Ellie's POV - 1 month later

It's been a whole month since all the drama happened and I broke up with Jaime, I haven't seen or heard from him ever since. It's been weird not having him around but he brought this all on himself with cheating on me with his slutty ex girlfriend so it's his fault all of this has happened not mine.

I'm actually with Alex now, not that its surprising. He's helped me with Megan and he's just been really great but if I'm honest he's just not.. Jaime. It's been really hard for Megan not seeing her dad for a month but she's been having a lot of fun with Alex to distract her from thinking about him. Her and Alex get along really well, she has fun with him and as long as she's happy, I am. For the whole month all I can think about is Jaime, I know I shouldn't because all this was his fault and I shouldn't miss him but I do, I still love him but I'm with Alex now, but I guess things happen for a reason.

"Mummy can we go to he park?" Megan asked.

"Of course sweetie, if put your shoes on then I'll take you" I smiled. Her face lit up like a kid on Christmas morning and she ran to the hallway to put her shoes on. I followed behind her and put my shoes on as well. When we were both all ready we left the house and headed to the park down the street.

When we got there Megan sprinted off to the climbing frame, I just sat on the nearby bench that I always sit on and just watched her have a good time. I watched her play with other little kids about her age, she's not afraid to talk to strangers or make friends, I wish I had her confidence.. She got all her confidence from Jaime for sure. I pulled my phone out and started to text Josh who I haven't seen in a while.

Me: hey bud, need to see you soon miss you loads x

I pressed send and put my phone back in my pocket. I was minding my own business when I felt someone sit next to me on the bench. I looked over and my throat hitched, it was Jaime.

"What are you doing here?" I asked calmly.

"I saw you here as I walked past, I just wanted to see you both" He said with a slight smile. That smile would always make me melt.

"Megan misses you a lot" I shrugged and looking down at my feet like it was nothing, which was stupid because it did mean something, his little girl misses her daddy. Then there was a bit of silence between us because neither of us really knew what to say to each other.

"I am sorry you know" He said breaking the silence. I just sighed and looked up at him.

"I know you are Jaime" was all I said, I truly believed that he was sorry but I couldn't just forgive him that easily.

"I miss you Ellie, I know I really screwed us up" He said in a sad tone.

"Yes you did Jaime, but you can't just assume that if you say sorry then I'll forgive you that easily, it doesn't work that way and I'm with Alex now anyway" I said. He looked devastated when I added the part about Alex.

"I do hope you're happy with him and I mean it, all I want is for you and Megan to be happy" He said and he sounded like he genuinely meant it which made me want to pulled him in a hug so bad but I couldn't, "can I just see Megan for a bit, I do miss her?" He added. I nodded and shouted Megan's name. Her head snapped looking at us and as soon as she saw Jaime her face lit up and she instantly started running towards him.

"DADDY!!" She screamed and tackled him into a hug. He picked her up in his arms and hugged her tightly.

"Hey princess, I've missed you a lot" He said.

"I've missed you too daddy" she replied. This was a cute father daughter moment that I didn't want to ruin so I sat there silently and just watched them contently.
