ADDISON:
The next day we're all chilling indoors, I open my phone to see a post I've been tagged in, Teddy is asleep and the other boys are chatting and on fifa. Jack is next to me as I'm laying on him. I open the notification.

I throw my phone on the sofa next to me and get up running upstairs. I can't deal with that.

MASON:
Me and all the boys look over at where Ads was sitting. Jack looks really angry "Mase you might want to see this. Actually I'll show you all" we all head over to Jack who shows us the post. "Is he being fucking serious" I shout which causes Teddy to wake up. "Shit, Jack you alright with Ted, he'll probably need a feed. I should go to Ads." Jack nods picking Teddy up for a cuddle. "I'll do his bottle and bring in a fruit pouch Jack" Jordan says getting up to go to the kitchen. "Thanks boys I won't be too long" I say and as I'm walking out chilly says "Ads needs you, once little man is fed, we'll change him and take him to the park." I smile at them all thanking them.
I head upstairs with her phone in my hand.
As I reach the top of the stairs I can hear her sobbing, I open her bedroom door, running in to give her a cuddle. "Hey it's okay, I've got you" I say reassuring her for her to calm down. "The lads are feeding and changing Teddy and taking him to the park. I think they're taking a ball." She smiles, "they're amazing with him" I nod she sits up snuggling into me "my son is 1 next month, it's his first Christmas next month and his dad is cuddling up to the bitch who ruined everything the first time round" she says, all I can do is hug her and say "I'll be with you, we will give him the best first birthday and first Christmas. He's got a lot of uncles downstairs who will spoil him rotten, I know for a fact Jack and Jordan have already brought him gifts" she smiles at me.
"Was I in the wrong for being close with Jordan. Him and Jack are like my best friends, they're all like extra brothers" she says and I can't see her blame herself "no it's not your fault at all, you can be friends with the lads and not be sleeping with them. It was his fault and he's fucked it up this time. I'm not sure I can forgive him" she cries again then says "This is what I dreaded, you losing your best friend over it" I cuddle her and reply "what he's done and said are awful. You're my sister you always come first but I am going to call and find out what the fuck he's thinking" she looks at me "I'm going to have to do this pregnancy alone. People are already saying things so I've got to post it, before I have more news articles, even though no one believes me" seeing her like this breaks my heart. "You're never alone. You've got me plus a load more brothers on your side" she smiles.
"I love you all, but you're all teammates either in Chelsea or England so you need to be civil" I nod. "While you do your post, I'm gonna call Dec" I say walking downstairs. Luckily the lads just got back, "lads Ads has requested we all speak to Dec and become civil as one way or another we're teammates." I say to them and they all keep straight faces followed by responses of "Ill do it for Ads" Jack says and the boys agree, then Jordan says "I don't think he'd ever be civil with me, I'd like to talk to him to let him know nothing happened. But I'll try for Addi"
I ring Declan, I'm very surprised when he answers.
D-Hello..
M- I think we need to meet and talk.
D- If it's about Addison then I don't want to
M- No it's going to be all us boys as one way or another we're team mates for England or Chelsea plus we play against them in matches
D- You all chose Addison
M- don't start with choices. You went too far then had a nice sleep in bed with Lauren. I'm not meeting to sort you and Addison out. We're going to meet you be civil and friendly as us lads.
D- Fine, where?
M-Bens house, 40 minutes, your having a conversation with Jordan too.
D-Fuck that
M- you know better than anyone he's never been more than a friend to Addi. You know all that online is shit, but you took it as your way out of the relationship and took it to make you look less of a dick for leaving your wife.
D- I'll be at Bens in 40 minutes. 

"Lads you all heard that but why does him not denying that last bit really hurt me" they all nod knowing what I mean, they all look so angry hearing that. Then the door opens and Ads walks in. "At least I know now" she says and hugs me.

I did expect the hate comments, I didn't ever expect to be doing this as a single parent. As I walk into the front room I hear the end of Mase and Decs conversation, then it hits me, he knows I didn't get with Jordan but he wanted a way out. And this way he looked like the good guy. I'm hugging Mason, Teddy is crawling around his toys playing. "Me and the boys are heading to Bens. We're going to speak to Declan. Like you asked to make things civil for football." I nod and then say "actually could you take some of his stuff please" Mason nods, "we'll help you pack it up. So Me, Mase, Jack, Jordan and Ben head upstairs with Teddy. Mason writes to the boys on the group chat to meet at Bens.
I find his luggage bags and the boys all help me pack the stuff, soon the room looks a lot emptier. I pack his football stuff, feeling the tears burn my eyes. As I'm trying to fold it, Jack comes over and takes it out my hand. I smile gratefully. Soon it's all done and they head to Bens.
