chapter twenty one

Camila's POV:

After yesterday's really exhausting day of playing around with Kiara, since she's feeling better, I don't remember falling asleep in my bed next to both of them.

I woke up after some confusing dream which made me sweat a little, to these two much-alike creatures sleeping next to me.

It's literally wonder how Kiara is comfortable in Shawn's arms, she doesn't know him for so long, but she would rather fall asleep in his hands now, than mine.

It felt like she's complete, all she ever missed, fitted right there in front of me.

Maybe she memorized him from all the pictures I showed her, or just Shawn being empathetic and sweet like he always was, drove her attention and she couldn't adore.

I watched how she fell and rose on his chest, how he breathed softly. I loved falling asleep on his chest. Listening to his heart calm as I laid on top of him, in silence we would fall asleep.

I checked my phone, it's already November, but Christmas is near! If I will be celebrating Christmas this year from all bills I need to pay, I just want my daughter to have warm place to live and fall asleep. God - help me.

I remembered I've job interview again, today. I got up, brushed my teeth and did just a little bit makeup to make a good impression, braided my hair and dressed up in white shirt and black trousers.

As I came out of bathroom I heard Shawn talking on his phone with someone. It might be wrong but I stalked his phonecall.

"Is everything alright?" He asked someone.

"Yeah of course"

Silence.

"You can tell me anything, c'mon"

He sounded like he spoke with someone he feels comfortable.

"Okay, make your mind, you tempt me"

"Okay, okay, goodbye"

He must ended call with small sigh as I walked in, I saw Kiara crawling on top of him.
He spotted me and looked at me for little too long until he spoke "you look amazing" with smile.

"Thank you"

"Where are you going?" He asked me

"I've job interview, can you take care of Kiara while I'm there?" He nodded smiling "of course"

I went to my daughter who clapped her hands as she saw me, her high pitched voice calling me.
"Hey baby girl" I took her in my arms "had a good sleep" she leaned into my neck, that was the most beautiful thing that person can experiment in life.

"Mommy is gonna be back soon" I kissed her head few times, she giggled "behave" I warned with smile and put he back onto the bed. I just realized that Shawn watched us with smile that could buy everyone's heart.

"Call me if anything goes wrong" I nervously said at him and he nodded. There was uncomfortable silence between us, I didn't know what to do.

"Okay I'm gonna go now" I said turning on my heel, walking away blush on my face, goddamn I feel embarrassed.

No one's POV:

Aaliyah played with Kiara, trying to teach her some words she came up with. Shawn roamed over apartment searching for something.

"Isn't it rude to do that?"

"What?" He nervously asked.

"Sniff around apartment that's not yours?" She asked holding Kiara in her lap as she messed with her hair.

"Yes, but this is important"

"How important? You're doing it since Camila is not home"

Shawn rolled his eyes, barking at her "when I do it, I'll tell you, now it's none of your business"

"I'll tell Camila" he turned to face her "for God's sake, sake of me and Kiara don't"

"Then it's serious, I thought you're in search of condoms or something -" he cut her chuckle off "language Aaliyah!"

She smirked at his dad attitude she missed because he was sometimes like that when she was little kid.

"It's serious and I will tell you when I'm done" he turned to open one more drawer and he saw it. Just nodding to remember where that something is, he closed and went to his sister and daughter.

"This is your dad" Kiara followed Aaliyah's finger which she pointed at Shawn.

"Say Dada" Aaliyah smiled as Kiara's lips slowly parted to say something.
"C'mon Kiara, dada" but instead she giggled and almost fell backwards her small butt landed on soft pillow.

"Don't Aaliyah" Shawn said after blushing, his heart raced if she's actually going to say it.

"Why not?" She asked.

"Don't force her, she will say it"

"She won't if she doesn't know you're her father, no one says that to her" he kept quiet because she was right but he tried to change the subject saying "Amelie called"

Aaliyah snorted "why?"

"She's back home and we didnt talk for a long time"

"Like two days?" She asked, he rolled his eyes "stop being pain in the ass"

"Language dad!" She laughed and he did too.

"We didn't break up" he added "you should" Aaliyah commented.

"She did nothing wrong"

"Camila did nothing wrong"

"That's a different story -"

"How?"

He breathed in and out, staying silent.
"See, no difference, God Shawn you're blind and stupid. Can't you see that she loves you, can't you see that you love her too"

"She doesn't love me Aaliyah, once she did, but now no and I -" he looked away from his sister to his daughter "she just let me in to be father"

"You think she would do that if she hated you?"

"I don't she hates me but I don't think she loves me either, she's like I don't know - neutral"

"It's not that way" she said to him "she never got over you, God Shawn, you two were lovesick" he chuckled remembering them in high school, he was always protective of her, from every jerk school had to every girl who were rude to her.

"God, she was your first kiss, must be your first time too"

He locked his eyes with her's "we're not talking about my sexual life"

She laughed "we're not. I just know, since you two were inseparable. Now literally you two have this little bond between connecting" she looked at Kiara who ran around the table then to him.

"My Sky" he picked her up and kissed her cheek "I've never thought coming back would bring me back to you" he moved hair from her eyes "you're so beautiful, baby" He kissed her small nose, sniff earning his attention.

Aaliyah shed small tears.
"Liyah don't cry" Kiara looked at her aunt, "awnty lia"

"Oh my God!" Aaliyah jumped up and clapped, more tears streaming down her face "oh my God, she called me aunt!"
