"I can't be with you" I said with tears starting to fall down my face

"W-what?" He stuttered out

"I can't be with you" I said again

"Yes, you can" He pleaded, "No" I said

"I just doesn't feel right" I said

"What do you mean? I know you want to be with me" He said "No, I don't know I just can't do this" I cried,

"I t-think I have to move out" I continued, "NO! no, please don't" He pleaded and took a step forward but I just took a step back,

"I'm, sleeping over at Maisie's tonight, and I'll have someone to pick up my stuff tomorrow" I said and quickly packed my bag with essentials and I walked right past Melanie who was still standing in the doorway.

The next day moves move my stuff out of Harry's apartment and after a month I found my own apartment.

Three years later......

I missed him, even though he cheated on me with Melanie he was still my best friend, and I missed him. I was headed to the doctors to get my check-up,

"Christine Williams, you're in room 23" I heard a nurse say, so I got up and walked in to room 23 and waited for the doctor,

"Chris" I heard from the doorway, "H-harry?" I asked looking at the doctor,

"Yeah" He smiled,

"You're a doctor now?" I asked surprised,

"Yeah, I always wanted to try it, so when you moved out I quit my job and took an education," He said and sat down in his chair,

"Wow" I said,

"Yeah, so you're here for a checkup, right?" He asked looking at his clipboard

"Yep" I smiled, "Great" he smiled.

"Well you're healthy" He smiled after he checked everything, "Good" I smiled and stood up and slipped on my jacket,

"Hey Chris?" He asked, "Yeah?" "Would you like to get coffee sometime?" He asked,

"I'd love to" I smiled.

"So, I work in my own little boutique down the street where I live" I said sipping my coffee,

"Wow, we both really made it far these past three years" He said, "Yeah" I said

"Harry I actually have to tell you something" I said looking down on my cup, "What is it?" He asked

"Please don't get mad" I begged "I won't" He smiled,

"Okay, but before I tell you, I was really confused and mad at you at the time, so I didn't tell you" I said "Okay..." He said furrowing his eyes.

"Okay" I sighed, "I have a two-year-old daughter" I sighed,

"W-what?" He stuttered "Did you cheat on me?" he asked getting angry,

"NO! I would never do that" I exclaimed,

"Then wha-"He started but seemed to understand afterwards, "Oh" He said

"I'm so sorry I didn't tell you, I just didn't want to see you at the time. But I promise that I would've told you at some point, I wasn't just going to not let you know you had a daughter" I said, and I could see tears forming in his eyes,

"I understand... I think. But can I maybe, see her?" he asked and looked at me with puppy eyes, "Of course" I smiled

"Really?" He asked looking extremely happy "Of course!" I chuckled,

"What's her name?" He asked "Darcy" I smiled and a tear rolled down his cheek,

"You named her that?" He asked,

"Yeah, I remembered you always talking about what you would name your first girl, and I also liked it so yeah" I chuckled,

"That's great, but where is she now?" He asked "She's over at Maisie's right now. If you want we could go right now" I smiled,

"Yes please" he said "Then let's go" I chuckled and we got up and walked out towards Maisie's apartment,

"Okay so, first of she knows who you are, I've been showing pictures of you since she was born" I smiled, "And second, even though she knows who you are, she's very shy" I continued

"Okay, I just want to see her" He smiled

We got to her apartment and knocked on her door, "Coming!" Maisie yelled from inside, "Hey Chri- Harry? What are you doing here?" She asked,

"I met him earlier today, and I told him about Darcy. He wants to meet her" I smiled,

"Okay, well come in" She said, not looking at Harry. She's still mad at him for what he did, so am I but it helped with Darcy.

"She's in the living room playing" She said and walked in to the kitchen,

"Are you ready?" I asked looking at Harry's nervous face, "Yeah" He gulped

"Darcy?" I asked in to the living room,

"Mom!" She yelled and got up from the floor running towards me,

"Hey sweetie" I smiled and picked her up, "I want you to meet someone" I smiled

"Who?" She asked, "Your dad" I said,

"Dad?" She asked obviously confused "Yeah. Harry?" I said and turned to him, seeing him with tears in his eyes,

"This is Darcy" I smiled, "Darcy this is you dad, do you remember him from the pictures?" I asked her,

"Hawy?" She asked "Yeah?" He asked and walked closer,

"Are you weally my dad?" She asked him "Yeah" He smiled and a tear or two fell down his face

"Daddy!" She yelled and opened her arms, so I handed her to him,

"I guess she's not shy after all" I chuckled seeing her hugging his neck, clinging on to him,

"I guess not" He smiled and looked at her sweetly,

"Are you and mommy back together?" She asked

"No" He said shaking his head but whispered something in her ear making her giggle,

"What?" I asked "Daddy loves you" She giggled and Harry's face went pale

"He does?" I asked and she nodded, so I went over and whispered in her ear,

"Mommy loves Daddy too" She smiled at Harry, and he looked over at me, "Really?" He asked

"Yeah" I smiled, and leaned up to kiss him,

"Ewww" Darcy said covering her eyes, making me and Harry chuckle.

"She's beautiful" He whispered caressing her cheek while she laid there sleeping in her bed,

"I know" I said, and looked at our beautiful daughter.

"Hey Chris?" He asked, "Yeah?" I asked looking at him.

"Marry me?"
