Everything starts with Vida and Niall watching a movie.
"No! Just don't", says Vida.
"No", says Niall.
"No! No! No", says Vida frustrated.
"She's so beautiful, why would anyone do that to her", says Niall.
"No!", says Vida.
"I can't, I can't do this", says Vida.
"This is scary", says Vida hiding behind Niall's shoulder.
Niall tries to hide behind Vida.
"Niall, I'm shorter than you, you can't hide behind me", says Vida.
"I'm scared", says Niall.
"Ok, you close my eyes and I'll close yours", says Niall.
"Ok", says Vida.
They close each other's eyes.
"Now! It's much better", says Niall.
"I don't see this working", says Vida removing her hands off Niall's eyes.
Suddenly, someone opens the door.
Someone shouts in the movie.
Niall and Vida shout in unison.
"Relax! Relax, it's me", says Liam switching off the TV.
"Why did you switch it off? We were watching it", says Vida.
"I could see how much you were enjoying", says Liam sarcastically.
"So! What happened?", asks Vida.
"It's your report, not mine, but you are so chill about this", says Liam sitting by Vida.
"So? What happened?", asks Vida.
"Take a look", says Liam giving the folder to Vida.
She opens it.
"No way!", says Vida.
"What happened?", asks Niall taking the folder from Vida.
"Is that true?", asks Vida.
"Yeah", says Liam.
"Oh my god!", says Niall.
"I know, you've to tell this to our parents", says Liam.
"That's why I didn't worry about it from the beginning", says Vida.
"Wow! This is amazing", says Niall.
"I know", says Vida hugging Niall.
"I think, I was the one who got the report, so I deserve something", says Liam.
"Like what?", asks Vida.
"Token of appreciation", says Liam.
"Okay", says Vida.
"Really?", says Liam.
"Yeah", says Vida.
"Close your eyes", says Vida.
Liam closes his eyes.
"Ready?", asks Vida.
"Yes", says Liam.
Vida moves closer to Liam and kisses him on his cheek.
"Wow", says Liam sarcastically.
"Such an amazing gift", he says sarcastically.
"I know", says Vida.
"I was expecting something else", says Niall.
"Shut up, it's your fault that you walked into our bedroom", says Vida.
"True", says Liam.
"So, what does this report mean?", asks Niall.
"Well! The doctors said that it's amazing how Vida's recovered in the last one year, there is 65% recovery", says Liam.
"Wow", says Niall.

*1 month later*
*Louis's and Summer's apartment*
"Stop! Stop crying", says Louis covering his ears with a pillow.
"Louis, go and see her", says Summer.
"No, you go, I went yesterday when she started crying", says Louis.
"You mean today afternoon", says Summer.
"Yeah", says Louis.
"Just go", says Summer.
"You are the mother, go", says Louis.
"You are the father, go", says Summer.
Scarlett starts crying even more.
"Louis, go", says Summer pushing him off the bed.
"Alright", says Louis getting up.
Louis goes takes Scarlett into his arms.
"Don't cry", says Louis yawning.
Scarlett starts crying even more.
"Maybe she's hungry", says Louis looking at Summer.
Summer gets up.
She takes Scarlett into her arms.
Scarlett stops crying.
"Well! Be with your Mom then", says Louis.
"I couldn't sleep for the last two days properly", says Louis.
" Even I didn't", says Summer.
----------------------------*_*-------------------------
*Vida's and Liam's place*
"Alright Mom, we'll think about it", says Vida talking on the phone.
"I don't think so, you know what it's getting late and Liam's calling me, so I'll call you later", says Vida.
"Mom, no, you are not doing that", says Vida.
"Mom, I know Augustus is coming to Ireland", says Vida.
"Ok, mom, bye", says Vida cutting the call.
"Should I ask her?", asks Liam.
"No, I will ask her", says Niall sarcastically.
Niall and Liam were hiding behind a wall.
"Ask her Liam, she won't kill you", says Niall.
"You do it", says Liam pushing Niall.
"Wifey", says Niall going towards Vida.
"Hi", says Vida.
"What's up? You look irritated", asks Niall.
"Yeah, Mom, she's annoying me", says Vida.
"Baby, is always like that", says Niall.
"Anyways, I was wondering if we could go out on a cousin date, it's been a long time since we went out", says Niall.
"Yeah, we should do that", says Vida.
