The Past (scirstie)

Two

"Scott. Uh, hi." I say awkwardly before looking for Scarlett.

"Oh, hi. Can we talk? I want to catch up." Scarlett peeked from behind me, and immediately looking at me because he looks like her 'Daddy,' because duh, they have the same last name.

"Who's this?" Scott gave Scarlett a warming smile which Scar gladly returned. "Oh, this is Scarlett, my daughter.

"Can we go now? I have a feeling we're being watched. Paps and such." He nodded before we quickly headed to my house. As I locked the front door, Scarlett immediately asked Scott lots of questions.

"You look like me! What's your favorite color? Where do you live? Do you know my Mama? Do you play Plants vs. Zombies? Are you a singer like Mama?"

"Whoa dear, chill down for a bit and make Uncle Scott answer. Go change back to normal clothes because I think you spilled too much Apple Juice on your uniform." Scar nodded before running up the stairs.

"She's one girl you got there Kirst." Scott smiled. I got some leftover tarts from last night and set them down on the coffee table. I sat down comfortably as I lazily put my head on his shoulder.

"Do you remember what happened before Kirst? Will you tell me now?" He asks so eagerly. I gulp before setting down my cup of water. "It's because of-"

"Mama! Help please!" Scarlett interrupted as she called. I stood up quickly before heading to her room, revealing Scar stuck in her tight jumper. I laugh at the sight before carefully unzipping the back of her jumper. "There, now remember to unzip the back before taking the jumper off. You don't want your hair in your mouth again." I mess her hair as I told her to play in her room since me and Scott had to talk 'Like Adults'

As i got everything settled, I quietly crept down the stairs to see Scott watching SpongeBob. Still the boy I loved.

"Hey Scott? Sorry I took long; Scarlett got stuck with her jumper." He nods before going back to my comfortable spot earlier. "Can we continue?"

"Sure." I say casually, ready to spill the truth. "I left you for your own good, so you could have a chance to be who you are." I played with his now dry tank top which made his growing abs visible. "I left you because Scarlett came along. I'm sorry if it hurt you, but I didn't want you to be involved, I didn't want you to be pulled down because of my mistakes."

Scott just smiled "But I made a mistake too. But Scarlett's a beautiful mistake, let's not call her that."

"But you didn't deserve to have a mistake! I knew Scarlett was coming because I was scared for your future! Not mine! Scarlett was a mistake that made you realize that you could pursue your dreams so easily! Scarlett was a mistake that drove us apart!" I told Scott, giving in and flushing all the anger in me.

"Mama? I'm a mistake?" I heard a small voice cry. I turn around to see Scarlett crying, and then she ran up to her room. I curse to myself then looked at Scott, who followed me to Scar's room.

"Scarlett? I'm sorry I told that about you. Can you please open up?" I knock before I heard little thuds from behind the door before it revealed Scarlett crying.

"Baby can we talk? You have to know something." She just nodded, sniffing and sitting on her big lunge chair, arms crossed.

"Look baby, when I and Uncle Scott were teenagers, we were in love." She immediately looked up with curiosity. She loved the idea of falling in love. She's thought it was the best feeling in the world, being in love and waking up in the morning knowing someone loves you romantically.

"Like, really in love?" Her head tilted sideways in the cutest way. I smile before looking at Scott, who slowly slid his hand on my arm. Our fingers intertwine before I continue.

"Yes dear. We were so in love that you came along. We thought of getting married and having kids, but not this early. So I left Scott so he could be happy and famous without anything to pull him down. I left him before you were born." I say calming.

"So you left my daddy because you love him so much." She asked after regaining her senses.

I smiled. "Yes, I did it out of love."

"Oh, okay mama. I forgive you." She dropped her fairy plush toy and hugged me tight. I chuckle before hugging my beautiful daughter back. We let go, until Scarlett speaks up. "You're my Daddy right?"

"I suppose so Princess." Scott smiled before crouching.

"Can I hug you? You're my Daddy so can I?" Scar asked, but Scott only responded with his arms open wide.

"Come here."

And before I knew it, we were playing around the house with Scott. You know 'Family Bonding'

After we all got settled down, Scott asked if he could stay the night, and of course, I said yes.

"Hey Kirst, can we take a picture with Scarlett? I need to update my Instagram and Twitter. It's been forever since I did." He asked as I lay down next to him, head on his shoulder.

I nod, and he takes out his phone, ready to take a snap. We smile brightly, and he adds a caption

'Having a great time with these two! @ScarlettRiannon and @kirstintaylor12 I'm so happy I got to meet you again! #Reunion'

"So what do we do now? It's already 10pm." Scott asked as Scarlet yawned. I smile "I guess it's bedtime for you my angel." I led her up to change into her pyjamas and tucked her into bed.

"Goodnight Mama. Will Daddy be there tomorrow?" She asked.

"Yes, my Angel. Daddy will be there tomorrow." I kiss her forehead. "Goodnight Angel." I head out the door after closing the lamp and heading back to the couch where I lay comfortably on Scott's lap. He rests his hand on my thigh. "So, you still love me?" He asked. I smiled.

"I never gave up on you. I hope you didn't." I look up, to see him blushing. He didn't answer, but he just pulled me closer, softly kissing my neck. "Why would I give up someone as beautiful as you?" I moaned.

"True." I smiled. "Very true."

"Now, can we turn you around?" I gladly obliged as I turned around, my legs wrapped around his waist. Our lips connected, oh how I missed his warm lips. The kiss soon got heated as he gently sets me down on the couch. He towered over me first before reconnecting our lips.

We stayed like that for a while, missing each other's touch. A moan escaped from my lips as his hand lifted my shirt. I helped him, but after that, we headed to my bedroom.

"Babe, can we?" He slowly took off his shirt before stopping, playing with the hem of my underwear.

I shook my head. "Even if I want to, we can't. Plus we both know how loud we can be in bed." I told him before smiling. "Okay, anything you want Kirst." He laid down beside me and I nuzzle my head at the crook of his neck. "Goodnight Scott."

He kissed my forehead. "Goodnight babe. You don't know how happy I am to know we have a small family of our own."

I smile. "Yeah, our own, secret, beautiful family."
