Watching Melody laugh and smile at Niall was overwhelming relieving but also heart-breaking. Even though I had felt reassured, I wouldn't let him back into my -- our life.

"It's getting pretty late," I spoke up as her wiped her mouth. They both looked up at me with his eyes, pleading in their expressions.

"Mommy," Mel whined. I smiled, standing up to signal that we were leaving. Niall hadn't said one word to me since we'd arrived, and I was trying to keep in words of my own.

Does he want her? What does he hope to accomplish? my mind wondered as I threw my garbage out.

"Can you carry me, Daddy?" My feet faltered for a second at how she could know to call him that. I heard his voice break as well when he went to speak.

"Uh, sure," he laughed nervously as I pretended that hadn't happened. Tears lingered at the back of my throat, and I fumbled for my house key to distract myself.

Yes, I was still mad at Niall, but something dulled my anger. Melody seemed to be obsessed with him. How could I take him out of her life after that night?

When we arrived, I saw that Melody's eyes were drooping. I let them into the apartment, staring at the floor as Niall stood and waited for me to say something. I avoided his eyes, looking right to Melody as she opened her eyes to see why he had stopped moving.

"Go and get ready for bed, honey," I spoke softly to her. She nodded, and Niall put her down. I wasn't surprised when she pulled on his sleeve expectantly.

"Let's go!" she exclaimed, still a little drowsy, but I had no doubt that he was the reason for her excitement. She had always loved meeting new people.

She pulled him to the bathroom as I flopped down on the couch, holding back tears. He laughed with her as the water in the sink ran, and then to her room to put on pajamas.

I didn't want him back, not after what he done. I didn't need him back in my life, but it seemed as if getting what I wanted wouldn't be that easy.

I let my eyes fall closed, a few tears escaping. I pushed all my thoughts about how he could benefit my life and Melody down, biting my tongue.

"She's asleep," Niall spoke up, making my eyes pop open in surprise.

"Okay," I breathed, thinking that was awful quick, but sometimes my thoughts consumed me. I stood to look at him, his eyes wide and so blue.

"Then it'd be best if you were going," I spoke abit harsher than I had wanted. I walked to the door, resting my hand on the knob and waiting for him to walk towards it and out of my life.

"I don't want to go," he said, shrugging. "I obviously made a huge mistake." I stared at him, knowing I couldn't keep him away if he wanted to stay.

"You did!" I yelled, letting my heart out, along with my tears. My hands became fists, and I couldn't look at him. Something felt so wrong about letting him back in, but I knew that a bigger part of me wanted him.

"I want to comfort you," he whispered. "I want to be here for you, but that's not what you want." I wanted to yell in his face that he was being quite smart about that, but no sass came through; I only nodded.

"You need to leave," I got out, breathing quickly. He stepped closer to me, and my brain panicked.

"I can't tell you how sorry I am," he sighed taking his hands out of his pockets. I thought that he might have been going for the door, but when he stopped right in front of me, I dismissed that thought along with many others.

"That's why-" He started to come even closer to me, and I furrowed my eyebrows, trying to continue.

"You need to. . ." My words trailed off as I realized he was going to kiss me.

But I didn't stop him.

His lips felt so familiar on mine, and I wanted to reverse time and make things right.

He released faster than I could comprehend, looking guilty.

"I'll go now," he spoke to the floor. A grin came to my cheeks, and I placed my hand on his cheek.

All of the positive thoughts raced through my body, and so did my love for him.

"No,"  I smiled, lifting my eyes to meet his surprised ones. "Stay."

And I let myself want him again.