"Done, tomorrow night", says Niall.
"Okay", says Vida.
Niall goes towards Liam who was behind the wall.
"Done?", asks Liam.
"Yes, she agreed", says Niall.
"You guys went out several times, I didn't understand why you asked me to go", asks Niall.
"It's because it's been a long time since I asked her out on a date", says Liam.
"Go! Go to her", says Niall pushing Liam.
"Hello there", says Liam.
"Hi", says Vida.
"Did you agree?", asks Liam.
"Yes! I did, are you fine with that?", asks Vida.
"Of course I am, I'm so happy that you agreed", says Liam.
"Okay! You should plan something then, I don't want you to be alone", says Vida.
"Alone? Why would I be alone?", asks Liam.
"Because I am going out", says Vida.
"With Niall", says Vida.
"With Niall", says Liam.
He thinks. "With Niall?", asks Liam surprised.
"Yeah, Niall asked me out on a cousin date", says Vida.
"Niall, just come-", starts saying Liam but is interrupted by a baby crying.
"Who's that?", asks Niall coming out.
All of them look out of the window into Louis's house.
"It's Scarlett", says Vida.
"I think Summer needs help, I'm going", says Vida grabbing the keys.
"We are coming too", says Liam.
Three of them go to Louis's house.
"Just stop her from crying", says Louis.
"I'm trying", says Summer.
Liam rings the bell.
"Who is it at this time?", asks Summer.
"Maybe it's the people living in this apartment, asking us to learn to control our baby's cry", says Louis opening the door.
"Great! It's Liam, she's going to cry even more", says Louis.
"Shut up", says Liam walking in.
Vida and Niall also walk in.
"Wow! Your hair looks like a birds nest", says Niall looking at Louis.
"Don't want such compliments in this situation", says Louis sarcastically.
"Aww", says Vida taking Scarlett into her arms.
"Thank you", says Summer.
She goes and falls on the couch beside Louis.
"Wow, you guys look tired", says Liam.
"Thanks for noticing it", says Louis.
"How did you guys know that we wanted help?", asks Summer.
"We could hear Scarlett cry, which reminds me, Niall why did you say that you want to take Vida on a date, when all that was my idea", says Liam angrily.
Scarlett stops crying.
"Wow", says Summer.
"I was just having fun", says Niall.
"Shut up", says Liam.
"Guys, I just gonna go and sleep", says Louis.
"Me too", says Summer going behind him.
"I'm going to call Ashley", says Niall going into the balcony.
"So, what's up with you", says Liam putting his arms around Vida.
"What are you doing?", says Vida moving away.
"I've Scarlett in my arms", says Vida.
"Now you'll teach how to romance with my wife?", asks Liam.
"Maybe", says Vida.
"So, is the plan still on?", asks Liam.
"Yes, I'm going out with Niall", says Vida teasing Liam.
"Alright, I'll take it as a yes for the date", says Liam.
Vida chuckles and asks, "why are you being so weird and asking Niall to ask me?"
"I don't know, I guess, I'm feeling shy to ask you?", says Liam.
"You are kidding, right?", asks Vida.
"What's the point if I ask you directly, it should be different every time", says Liam.
"Answer accepted", says Vida.
"Great! So, I'll make arrangements", says Liam.
"Aww! She's so cute", says Vida staring at Scarlett.
"We can have one", says Liam.
"No, I'm being spared from the possibility of bearing children with your intelligence and looks", says Vida.
"Just imagine them with that", says Liam.
"No, I want them to be like me", says Vida.
"No, I want them to be like me", says Liam.
"Wait! You just said that you want our children to be like you", says Liam.
"Yeah?", says Vida.
"It means you are thoughts of us having a child!", says Liam.
"No! No! I don't", says Vida.
"Yes, you do, stop lying", says Liam.
"I'm not completely recovered", says Vida.
"But you did, a lot, that's progress", says Liam.
"Scarlett! I'll put her down to sleep in the cot and come", says Vida walking away.
" I'm so satisfied", says Niall rubbing his stomach.
"When did you go into the kitchen?", asks Liam.
"When you and Vida were busy admiring Scarlett and talking about your children", says Niall.
"Yeah, I'm glad that she's at least thinking about it", says Liam.
"I don't think so, she's said that she's not ready even if she recovers", says Niall.
"I know, I'm not forcing her either", says Liam.
"So, when is the date?", asks Niall.
