The One That Got Away

Chapter 18

Selena POV

"Who that?" Harley asked, I furrowed my eyebrows at him as I turn to him and see him pointing at some letter blocks hanging up on a wall. I look up and see what he was pointing at, making me slightly drop my jaw.

EMMA.

"Emma" I smiled, walking up to the letter blocks.

"Who that, mommy?" Harley asked, slightly yanking his shirt back and forth.

I smiled down at him, picking him up as I help him in my arms over my hip so he could see more closely.

"This is Emma....your big sister"

"EMMA!" Harley giggles, looking at the blocks as he reaches over to touch the blocks.

Yes I've told him about his older sister, that she's in a better place. He knows that Harry isn't his dad, but doesn't know that she's Louis's daughter.

I haven't' mentioned Emma to Louis in so long, though her death brought us closer as friends. I even have her name carved in Harley's room, on some teddy bear figurine. He loves it since her name is on it.

"Mommy, Gma!" he mispronounces, pointing at a picture frame over the shelf below Emma's name.

It was a photo of my mother. My mother.

"Yeah, that's grandma" I smiled, picking up the picture frame as I looked at her photo.

"Mommy look like Gma" he smiles, pointing at photo as I chuckled.

"Yeah....yeah she does"

"I'm home!" Danielle comes in, smiling at me and Harley as soon as she sees us.

"Hey guys"

"Hey, Taylor is asleep in his crib"

"That's awesome, your such a great help" she smiled exhaustedly, placing her bag over the counter.

"So, any updates on.....you know" Danielle asked, referring to Harry.

"No, not really"

"Mommy call daddy!" Harley demands, patting my arm as I sighed.

"Harley, do you really want to call daddy?" I asked, placing him down on the ground as I kneel down to meet his height.

"YES! CALL DADDY! CALL DADDY!" He hops, pouting and crossing his arms.

"Fine, okay" I gave in, getting up as I make my way over to the coffee table where my phone was and grabbing it.

I take a seat on the couch, dialing the number before placing my phone over my ear.

"It's beeping" I smiled weakly at Harley as he smiles excitedly at me.

Beep.....Beep.....Beep....Beep-

He picked up, Harry picked up!

"Hello?"

It was Harry. Oh my gosh, his voice.

"H-Hey" I stuttered, biting my bottom lip anxiously.

"S-Sel?"

"Y-Yeah, it's me"

"What is it? Why'd you call?" He asked, making me sigh to myself.

Danielle was watching me, motioning to say something. I just sighed once more before getting back to the conversation.

"I just wanted to hear your voice....." I admitted to him.

"And Harley misses you"

"Why would he miss me? After what I've done to you?"
