Michael's POV

After rehearsing all morning, my brothers all left the club and I got stuck (yet again) putting everything away, whilst Joseph was giving me yet another lecture about how important this summer is for me and my brothers.

Once I'm all done I'm about to leave to go meet Leanne when I hear a familiar voice. "Uncle Michael!!!!" I turn around and see Yashi, Reby's son come running over. "Hey buddy!what are you doing here?" I smile giving him a hug. "He wanted to spend to time with his favourite uncle while mommy talks to Joseph" Reby hints walking over. "Uh, Uh.. I can't. Not today I have to go somewhere"

"He can go with you.... Please?? It's just for a few hours" she pleads "I can't.. I have to meet someone"

"Who?" She asks couriousily "um.. Nobody.. Just a friend" I mumble. "Finally!!! You took your time!" Joseph snaps at Reby, walking into the room. "I gotta go, I'll see you guys later" I say quickly and turn to leave. "Michael! get your ass back here boy!" Joseph snaps and I turn and face him. "Take the damn child with you!" He frowns pointing at Yashi. "Fine!" I sigh picking him up. I'm already late picking Leanne up for our date and now I've gotta show up with a kid!?... This is not the kind of date I had planned.

Leanne's POV

I'm sat at the breakfast bar talking to Paul and Steve comes into the room. "Michael stood you up? Doesn't surprise me" he shrugs "I did warn you he was a player"

"Actually, Michael's at rehearsals with his brothers and he already called me to say he was gonna be late" I smile through pursed lips. "Whatever" rolls his eyes "I'm gonna go. Unlike some I actually turn up for a date" he says sarcastically and leaves. "Just ignore him. He's just pissing his pants because Michael bruised his ego.. Again" Paul chuckles. "So what's happening with you and Michael anyway?"

"What do you mean?" I look at him confused. "Have you and him..." He looks at me wiggling his eyebrows and I shake my head "are you gonna?"

"I'm not sure. I want to, but..."

"Your nervous I get it. But just relax its always scary the first time because you have no clue what your doing or if the other person is enjoying it and..."

"Not helping" I chuckle. "But that's just it! You don't have be nervous about it, because all the other stuff you guys have been doing you both already know what the other likes and what buttons to press... Michael's pretty much got you all prepped up and ready for his D!" He shrugs smiling "your such a romantic" I giggle "that's why ya love me! I'm gonna go get ready for work. Have fun getting in on" he winks and heads upstairs.

A few moments later the door knocks and its Michael. "Hey, who's this?" I smile at the cute little boy he's holding "this is my nephew Yashi, We're kinda got stuck babysitting... I'm sorry"

"We?" I say jokingly raising and eyebrow. "I'm hungry... And bored" Yashi sighs. "Well how about we get some food then go to the beach?" I smile picking him up. "Your much prettier than uncle Michael's last girlfriend and you don't seem like a bitch" he smiles. "Well thank you" I giggle "Yashi!" Michael scolds him. "Just sayin" he shrugs.

"How long was I up there?" Paul walks in raising and eyebrow. "This is my nephew. Yashi" Michael explains. "Meeting the family! Things are getting serious" Paul chuckles and heads of to work.

Michael and I are sat on the beach making sandcastle with Yashi and it's really sweet seeing Michael playing with his nephew. He seems really good with kids and he has this cute playful side I haven't really seen before and I'm pretty sure Michael's enjoying making sandcastles way more than Yashi is. "I'm really sorry I messed up our date" Michael sighs "you didn't mess up, I've had a great time today" I smile reassuringly. "Our next date will be much more romantic I promise" he smiles and pecks my lips. "Ewww!!! Uncle Michael. You kissed a girl!!!" Yashi says with a look of disgust on his face. Making us chuckle slightly. Michael strokes the side of my face with his thumb and sighs contently "That's because I love her very much" he smiles looking into my eyes "I love you too" I smile back at him and he presses his lips softy against mine as Yashi stands arms folded, shaking his head at us in disapproval "ya'll are just nasty!!!"
