One In A Million. (Sequel to Accidental, Ben Bruce fanfic) **SLOW UPDATES**

The Road.

Ben POV:

"But daddy, I don't want you to leave again. What if the big bad monster from under my bed gets me and you're not here to save me?" Alexis looked up at me with pleading eyes every second spent looking at her killed me a little inside. "Baby daddy has to go, he has to play rock shows for his massive family. I'll be home soon, I promise!" I was kneeling down in front of her with a duffel bag over my shoulder. Her eyes were watering and a tear escaped them. "I'll miss you daddy" she sniffed fighting back the tears that took over her chubby cheeks anyway. "I'll miss you too baby! I love you" She lept into my arms sobbing into my shoulder, I hated leaving Alexis behind. I swear if I ever find the person that says leaving them gets easier I will rip their heart out slowly to see how they feel about it. I stood up leaving Alex cuddling into her infamous Yoda teddy and walked over to Jasey. Pity and sympathy poured out of her features as she wiped away a stray tear from my eye. "She'll be okay, Ben. She loves you and its going to take her a while to get used to" she placed a small kiss on my forehead and looked back into my eyes. "I just wish it wasn't for two months. I keep missing all the good things about her growing up. I missed her first words, first step, everything" I've been on tour for the majority of Alexis' childhood and I miss the things that dads are supposed to be there for. "You're still there for her at the end of the day. You do your best to keep in touch, babe. Don't get down on yourself she doesn't love you any less, if anything she loves you more!"

The encouraging smile that was pressed on Jasey's lips was the only thing that gave me hope. I know how hard it is for her, she has her friends, yes; but she spends most of her time with Alexis. "What about you? Jase, it's two months" she lowered her head for a second, taking in a audible deep breath. "I'm going to be fine" she looked up at me with an unconvincing smile forced on her face. "Jasey..." I dropped my bag and pulled her closer to me. Her arms wrapped around my waist and mine around her shoulders. No matter how many times I leave for tour, it just get's more difficult. You'd think that you'd get used to it, leaving everything behind for a couple months, to pursue what you love to do. But the more you do it the harder it is. It's weird and you can't describe it, it's like you're constantly torn between doing right by your family and the ones you love back home, and doing right by your fans and who you love out on the road. It's a non stop battle between head and heart.

I watched as the world passed me by, trees, street signs and houses that I've never seen before. 4am and my mind is on the road. I should be used to this, I should love it, its my dream. I live my life like I've always wanted to. I just wish Jasey was here with me. Like how she used to come to a random show to surprise me and she'd stay for a while, those were the best times. "What are you doing awake?" I glanced over to the bunk door that had just opened to see James' silhouette standing against the frame. "I can't sleep" he sauntered over and sat across from me. My eyes went back out to the window, watching the world pass me by. "I miss Jasey" I admitted. Normally I don't dwell on leaving. It's always bound to happen, I just look forward to going back home and seeing them. But for some reason, I can't stop thinking about her. I can't stop smelling her on my clothes, missing the feel of her lips. "Yeah? That's understandable. If it helps, she misses you too" I glanced at him and shook my head slightly. "No not really." It didn't help. In fact in sort of made it worse. She misses me because I'm gone, if she feels what I'm feeling now, it just makes me feel like a horrible person. "I'm sorry, Ben. I really think you should try get some sleep. Or call her or something" I'd kill to hear her voice right now but, its late and she might be asleep. I'll text her so she gets it when she wakes up.

Me: Hey, babe. I miss you so much. Thinking about you a ton, can't wait to see your face again. I hope Alexis is okay, I love you more than you'll ever understand.<3

Jasey Bruce: I miss you too. I can't sleep, I need your arms around me to put me to sleep. Only 32 more days till I can kiss your face. We both love you soo much!<3

I surprised to get a reply as it was probably 3am where she is and she would normally be sleeping. But I smiled nonetheless. I never really thought I'd find someone to love as much as I loved her. I always thought that with the lifestyle I had, I would just have a string of one night stands and that'd be it. I never thought I'd feel this much for one person. She's makes my life so much better everyday. I have a family now and I never thought that I'd have one anytime soon. I wouldn't change them for the world.
