*I'm not going to lie...I didn't feel like posting. Lol.*

2 days later

Alison POV:
"Emily, if you miss Eden's birthday, neither of us will forgive you." I say jokingly.

Five days.

Five days without her smile.

Her laugh.

Her morning voice.

Her kisses.

Her hugs.

Her love.

Her.

Five days without her.

I stay for a couple more hours until I decide to leave.

I'm walking out of the hospital when I bump into someone.

They spill their coffee all over them self and hiss in pain.

"I am so sorry! I am such a klutz!" I say.

"It's fine. I was going to change, anyways." A males voice says. Not just some guy. A British guy.

I lift my head up and there is a pair of dark brown eyes staring into my light blue ones.

He has short brown hair, and brown facial hair.

"Uh, hi." I say, staring at the handsome man.

"Hi. I'm Wren, and you are...?" He asks, holding out his hand.

"Alison." I say with a smile and shake his hand.

"What's got you in a hurry?" He asks.

"I have two kids at home, and I need to take a shower and get some food. That isn't from this place." I laugh, and Wren does also.

"Alright. I'll see you around." He says.

"Bye, Alison."

"Bye, Wren."

He's nice.

And he didn't look at me weird when I mentioned that fact that I have kids.

I walk out of the hospital to my car, and drive home.

---

"I'm home!" I call out.

Jason walks out with Eden in his arms, and smiles.

"Hey, Ali." He says.

"Mama!" Eden squeals.

This isn't right.

This should be Emily and Eden. Not Jason and Eden.

She wiggles out of Jason's arms and he puts her down.

She runs over to me and wraps her arms around my legs.

"Where's Charlotte?" I ask Jason as I pick Eden up.

"Oh, uh, she's taking a nap in her room." He tells me, pointing back towards Charlotte's room with his thumb.

"Thank you for watching the girls for me." I say, and hug him.

"Of course. Anytime. I gotta go to work. I'll see you later, Al." He says with a smile as he pulls away.

"Bye. Drive safe." I tell him.

"I will. You're too good to be left along on this world." He says before walking out.

I sniffle, and turn around.

I walk into Charlotte's room and see her sleeping in just a diaper with a pacifier the size of her face.

I laugh lightly as tears well up in my eyes, and walk back out.

"Wanna watch a movie with mama?" I ask Eden.

"Yeah!" She giggles.

I smile and sit her on the couch and go to Netflix.

"Which movie?" I ask her.

"Fwozen." She giggles.

"Offf course." I sigh, dragging out the of.

Five minutes after the movie starts, Eden yells.

"What?!" I ask.

"No dis one." She says.

I roll my eyes and look at her.

"Which one, then?" I ask.

"Da Lion King." She says with a sweet smile.

[...]

"Mama! Mama!"

I'm work up at two in the morning from Eden yelling and crying for me and Charlotte screaming her head off.

I walk into Charlotte's room first and pick her up.

"Shh..." I whisper, and rock her back and forth.

"Mama!" Eden wails.

I walk into her room and see her sitting in her bed with tears falling down her cheeks.

"What's wrong, girly?" I ask.

"Mama!" She cries.

I pick her up and carry both of the girls to mine and Emily's room.

I lay them down and then crawl underneath the covers.

"Emmy..." Eden whimpers.

She starts quietly sobbing, and clings onto me for dear life.

I run her back letting a few tears fall and kiss the top of her head.

"I know, baby. I know." I whisper, and kiss her head.
