                     'Daddy, push me higher!' I screamed swinging my legs.

My mother laughed behind the camera and pointed it towards my father who was grinning from ear to ear.

'Anything for you princess' he says pushing me higher and i giggling shaking my head.

'Mikey, Mikey! Look Mummy and Daddy bought my a dolly today!' I shout jumping off the swibfset towards Michael.

'Well i don't care cause my mummy bought me a truck!' he says pouting and i giggle.

'My dolly can ride in the truck, come on Mikey!' I say running across the garden.

My mother laughs turning the camera towards Michaels mum who is watchig us in awe and she then turns it around to face herself with a smile.

'We love you baby' She says before kissing the lense and turning it off.

'Watching old videos?' Ash says joining me in my room.

I nod wiping my tears, 'I love watching them, not just because of me and Michael but i see them. Smiling they were happy, they loved me Ash. I loved them too.' I tell him and he nods sitting next to and kissing my forhead.

He wraps his arms around me as a sob quietly. 'Its okay to cry you know? They were your parents, you dont have to keep it all inside.' He says and I nod sniffling.

'Its not something that can be fixed. And when it happened i locked myself away for so long i cant do it again.' I sighed and he nodded kissing my head lightly.

'Michael acts like the tough guy, but he misses them too.' I say wiping my eyes, and we sit there in silence, watching the next video where me and Michael popped up on the screen.

We both laughed, and cried at points but it was nice. It was comfortable, I could tell Ashton enjoyed seeing me and Michael as kids, we were very adventerous kids. But i think he enjoyed mostly seeing m parents, he hadnt met them, and it was nice he could see them, even if they couldnt talk, he knew and they knew.

'Hey the boys are he-' Michael shouts joining us in the bedroom, before laughing. 'What am i wearing?' He asks before chuckling and sitting on the edge of the bed.

Calum and Luke join us and Calum laughs pointing at the screen. 'What is that Michael!?' he says hiccuping and I join in the laughter. 'I forced him to wear one of m fairy outfits' I tell them and they all burst out laughing.

'cute Michael' Ash says and Michael gladly flags him off smirking.

I laugh and look over at the bos before sighing, 'Tomorrow, right?' I sa and they all look at each other frowning before nodding.

'Yeah, sorry' Luke mumbles and I nod. I look up at Ashton wh's avoiding my eye contact and I sigh faking a smile.

'Well, I can't wait to go back to the daycare.' i say and Calum smiles, 'You love it there don't you?' He says and I nod grinning.

Ashton forces a smile throwing an arm over my shoulder and saying 'Hey we'll be having kids of our own one day' I chuckle while the boys make gagging noises. I kiss his cheek and smile, agreeing.

'We should go it's getting late' Luke says staring at his phone, and I frown nodding. He coughs nodding before walking over to me sighing, 'Only a month without my beautiful face around, you can do that right?' he jokes giving me a hug and i nod laughing.

'I know as soon as you leave ou'll be skyping me so don't worry i won't be missing your face too much' I chuckle and he hugs me again before grabbing his jacket and nodding towards Calum.

 'That's me too then' Calum says before smiling cheekily at me and hugging me, 'Don't get too sad, time will catch up with us soon enough' he says and I nod forcing another smile. He quickl kisses my forhead before leaving with Luke.

'I'm off to bed, I'll see ou tomorrow Ash. Night' Michael says before nodding at us and leaving the room.

'One month baby' he mumbles kissing my forehead.

'One month' I repeat and sigh,  he frowns further before kissing me gently.

'Call me everyday?' He says and I smirk.

'Hmm I don't know..' I joke and he laughs kissing me again.

'I should go' he mumbles before kissing my lips again and I sigh.

'I don't want to see you go.' I mumble and he smiles.

'Then don't. Here, close your eyes' He says and I raise an eyebrow before shutting them and feeling his lips on mine.

I smile and he pulls away and I wait before opening my eyes to an empty room.

'I love you' I whisper before sighing again and crawling into bed.

'Why isn't prince charming here?' Layla asked me and knealt down to her height.

'Because he's busy learning how to ride his horses. But he'll be here one day' I tell her and squeels clapping.

'You want to get off early Laura?' Gina asks and I shrug and then nod.

'I might as well.' I say and say bye to some of the others before grabbing my jacket and walking home.

I rolled my eyes jingling with the keys in my hands trying to unlock the door while my phone rung repeatedly.

I groaned walking in the apartment and saw I had a missed call from Ashton.

I rung him back grinning and jumped on the sofa.

'Hey beautiful' he answered and I smiled laughing at the comment.

'Hey, good day?' I ask and he tells the boys to shut up before carrying on.

'Yeah, two days baby.' he says and I can imagine the grin on his face.

'I know I'm counting down the days' I remind him and he chuckles before talking to one of the boys.

'Sorry I have to go now babe, I'll ring you later' he says sighing and I nod smiling.

'Its okay, later yeah? Love you'

'I love you more beautiful' he replies before cancelling the call.

I smile sighing and walk over to the calendar crossing off another day before hearing my phone buzz on the sofa and noticing keek had notified me the boys uploaded a keek.

Instantly I clicked play, straight away seeing Ashton's face.

A- 'Hey guys!' he says before giggling. 'Hope you're all enjoying the tour we don't want to leave you all behind but-'

C- 'Ashton needs to see Laura so we kinda have to' he says winking at the camera.

A- 'hey,shut up! Well yeah but we're seeing our families too. Really missing home at the moment' he pouts and I smile before he says bye and it ends.

I sigh leaning my head against the wall. Wow I missed him, two days until i see him.

two days until I'm with him.

two days until I kiss him.

two days until he kisses me.

two days until things are perfect again.
