HARRY

"I love you Ari," I smile and press my lips against hers, her hands running through my hair.

"Harry," she whispers.

"Yeah," I mumble as our noses brush.

"You really are amazing."

I smile.

We have a few minutes just resting in each other's arms.

"I know this is one of the worst times to ask, I know you don't want me to ask this but..." She bites her lip.

"What babe, tell me."

"Look," She wraps her hands around my neck as she sat on my lap. "Will I ever get to meet... your family, like your father."

I take my bottom lip in between my teeth and look away. That was one thing I was hoping she wouldn't ask but I knew it would come one day.

"Ari," I sigh. "Why do you want to meet them, him?"

"Because it's your family Harry." She says. "Family means a lot to me. We're having a baby Harry, they'll have to find that out one day too."

"I know babe but," I sigh.

"But what Harry? Why are you so against it, I thought your family was important to you too. I've met your sister Gemma and she's lovely."

"They do Ari, it's just I haven't seen my father in a while." I admit.

She grabs my hand.

"I understand Harry. But I want you and your father to see each other, he even visited you at the hospital and he doesn't even know your out. He must really care for you Harry, I thought you were close?"

I look down at our hands and look back up to her.

"Ari, it's complicated ok." I mumble. "We used too... but things changed that day when my mother died. We just check up on each other by phone or Gemma. That's just how we are and it's ok. He'll be ok when he finds out I'm fine."

"I know Harry, and I know it's not my place to be saying all this. But... I guess I just really want you and him to reunite. It makes me sad knowing you barely talk, that you've left it like this. What if something happens Harry? You'll regret it if you don't."

I sigh. I knew she really wanted this and she was right.

"Ari, look," I sigh. "You're right, I know. I guess I would do it for you if you really wanted this. But don't be surprised when you see us. It'll be very tense and awkward. We don't have the best relationship right now. I don't want him knowing about Curtis."

I had to say, I was glad my father had bothered to get off his ass and see if I was ok.

"And let's start changing that before it's too late. He loves you, you're just afraid at how he'll react. He just wants to protect you, he won't be angry at you for Curtis. He doesn't have to know if you really don't want too,"

"Ari, we have a really difficult time expressing our emotions, especially when it comes to love. And with Curtis, he will be fucking fuming knowing I'm working for the guy again, just like he did and look what happened..."

She sighs.

"Yeah I know. But Harry, you were forced to get back into all this. He'll eventually understand. You're his blood."

I looked down. I hadn't told her the complete truth. It wasn't huge but I knew if I told her it would break her heart because at the end of the day, this was all my fault.

"Look at me Harry," she says.

I smile slightly at how she took control.

"Trust me Harry, this is the right thing to do. I'm not expecting you two to both run into each others arms and to be all fine again. I understand it must be hard for both of you to express yourselves properly after what you've both been through. If things don't go well, at least you tried. That's the important thing."

"I know ari," I mumble.

I look down and hear her sigh.

"I won't force you Harry, I just don't want you to lose your relationship with your father. I don't have mine anymore but I'm lucky enough to have had such a great relationship. I don't want it to happen to you and for you to ever regret never going." she whispers softly. "It's heartbreaking,"

It broke me to hear what she said about her father. She was right.

She climbed off of me and began to walk a way but I grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.

I stood up and pressed my lips against hers.

"Look, I'm sorry, I'll try and get in touch with Gemma so we all," I swallow. "Meet up,"

She smiles slightly.

"But just don't get your hopes up. This isn't the best timing, I don't want Curtis finding my father again. So... if it's too dangerous—"

"I know. Don't worry." She smiles, wrapping her arms around me. "Thank you Harry,"

I smile.

"Anything for you." I whisper.

"What do you think your father would think... about the news?" she says biting her lip.

I keep my arms wrapped around her waist.

"I think he would be shocked... but happy. The way I was acting before, I don't think he would ever think I would be where I am now with how bad I was."

She smiles.

"Do you think we should tell him, I mean I do need time to get to know him."

"When we feel it's the right time we will, just right now, ease in to things. Just talk to him."

She nods.

"Are you not nervous?" I chuckle.

"Are you fucking joking? I'm terrified. It's your father Harry. I just want him to accept me. To accept us." She smiles, rubbing her tummy.

I smile.

"He'd love you."

"Harry..." She says, unsure.

"No really." I mumble. "You're kind and loving, just like my mother... I think he'd respect that."

She smiles.

"I'm glad. To be anything like your mother... I'm happy."
