Ashton's POV:
I was laid wide awake at 6am with a massive smile on my face. I kept thinking back to last night...I wasn't as drunk as Summer, I remember exactly what happened. I still feel the touch of her lips on mine, the way she tasted of rosé wine that she had been drinking, her long brown hair reaching my lap so I'm able to play with it while kissing her.
After it happened, we laid there together and when I looked down I could see she had fallen asleep so I carefully picked her up and took her to bed. I placed two paracetamols on her bedside table with a glass of water...her head is gunna hurt today.

I lie there laughing when Rosie walks sleepily into the room I was in. She takes a while to notice me but when she does she greets me a smile but with a confused look on her face.
"Ashy? Did you and mummy have a sleepover last night?" She asks sitting beside me. "Something like that yeah." I laugh. "Shall I make you some breakfast?" I offer. She nods, turning on Cartoon Network. "Toast with Jam please Ashy" she asks. I smile and slowly get up and walk towards the kitchen.

After making her toast, we snuggle together on the sofa and watch cartoons. This feels like the right moment. I need to tell her.
"Rosie?" I ask. She looks at me and smiles revealing the gaps in her teeth where they had fallen out. I turn the telly off. "While mummy's asleep, we need to have a talk." She nods, eating the final piece of her toast. "You see..." It took me a while to figure out how to tell her gently. "Um..you know how I'm mummy's friend Ashy?" She nods, look at me. "Well......um...it's a little more complicated than that. You see..." I pause for a second, biting my lip trying not to let the tears slip.
"I-I'm actually-I'm actually.....Daddy..Ashy" I say slowly, hoping she can understand. She looks at me for a while trying to work it out and then she smiles. "You're my daddy?" She asks. That's when I hear a voice from behind us. "You told her?!"
Uh oh.
