"It's perfect," I smile after Des whispers our new babies name in my ear. "Guess who's coming to Maui with us as well," I smirk.

"Who?" she questions, while I hand her Ellie. Ellie balances on Desserea's hip, and plays with her hair.

"Hailee and Taylor."

"Oh my gosh! I haven't seen them in forever! I missed Hailee and Taylor so much and I can't wait to see their baby!" Our excitement is interrupted by Nash.

"Not to interrupt you guys, but you have to come quick!" we follow him to his room where Hayes is. "Hayes won't answer any texts, calls, or respond to us when we try talking to him. And Ashton has been crying for an hour. I'm really worried about Hayes.".

"Here, let me try." I knock on the door," Hayes, it's Cameron. Can I come in?". Three seconds later, my phone buzzes.

To: Cameron

They must leave first.

From: Hayes

I shoo them away and knock again on the door. The door slightly opens, and I slip into the room. Hayes sits on the bed with Ashton cradled in his arms, whaling. Poor Ashton won't stop crying, and Hayes doesn't look too good either.

"He won't stop crying, and I can't stop crying either," Hayes starts to cry.

"Let me see Ashton," he hands me Ashton and I slowly rock him back and forth till he falls asleep.

"What am I gonna do?" Hayes cries. I pull him into a hug and he cries on my shoulder.

"Just relax. We'll all help take care of Ashton. And when we move to Maui we will be living together and everything will be better." I say as he cries even more. I've never seen Hayes cry this much After about twenty minuets of Hayes and I crying, he lets me leave and falls asleep with Ashton in his arms.

I walk to the couch and sit down. A bigger sigh than I intended comes from me. When I look to my left, Des is laying in the couch with Ellie laying next to her, asleep.

One thing that I still haven't done, is talk to our new baby. I kneel down on the side of the couch and start to whisper near Desserea's small baby bump.

"Hi there sweetheart, it's your Daddy. I wanted to tell you that I will always protect you and I won't let anything happen to you." I place my hand on her stomach.

***Desserea's P.O.V.***

I wake up to Cam's warm hands touching my baby bump and the sound of him whispering. "Daddy has screwed up pretty bad lately and has let down mommy and sissy. But I promise that I won't let you down. Even though you were an unexpected surprise, you won't be loved any less than a planned baby." tears swell in my eyes and I start to cry.

The baby kicks a few times, which makes me sob even more. "Aww babe," he cuddles next to me.

"Our baby heard you, and responded. The whole time you were talking our baby was listening to you." It's amazing to think that Cam and I were able to make two amazing children.

"Sweetheart, you don't need to cry." he chuckles under his breath before wrapping his arms around me. Ellie lifts up her head and crawls over to us. Tugging on Cameron's shirt, she probably notices something's wrong.

"Don't worry baby girl, Mommy is okay." he whispers to Ellie. She looks at me and points at my stomach. Maybe she heard Cam talking to our baby.

"Should we tell her, even though she probably won't understand?" he asks me. I shrug and give him a why not look.

He picks her up and places her on his knee. "Mommy and Daddy have to tell you something," she nods and then looks at me, then back at Cam as if she understands everything. "You are going to be a big sister in a few months." He says softly spoken.

"Da-da, Ma-ma!" she squeals. Tears start to fall as she places her hands on my tummy carefully. "Ma-ma," she repeats but in a softer tone.

"I love you baby girl," I move a piece of her hair behind her ear and smile. The baby kicks and she must've felt it, cause she pulls back her hand, pokes Cameron to get his attention, and points at my stomach. I can't help it, and start to cry again. Ellie hugs me and says,"No cry.". She repeats that twice and then kisses my cheek.

"I'm sorry Ellie. I'm sorry for being such an awful mom and not being there for you when you needed me to. I'm sorry for letting Damian do all those horrible things to you. I'm sorry." My hands rub against my eyes as I cry even more. Cameron tells Ellie to go find Alandra, cause she'll keep her busy while Cam and I talk.

She crawls away, leaving Cameron and I. "Just let it out." he rubs my back as I sob. I bawl into his chest and start to take short shallow breaths.

"Sweetheart, your not a bad mom-"

"Yes I am," I cut him off,"I can't let my new child be kidnapped or shot like Ellie! I let our first child almost die!".

"Babe, calm down. We're all together now, and we will stay together in Maui." he soothes me.

"I love you," I whisper.

"I love you too," he whispers back before giving me a kiss. Tears run down my cheeks as I cry. I'm a horrible mom. I don't wanna mess up with our new child like I did with Ellie.

I finally wipe my tears away and stand up. "Oh babe, I almost forgot to tell you that we need a few more boxes. Do you mean getting some with Hayes?" he asks me.

"Why Hayes?"

"He needs to get out of the house and away from Ashton for a little bit. Nash and I will take care of Ashton and Ellie while you guys are gone." I nod and go to the bathroom to change. I put on a pair of leggings and navy blue lace shirt that some what big, but no matter what I wear my baby bump sort of shows. I apply some mascara and concealer, and just leave my hair down.

I head up to get Hayes. When I enter the room, Hayes has Ashton in his lap and is messing with his hair. "Hey, I need to go get some boxes, wanna come?".

"Uh...sure." he looks around and then stands up. Once Hayes is ready, we go to get some boxes.

"Have I missed anything important in the house?" he disrupts the silence in the car.

"Not really, just a bunch of packing and some drama with Jack and Cameron, but nothing too serious." I shrug.

"Desserea, how do you do it? Raising a child and protecting a new one, while trying not to get caught. How come you can do that, but I can barely breathe every time I think of," he stops and takes a deep breath," Of-Of Rosalie.".

"I just keep going. I don't look back cause if I did, I'd turn back. It'll be hard at first, but eventually it'll get better." I say while thinking back to when my brother died.

"Didn't your brother die when you were younger?" he asks. My heart starts to ache, and my stomach flips.

Hey guys😕. I might not update for a while cause I'm really sad right now and can't really write. I'm super sad cause of Lexi and Adam. Message me if you wanna hear what happened cause I'm not saying it on here. And if you know please don't put who Lexi and Adam are in the comments cause I don't want any drama going on. Bye guys😞.
