I opened the door to see Ryan. Of course the last person I wanted to see on the planet was at my front door. "What are you doing here?" I asked while Harding was holding onto my leg. "I came to meet my son." He said like it was the most obvious thing in the world. "Uhmmmm where did you find out he was your son," I asked confused. "For all you know Harding could be me and my boyfriend's kid" I added wanting him to leave. "Well I know we were together during the time he would've been conceived" he said and shrugged his shoulders.

"Well you can't just come into our lives and want to see him. I've been raising him for his whole life with the help of my friends and not you." I said as I picked up Harding. "How did you even find where I live?" I asked "well I went to your parent's house and you weren't there so your parents told me your new address. And here I am" he said with a big smile. "Well sorry, but I don't want you to be here" I annoyingly said. "Sorry for wanting to be in my own son's life." He said kind of pissed "Funny. Because when I was going over to your house the day I found out I was pregnant you weren't there. I asked where you were and your mom said you moved out." I said "I was so pissed and thought you found out I was pregnant somehow and moved before I could tell you." I added with a sigh "I'm so sorry. I wouldn't have moved if I knew you were pregnant. I would've stayed with you and helped raise..." he said hinting at what Harding's name was. "Harding" I said " but we wouldn't have worked out. You would have gotten sick of me after I had him and left like you did before you found out I was pregnant." I said kind of pissed off.

"Can I at least spend the day with you two. We can go do some things and then I'll be out of your lives till you want me in it again." He said which made me realize that he didn't want to take Harding from me he just wanted to spend some time with his son. I nodded and stepped away from the door motioning for Ryan to come in. "Hey bud. I'm Ryan" Ryan said while waving to the usually outgoing little boy in my arms. "Hi I'm Harding." He said with a small smile. I'm glad Ryan didn't say anything to Harding about being his dad because then Harding would be confused and Ryan would ask who Calum is and it would be a big mess.

"Just so you know I'm not looking for a relationship," Ryan said which made me furrow my eyebrows. "I have a boyfriend and I'm very happy with him." He said with a small smile and blush on his cheeks. "Oooo who is it," I said as I put Harding down. "His name is Brooklyn and we've been together for about a year. Pretty much since I left here" he said with a slight blush still. "Whyyy meee" I whined, "what do you mean?" He asked "everyone I know is in a relationship." I said as I sat down on a barstool. "Are you still friends with everyone?" He asked as he sat next to me. 

I nodded and said "Luke and Ash are finally together and Nikki and jack are still together. Mikey is still alone but I'm pretty sure he has his eyes in someone. And for me well there's this guy but we don't mention him at the moment."I was watching Harding play with his toys. "Oi tell me about this guy." He said while Wiggling I his eyebrows. "Well his name is Calum hood" I paused and looked over at him "you mean the Calum hood?" he asked surprised which I replied with a nod. "Anyways. He's been hanging around me and Harding for a few weeks now. And when Harding met him he instantly started calling him dada. I hope that doesn't offend you or anything. I mean I really couldn't do anything about it." I said nervously "don't worry he's two. Plus it doesn't bother me because this famous Calum guy already spent more time with Harding then I ever have." He said with a wide smile.

"Ok well he had to go on tour and he stopped talking to us for a few weeks. But yesterday he started talking to us again and he apologized and said he was so sorry and he didn't want to barge into our lives more then he did so that's why he stopped talking to us for a few weeks." I said kind of sadly "I'll beat him up if he ever does anything to you or Harding." Ryan said with a small smile. "Yea so will Nikki" I laughed. "Oh yes ferocious Nikki" Ryan said while laughing. "Do you want to go to the park. Harding absolutely loves the park" I said while standing up. "Sure that sounds fun!" Ryan said a bit over-excited "Harding wanna go to the park" I said which made Harding instantly shoot up and nod his head vigorously.

Time skip 2 hours

We went to the park for a few hours and Harding had a great time. We were now back at the apartment hanging out watching the office while Harding ate his lunch. We talked a lot about the past few years and cleared everything up and now we are pretty good friends again. When I saw him at first I was nervous that he would try and take Harding away from me but now I know he just wanted to meet him and be in his life. Which I appreciated at least he didn't come in another ten years and show up then to take him away from me. It's better he came around now than in many years. Knocking at the front door made me separate from my thoughts and I instantly got up off the couch and went over to the door.

I opened it and standing there was . . .

Mad about that. But reading a good lashton fanfic currently called 'help' don't remember who it's by but that's ok. Ok bye love you all.
