Ellie's POV

I peeled open my eyes and rubbed the sleep out of them. My head was absolutely killing, I can't even remember what happened last night and I don't know what made me drink so much but I knew that I drank a lot. I sat up very slowly feeling worse than ever, I forgot how horrible hangovers feel. Then I turned to my side and checked the clock.

10:57

I groaned loudly. I eventually stood up off of my bed and looked at myself in the long mirror. My hair was all over the place, my eyes were slightly puffy and red, which means I must have cried last night and I had massive bags under my eyes. Also to mention I didn't take my makeup off last night so I looked like a panda. I looked terrible. I picked up a makeup wipe and cleaned my face. I tied my hair up in a ponytail so it didn't look as bad and then I headed downstairs.
I went straight to the kitchen and the first person I saw was Tony, he was making breakfast while Megan was helping, well she was standing there watching. I sat on one of the chairs and rested my head on the table.

"Well look who it is Megan, sleeping beauty has awoken from her sleep" Tony said louder than my head could take.

"Keep your voice down Tone!" I moaned as my head was pounding.

"A cooked breakfast will help cure your hangover" He said.
Breakfast was finally ready, he cooked bacon and eggs with toast. It smelt so good, it was making my tummy rumble. Words do not describe how much I love Tony right now. We were all sitting at the table eating and after a while Megan had finished before both of us.

"Mumma, can I go play now?" She asked with puppy dog eyes, she knows I can't resist them.

"Fine! Only because you asked nicely" I said as she sprinted off upstairs to play with her toys. I turned my attention towards Tony who was silently eating.

"Tone.. What did I do last night? or what happened?" I asked worried to know the answer.

"We just talked about a few things, you cried, I comforted you and then I stayed the night to make sure you were okay this morning" He said like it was nothing.

"But why did I cry?" I asked.

"You said that Katie was a bitch to you and you said that it really got to you because you hadn't done anything wrong to her" I could tell he was hiding something.. It was the way he looked and the fact that he was playing with his food.

"Aaand?" I pushed the subject, he then sighed.

"You said that you still loved Jaime" I just stopped whatever I was doing and froze. Tony just looked at me.

Why did I say that for? Is he just kidding around? Why did I open my drunken mouth last night?

I didn't know what to say to him, I just sat there and picked at my food. I could still feel Tonys eyes on me.

"It doesn't matter if you do Ellie, like I said last night, you can't help who you fall in love with" He said.

"Yes, but I've fallen in love with the man who broke my heart, why do I still love him for? He hurt me" I genuinely didn't want to talk about this again. Tony stood up, sat in the chair next to me and he took my hands in his.

"Everything will be okay, I promise you!" he said and kissed my knuckle, "Jaime is just an idiot when it comes to girls" I wasn't so sure about this, this is such a fucked up situation.

Jaime's POV

I was woken up with kisses which made me smile. I opened my eyes and saw Katie sitting on my stomach just looking at me.

"Good morning beautiful" I smiled.

"Hey handsome, you busy today?" She asked.

"Not that I know of, why?"

"We haven't had a proper day together in ages, I just miss spending time with my boyfriend" She said with a sad face.

"Why don't we just watch films and cuddle up all day?" I asked, that instantly made her smile from ear to ear.

"Sounds perfect babe" She kissed me quick on the lips and then got up. She left room and left me all alone. As I was laying there, I was thinking about the dream I had last night..

~~~Jaime's dream~~~

"I love you Jaime" Ellie said to me as we were cuddling together on the couch.

"I love you too beautiful" I smiled and placed my lips against hers, our lips just moulded together perfectly.

"Mummy, daddy Megan is being mean to me" Our son Jacob whined as he ran up to us.

"No I'm not, he's lying" Megan said as she walked in the room looking annoyed.

"Look, you two are brother and sister, your suppose to love each other not fight every single second of the day" Ellie said.

"Megan just stop being mean to your little brother, just go play and be nice to each other okay?" I said sternly. They nodded and left the room together.

"They may be a handful but I wouldn't change my life for the world, Im so lucky to have you three" I said to Ellie.

"I feel the same, my life is perfect with you and them in it" She smiled.

~~~End of dream~~~

I shook my head wanting to forget that. That dream felt so real, it was crazy. I'm not going to lie there are still feelings there for Ellie still but I can't, I just can't love Ellie because I'm with Katie and we've built a life together in these few years. Also Ellie doesn't even love me anymore so there's no point throwing my life away with Katie for nothing. I stood up and put something comfy on so I wasn't just in my underwear. Then I went downstairs.
I walked in the lounge to see Katie sitting on the couch looking through different films.

