"Daddy no, don't leave!" Aria screamed from her crib, on her knees

"Baby I have to leave, i'll be back I promise. Just for you baby girl!" Will said kissing his fingers and pointing them at Aria

"Bye bye daddy." Aria said, with tears dripping from her little eyes

"Only for a little while." Will said picking up his suitcase, and walking out of Aria's room

"You ready?" I asked, looking up at him

"Yup, I got my plane ticket and i'm ready to go." Will said, bending down and kissing me on the lips.

"I love you." I said, and then watched Will walk out the door, "And don't forget to bring back Kaitlyn!"

Will had shut the door and left. I had tears running down my face, as I saw him pull out the drive way, and drive off down the road. I knew he would only be gone for 5 days. But in this house, 5 days is really long. Especially when it's someone that you love. Or that you're going to get married to soon.

I walked up stairs to Aria's room, and took her out of her crib. Being now, 11 months old, she knew how to talk.

"When is Daddy going to be home?" him.Aria asked

"In 5 days baby. And he's going to bring Kaitlyn back with him!" I said blowing a hair away from Aria's face.

"Yaay Kaitlyn!" she said clapping her hands.

"Yup, so what do you want for a snack? Apple sauce, or yogurt?" I asked

"Yogurt!!!" Aria said with a big cheeky smile

"So I see my baby girl is having yogurt." My dad said taking the yogurt from me and handing it to Aria.

"Ya!" Aria said

My dad got a glass from the cabinet, and poured some apple juice in it, and brought it up to his mouth.

"Grampa?" Aria said

"Yes Aria?" my dad said putting his glass down.

"Can I have some affle juice?" Aria said, not being able to pronounce "apple"

"Only if you can say aPPle." my dad said emphasizing the "p's"  

"Apple." Aria said then smiled

"Good girl." my dad said, closing the lid to the sippy cup, "Here you go my lovely."

When Aria finished her yogurt, we went into the living room and talked a little bit, while Aria played on the iPad.

"So when is Will coming back?" My dad asked drinking more of his apple juice

" Wednesday." I said looking at Aria.

"What is he doing there?" my dad asked gripping his hands together.

"He's visiting his mom and dad, and then bringing back Kaitlyn for a month." I said lifting up Aria who still had the iPad in her hands

"Are you excited to see Kaitlyn again?" my dad asked

"Yeah, I haven't seen her since Aria was born." I said

"Are you excited to see Kaitlyn, Aria?" my dad asked playing with her arms

"KAITLYNNNNNNNN!" Aria screamed, getting drool on my dad's forehead, "Oops, sowwy."

"That's okay." My dad said, whipping off the drool with Aria's shirt

"Say ewww grampa!" I said to Aria talking in my baby voice

"Ewww." Aria said, then both me and my dad laughed.

"So do you want to go play in the waterpark?" My dad asked, taking Aria from me

"Yeah, let's go!" I said getting the iPad and taking it upstairs, with my dad and Aria following behind.

We took Aria into the waterpark, and had a bunch of fun, but I was still missing Will. I haven't heard much from him, at all! I was getting worried.

After dinner I had called Will to see if he had gotten there, and he had. He said he loved me very much, and he might be coming home earlier than he had expected.

I was glad for him to be home earlier, and I was really excited I could see Kaitlyn also!

                                                                     *2 days later*

"Hey Aria, daddy is coming home!" I said tickling her stomach

"Daddy!" Aria said, "Oh, and Kaitlyn!"

"Yes." I said, rolling my eyes, "And Kaitlyn."

I handed Aria to my mum as I pulled out my phone out of my pocket. Kaitlyn was calling, probably to tell me that she was taking off.

*Le Conversation*

D-hello?

K- umm, isn't Will suppose to pick me up at 6:30?

D- yeah, he isn't there?

K-No and i'm going to miss my flight!

D-Just go to the airport, and i'll call Will and see what's going on, have a safe flight, Aria is excited to see you!

K-Ok, tell her I love her, and i'll be there soon.

D-Ok bye

*End*

"Who was that?" my mum asked

"Kaitlyn." I said with a strange look, "Will isn't there to pick her up."

"Hmmm, well call him and see what's up." My mum said

*Le conversation with Will*

*ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring- to voicemail!*

(Calling again)

*ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring- to voicemail!*

(called 3 more times, still the same response)

"Are you serious? Thanks for answering the phone!" I yelled at my phone in a sarcastic tone

"Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad!" I yelled

"Darcy i'm right here." my dad said walking into my room

"Will won't answer his phone." I said franticly stressing

"His phone is probably dead." my dad said, "Calm down. Try calling his mum and dad."

"I did! and they said that Will had already left for the airport in a taxi." I said starting to cry.

"Darcy, ummm, have his parents call the taxi place." he said franticly trying to find a solution.

"You can't! It's a taxi service! Dad, Will, my fiancé, Is missing!" I said
