Miley's POV

"Okay Miley, it's April 30th. It's the end of the month, you need to go home. As much as I love you, you need to go home and deal with Liam. You have kids, they need their mom." Noah says.

"I know, I'm just...I don't know."

"Miley, I can't just let you stay here anymore. The longer you wait, the harder it's gonna be."

"I know, and I wanna go. I just don't know what to say."

"Try letting him explain first."

"Okay, fine...I'll go. You and Ethan deserve to have alone time with Logan, I'll leave you alone." I reply.

"It isn't that you're bugging us, I get you wanna be away from him. But you do need to figure this out."

"Thanks for letting me stay, I really appreciate it."

"You're welcome, don't worry about it. It was nice having you here, Logan enjoyed you being here too."

"Well I enjoyed being here too. I missed hanging out with you guys, I missed Logan too. Can I say bye before I leave or is he asleep?"

"I just put him down for his nap, if he isn't super tired it takes him a few minutes to fall asleep. He should be awake. You go say bye, I'll grab your bag." She answers.

"No no, I don't want you carrying that."

"Miley, I carried it in when I went and got the bag. I'm sure I can carry it out of the guest bedroom. Now go say bye to Logan."

I walk to Logan's room and slowly open the door. I peeked inside and saw him lying in his toddler bed. He was facing away from me so I couldn't tell if he was asleep or not. I walked in quietly and looked over him. He looked asleep, but I wanted to say goodbye anyway.

"Hey Logan." I whisper as I sit on the bed. He turns over and rubs his eyes.

"Hi Miley." Logan says with a smile.

"I'm gonna be leaving today and I wanted to say goodbye."

"You're leaving?"

"Yeah buddy, I am. I gotta go back home to uncle Liam and your cousins. Thanks for letting me hang out with you, I had so much fun."

"Me too."

"Okay, be good for mommy and daddy."

"I will. I love you."

"I love you too Logan. Now go back to sleep." I hug him and kiss his forehead before I leave.

I walked back into the living room and Noah was waiting by the door with my bag.

"I don't know why but I'm really nervous." I say walking up to her.

"You'll be fine, but can you promise me one thing?"

"I don't know, it depends on what it is you want me to promise."

"Don't yell the whole time, talk. Be calm about it."

"Okay, I promise I won't yell. As long as you do one thing for me."

"What is it?" Noah asks.

"Tell me the genders, I've waited so long. Please tell me you and Ethan decided to tell me."

"Oh that, yeah he agreed you can know. And he said you can tell Liam, as long as you two don't tell anyone else."

"What happened to you telling everyone? You said it was a hard secret to keep. I won't tell anyone, but I was wondering."
