-Cassie's POV-
It's been a month since the whole thing went down. Harry talked management out of fighting for custody. Thank god for that. Harry and Chloe had started dating. Which I found them super cute together. Megan and Garrett figured out that the babies were due in the end of may approximetly. Liam and I decided we were going to get married on the 23 of June. And Matthew was 6 now. A lot has happened in just one month. It was hard to believe that Christmas was only a month away. We were going to fly out to Hollywood to spend christmas with his family this year. I haven't even officially met them yet only spoken to them on the phone and via skype so I guess you could say I was just a bit scared. They knew we were getting married and really wanted to meet Darcy and I. They were super nice people from what i've gathered. Suprisingly. This past month has had no drama really. It was relaxing not having to worry all the time. But of course since I had made a fool of myself on live telivision everyone knew me now. So whenever we are out and someone notices it causes a bit of a scene. Remember how I said I wanted to be a teacher well I applied for a college in town. It was scary I didn't remember what it felt like to have to submit stuff like that. That was about 2 weeks ago. I have been anxiously waiting for the letter.
"Mummy can we go to the park!" Darcy begged. She was used to being without Matthew now and usually just played by herself. But occasionally she would ask to go to the playground and I couldn't decline. I put on a white oversized sweater and some black leggings and my light grey boots. I put some black jeans on Darcy and a little blue and black plaid shirt and just put on her grey jacket. It was starting to get colder out so I bundled her up in her winter coat. I guess having a teenage mum did have some perks such as you are an incredibly styish kid and others.
The park wasn't very full since most kids were at school but there was one other little girl playing with her mum. Darcy's favourite part of the park was the slide. Which kid didn't love the slide. She would climb up and go down over and over agian and never got bored of it. By now I was fairly cold and I could only assume she would be aswell since her nose had begun to turn red. Matthew's school would almost be out soon as well so we decided it was time to go. We walked back home and got straight into my car and headed to go pick him up. We were a couple minutes early so we just stood outside waiting for them to come out. But when they came out in there little groups I saw Matthew walking beside this cute little girl who had to have been the same age as him. Just then within the blink of an eye I saw him lean in give her a quick kiss and run over towards us as fast as he could. I could tell Darcy saw that because of the look on her face.
"Ooo who was that Matthew" I say purposly trying to mess with him.
"That's Lilah mummy" he says smiling.
"Why did you kiss her girls have cooties! Now you have cooties!" Darcy screamed running away from Matthew with a disgusted look on her face.
"Darcy! Girls and boys dont have cooties. We are suppose to kiss that is normal like mummy and daddy" he said. What is going on. What happened to my little boy that was grossed out by girls last month. Oh Liam will love to hear this. We got home and I began cooking dinner and let the kids watch their cartoons. When Liam got home I thought of a way to show him Matthew's new found opinion. So I straight out kissed him infront of the kids which we didn't tend to do since they got grossed out by it. But after I finished kissing him I heard Darcy's usual complaints but Matthew did not say a word he simply smiled in our direction and turned back to the tv. I could tell Liam was shocked and I brought him into the kitchen to explain it to him.
"Wait so let me get this straight Matthew kissed a girl today?" he asks still obviously confused.
"Yes he kissed Lilah and then ran as fast as he could towards us you should have seen it he didn't even care that we were looking. My goodness I would have been so scared to do that infront of my parents when I was 6 let alone now I still feel weird doing it" I reply to him.
"Well that's because you're a cool mum and he knew you wouldn't care" he says smiling then coming over to kiss me. Which obviously I turned into a makeout session like I usually did. What can you blame me I dont see him all day. It's hard. Which of course like usual got interupted by our little three year old. And at that moment I wish it was Matthew that had walked in because he wouldn't have done anything.
