~Aeron's P.O.V

I was still downstairs, on the couch, with Annabelle and Gopher.

Annabelle was laying across my lap with her head facing my stomach because she was singing one of Harry's new songs to Gavin. I didn't know if he could hear her from in my belly, but if he could, he knew his older sister had a lovely singing voice.

Anna has actually come to me several times, while Harry was away, to tell me that she wanted me to listen to her sing a song. Most of the time it was one of the boys' songs, but other times it was either Bruno Mars or Katy Perry. Some Emblem 3 was thrown in along with a splash of P!nk. I'd record her singing on my phone and post it to Twitter and send it to Harry.

A couple of days would go by and a few fans that actually really do like me would send me the link of her singing from Youtube, but I was the one who posted them in the first place. Nonetheless, I'd listen to the videos anyway. Shortly after the fans sending me the link, some well known celebrities began to tweet me.

The first one that I saw was from Miley Cyrus.

~@AeronLovesHS, I saw your daughter singing We Can't Stop. She's a natural. Get her noticed. She'd make it far.

A few hours after Miley had tweeted, Ashton Kutcher did the same.

~@AeronLovesHS, I've never seen a nine year old belt out Bruno Mars' It Will Rain. Anna could make it big.

Ellen Degeneres was the most popular woman on a talk show and when she tweeted I was exstatic.

~Nine year olds singing their father's music? I'd say she was a fan. A talented little girl, she is @AeronLovesHS.

Last but not least was Oprah.

~One talented little girl. She needs to be made national, if she isn't already. Such an angel @AeronLovesHS.

I want to get Anna noticed by a big name producer, but I'm worried that she wouldn't be able to handle the rejection because I know there would be plenty to come her way just judging by how old she was. She'd have a fit and break down.

Of course I'd be there to pick up the pieces and to make sure she'd still want to continue with singing. She's a determined little girl, so I know she wouldn't give up and would keep pushing to go to the next producer just for a shot. Her attitude is half of mine and half of Harry's.

No pain, no gain.

No matter how bad she gets picked on or let down, she'll bounce right back and fight for what she wants. It could take a few days, some odd months, maybe even a couple of years, but if he gets her dream to come true, I'll be proud of her.

I yawned and picked Anna up, bridal style and put Gopher on her stomach, taking the both of them upstairs and to her her bedroom. I layed her on the bed and Gopher whined, stepping off of her and onto a small pillow, circling a few times before comin to rest and nuzzled her face in her body.

I sat Anna up and took her shirt off, slipping a cami on her and changed her into a pair of pajama pants, lying her back and covered her up wth her blanket.

Leaning over, I kissed her forehead and turned to leave as her iPad started ringing. I picked it up and checked the time up in the right hand corner.

9:30.

The show must have ended a few minutes ago because Harry was calling to make good on his promise.

I tapped the screen and he popped up.

"Hey, love." He greets.

I smiled and waved at the screen, going to the door and cracked it, going down the hallway and to our bedroom.

"Hi."

"She's out, huh?"

I nodded and sat the iPad on my bed, walking to the corner and typed in the password to my laptop and called him on it. He answered and I turned Anna's tablet off.

"Yeah, she has been for a couple hours, now. Since you had to go to your show." I reply, going to the closet and stripped down to my bra and panties.

I grabbed a plain grey cashmere sweater and slipped it on, grabbing a pair of long purple tube socks and slid them up my legs. I turned the light out in my closet and crossed the room to grab Harry's black beanie from the bed post and finally was able to settle in the chair of the desk, in front of my laptop.

"Well, that's good. I'm glad she's alright after what's been going on the last few months."

"Me too. She's a lot more in tune with everything ever since Micheal tried snatching her up. Thank god he didn't or who knows what he would have done to her."

He shook his head.

"Let's not get into that."

I nodded my agreement.

"Well, I really miss you." I say.

"I miss you too, baby. I don't like being away from you or my babies."

I giggled and rubbed my stomach.

"Well, we don't like it when you're away."

"Don't worry. I'll be home in a few months time."

I nodded and yawned.

"You tired, love? I can let you go."

I shook my head.

"No, don't leave, but can you do me a favor?" I ask, laying my head down on my elbows.

It's been a few months since Harry's sang any song to put me to sleep and I really miss his voice at night, so it'd be nice to hear it again.

"Anything."

I looked at him.

"Sing me to sleep?"

He chuckled and nodded.

"Get on Anna's tablet and I will." He says.

"Alright, hold on." I say, grabbing it and called.

He answered and I turned the computer off, lying on the bed and propped it up on his side, so it was like he was actually lying here beside me.

I missed the warmth his nude body would give off whem he was near me. I missed the way he hugged me close and told me he loved me. The way he smells and the way he let me wear his clothes, even if he had to take them off.

I just really wish that he was here with me, so I could be calm and that I could feel at home and safer than I ever have been.

"What do you wanna hear?" He asked.

I thought a few seconds.

"Our song." I smile, lazily.

He grinned and nodded.

I pulled the blanket up to my chest and curled into it, waiting for his voice to take its toll.

"I'm gonna pick up the pieces and build a Lego House. If things go wrong, we can knock it own. My three words have two meanings. There's one thing on my mind. It's all for you. And it's dark in a cold December, but I've got you to keep me warm." He sings as my eyes got heavy.

His deep melodic voice soon did its job and I was out for the night, but before I fell asleep, I caught him say,

"Thank you for staying with me for so long. I love you so much, Aeron."
