26. Graveyard

Scarlett

*5 months later*

I had settled in back home with Matthew, Dan moved in with us. A few of his boxes stored in the spare room. Matthew was an angel, he didn't really cry, I got my sleep, and he got his.

"Dan, can you set up breakfast" I groaned.

I heard Dan moan and followed by a crash, "shit" he whispered.

I got up and carried Matthew in my arms.

"What the hell Dan?" I laughed, he got up and wiped his glasses.

He then prepared coffee for the both of us.

I went into the room and got changed, "Dan I'm just going down to the shops I'll be quick, take care of Ivan for a bit."

I kissed Dan on the cheek, put my shoes on and went out the door.

I needed milk, coffee, cereal, bread, yogurt and Dan said needed fruit.

I went through the isles of the grocery store quickly, I ended up getting a tub of ice cream, cereal, pancake mix and finally coffee.

I rushed back home, I checked the time 9:30. I was gone for half an hour, that's okay I guess.

I arrived home, "Dan...Daaan??" I set down the groceries on the kitchen bench. I heard a small snore coming from somewhere, I turned around to see Dan and Matthew on the floor sleeping, Matthew was on Dan's chest sleeping soundly and Dan was snoring quietly.

"Aww so cute" I thought to myself. I quickly snapped a picture of them both and put a pillow under Dan's head.

Dan

Scarlett left to go to the shops, so I was left with Matthew. I set him down on the blanket, I laid down next to him. He crawled over to me and started to play with my hair. I got out my laptop and sat up, I put Matthew on my lap. he was trying his hardest to reach my hair. I chuckled.

I was mindlessly scrolling through my twitter and answering some fans questions, the usual. I put my laptop away and laid Matthew on my chest. We soon drifted off to sleep.

I awoke to the sound of a camera click, "huh?" I said groggily. "Scar you're back" I laughed. She smiled sweetly. I put Matthew in his cott carefully, Scarlett came over and stood next to me. I put my hand around her waist, "Your a good dad Smith." she whispered as she went on her toes to kiss me, our lips had connected for a quick kiss.

"Dan, Ive been meaning to tell you this but im going to the doctors to see who's baby it is, I can't bear it any longer." Scarlett's eyes were going glossy,

"No, no Scarlett dont cry." I said as I pulled her into a hug.

"I-Im sorry. It's just I miss him you know? I dunno but I think its time to visit Ivan, could you maybe come with me to his grave?" Scarlett managed to get out.

"Ofcourse, anyrhing for you Scar." I said as I wiped a tear of her cheek. Scarlett has been going to his grave everyday for the past few months. It didnt really bother me though, but she always makes me stay home and take care of Matthew. I was surprised about her asking to go with her.

*******

We arrived at the graveyard, Scarlett stood by his grave. It read 'Ivan James Peters-

"Hey Ivan, sorry I didnt come yesterday. I want you to meet someone-" she said as she linked her arms with me. "This is Dan, yes Dan Smith from Bastille, isn't that crazy. I just wanted to tell you that I'm dating him. -sigh- I never told you this but I dated Dan a while ago, then we broke up and then you found me." She chuckled. "Also when you were in America, I-I had an affair with Dan. I'm so sorry Ivan. I can't live with myself. I-Ivan, I'm sorry." she said breaking down, she say down with her knees tucked under her chin. "I would've fought harder Ivan, this sounds selfish but Ivan I please come back to me. Please I can't do this anymore."
