"lets go mommy, we have to hurry up and pack so we can go to uncle marcels house" he said so excited as he pulled on your shirt. you laughed and said "ok, ok mason. lets go". marcel drove you and mason to your house. mason didnt have to think twice before already bolting half way up the stairs. you followed after him but stopped and said

"Marcel can u help me?" he smiled and said "no problem" you both headed upstairs and seen mason with his suitcase all packed and zipped up.

"OK im ready to go mommy?" you laughed then thought about it for a minute then thought hes only been up here for a few seconds by himself. how could he have already been finished packing? the biggest question was......what did he pack exactly?

"mason honey, what exactly did you pack in your bag?" he just giggled then said "everything that i might need for uncle Marcel house." he said in a kinda 'duh' tone like you should have already known. what he think he needs and what i think he needs are two completely different things.

"can you open your bag for mommy so she can see what you actually need" you said. he laughed again then said "fine, ill show you but u cant tell Mr.Fluffy what i have or he will get upset." he said referring to his teddy bear that he obviously didn't put in his bag because it was sitting on the top of his bed. he opened his bag and all you seen were his kind of necessities such as stuffed animals, video games, and his favorite Yankees baseball cap. Marcel laughed then said

"c'mon buddy let me help you pack your bag while mommy packs hers" he said in that fatherly tone again that u loved so much. it made you think of what kind of father he would've been. that calming tone he uses when he talks to mason just makes you wish u wouldve told him you were pregnant that night. as he was helping mason he looked up at you quickly with his green eyes and smiled a genuine smile at you. once they were finished mason said

"thank you uncle Marcel, lets go help mommy now" mason said as he put his little hand in Marcel's big hand. (click here) you smiled slightly as the sight of how picture worthy this father, son moment was but they have no idea. they followed you into your room and mason said

"mommy, can i help u pick out your clothes" you laughed then said "sure baby, pick something out my closet" he ran to your closet in excitement and pulled out a box rather than an outfit. the box said 'old memories' on it. you actually forgot what u had in there yourself so you let him open it. the first thing you seen when he opened was your bright blue prom dress that really didnt have a use except for it being the thing u cried in.

"i think you should wear this" mason said with a bright smile on his face because he didnt know the meanings, secrets, or the value that this dress held. you got a little emotional at this point but u didnt let any tears fall. you looked at the rest of the things that were in that box and there was a picture of you and Marcel kissing 3 years ago. that morning when u guys decided to make cupcakes for breakfast. it was such a silly picture. you both had flour and frosting on you and that picture brought back memories from that day perfectly. you knew almost every word that was said that day. you didnt let mason see this picture because if he did, he would question Marcel being his uncle. there was so many other pictures and things that he gave to you when u guys were together. everytime you looked at something, your eyes would fill up more and more until you just couldnt take it anymore. Marcel seen the things that was in the box too and he looked overwhelmed with many emotions. his eyes turned dark blue then he faced the floor. tears streamed down your face and you ran downstairs.

"here mason, play with your toys for a little bit. ill be right back. i gonna go talk to mommy downstairs" marcel said before leaving to go sit with you. he put his arm around you and you cried on his shoulder. he picked up the prom dress and said "you looked so beautiful that night. im genuinely sorry for the way that ended.....im sorry for the way that we ended. i just wanna know what wouldve happened with our relationship if i would have never cheated on you. you didnt deserve that. i took everything from you....your love and even your virginity. and i feel awful for just leaving with it. i remember the night i told you that u could trust me with your love and all i did was take advantage of it. i broke so many promises and i just- i just wish...." he said before he started to cry and his voice started to crack.(click here) ".....i just wish i could take it all back. i wanna know how our life would have been if i didnt screw up so much." he said trying to stop crying and wipe the tears away.

"you and i both, marcel. its just when i seen my son actually pull out so many things that meant so much to me and he just had no clue....he means everything to me. mason takes all the pain away with everyone of his smiles..... i never forgot about you, marcel. moving on is so hard knowing that we've been through so much together for it to just end the way it did." he wrapped his arm around you tighter.

"like i said (y/n), i wish i could take it all back. i was a high school teenage dirtbag and i didnt know what love was until i met you. and when i lost you......i realized that none of those girls compared to you. they were just a bunch of tools. im older now and i want love again.....though i know you probably wont be the one to give it to me again after what i did to you". we heard little footsteps coming down the stairs then mason was in view.

"here mommy, i brought your bag and my bag downstairs..... and were you crying?" he asked in his little voice. "yes, i was mason" his eyes turned a little bit blue and he had a concerned look in them. "why?" he asked. "because......because i just love you" you said before pulling him into a big hug. he giggled and said "i love you too mommy"
