Happily Ever After?

Chapter 11

Kamryn Kelly____________

It seemed like it had been forever since we'd had a cool, sunny day here in DC. So Niall and I decided to take advantage of this and take Kaylee and the dogs to the park.

I walked Pearl, Niall walked Flora, and Kaylee insisted on walking Charlie, as he was always so careful and staid right along with her.

"Daddy, look!" Kaylee pointed to the big yellow slide when we arrived. "Will you let me take Charlie down the slide this time?" Kaylee ran to Niall to hug his leg.

"No baby, Charlie doesn't like the slide." Niall shook his head.

I just giggled at the memory of Kaylee forcing Charlie down the slide with her.
The results weren't good!

"Boring!" Kaylee dropped Charlie's leash and ran to the playground.

Niall and I sat down on a bench near the playground, where Pearl and Charlie found a place in the shade and Flora rolled around in the grass by herself.

"This is nice." Niall looked at me.

"Yeah." I sighed looking at the sky "It's nice to finally get some nice weather!" I smile soaking up the sun.

I closed my eyes for a split second until I heard a scream. Not just any scream, my daughter's scream.
My eyes shot open and scanned the playground. A gasp involuntarily left my mouth when I spotted two kids fighting over a toy in the yard.

"Niall, is that Kaylee?" I lightly smack his chest to get his attention.

Niall squints his eyes at the two children. Without hesitation Niall got up and ran towards the kids tumbling on the ground. I followed in suit seeing another mother running towards the kids as well.

"Kaylee Marie Horan!" Niall grabbed Kaylee pulling her off the other girl.

"Daddy she stole my toy!" Kaylee squealed.

"One, that is not your toy! Two, we do not fight people!"

She seemed fine aside from the small scratch on her face and dust on her knees.
Oh, and a furious mother.

"Mommy she pushed me." I heard the other girl tell her mother.

"Did you push her back?" I turned around at the sound of the voice.

No.

I turned around to see the one and only, Hannah Miller. She hadn't changed one bit; her ginger hair stuck out as usual, her skin pale but catching the sun at the same time, and she always sported a confident smile. That's my long lost best friend.

"Hannah?" I said causing her head to shoot up.

"Kamryn?" I brought my hand to my arm rubbing it up and down.

"I- I'm sorry." I gestured to Kaylee.

"Wait, Kamryn Kelly?"
"Y-yeah."

Before I knew it Hannah embraced me in a hug.

"That's your kid?" Hannah pointed.
"Yeah."

"Hannah what the fuck?" My eyes widened at Niall's voice.

"Niall! Language!" I smacked his chest.
