Australia.

Carter's p.o.v

It's been a day since Lily came home in tears. She has been in her room ever since.

I walked upstairs to go talk to her. "Lils, baby? I want to talk to you." I said knocking on her door.

"It's opened." She said in a soft voice. I walked in, and saw her laying in her bed, tissues everywhere.

"Scoot over." I told her. I got under her covers, next to her, pulling her closer to me.

"Why did this happen? Why did he do this after everything we've done?" She cried.

"I don't know, baby. I really don't. And I never thought that he would ever do that," I told her as I played with her hair.

"But sometimes things happen for a reason. Bad things turn into good things. Just think of it this way, he isn't the one."

"It really hurts mom. He's been trying to call ever since yesterday." Lily explained.

"I know, babe. But you don't take shit from anyone. We can change your number if you want. You just need to work on getting over him." I said.

"Can we please change my number?" She asked me. "Of course. I love you so much, baby." I said hugging her.

"I love you too, mom." She said kissing my cheek. "Cheer up. We leave for Australia in 4 days." I told her.

"You're right, momma. I'm done being such a baby. I want to enjoy myself and have fun while you're on tour." She said smiling a bit.

"That's my girl." I said kissing her forehead. "Thanks for everything." She said standing up.

"Of course. Okay, I'm going to go downstairs, dinner is ready." I told her.

In 4 days, we are going to Australia. A few years ago, I released an entire album, and never did a tour or anything.

I am finally going on tour again. Our first stop; Australia. Even though my show isn't for three more weeks, we are going two weeks early so we can explore.

After Australia, New Zealand. I am so excited to be traveling the world with not only my husband, but my kids.

They will be seeing the world with me, exploring, and being there as I do what I love.

I am taking them out of public school, and having a tutor for them. We are going to be gone for a good year or two.

We all ate dinner, and cleaned up. I gave Paris and Casey a bath, before I put them to sleep.

I saw Lily in her room packing. I headed to mine and Bradley's room, and started packing.

Dylan has been such a joy. I love being around him, and so does everyone else.

I sat on Brad's lap, kissing his cheek. "I can't wait to travel and explore with you and the kids." He said kissing my cheek.

"Me neither. This is so exciting. I feel like I'm a teenager all over again." I lightly laughed.

"Well, you look like one. You haven't aged a bit." He smiled. "Oh, well thank you. You don't look that old either." I teased.
