[ surprise bitches w/ a kinda double update ]

Luke Hemmings

Before I could say anything the small boy wrapped his arms around me tightly and gave me a huge hug.

He stayed like that for a while before pulling away. His eyes wandered down to his toes and he fidgeted with his fingers nervously it looked like.

"Look Lu, I really just want to apologise for what I did... I shouldn't have. You're engaged and I should respect that." His eyes stayed down, "I really miss having you around as a friend and someone to talk too."

"I missed you too," Was all I could say to the small boy.

His gaze was then raised to my eye level and he nodded, "What about my apology?"

"Right, my bad. I do accept your apology." I rubbed my temple and nodded my head, "Do you by chance want to come in?"

"I only have 20 more minutes before I need to head back to work but sure," He smiled slightly and walked into the apartment closing the door behind him, "I've been thinking about names, that is if you want to talk about names yet."

"No, No, I do want to talk about names now. I'm sorry about me being stupid about it before."

"It wasn't stupid, I understand." He nodded and then took a small notebook out of his pocket, "Anyways I have a few names that I thought were cute picked out and you can look down the list if you would like."

He opened up the notebook to a list of names and passed it off to me, "If you don't like them tell me and we can think of something else.

I stared looking down the list of names; Alex, Alfie, Caleb, Noah, Mason, none were really popping out to me.

Until I came across the last few; Ethan, Carter and Jayden. Sure they were "basic" names but those just really stood out to me for some reason.

"So I'm torn between Ethan, Carter, and Jayden." I looked at the yet again nervous brunette.

"Are you sure?"

"If you don't like the choices then you can pick something else it's fine." I gave him back the notebook.

"No, No, that's not what i meant like you're positive on those names? You like them?"

"Yeah of course, I think Ethan would be totally adorable though," I smiled at him again.

"Ethan Carter Irwin?" He then said and I nodded as a response, "Then we got ourselves a name for the baby."

"Perfect." I said before a silence fell upon us.

"I can't wait for little Ethan to be born, he's going to have the best child hood even though his parents aren't together."

"We don't have to make it seem that way?"

"And how would we do that? You have a fiancé it's not like you can just move in. If you were single you could."

"Her and I haven't been on the best of terms lately." I sighed, "That's why she's not here again."

"Maybe see someone? Go to couples therapy? I think that's what it's called, but it helps a lot of relationship out." He suggested, "I don't want you guys falling apart, she seems very sweet."

"She is really sweet. I just don't see what happened. We've been fine for these past few years." I said sadly, "And it sucks because her and I have a baby too."

"Try the therapy then," He patted my leg and then stood up, "But I need to get to work now or else my boss will have my ass."

I nodded and walked him out to the door, "I'll see you later yeah?"

"Of course, Ill text you later." He smiled and gave me a quick hug before leaving.

After I closed the door behind him, i pulled out my labtop and began researching couple therapy doctors.

After hours of looking at reviews and trying to find ones nearby, I scheduled an appointment for Arzaylea and I.

Hopefully this fixes everything... Hopefully.
