*Zoe*
Since me and Alfie made the videos explaining why we had been gone for so long we had been getting so much support but also a tiny little bit of hate. Me and Louise are still not talking. You guys may think it's pathetic but it is Lilly's favourite toy. Alfie has been arguing with his mum again. If I'm honest, i don't understand why she hates me so much. Is it because I did something wrong? Me and Alfie are both confused on why she hates me but to be perfectly honest my mind is set on me, Alfie and Lilly. "Mummy" "yes Lilly?" "When daddy back?" "He'll be back soon, why what's wrong baby girl?" Lilly started crying. "Hey Lilly what's wrong?" I picked her up and walked her over to my bed and gave her a hug. "What's wrong Lilly?" "Daddy was shouting last night" three nights Lilly had been crying and she wouldn't tell me or Alfie why. Now I know. It wasn't Lilly's fault or Alfie's fault or mine. It was his mothers fault. Then Alfie walked through the door. "Alfie?" "Yeah?" "Can you come in here please" Alfie walked into see Lilly playing on our bed but you could tell she had been crying. "Hey princess what's wrong?" "You was shouting last night". "Oh god" "how does she know zo?" "She heard you" "oh man" "look Lilly daddy's sorry you heard me shout last night" "it's ok daddy". Then we all walked into the living room. "I'm going to have to tell her she can't ring in the nights now" "Alfie not tonight, let Lilly have one night in peace" Alfie put his phone away and smiled at Lilly.

(Two weeks later. Lilly's in play group)
"Ready for today Lilly?" "YEAH!" I couldn't wait for today. Lilly was going to start playgroup for the first time. Obviously me and Zoe would go to the first few but once Lilly had settled down only one of us would have to stay with her. Lilly and Zoe went into the bedroom to get ready and changed while I made us some breakfast.
*Zoe*
I walked with Lilly in my arms. She was going to playgroup for the first time. I went into Lilly's wardrobe to see what was in there. It was pretty cold so I decided on a pair of white tights a brown skirt and a long sleeve tshirt with her light brown ugg boots. Once I changed Lilly I got changed into a pair of black leggings a white shirt and my pink jumper. I got Alfie a outfit out which was his white and black striped tshirt and a pair of jeans. Lilly ran down stairs to see Alfie.
*Alfie*
"Hello beautiful" "Hello daddy" "you come get ready daddy?" "Ok" Lilly pulled my hand and guided me towards the bedroom. I walked in to see Zoe putting the final touches to her lips with her lipstick. I looked down at the bed to see Lilly pointing at my clothes laid out on the bed. "Out then Lilly" "and mummy" me and Zoe just laughed. "Yeah mummy's going" Zoe got up and walked out with Lilly while I got changed. I walked out to see Zoe putting Lilly's coat on. "No mummy" "come on Lilly we're going to be late" "NO mummy!" "Lilly what's wrong?" "DADDY!" "She won't put her coat on" "Lilly, why won't you put your coat on?" "Daddy do it" so I put Lilly's coat on. I could see this had stressed Zoe out. "One second I forgot my purse Zoe ran back into the flat to grab Her purse while I put Lilly in the car. I went into the drivers seat to put my seatbelt on but then I noticed that Zoe couldn't shut the boot of the car. I got out to help her. I pulled the boot up and slammed it down. "Don't worry Zo it'll be fine" we walked back to the car and noticed that Lilly had got out of her seat. "I'll go in the back you drive" so Zoe went into the back of the car and out Lilly back in her seat while I drove the playgroup. *15 MINUTES LATER* Zoe got Lilly out of her seat and put her on her side and got out of the car. I walked around to the other side of the car and held Zoe's hand as we walked across the road to playgroup. "Hi there how can I help you?" "Hi we're here for the 10 'till 11:30 playgroup" "name please" "Lilly Deyes" "umm aahh yes you are early but go on in" we walked into playgroup for the first time. Zoe put Lilly down and Lilly ran off to play with a baby puppy in a pram. She pushed the pram towards us. "Daddy look!" "Oh wow Lilly" Lilly went towards Zoe then. "Mummy look!" "Aww that's a cute puppy" Lilly laughed and went off to play then. I moved closer to Zoe and sat next to her. "Hey Zo what's wrong?" "Umm nothing, why'd ya ask?" "Zoe you can't fool me what's up?" "Do you really want to know?" "Of course I do" "I'm worried Alf, about Lilly" "why what's happened?" "Nothing I'm just worried" "well don't be I'm here ok" "ok" she cuddled up to me while we watched Lilly make a friend we a little girl. "Zoe look" I pointed over the other side of the room to see Louise picking Darcy up from playing with Lilly. "No Darcy you can't play with her" we could see Lilly heard what Louise said and she started to cry.
*Zoe*
Lilly ran up to me crying. I picked her up and placed her on my lap. "Hey missy what's wrong?" She pointed over at Louise picking Darcy up. "She said I can't play with my friend" "aww don't worry baby, you'll make loads of new friends here" "Lilly do you wanna hug" Alfie put out his arms to give Lilly a hug and she jumped into his arms. I got up and walked up to Louise. "Louise, you have got to grow up. Lilly only wanted a friend and you have stopped her" "OMG Zoe me grow up look at you, your a pathetic little 23 year old mother who doesn't know how to look after her child tidily." Then Alfie came up behind me. "Actually Louise Zoe's a great mother and let me just remind you. Who was the one who looked after your child when you went out with Matt? Who bought things for your child at Christmas? Who was it Louise? It was Zoe. So how can you say that she's a bad mother when really she's had much more experience than you?" Me,Alfie and Lilly all walked away leaving Louise speechless. When we got home I had loads of notifications on my phone asking me if I was ok. I was really confused and someone had sent me a link so I clicked it and it revealed a video of the argument in playgroup. All the comments said things like "hope your ok Zoe x" or "OMG #ZALFIE MUCH?" I smiled as so many lovely comments were posted. I made a comment saying "Guys thank you all so much, your all so sweet xo". I absolutely loved my subscribers and fans but I mostly loved my family.
