Mel's p.o.v.

"Good morning sunshine! You had a good sleep?" Jason asked when I walked into the kitchen area.

"Actually yeah, I did have a good sleep." I answered him.

"Maybe some sweet dreams about someone special?" He teased.

"No. You know I don't dream much Jason. And if I dream, it's about food."

"Yeah, I remember. That one time you dreamed about that chocolate you screamed so loud the whole apartment building was worried." I chuckled at this. Yes, it's true but it was a very scary dream, we ran out of chocolate. That's a real nightmare.

"So, are we doing something useful today?" I asked Jason while pouring some milk on my cereals.

"I need to go somewhere, arrange something with someone." Jason answered.

"So mysterious Jason. What's with the 'some'? Somewhere, something, someone."

"It's some sort of surprise." Jason said.

"For whom?" I asked.

"Someone." Jason answered with a smile on his face.

"Jason! Stop it!"

"Noooo!" He yelled while running towards his room. I sighed. Why am I even friends with him. He's just like a toddler.

So I was alone today. Just great, gives me some time to clean up this place and maybe go to the park to take some photos. Just enjoy this free day without Jason, without anyone. Or maybe I could finally visit that one person who's always too busy to meet up, my big brother.

Chris' p.o.v.

"So when are you asking her for tonight?" Sebastian asked from my couch. I still have no idea how he got in my house again, I double checked every window last night and still he manages to get in here. It's not that I really mind him being here but it just gives me the creeps.

"I don't know Seb. It's not that easy." I answered him.

"Not that easy... Come on Chris!" Seb said and threw a pillow at me.

"Hey!" I exclaimed while catching the flying pillow and throwing it back to Seb in one fluent motion.

"Thud" right in his face.

"You just make things complicated Chris!" Seb said.

"I don't want to talk about it now. I'm just going with Dodger for a walk." I said.

"Great!" Sebastian smiled while standing up from the couch. I know what he's thinking.

"ALONE!" I added quickly.

"That's mean, you know?" Seb said while letting him fall back onto my couch.

"I know, I'm a real 'mean guy'."

The park is really one of my favorite places to go. Just enjoying the walk with Dodger, enjoying the sun that burns on my skin. Just relax for some time and forget all your problems. It's not only me who enjoys the park, Dodger loves it. Especially the children in the park, he always wants to go and play with them. I always have to hold him down or he would just run off.

I still haven't figured out why he does that, maybe he just loves children. Either way, it's sometimes annoying. Always apologizing to the people but they somehow forget what happened when they see it's me. An advantage of being famous, I guess.

Mel's p.o.v.

"Aunt Mel!" I heard an enthusiastic voice yell.
I just managed to close the door behind me before a little 6 year old jumped right in my arms.

"Uurgghhh...you're getting heavy Dylan!" I said.

"I'm not getting heavy, I'm getting big!" He replied.

"You sure do buddy!" I said while placing him back on his feet. Dylan is just like a ray of sunshine, always happy even though the circumstances aren't the best. "Where's your daddy?" I asked, already knowing the answer.

"He's in the kitchen!" Dylan told me and started walking towards the kitchen assuming I'd follow him. I just smiled at him as he walked away in his little iron man pajamas. Oh yeah, he's a Marvel fan. You have to thank Jason for that, I just left him alone one afternoon with Dylan and it happened.

When we walked into the kitchen I saw my brother doing what he always does, working.

"Daddy! Aunt Mel is here!" Dylan exclaimed happily, I know he likes it when I'm here.

My brother looked up from his laptop and smiled softly. "Hey Mel, how are?" I could see the dark around his eyes confirming what I feared.

"Better than you are doing Harry." I told him. "Dylan, why don't you get dressed. I'm taking you out to the park."

"Yeah!" He exclaimed happily. "Can I wear my new Hulk T-shirt I got from daddy?"

"Of course you can!" He was so pleased with my answer. "Now we need to talk." I said in my serious voice, pointing at Harry.

Harry sighed. "I know Mel, I know."

"I know you had a hard time since Val left you with Dylan but..." He cut me off.

"But what Mel! I messed up, I know! I'm a worthless father and Dylan deserves better, I know!" Harry yelled. He placed his hands before his eyes and let out a heavy sigh.

"It's not just your fault. You're not the one that left. I know you're doing your best to give Dylan everything he needs but what he really needs is you. He needs you Harry." I said while placing my hands on his shoulders.

"I'm ready aunt Mel!" I heard a joyful voice coming down the stairs. "What do you think of my T-shirt?" He stood there proudly showing his new hulk piece of clothing.

"It's really beautiful! Come on, say bye to daddy so we can go to the park."

"Bye daddy!" He said standing next to Harry. Dylan gave his daddy a quick kiss on his cheek and walked towards me. He's such a cutie. I hope my children will be just as cute.

On our way to the park Dylan kept talking about the new toys he got from Harry. My brother really knows how to spoil his son. But I honestly think Dylan would be much more happy when he just got to spend some time with his father. He kept on rambling about his iron man action figures and his captain America shield. I smiled thinking about how I met the actors portraying these characters in real life.

Once we got in the park we walked around for a bit until we found a great spot in the shadow under a tree. I closed my eyes for a bit and sighed happily.

"Look aunt Mel! What a cute doggy!" Dylan exclaimed. A dog? I opened my eyes and indeed there was a dog standing next to Dylan.

"Hey cutie! Where's your owner?"
