Chapter 46

I placed Darcy in her car seat as Robin put the last of her suitcases into the back of my car. We had been home for two days and instead of getting sleep like I wanted to we were moving all of mine and Darcy's things to Harry's house. I buckled her into the seat carefully as she played with the doll Harry had gotten her for her birthday. I smiled at her concentrated face then kissed her cheek. She grinned even though she didn't look at me, something her father always did.
"Are you ready, E?" Gemma asked getting into my front seat while her fiancee got into the back with Darcy. I nodded and pulled out of the car. I shut Darcy's door carefully then got into the front seat. I started the care then pulled away from the house. I looked back at it from the rear-view mirror. I sighed. I liked my independence, moving in with Harry meant I was going to loose a little of it. It wasn't my house so I couldn't have as much control over what went on. It also meant that I wasn't really going to be a single mother anymore, which was nice. I always dreamed of eventually raising Darcy with Harry. And since he had brought it up, I wanted more kids. I wanted Harry and I to have the family that we talked about all those years ago on the balcony in Paris. "E, are you alright?" Gemma inquired quietly.
I nodded, "Yeah, I was just thinking about Harry is all. He really wanted to be here to help. He called me this morning to complain that he couldn't." Gemma and her fiancee, Nick, laughed.
"Do you still love him? The way he loves you?" Gemma inquired even though it was a little awkward.
"I will always love Harry. He's my once in a lifetime and a wonderful father." I replied honestly.
"Then why didn't you stay together?" Gemma inquired.
I sighed, "I didn't get the chance to tell him that I filed for divorce before he accidentally met Charles. He and Charles got into a huge fight at an event. I got escorted out with my husband and Harry thought I went willingly. I went to his hotel room the next day to tell him I got kicked out with my husband and that I wanted to stay with him but he broke it off before I could say that I gave Charles the papers. HE beats himself up for not letting me say it before he, well he says acted like a moron, and told me to leave. We both wish it would've been different but this is how it is."
"Harry said you're trying to get back together?" Nick sounded confused.
I shrugged, "We'll see where it goes. He needs to focus on being a dad. Even if we can't be together I want him to be there for his child. Being together would just be a bonus. Being parents is way more important than being lovers."
"You're a wonderful mother." Gemma smiled, touching my arm gently. I blushed and thanked her quietly.


"Darcy, don't run in the house!" I called out after her.
"Daddy lets me run in the house." Darcy replied with attitude.
I glared at her, "Daddy isn't home and I told you to stop it. Don't argue with me." Darcy moved back and dropped her eyes as she nodded. "Go put your toys in the bin in your room." I instructed her. "Ask Grammy or Pops or Auntie to help you if you need it." I added.
Darcy looked at Gemma, "Will you help me?" Gemma nodded and took her hand. They walked away slowly. I sighed heavily and turned back to setting up the little chair that Harry had bought just for her for the living room.
Anne rested her hand on my back, "That's always going to happen, "the but Daddy lets me". Harry and Gemma used to do it all of the time. It's just how it works."
I nodded, "Even before she knew he was her father I got the "but Harry lets me". I'm going to punch him when he gets home for letting her act like a wild animal." Anne and Robin laughed loudly. "I understand that Daddy is supposed to be Mr Fun but I just...I hate being the bad guy all of a sudden."
Anne shrugged, "It's our job as mother's. It's probably written somewhere."
"I mean, if she's really being naughty, Harry steps in and he sets her straight immediately and it scares the shit out of her." I giggled. "He is a great dad."
"He wants to be a great man too. A great husband." Anne winked at me.
I nodded sadly, "I know. I just...I don't want to jump into being the way we were before we broke up because what if not taking our time makes it so we don't stay together? I don't want...I want us to be together and stay that way. I don't want to put Darcy through that. Plus he says he wants more kids. I don't think I could be a single mother to more than one. Darcy already makes me want to rip my hair out some days."
"So you want to be with him?" Robin inquired.
I smiled, "Of course I do. He's Harry. He's my child's father. I want him to be a dad first because that's the most important title he has." Anne and Robin looked at me like they were proud. "What?" I asked feeling a bit awkward.
"It's a shame you didn't meet Harry before you met that vile man you were married to." Anne stated quietly as she placed some of my books on Harry's shelf.
I laughed, "You're tellin' me. I've thought that since the day I met Harry. But I would've never met Harry had I not had Charles money. He sent me to Ireland so I could work on my photography. Kind of twisted isn't it?" Anne nodded even though she was cringing. "Thank you for not hating me." I murmured.
"Honey, why would I ever hate you?" Anne inquired sadly.
I shrugged, "Because I saw your son as part of an affair. I broke his heart. I didn't tell him about his daughter right away."
"But he loves you so much. Yes, these circumstances are not desirable but he loves you. So I love you. I mean, you do take care of him even though you're not together. And you did have his child, so I know you love him." Anne explained gently, taking my hand in hers. "You may not feel it. But you are as much a part of this family as your daughter and Harry. Even if you're not with my son." I thanked her as she wrapped me in a tight hug.
