Leave me

“Don’t.” The familiar voice warned from outside the bathroom door.

“Just leave me alone Calum.” I groan, trying to make myself stop crying.

“Let me in Hads.”

“I can’t.” I whispered, crying now. This is all his fault. I hate him and I hate what he did to me.

I hate that Calum has to pick up the pieces that he broke, and shattered into a thousand pieces.

“Hadley Rose Mattie, I will break down this door.” He stated.

. I wiped my eyes and opened the door. I tried squishing past him, but he wouldn’t budge.

“Hads.” He muttered, eyes swelling up.

“I’m sorry.” I rasped and started to cry again.

He pulled me closer, and I cried.

Today was supposed to be me and Harry’s 3 year anniversary….

Supposed to be….

Calum kissed my forehead.

“Forget him, okay? He’s not worth it Hads…your too good for him.” Calum soothed.

But he’s wrong.

Harry is too good for me.

He’s an international pop star, in the biggest band in the world. I’m a nobody from Texas who dated him before he got famous and had his daughter. The daughter that he didn’t know or care about.

“Come on. Stay strong for Daisy.” He whispered.

Calum is one of my best friends, and I met him after I gave birth to my daughter Daisy. After Harry left me I was a mess. I was already pregnant with his baby, but I couldn’t tell him. I drank a lot, and I’m extremely lucky Daisy doesn’t have any major birth defects. I just wish she had a real father. Calum moved in with me right after she was born, and has helped me since. Were not together, in fact he’s in a serious relationship with his girlfriend Scarlett, but were best friends.

“How can I forget him if he’s coming back?” I sobbed.

“Because I will help you. You’re not giving up Hadley. Not on my watch.” He reassured.

“Where’s Daisy?” I asked, suddenly noticing that it was very quiet.

She must be getting in trouble if she’s quiet.

“Daisy?” I shouted, going in her bedroom.

She smiled at me, as she was controlling the remote.

“Daisy! You scared me!” I wrapped my arms around her.

“Mommy red.” She frowned, pointing at my eyes.

“That’s cause mommy cried.” I said picking her up.

“Why?” She asked sweetly.

“Mommy’s silly.” I sighed, picking her up.

“Mommy also has to go to work, so I need to get you dressed.”

I work at a day car for toddlers and babies. It pays the rent, and I don’t have to leave Daisy at home of with a babysitter.

I dressed Daisy and grabbed my keys.

“Will you be okay?” Calum asked and I nodded.

“Alright, I’m going to Scar’s, be home soon.” He added.

“Ask her if she wants to come over for dinner!” I shouted before he left.

I grabbed the diaper bag before leaving too, making a quick stop at Dairy Queen.

There was a group of people gathered in front of it and I had to move through to get to the opening.

“Excuse me” I yelled, trying to get through.

What is up with this camera crew?

“Hadley?” A familiar voice yelled after me.

I looked over to see Louis.

No, no, no. I looked around to see if anyone else was here. No one was except for Liam.

Thank God, no Harry.

“Hey Hads!” Liam yelled.

I ignored them and pushed my way through the door.

“What’s going on out there?” The owner asked me.

“Part of One direction are out there.” I stated, clinging tight to Daisy.

“Well there blocking the entrance.” He complained.

The door ringed and Louis and Liam came in.

“Can you lock this door?” Louis shouted, trying to keep it closed.

“I’m really not supposed to lock it during-“ He started.

“Please!” Liam shouted, and he came over to lock it.

Great.

Now I’m trapped with them.

“Hadley!” Liam shouts hugging me.

“Careful” I warn, pulling Daisy closer.

“Whose this cutie?” Liam holds out his arms and Daisy hides her face in my shoulder.

“This is Daisy.” I stated.

“Is she yours?” Liam asked.

“Yup, all mine.” I stated, walking up to order.

I got an ice-cream and fries for Daisy and sat back down.

“How are you? Seeing anyone?” Louis asked sitting across from me.

“Nope.” I sigh.

“What about Daisy’s dad? Who’s he?” Liam questioned.

“I….” I stuttered.

There’s no way I’m going to tell them Harry’s the dad.

“Don’t know him…anymore.” I added.