"Tomorrow", says Liam.
-----------------------------*_*---------------------------
Vida had to be with Scarlett for that night. So Niall and Liam went home.
*At Vida's and Liam's place*
It was 5:20 in the morning, Liam gets a call.
"Liam?", says his father.
"What Dad? Why did you call me early in the morning?", asks Liam half asleep.
"Listen, we will be renovating our house", says his father.
Liam falls asleep with the phone in his ear.
"Are you listening?", asks his father.
Liam gets up.
"Yes! Yes!", says Liam.
"So, as we are renovating our house I want you to come here, to Wolverhampton and help us with something", says his father.
"Yeah, for how many days?", asks Liam.
He falls asleep again.
"For two weeks", says his father.
"Is that fine? Bring Vida along with you if you want", says his father.
"Liam? Are you listening to me?", asks his father.
He doesn't get any response.
"Liam", shouts his father.
"Yes! Yes! Alright", says Liam getting up.
"Good! So you and Vida, two weeks, here, or less than that maybe, inform me before you come", says his father.
"Yeah, ok", says Liam.
He cuts the call.
Liam falls asleep.
"Wait, did Dad just say two weeks, in Wolverhampton?", thinks Liam getting up.
"Oh no! What did I do?", thinks Liam.
---------------------------*_*---------------------------
*Later that day*
"I've got some news", says Sydney.
"Augustus is going to Ireland for a week", says Sydney.
"So you are going to stay with Kyle?", asks Ritu.
"Why do the two of you always think about Kyle?", asks Sydney.
"You know what, let's go out and have dinner", says Ric.
"Alright", says Ritu.
"Anyone up for it?", asks Ric.
"No", say Harry and Sydney in unison.
"Okay, see you guys", says Ritu leaving along with Ric.
"Everyone is going on date, I want to go too", says Sydney pointing at Harry.
"I'm going on a blind date", says Harry.
"Oh! It's been a long time since I did that", says Sydney.
"I can set up one for you if you want?", asks Harry.
"Really?", asks Sydney.
"Yeah, but are you sure?", asks Harry.
"Yes....yes...yes", says Sydney.
"Alright. I'll call my friend", says Harry grabbing his phone and going into the balcony.
When Harry comes back, he finds Sydney deeply thinking about something.
"Sydney", says Harry snapping his fingers.
"Yeah?", says Sydney.
"Harry, actu-", starts saying Sydney but Harry interrupts her by saying, " I know you are confused, it's because, you like Kyle, even though you pretend to hate him, you like his from inside, you are just playing around him, that's why you can't go on a blind date"
"Yeah, but how do you know that?", asks Sydney.
"Just because I am single now, it doesn't mean I can't talk from my experience", says Harry.
"But, what about your friend whom you called for the date?", asks Sydney.
"Don't worry, he didn't pick up my call anyways", says Harry.
"Now, what do I do?", asks Sydney.
"Go to Kyle and tell him that you like him", says Harry.
"Maybe, but I don't want to tell it right now", says Sydney.
----------------------------*_*--------------------------
*At the date*
"So, why a date suddenly?", asks Vida.
"One, because, it's been a long time, two because I did something stupid this morning", says Liam.
"I've to tell you something about today morning", says Vida.
"Me too", says Liam.
"You go first", says Liam.
"Alright, so today morning, Summer realised that she's out of diapers for the baby, so I went to the shop nearby and I ran into Cary", says Vida.
"Cary?", asks Liam.
"Chris's wife", says Vida.
"Oh!", says Liam.
"She said that she got to know what Chris did to me through a friend of mine she met in a restaurant, so she was angry with Chris because he didn't tell her about it and Chris called me after a while and asked me why did I tell his wife about that? And I said I didn't tell anything and he cut the call", says Vida.
"Whoa!", says Liam.
"I know, imagine all that crap going down in the morning, it was so bad", says Vida.
" So, what did you want to tell?", asks Vida.
"Dad called me in the morning, my parents are renovating the house", says Liam.
"Wow, that's amazing", says Vida.
"And.....they want us to come to Wolverhampton for two weeks or something or at least a week, my dad asked me whether I'd do that or, no and I said yes, accidentally", says Liam.
"Accidentally?", asks Vida.
"I slept twice or thrice while talking to him", says Liam.
"Later, I called my dad and told him that it's not possible. But, he told me to come and not bring you, because you don't go there because of Vanessa's thing", says Liam.
