Niall's been on tour for 2 weeks now, which means he still has 2 weeks left. Right now I'm getting Caleb and Elaine ready so we can walk to work. We walked to Starbucks and I ordered my coffee and a hot coco to put in sippie cups for Elaine and Caleb. I handed them their drinks and kept walking to work with Caleb on my hip and Elaine holding my hand. We got to work and I let us inside my studio. Livie has been coming with me to help out with the kids while I worked.

"Livie!" Elaine yelled, jumping into Livie's arms. My phone started ringing, Niall.

"Hey." I picked up

"Hey. How's it going?"

"Good. We just got to work. You?"

"Good. I have a surprise for you."

"Oh, and what would that be?"

"You'll see it later today."

"Ok. Elaine! Don't touch that baby!"

"What's she got?"

"An expensive mic."

"Ahh."

"Elaine, wanna talk to daddy before he has to go?"

"Daddy!" Elaine yelled

"You're on speaker babe." I said

"Hi baby girl!"

"Hi daddy!"

"Are you being a good girl for mummy?"

"Yea. Mummy got me coffee."

"What?!" Niall yelled

"Baby, calm down, it's not coffee, it's hot coco, she's just telling everyone it's coffee." I said

"Ohhh ok. Did you trick daddy?"

"Yea." Elaine said laughing. She figured out how to switch it to FaceTime.

"Wow, aren't you a smart girl?" Niall said

"What'd she do?" I asked

"She figured out how to switch it to FaceTime."

"Damn. Wait, are you at the airport?"

"Yea, I've got a flight soon."

"I thought you were in France for another 2 days."

"My schedule changed."

"Ahhh ok."

"I gotta go, I'll talk to you guys later, ok?"

"Ok daddy." Elaine said then hung up and handed me the phone

"Elaine!" I texted Niall

Addy: sorry, Elaine hung up on you

Niall: stinker, it's ok. I gotta go. Love you

Addy: love you too

Niall: bye my Adds :)

Addy: bye my Nialler :)

We had just gotten home from work and I was making dinner.

"Mummy, can I have ice cream?"

"No baby, we're gonna eat dinner."

"But mummy."

"No Elaine. Now go get washed up for dinner."

"Ok mummy." A couple minutes later she came back with a chocolate ice cream cone

"Elaine! I said no ice cream! Where did you get that?"

"Daddy."

"Elaine, daddy's not-" Then Niall walked in. "Niall." I said and ran up to him. "I missed you so much." I cried

"I missed you too baby. Shhh. It's ok. I'm here now."

I pulled out of the hug and kissed Niall. God, I missed those lips

"Where's Caleb?"

"He's sleeping."

"Ahh ok. Oh my god! You've got a little bump!"

"Yup." I said, popping the p

"How are you feeling? Are you ok?"

"Yea, I'm fine. I'm feeling pretty good."

"Good. God, I missed you so much." He said and kissed me again. We walked into Caleb's room and he woke up right as Niall walked in

"Daddy?" Caleb said, tears rolling down his face at the sight of his daddy. He missed Niall so much.

"Yea bubba. It's me." Niall said, picking him up. He's home.
