Robert's Pov

I felt my heart tear into a million tiny little pieces right there. Why would he do this to me? He's supposed to be my friend. I couldn't breath. I clenched my jaw as I saw his arm quickly come away from her waist, as If nothing had occurred right in front of my eyes. He stepped forward, putting out his hand to reach me, regret all over his face. "Rob" He spoke as I backed away. Suddenly, Hannah must of heard my name as she turned around and grinned ear to ear. "Daddy!" She yelled, squirming in Stacey's arms. Stacey reluctantly let her go and she started to crawl to me. She then stood up on her two feet and quickly stumbled over to my arms. My eyes widened, as did Mark and Stacey's. I bent down to eye level with her, stretching out my arms. A tear ran down my face as I saw my little girl walk to me for the first time. I missed her the most. My little girl. "Come on cuddle bug!" I said, a smile spread across my wet face. She giggled as she continued to move her little legs as fast as she could towards me. Finally, she got to me, running into my arms as I caught her. She looked at me and grabbed my nose. "Hownk" I laughed. "Honk" I said, squeezing her nose. I hugged her tightly, as I felt her little arms slide around my neck. "I mwiss you daddy" She said with teary eyes. I kissed her head and felt relief wash over me. "Oh, Hannah, I missed you too honey" I spoke through tears. Mark approached us and placed a hand on my shoulder. I glared at him, pulling my shoulder away from his grip. "She sure did miss you eh?" He said as I stood up, Hannah still in my arms. I looked at her and she was almost asleep. I mumbled a 'mhm' to him and started rubbing my little girl's back. Mark coughed, trying to remove Hannah from my arms. I looked at him coldly "What the hell do you think your doing?" I asked him and he smiled warily. "I, um, I just want my little-" I cut him off harshly. "If you even dare finish that sentence, then your toast" I warned, making him gulp. "Well Rob, you did piss off for 7 mo-" He stopped himself. "For 7 months..yeah, you don't think i'm bloody aware of that?" Mark rolled his eyes. "And I don't want a druggie to be close to my dau-" I cut him off again, raging. "Druggie? Druggie! Are you kidding me on Mark? You would shut that mouth of yours if you knew what was good for you! She is MY daughter, Hannah Is MY daughter!" I told him straight. "She's not even your biological daughter" He mumbled, not wanting me to hear. "Excuse me?" I exclaimed. "You really are digging a VERY deep hole for yourself buddy" I was beyond raging now. Stacey approached us. "Come on honey, lets go home" She said and Mark grunted, walking to the car. She came up to me and I slowly handed a sleeping Hannah to her, kissing her on the head. Stacey saw my state and sighed. "Do you have somewhere to stay?" She asked I nodded. "What? Oh, Um..No. I don't. I actually met Mark In LA and he brought me here" I said, motioning my hands. She smiled sadly, looking me up and down. All of a sudden, she grabbed me in for a tight hug. It felt so good. I missed this. I missed her. "What have you been up to? Hm?" She asked, sadly. I looked at the ground. "I. I'm so-so so-ry." I said through soft sobs, still staring intently at the ground. She nodded, pulling back and placed her finger under my chin, making me face her. "Robbie, you have nothing to be sorry about..I'm sorry. I'm so sorry that I blamed you for...for blaming you and.." I noticed a tear run down her cheek and she quickly wiped it away. "It's okay, we were..just in a rough patch. Right?" I asked and she smiled, looking at me, nodding. "Yeah...So! Come on" She said as she started to walk away. "Where are we going?" I asked her and she turned around, smiling. "Well. You need somewhere to stay. Don't you?" She asked. Smiling, i followed her to the black SUV. As I sat in, Mark glared at me. "What's your face staring at?" I said, cheekily. He mumbled something I did't quite catch. Stacey handed me Hannah, we met eyes for a moment and I felt my heart flutter. I looked away and strapped hannah into her car seat. I smiled as I watched her sleep for a moment. She remind me of myself, strangely enough. Stacey put the car in drive and we headed 'home'.

We arrived a half an hour later and Stacey asked me if I could get Hannah for her. I obeyed happily, reaching out to gently lift her. "No" Mark blurted out once Stacey went out the car. I raised a brow. "No what?" I asked and he came up to my face. "Don't think that you can just come into our lives again as If nothing happened. I know that your a druggie. But Stacey doesn't yet. I'm sure you don't want her to find out" He warned and I laughed. "Two words buddy. Fuck Off" I grabbed Hannah softly into my arms and stepped out of the car. He followed, raging. Stacey came back out and took Hannah, who stirred a little, looking at me. "Daddy" She stretched her arms out. I grabbed her hand in mine. "I'm here gorgeous, don't worry, i'm not going anywhere" I reassured her and kiss her little cheek. Stacey smiled at me. "I'll see you guys' in the house okay?" I nodded, looking at the house. I'm glad she stayed here. I missed this place. Taking a step foward, I felt a hand grab my arm tightly. "Just watch it" He warned and I laughed. "Yeah, okay" I continued to the front door and stepped in. It's good to be home again...well not exactly 'home' but.. I'll win Stacey's heart...One step at a time...