2 weeks had passed and there was now some snow on the ground which the kids loved. They would get dressed up in there snow gear and force me to take them to the park that was across the street. That was the part I didn't like. I would go out there and freeze my but off while they were having fun. Matthew was now off for Christmas break which Darcy was absolutly extatic about. Since she now had her best friend back. I really needed to get Darcy a little friend for her. But the thing is I had no idea how to socialize with other mothes. How often do you find a teenage mom like me that may have something incommon with me. Yeah well close to never. But just as I was thinking this I see a little girl with caramel brown hair come running up to me tapping on my leg.
"Excuse me. Can I play with your kids?" she asked me politly. Okay she was adorable and could have only been 3 aswell. How lucky am I. This little girl was wearing a all purple snow suit and had a little white hat on. She had cute little dark brown eyes. How could I say no to that kind of face. Of course I said yes and she got straight to playing with them. Just then a teenage mom runs up to me. She looked equally as cold as me. Seriously what are the odds. She looked just like the little girl but older of course.
"Hi i'm Jessica. I see you've met my daughter. Her name is Erin" she says smiling towards me sticking out her hand. She could have only been 20 maybe even 19. I could tell this was the beggining of a wonderful friendship. Now my daughter actually had a friend. That wasn't only her brother. I ended up inviting the two of them over to the flat for a bit for some hot chocolate and biscuits. Darcy was so excited to have a friend over she brought her around the whole house showing her all her toys while Matthew just tagged along though he already knew the flat inside and out.
"It's a very nice flat you have. Please dont tell me you raise these two kids all by yourself" she says. I lifted up my hand showing her my ring.
"Nope I just got engaged actually. His name is Liam. What about you. Do you raise her by yourself?" I asked her.
"No actually my boyfriend Bryon lives with us. Well he is her father after all. She pulled out her phone and showed me a picture of them. It must have been a photo they went and got professionally taken. I felt weird pulling out my phone showing her a picture that we had just taken ourselves. "Oh this is a lovely photo your family is truly stunning" she says. We talked for a while which the kids didn't seem to mind and just got to know each other. I explained that Liam wasn't actually the father and she started semi freaking out with I told her that her actual father was Harry Styles from one direction and that I was actually best friends with all of them. It was a good afternoon and before I knew it Liam walked through the door while me and Jessica were still chatting away about our experiences we actually had a lot in common.
"Hello bab- Jessica?" Liam says while stopping dead in his tracks.
"You two know each other" I say for some reason I feel jealousy running through my body. I hear three running children coming down the hall two of them screaming daddy the other just running with them. "and this is Erin her daughter"
"Oh uhm yeah we uh went to school together" Liam mutters. There was something he was not telling me and I knew I would find it out later. Jessica and I traded numbers and they left and as soon as they did I looked to Liam for some answers. He tried not to look back at me and I knew he was trying to keep something from me.
"Liam. Liam what is it" I say suddenly feeling very un easy.
"I uh I kinda used to date Jessica..." he mutters still not making eye contact with me. There was something more to the story.
"Liam please dont keep secrets from me.." I say going upstairs to our room. Whatever there was coming I had a feeling I didn't want the kids to hear it.
"Hey babe it's okay. Well we went to school with each other that wasn't a lie. But you see she always had a little bit of a crush on me. The whole school figured out that Nicole was pregnant and I was the father so after she had the baby Nicole left which you already knew and Jessica wanted to step in which I wasn't complaining I was only nearly 17 I didn't know how to raise a kid. So we ended up dating for about a year and she she helped me out with that first year but then she met Bryon which I assume she told you about she was still dating me when she slept with Bryon. I didn't find out that she was seeing him until I noticed she looked the same way Nicole had looked and I knew it couldn't have been mine because the truth is I was so terrified of getting another girl pregnant that I litterally didn't have sex with her. She then dumped me to go be with Bryon and that's basically it" he says. I could tell it was awkward for him to talk about. I simply nodded my head unable of what to say. Because the truth was. I was actually jealous of Jessica. I don't even know why I mean at this time I was also pregnant and heartbroken still but for some reason I got really jealous thinking about the fact that she basically raised my son for the first year and a bit of his life and I guess my fiance was inlove with her. Which scared me knowing that now I have brought her into our lives again.
