Harry;

She asked me to go home with her, what do I say? I mean, I would love to but I'm working on my new album and never mind how bad it would look to the public.

"Bree, I-" I make confused hand motions, "I would, believe me, but I can't. With me being halfway through my album and-"

"No, it's- it's okay. It's fine. I understand." She said, putting on a fake smile. "Shall we continue watching the movie?"

She reached over and un-paused the movie, grabbing her food and started eating slowly, avoiding my gaze at all costs.

Michael;

I walk through the airport, my duffle over my shoulder and I call out for a cab. I had asked for four days off to fix things with Bree, hoping to repair the broken pieces I had caused.

I tell the driver Harry's address and watch out the window as we drive through London, I pull my phone out and start playing games.

From: Cal

From: Ash

She loves you, Mikey. She'll take you back in a heartbeat. Good luck mate.

I reply back to all of them and notice we're pulling up, I take out some cash, pay the driver and make my way up to the flat. My nerves are starting to kick in and thoughts are going all over the place, I wipe my sweaty palms on my jeans and raise my hand up to the door, knocking three times.

The door opens, revealing Harry with Declan on his hip, his head on Harry's shoulder. "Michael?"

"Hey, Harry." I breathe out, my eyes going to Declan, "Declan?"

Declan slowly and tiredly lifts his head up, looking at me and his eyes brighten up, "Daddy!!"

He starts squirming in Harry's hold and I hold my arms out, Declan basically jumping into them and I embrace him tightly as I close my eyes, loving every second of this moment.

"Hi buddy." I say, I kiss his head as I run my hand through his slightly longer hair now.

"I missed you, daddy" He says, pulling back to look at me and I smile widely.

"I missed you too, kiddo." I move him onto my hip and Harry steps aside, letting me in.

"Harry? Who's at the-" Bree comes into the foyer, immediately stopping in her tracks, "Michael?"

"Hey, Bree." I say, my heart racing.

"What're you doing here?" She asks, coming up to me and for a second I thought she was going to hug me, but my shoulders slumped when she took Declan from my grasp.

"I-I came to fix things between us." I mumble, pushing my hands in my jean pockets.

"Harry, could you take Declan to the room? It's time for his nap." Harry obeys, taking Declan from Bree.

"I could do it." I say, and she just nods her head and Harry takes him away, Declan starts crying for me.

Once Declan and Harry were out of sight, Bree turned to me with her arms crossed with a slight frown.
