knew I had to read.
*Keaton's Perspective*
"Two more shows until I'm back home" I smirked into the phone. "Thank god I
don't think I could go any longer without seeing you Keats" Alli's sweet voice
sighed through the phone. Just hearing her voice made my heart flutter. To be
honest,it was hard to be away from her for this long. The boys and I have been
on three tours so far,this being the fourth and hopefully the last. "How was
your day?" I asked hopping into the hotel bed. Not being able to sleep next to
Alli was the worst,and I knew she had a tough time sleeping through the night.
She had developed nightmares. She often calls me in the middle of the night
crying,but I just try to calm her down since I can't physically be there with
her.
"Tiring,Max was extra hyper today and I had to study" she sighed. Max was beyond
adorable,and I missed him. "Well Cece has him now right?" I asked. "Mmhm" she
confirmed. "How about you get into bed,cuddle into the blankets and I'll sing to
you?" I offered feeling pain that I couldn't be there with her. "Sounds perfect"
she mumbled. I began singing to her,until I heard light snores over the phone.
"Goodnight my love" I whispered before hanging up and falling into a deep sleep.
"Auntie Alli" Max's voice whispered waking me out of my light sleep. "What are
you doing up Max?" I asked sitting up and rubbing my eyes. "I can't sleep,can I
sleep with you?" He asked climbing into bed with me. "Where's your mother?" I
asked confused that he was with me. "She's sleeping,she has work tomorrow I
