Stick by me (Complete)

It's been a tough couple of weeks, Perrie has been having more and more nightmares, meaning more and more bed wetting and also more and more sleepless nights. We have started potty training the twins and thankfully Taylor wanted to try as well, even though the twins are doing a better job which makes Taylor feel very excluded. Charlie is still getting bullied and we have debated home schooling but first we need to get past this funeral which is tomorrow . Sophie was coming over later to discuss some stuff, but we don't really know yet.

Also, me and Perrie have been talking, and since we both don't LOVE England, we were thinking of moving out to America. My mam lives in America and she hasn't had chance to meet the three new additions to the family. It will be nice having another set of hands to help. We've started looking at houses and we think we have found one we love...

It's big, simple and has 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, it is listed at 400,000 pounds but we have 1million in the bank, and still some money from my mum and Perrie's mum, not sure how but we do. We are pretty rich right now.

Sophie just came in with Alex, and I can tells he is nervous. Thankfully Taylor has adjusted to having Alex around so he is going to watch the kids whilst Sophie talks to me and Pez.

We walked into the living room and sat down, Pez was sat on my knee like she usually does when she is upset or nervous. "Pez, please don't get angry but what I'm about to tell you is quite serious." Sophie said, Pez just nodded. "Look babe, whilst mum and Dad were together, erm, dad used to go off with another woman. And well he has kids with her." Sophie looked down at her hands, I looked at Pez and she was shaking her head over and over. "He wouldn't do that to mum." She whispered. "He did babe. But basically, I've been in contact with the kids, there is two boys and one girl, but basically, to them, dad was amazing, he was the best dad ever, he never touched them in the wrong way." She said again. "Then, why did he hurt us?" Perrie asked trying not to cry. "Honestly babe, I don't know." Sophie said. "But they will be there tomorrow." She added. "Oh." Pez whispered and hid her face in my neck, I instantly felt her sobbing. "Oh sweetheart." I said and rubbed her back. "I'm not going." she whispered. "Wait, Pez, you have to go to dads funeral." Sophie said shocked. I shook my head trying to get her to stop. "No I do not!" Perrie cried. "Yes you do, he was your dad!" She said. "Yeah my dad, but he beat me up, he raped me, he was emotionally and physically abusive, no way does he deserve my respect with me going to his funeral." She cried. "Fine whatever." Sophie said and walked out. "Alex, lets go." She shouted, we saw Alex run through the room. "Are you alright Pez?" He asked, she nodded but cried into me again.

Perrie
I had honestly had enough, but we still had 2 more hours until we could put the kids to bed. Since it was such a beautiful day, we had all come outside, me and Jade were sat on deck chairs, well I was sat on her knee. We had Luna, Lyla and Ava sat on the trampoline. Charlie and Taylor were playing football. "You okay baby?" I heard Jade whisper, I nodded and rested my head on her chest. I closed my eyes for a split second.

AHHHHHH

I opened my eyes and saw Taylor face down on the floor. Shit. I got off Jade and ran to her, "Mama." She cried and clung to me, her chin was bleeding and so were her knees. "Jade, she needs a first aid kit." I shouted, but she already came to my side with it. I sat Taylor in Jade's knee and tried to clean it up. "Mama no!" She cried and kicked me. I fell backwards. "Taylor, we are trying to help you, say sorry now." Jade said and helped me up. "It hurts mama!" She cried. "We know it does sweetheart, so you need to let us clean it up." Jade said. "No." She cried and ran off.

20 minutes later, we had Taylor sat on my knee drinking a bottle with a plaster on her China do both knees. "Boy was that a battle" Jade laughed and sat next to me. "Tell me about it." I said and hugged her side. "Are you definitely not going tomorrow baby?" She asked and rubbed my side. "No, he doesn't deserve it." I replied. "Okay sweetheart, but tell me if you ever want to see his grave or anything." She whispered and I nodded.

We were going to put the kids to bed, Charlie fist since he is less hassle, then Ava and the twins then Taylor. We had sorted the others out, when we walked into Taylor's room. I tucked her in and Jade went to pass her her bottle but she shook her head. "Big girls don't drink bottles." She smiled. We all smiled. I'm glad she is finally growing out of it. "Good girl sweetie." Jade said and kissed her head, I did the same and we walked out.

Today we were leaving to America. Our flight leaves at 6 tonight, we flew everything there two days ago, Jade's mam is going to meet us at the airport. Right now though, we were on the way to the cemetery. I do feel bad not going my dads funeral and Sophie hasn't helped. She is making me feel worse. I also want to see my mams grave. Sophie is going to fly out after she has given birth, she is struggling to walk now, never mind fly, we have decided she is having a little bit and I can't wait to see his beautiful face. She decided she might as well move to America with us since she will get too lonely without me and Jade and the kids of course.

We pulled up at my dads grave, we left the kids in the car for a minute . I picked up the flowers and climbed out. Jade came to my side and squeezed my hand, I smiled weakly at her.

"Thanks for everything." I whispered, kissed the flowers and set them next to his head stone. "Goodbye dad." I said and turned to Jade. I instantly started crying into her shoulder.
As much as a horrid man my dad was, he was still half of me and I did love him.
