Teach me how to dougie

Sequel- chapter 2

Dougies p.o.v

"Why can't you just be a normal husband. A caring husband, who loves his wife and his children and hates not spending time with them? why can't you for once get up out of bed, or come home early from work just to spend a little time with the twins. you are missing out on so much of their life Doug. you know your little girl started walking last week, I told you about it, did you remember? no. Did you care? of course not. Dougie we need you, I need you, they need you. Alicia and Alfie are growing up fast and your missing it all. Come home, come home and stop hiding in a hotel drinking yourself into oblivion, because what good is that going to do? We need you, we miss you. Dougie your my husband, I love you with all my heart. Your their dad, they love you like your their one and only. Please do it for for our family. I love you."

I slowly processed every last word of the voicemail. Darcy sounded different, I hadn't heard this vulnerability from her before. Her voice sounded tired and sad. She sounded lost, she sounded exactly how I felt.

Why couldn't she see this is for the best. I just screw everything up. the twins are better without me. Darcy, my beautiful wife, she is so much more than I give her credit for. she deserves so much better, a better husband, a better father for her children. I can let her have that. I can at least do that for her. Me and Darcy just weren't meant to be.

Darcy's p.o.v.

I listened to the silence that was choking the room as I waiting for a phone to ring or a door to knock or even lock to click, anything that will indicate Dougie has come home. I was out of line the other day, exhaustion had just taken over me and I said things I didn't mean. Dougie left and stayed in a hotel and well now I need him back and I'm hoping he will come back, because if not I won't be able to cope on my own.

"Darcy?" A shaky voice startled me from behind. I turned to see a rough looking Dougie.

"Doug, you came home." I got up slowly and gave him a hug. I stood back awkwardly as the tension of past events strangled the air.

"I did, we need to talk. we both need to do the right thing. Darce, you know I love you more than anything in this world, don't you?"

I smiled like an idiot at doug, he finally gets how important we are.

"Doug, of course I do, and I feel the exact same about you. marriage can be hard, we both know that. everyone argues sometimes." Doug stepped closer to me and raised one of his fingers laying it up against my lips softly. signalling for me to be quiet. I looked up to see he had tears threatening to spill from his eyes. What was going on? Why was he crying?

"Darce, please babe, don't make this any harder, okay?" omg, realisation hit me like a bulldozer. no. I shook my head violently as tears to began to flood my eyes.

"No, Dougie please don't do this. I love you, what I said the other day, I didn't mean them, I was tired. I haven't been sleeping that's all, we will go on your with you. me, you and the twins. Our family. The Poynter's on tour. Please, don't leave me. We need you. I need you." his hand was no lay against my cheek, my hand cupped it keeping it there as I whimpered.

Dougie's face moved closer to mine as he looked deep into my eyes studying my pain. I looked back and could see just as much in his. "why are you doing this?" it came out as a soft, broken whisper, barely audible, yet screamed out my pain.

"If you love something, set it free." Dougies began. His voice even more broken than mine.

"If it comes back to you, it's your to keep." I followed. I sighed and began again.

"If it doesn't, it never was your's to begin with." we both said in sync.

"Doug, I'm already yours. You've lost me before remember. You don't need to leave again. please stay."

"I'm doing this for you, you deserve better than this. All we do is fight. We will sort out something concerning the kids. I will send money to your account. I hope you find someone that deserves you and who appreciates and loves you as much as I do."

"No, I don't want someone else, I don't want you to arrange visits for the twins and I sure as hell don't want your wages. what I want and what I need is for you to stay, for you to be my husband."

"I can't, to much as happen, to many people have been hurt. especially you, I can't stand by and hurt you again."

"Bullshit!"

"What?"

I couldn't contain it anymore, I couldn't just let him walk away because I was broken and couldn't say anything. I needed to stand up for myself. I need to be the girl he fell in love with.

"I said bullshit."

I had a smirk on my face. Me and Doug had an inside joke, if we or anyone else said bullshit while we were around he had to kiss me.

Dougie just stood there in disbelief. while I was getting impatient. "do I have to spell it out to you? or are you going to kiss me? because I'm waiting." with that dougie launched himself at me pushing me against the wall. his kiss was hungry and desperate. And his hands were wild and fast.