"Great, happy journey, enjoy a week without me", says Vida.
"Vida?", says Liam grabbing her hand.
"You have to face it, someday or other", says Liam.
"I know, but I'm not ready for it", says Vida.
"Why aren't you ready for anything?", asks Liam.
"Because you know that I'll do something if I want to do it only", says Vida.
"I know, but, I came to Ireland every time with you and now, I want you to see the place where I grew up", says Liam.
"The place where Vanessa died", says Vida.
"I want you to do this one thing for me, please", says Liam.
"It's time to face your fear", says Liam.
"Liam, I can't do it", says Vida.
"Vida, you are just scared that you'll lose her, but trust me, nothing will happen", says Liam.
"Liam", says Vida.
"Everything will be fine and I'm not saying because I want you to come with me, I'm saying because I want you to realise that it's high time, face your fear, prove it wrong", says Liam.
"Please? For me?", asks Liam.
"I'll have to think about it", says Vida.
---------------------------*_*---------------------------
*A few days later*
"Yes Dad, only I'm coming", says Liam packing his bag and talking on the phone.
"You should go with him", says Summer.
"I thought about it and told him that I cannot do it, it's about Vanessa and you know how am I when it comes to her", says Vida.
"I know", says Summer.
"Anyways, I'm making something for myself to eat, do you want something?", asks Summer.
"No", says Vida.
Vida sighs and closes her eyes.
*Vida's POV*
"Hey! Open your eyes", says someone.
I open my eyes. It was Vanessa.
"Hi", she says hugging me.
"Hi", I say hugging her.
"What the hell are you doing?", she says slapping my arm.
"What? What did I do?", I ask.
"You are not going to Wolverhampton just because I died there? Are you serious?", asks Vanessa.
"It's because I'm scared that I'll lose you, I won't be able to see you like this", I say.
"Idiot, your husband asked you to do something for him the first time and you rejected him, why do you think that you'll lose me, no matter what happens I'll be with you, you go there, see our house over there, look at the places I went to, it's a beautiful place Vida, Liam never asked you for anything, he always did everything you want, now come on, it's time that you do something for him", says Vanessa.
"But I'm not ready for it", I say.
"When will be ready, tomorrow? In a month? In a year? Time never waits for anyone, come on Vida, trust me, nothing will happen", says Vanessa.
"You promise?", I say with tears coming out of my eyes.
"I promise", says Vanessa kissing my forehead.
I open my eyes. I can't stop getting her in my dreams.
--------------------------*_*--------------------------
"Hey, I'm leaving", says Liam.
"I'm going to miss you mate", says Niall hugging Liam.
"Seriously?", asks Liam.
"No", says Niall.
"I'm going to have fun with Vida", says Niall.
"You better not", says Liam.
"I will", says Niall.
"Where is Vida? Why didn't she come out till now?", asks Liam.
Vida opens the door.
"Hey, I was just leaving", says Liam.
"You think you are the only one going?", asks Vida putting her suitcase in front of Liam.
"What? You are coming?", asks Liam.
"I can't stay away from my husband for a week", says Vida.
"But, you said that you are not ready for it", says Liam.
"I thought about it, I guess I can do this much for you", says Vida.
Liam kisses Vida.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, what about me?", asks Niall.
"You stay here and take care of our house", says Liam pulling away.
"No", says Niall.
"What will I do without you guys?", asks Niall.
"It's just a few days Niall", says Vida.
"I'll miss you", he says hugging her.
"I'll miss you too", says Vida hugging him.
"Okay, it's time", says Liam.
"Alright", says Vida letting go of her arms. Niall doesn't leave her.
"Niall, let me go", says Vida.
"No. I won't", says Niall.
"Nialler, everything will be fine, you go to Ashley's place and surprise her", says Vida.
"That's a nice idea", says Niall pulling away.
-----------------------------*_*-----------------------
"Yes! Promise, I'll call you and tell you the day I am starting from there", says Vida talking on the phone.
"I know you'll miss me", says Vida.
"How could you do that, now who can handle Scarlett while she's crying?", asks Summer.
"Everything will be fine, I'll call you", says Vida.
"Promise?", asks Summer.
"Promise", says Vida.
Summer cuts the call.
Niall grabs his phone and says "hello?"
"Yeah, she's kinda busy", says Summer.
