Leah's POV:
"Leah, honey? What's wrong?"
"N-nothing." I say almost to reassure myself.
"Okay. I'm gonna go give Sammy and Greg a bath. Dad and Chad are going to the football game, so why don't you go lay down?"
"Sounds great." I smile and walk to my room.
"Mummy?"
"Yes baby?"
"Thank you for my birfday." Greg says and smiles, his teeth coming in slowly.
"You're welcome." I say and pick him up, kissing his forehead.
"You going to sleep?" He asks and his blue eyes stare into mine.
"Yep. Mummy's tired." I say.
Because I was. Tired of this. The drama. The constant bullshit that was happening. Not being able to sleep because I was scared I would get another thing added to my list. Tired of not being happy.
"Go to grandma Maddie." I say and kiss his cheek before setting him down.
He ran off so I took this as my chance to lay down.
I got underneath the covers and put my head on the pillow.
I heard the door open and see Chad walk in.
"Oh, you're not sleeping?" He asks.
"No. Not yet anyway." I laugh quietly.
He smiles at me and climbs over me, his body exactly over mine.
"Well, sleep good?" he asks quietly and kisses me.
I kissed back and pulled him down on me, his body closer to mine. I granted access to slip his tongue in my mouth when he asked for it.
His hand cupped my bum and I smiled then bit his lip, pulling away.
"I love you." I whisper and smile.
"I love you too. Ya know, our wedding needs to be planned."
I moaned, "I knowwww"
He chuckles quietly and pecks my lips.
"I seriously love you." He smiles.
"I seriously love you."
He winks and kisses me once more before getting up and getting changed.
"Damn, that ass." I laugh and he flips me off.
I turn so he can get dressed and my eyes start to close slightly, but I know I won't fall asleep.
My mind is running through so many fucking topics it hurts.
"Leah?"
I turn my body slightly to look at my fiancé.
"Yes?"
"Don't dream about me too much. I'll be home around 7. Sleep good baby. I love you." He smiles at me.
"I love you too, and don't worry, I won't dream about your ass." i giggle.
"Take it back."
"Mmm, no." I laugh.
"I love you dork. I got to go. Your father is waiting for me."
"Bye loser."
"Bye." He laughs and shuts the door.
I sigh and lay my head back on the pillow, thinking of the last time I had a good night sleep.
Then, after about 5 minutes, I was out.

"I don't want a baby brother."
"Why not?"
"Because baby's are stupid." I complain to my teacher.
"Baby's are a gift from god." She reminds me.
"I know."
"Leah?"
"Yes Mrs. Shary?"
"Remember one thing, don't ever, ever regret something."
"What does regret mean?" I ask.
"It means like, lets say your mummy makes a bad choice, she regrets doing it. Like she wish she never did it."
"Does daddy regret me?"
"Of course he doesn't."
"Then, why does daddy always leave?" I whisper and she looks at me with a sad expression.
"Your daddy loves you. he will always love you."
"Then why doesn't daddy show it? You told us that you can only say things? You have to show them?"
"You're a smart girl, Leah." She giggles, "daddy does love you. And I'm sure he tries to show it."
"Then why did daddy go to the Army? Why hasn't daddy came back? Did I make daddy mad?"
"No honey. You didn't."
"That what did i do?" I ask and tears fall.
'You did nothing honey. Your daddy Is alive wherever he is, and he's thinking of you at this moment."

Why was she disappearing?

"Hello Leah."
"Connor?"
"Remember our deal?"



I wake up and I'm breathing heavily.
What the hell kind of dream was that?
Who was Teacher Shary?
And why did I have a dream of talking to her??

I pulled the blankets off me and saw it was only 6:00.
Well, a 2 our nap isn't bad.
I walked into the guest room and see shes playing with Sammy and Greg.
Her baby bump is bigger as shes happy to be pregnant, again.
"Hey." I say and she looks at me.
"Hi." She smiles and I sit next to her.
"How'd you sleep?"
"I had a weird dream." I say.
"Really? About what?"
"Well; my teacher, Shary? She was in there and I was talking to her. Asking her why daddy left. Asking her if dad regretted me and why couldn't he show me he loved me. it was SO weird."
"Really? Maybe a flashback?"
"Probably. But mum, I got to tell you something."
"What is it babe?"
"I made a deal... A deal with Connor. Your ex."