"Which one, Toy Story or Pirates of the Caribbean first?" She asked as she saw me walk in the room.

"Toy Story obviously!" I said excited. Toy Story was my favourite film.

"Okay, you put the DVD in and I'll make us some popcorn" She smiled and ran to the kitchen. I picked up the DVD off of the coffee table and went over to the tv. I slid the DVD in and plonked on the couch. Then my phone buzzed.

Ellie: do you think you could look after Megan sometime today, Tony's taking me out later and my mum can't look after her?

Damn it. Of course I'd love to see Megan but her and Katie don't exactly get along very well. Also why is tony taking her out for? Are they seeing each other? No. Tony would have told me. I hesitated but I replied.

Me: of course, being her round whenever:)

I placed my phone in my pocket and then Katie came back in with a huge bowl of popcorn. She sat next to me and I pressed play.

"Um babe?" I said kind of worried.

"Mhm?" She looked at me.

"I-um, Ellie can't look after Megan today so she asked if I could and I said okay" I didn't want to look at her.

"Why? this is our day and also your little brat hates me!" She said annoyed and crossed her arms.

"She's not a little brat! That's my daughter you're talking about" I raised my voice.

"Jaime baby, she is though and her bitch of a mother" She said smiling like she had done something right. Okay I was beyond pissed now.

"My daughter is not a brat and Ellie is not a bitch at all!" I raised my voice more getting more irritated and furious.

"Why do you always defend her? She's your ex girlfriend that you broke up with, why do you care so much?" She shouted. I know why I care its because I still love her and its now driving me crazy. But Katie can't find out so I had to lie.

"I don't care about her, all I care about my daughter and she is my daughters mother" It made a lot more sense my head.

"Whatever Jaime, I know you still like her. Ever since she came back, you've been acting differently around me and I can't take it, I'm going for a walk" She shouted as she got up and walked out of the room. Me and her never fight so I knew this was bad.
But the thing is, is that I just sat there, I didn't run after her or anything because I knew what she said was true. I heard the door slam and left me in complete silence. Leaving me with my thoughts.

What do I do now? I do love Ellie but she doesn't love me, it's obviously she likes Tony now. Why is life always so fucking complicated for me?

~~~~~~~

Its been about 20 minutes since Katie left. I sat there debating whether not to go look for her, but suddenly a heard the front door open and close loudly. She walked in with makeup all over her face and her eyes were red and puffy.

"Jaime, I'm so sorry! I was a complete bitch and you don't deserve that" She said as she came to sit next to me.

"What you said was out of line, Ellie might be my ex but I still care for her!" I said. She looked down at her feet and sighed.

"I'm sorry okay? What more can I say?" she asked. I just thought for a moment and made a decision I probably might regret but it's all about taking chances.

"Katie I can't do this anymore" I stated plainly.

"W-what? No, no you can't break up with me over this!" She said slightly pissed and upset.

"It's not just over this Katie, I just can't do this.."

"I knew it! you do still love her!!" She shouted.

"Yeah. Yeah okay maybe I do love her still so what? This is why I don't think us is a good idea anymore" I said. She started to cry. Then the doorbell rang.

"Fucking great" She mumbled grumpily, I frowned and went to get the door. I opened the door to see Ellie holding a very smiley Megan.

"I'm sorry about this Jaime, but thanks for looking after her" she smiled, I've always loved her smile.

Speak Jaime you idiot you're staring and she's looking at you weirdly.

"Oh, um it's not a problem, I love seeing her" I smiled as I took her off of Ellie. She just smiled.

"Well I better go, and thank you so much again" She said and waved again. She hopped in her car and drove off, me and Megan stood there waving goodbye.

"How's my beautiful girl today?" I asked her. She smiled widely.

"I'm good daddy, is Katie here?" She hesitantly asked.

"Yes, but not for long" I whispered the last bit. She just grinned. I walked in the lounge to see that Katie had gone, I frown and put Megan on the couch.

"Stay here for a second princess, daddy will be right back" I said and she just nodded and played with her doll she had brought with her.
I walked into the kitchen, no one was there. Then I saw a few bags in the hall. I walked closer and saw Katie walking down the stairs with another bag.

"You're actually leaving, where are you going to stay?" I asked, I was genuinely concerned.

"Don't act like you care and I'm staying at my friends house" She said as she pushed past me.

"I do still care about you, you know?" I said. She just huffed.

"Here" She said handing me her set of keys back to me, "bye Jaime" She sadly smiled, opened the front door and left.

This is all real, she's gone..
