The movie had ended and before Luke left Lexi requested him to stay for her bath, which he did. He'd flick water at her and she'd giggle and he'd also play with the toys with her as well. He flicked water at me and I threw a wet washcloth at him.

"Alright Lexi, we've had fun in the tub, let's get out before you turn into a raisin." Luke said trying to take her out and she looked down at herself and panicked.

"I don't want to be a raisin!" She said pouting out her lips as if she was about to start crying.

"Then let's get out of that tub then?" Luke said smiling widely at her, she nodded before she got a devious smile on her face. As soon as Luke bent down to pick her up she splashed him, Luke was soaked and he gave her a look. Lexi began to giggle and I followed until Luke looked at me I pretended to cough.

"Sorry." I mumbled looking up at the ceiling.

"Alexis Meredith Taner." Luke scolded using her full name and Lexi's lip started to quiver and Luke panicked. "No no baby, don't cry it's okay." Luke cooed as he picked her up in a towel and held her closely to him while kissing her on the cheek.

"I sorry uncle Wuke." Lexi said wrapping her arms around Luke's neck and hugging him.

"It's okay baby girl." Luke said kissing the side of her head. Luke carried her to her room and grabbed her some pajamas.

"Mommy can I watch Tangled?" Lexi asked me, I usually let her watch a movie before bed so I nodded. Luke got her into her pajamas and kissed her on the head.

"Alright cutie I gotta go, but I'll see you tomorrow." Luke said kneeling down to her level. She gave him a hug and picked her up before putting her into my arms.

"Bye uncle Wuke." Lexi said waving him a goodbye, he waved back and headed downstairs to leave. I took a look at Lexi's pajamas and rolled my eyes as I took her shirt off. "Why did you do that?" Lexi asked confusingly.

"Your uncle doesn't know how to put on your shirt, he can barley put pants on daily." I laughed to myself and Lexi thought it was funny too.

I picked her up and headed downstairs grabbing her some milk and set her down on the couch. I put the movie in as she sat there in amusement. That's when a knock on the door was heard and I thought it was Luke coming back because he'd forgotten something, he usually does. I went to open the door and who I saw wasn't Luke at all, I stood there frozen in place.

"Addie." I closed the door a little so Lexi didn't see who was at the door.

"What are you doing here?" I asked quiet rudely not really in the mood to talk to him.

"I asked Harry and he told me, although he was right about you not wanting to speak with me." He said kicking at the ground.

"Well I called you trying to give you another chance and you never answered. Now four years later you're here on my doorstep, what do you want Ashton I don't have time for bullshit." I asked and he seemed shocked at my harshness, I was being harsh for a reason.

"I'm here to say I'm sorry, for everything." I laughed bitterly.

"Oh you're sorry, well guess what Ashton, sorry isn't going to fix the pain you put me through." I snapped at him and he glared at me.

"At least I came here to find you and apologized." He snapped back crossing his arms.

"Sorry doesn't always work Ashton, and after four years, it took you four years to come and tell me sorry?" I said feeling tears start to come up and I didn't want him seeing me cry.
