~Carlos' POV~

My dad said that we were going to have visitors coming over today. I was sitting in the living room with my sister as my mother ran to the door. My dad got up as she opened it.

"Ana!" My mother smiled. "Come in."

A blonde haired woman came in the house. She has a little blonde girl with her, that looked about 2 or 3 years old. And then a other girl came but she was...grown. Curly hair, hazel green eyes, she was little darker than me, and looked like she was 22 years old.

"Ella? Is that you?!" My father asked, hugging her. "You've gotten big!"

"Hello Zayn." She smiled and hugged him back. "How are things? Getting ready to go back to the war?"

"Yes. Me and you're mother right?" My father asked.

"Yes, she's leaving Daniella with me. I'll be taking care of her, like always when she's gone." Ella smiled.

Ella glanced at me for a second and then had a big smile on her face. "Is that you, Carlos?"

I don't know who that is...

"Carlos you don't remember but you were only baby then. Ella and her mother were living with us. When you were about 3 you and her would play around the house when Ana would come over." My father chuckled.

"Nothing rings a bell dad.." I said.

My mother laughed and sat next to me. "It's alright, honey."

Elizabeth didn't really say anything because she didn't know them either. I pulled Elizabeth close as she sighed. "When is mum and dad going to realize that we don't remember them?"

"I don't know." I shrugged.

Everyone came and sat on the couch. I saw Ella staring at me but then she blushed and looked away. Elizabeth saw it too, we both laughed a little. Ella is beautiful and all but I have my eyes set on someone else.

"So Carlos, I know you don't remember me but how are you?" Ana asked.

"I'm-uh, good." I nodded.

"Is this you're daughter?" Ana asked.

"Yup." My father smiled.

"She looks like you, Natalia." Ana smiled.

Elizabeth and mother smiled. The little girl, Daniella walked over to me. Her big blue eyes staring into mine. I chuckled as she put her arms out.

"Dani." Ella said.

"No, she's alright." I smiled. "Hey, Dani."

She ended up climbing on my lap and just sitting here.

"Wow, she must like you." My father chuckled.

"Must be, she's never done that before." Ana said.

My mother got up as she smiled. "Well, lunch is set on the table. Who's hungry?"

"Me!" Ella said, jumping up.

I picked up Dani and walked in the kicthen. I sat down as Dani was still in my arms. There was some food on the table. I grabbed a little sandwitch and handed it to Dani.

"Want this?" I asked, smiling a little.

She nodded and grabbed the sandwitch. I laughed as Dani took a very small bit of the sandwitch. My mother smiled as she looked at me.

"Maybe someday, you'll have you're own family." My mother said, stroking my hair.

I gave my mother a warm smile, thinking about if I'll ever get married. Everyone was eating talking at the table. I put Dani down and went in the living room. I sat down on the couch and laid down. As I closed my eyes, I felt a little hand touch mine. I opened my hand and saw Dani.

"Hey." I chuckled. Dani had that little cute look on her face. Her blue eyes staring in my blue ones. I smiled as I picked her up. She sat on my stomach, just looking around the house.

"House." She said.

"Yes, house." I smiled.

"Mama." Dani said.

"No, I'm Car-los." I said.

"Car." Dani said.

"Or Car suits me." I laughed.

Ella came in the room. "Dani, Carlos isn't going anywhere."

"Car!" She smiled.

"She really likes you." Ella laughed.

"Where's her father?" I asked.

"Ana, doesn't really about him much." Ella shrugged. "Dani has said, dada."

I nodded, stroking Dani's hair. Her pretty long blonde hair. Everyone else walked in the room, my mum and dad smiled at me.

"Wow, Carlos." My father said. "She reminds me of you when you were small like her. Followed me everywhere I go."

"But when you had to leave, it was the end of his day. He would cry himself to sleep and wake up asking for you still. So I would have to face time you." My mother said, rubbing my back.

"It still does end my day." I said. "I still cry when you go dad. I just don't show it."

My father smiled at me. "That means a lot."

I smiled back at him. Elizabeth sat on the other side of me. She was playing with Dani.

*****

Ana, Ella, and Dani left. I was cleaning up the dishes and left overs. Just then, Elizabeth came in the kicthen. She had a little smirk playing on her lips.

"What are you smirking about?" I asked.

"I can't tell you." Elizabeth laughed a little.

"Why?" I asked.

"Because I can't." Elizabeth said.

I rolled my eyes and put the left overs away. "Let's just say that someone has a little crush on you."

"Ok and? It's not like I get girls numbers everyday." I shurgged.

"But-" Elizabeth cut herself off. "You'll see, Carlos."
