Chapter Twenty One
Emma's POV

"Bradley it's time to wake up buddy" I say softly.

He slowly opens his eyes.

"Mummy?" He asks sleepily.

"Hey bud, we have to leave now" I say.

He nods sitting up in his fluffy onesie.

I help him put his uggs on.

"Go lay down on the couch well I get your sister" I say.

He sleepily nods and heads out to the living room.

I walk out of his room and down the hall into Ashley's room.

She was fast asleep.

I pick up her sleeping body and she stirs awake.

"Blanket" she whines.

I grab her big pink fluffy blanket and hand it to her.

I grab her uggs off her shoe rack and carry her into the living room.

"Bradley you ready buddy?" I ask.

He gets up nodding.

We head out to the car. Brad buckles himself in his car seat well I buckle Ashley.

"Mummy I'm cold, can you get me my blanket?" Bradley sleepily asks.

I nod.

"Okay just stay here" I say.

I shut the car doors and lock them heading back into the house.

I walk into Bradley's room grabbing his fluffy green blanket.

I walk through the kitchen grabbing my purse and the paper work before heading out the door.

I make sure to lock it behind me before heading back to the car.

I hand Bradley his blanket.

"You can go back to sleep buddy" I say.

He nods yawning.

I get into the drivers seat and start the hour and a half drive to the rehabilitation center.

*1 Hour and 45 Minutes Later*

"Mummy where are we?" Ashley asks as we walk towards the front doors of the rehabilitation center.

"We're getting daddy, he's doing better now" I say.

"Really!?" Le asks excitedly.

I smile and nod as we walk into the building.

*10 Minutes Later*

A door swings open down the hall and Ashton appears.

"Daddy!" Ashley squeals and runs towards him.

Bradley stands by my side.

Ashley jumps into Ashton arms and he hugs her tightly smiling.

He walks over to me.

"Hey" he says.

"Hey" I reply.

We stand their in an awkward silence.

"Mummy I'm hungry" Bradley says.

"Okay, we'll get some breakfast on the way home" I say.

"Okay" he yawns.

I look up at Ashton.

"Watch them I have to go sign your release papers" I say.

He nods.

"Mum can I come with you?" Bradley asks.

"Of course buddy" I smile.

He grabs my hand and we walk over to the front desk.

I begin signing a couple papers and the lady explain how Ash needs to take his meds everyday and come back in 4 months for a check up.

She added that if he begins to start old habits to call them or bring him back.

I nodded and he was free to leave.

*4 Hours Later*

"He's still mad at me isn't he" Ashton says sadly.

I look up at him.

"A little. It'll take him a while until he gets used to it. You were an ass for a while" I say.

"I'm really sorry Em" He frowns.

"I know you are" I reply.

"I fucked up bad, I regret it so much" he frowns.

"I fucking missed you" he says.

"I missed you too Ash" I almost whisper.

It's silent for a while before I speak up.

"Goodnight Ash" I say.

"Goodnight Emma" He replies.

I walk to my bedroom and Ash to the guest room.

I frown wishing he followed me into our room. I really have missed him. I miss him holding me in his arms at night, I miss him tracing shapes on my back and hip with his fingers. But most of all I miss his I love you's.

Even when he was being an asshole he never ever went a day without saying he loved me. Even it was a simple text or a short voicemail. He always said it every night. I miss that.

I frown laying down in bed.

I plug my phone in and close my eyes.

Just as I'm about to fall asleep my phone dings and I pick it up to check it.

Fr: Ashton
I will always love you, no matter what.

A smile finds its way to my face as my eyes become heavy and I drift to sleep.
