Luke's POV

I had already signed the custody papers and all that jazz. I was about to walk into that room again.

I opened the door and was immediately hugged by Aria. I chuckled and picked her up and carry her on my hip. "You came back Daddy!" She said happily. "Yeah, and you litte missy, are coming with me." I told her. She gasped and clapped then hugged me around my neck. "Is Mummy gonna come to?" She asked smiling wide.

Shit. She hasnt fully understood whats going on I sighed and shook my head. She frowned and looked confused. "Where's Mummy?" She asked me. "M-mummy is .. She's in a better place, you're gonna stay with Daddy." I told her. Just after that she instantly smiled again and hugged me.

"Bye Aria!" Jennifer waved as I was holding Aria in my arms and carry her bunny backpack as we walked to my car. Once we got to my car, I opened the passenger seat right next to the driver seat and buckled Aria in because I didnt have a baby car seat just yet. Just as I closed the door, I realized that I need baby food and stuffs. "Bloody hell." I sighed and checked my wallet. Of course I have tons of credit cards, Im a celebrity. Psh. I got my cigarettes out and lit one and took a big drag.

"Damn it." I forgot to tell Hannah about Aria. I called Hannah and she answered on the 4th ring. "Hey babe!" She said happily. "Love, uhh. Are you at my apartment or yours?" I asked her. "Well I was headed over to yours so we could, yeah you know." She told me. I smirked but then remember I cant right now, I have a daughter. "Okay, uh, be there. I need to tell you something." I said quickly then hung up.

I threw my cigarette on the ground and squished it with my boots then got in the car and started the engine. "Daddy I was scared." Aria said sounding like she was crying. I buckled up and turned around quickly to see her with tears and holding an ugly looking doll. I looked at her and wipes her tears away. "Aw baby, Daddy's sorry. I didnt know you would get scared. I didnt leave you for too long though." She sniffled and said "Daddy I want to sleep." I kissed her forehead and starts to drive away.

Once we finally got to my place, I took the car key out and turned around to see Aria fast asleep. I smiled lightly then got out and went to the passenger door then unbuckled her as quiet
as possible. I grabbed her backpack and a big ass suitcase. I carry her and put her on my shoulder. She stirred in her sleep but snuggled more into my shoulder. I smiled and walked to my door.
I unlocked and walked in and over to my bedroom. I laid her down on my bed as she was still asleep. I kissed her forehead then left the room and quietly closing the door behing me.

Once it was closed, I took a big deep breath.

Im a Daddy.
A father.
Aria's parent.

That was all that kept running through my head, then I felt someone kissing my neck. It was Hannah. I didnt notice her. "Cmon baby lets go in." She mumbled against my neck as she's trying to turn the door knob but I quickly grabbed her hand and stopped her. "Oh you wanna do it out here?" She smirked. "Hannah stop." I said sternly. She pulled away looking confused. "Whats wrong Luke?" She asked. I sighed and ran my head through my hair. She stepped back. "You're seeing someone else arent you!" She asked sounding hurt.

I quickly looked at her and shook my head. "No no no. Its just. Uh, look." I said and opened my bedroom door slowly to reveal Aria laying on my bed, cuddled under my comforter. "Who the hell is she!" She asked me. "M-my daughter?" I said nervously. "What the fuck Luke?!" She yelled. I tried shh-ing her but she kept yelling at me.

Aria woke up and started crying. I ran over to her and picked her up and tried to comfort her. "Hannah. Shut the fuck up!" I yelled at her. She finally shut her mouth up and glared at me. "Daddy that was scawy." Aria whispered to me. I kissed her forehead and carry Aria into the living room. I sat down on my couch and let Aria snuggle into my chest.

"Luke! You cannot have a kid. She could ruin your career!" Hannah yelled at me. "Hannah she has no one! Shut up! I used to date her Mum, she D I E D!" I said spelling out 'died' so that Aria wouldnt feel confused. "Like I give a fuck? I wont date someone who is taking care of their ex kid!" She yelled. "She's MY KID." I yelled back at her. I felt Aria bury her face deeper into my chest. "Daddy stowp" Aria whispered. I smoothed out her hair and rubbed circles on her back.

"Hannah, if you're not going to date someone that takes care of their kid, like I AM DOING. then leave!" I told her. She stood there, shocked. She walked out the door slamming it behind her. I flinched and kissed Aria's cheek. "Daddy?" Aria looked at me. "What baby?" I said. "Who was that?" She asked. "Thats a bit- uh no not that one. Witch, she's a witch. Bad witch." I felt her breathing slow down. She fell asleep. I carried her to my bedroom again and laid her down. I fell asleep next to her.

Luke's POV

I was driving home from the studio when I got a call from restricted. "Hello?" I asked. "Oh! Hello, my name's Jennifer, this is the Sydney hospital, I was told to reach for Luke Hemmings?" A female said. "That'd be me, can I ask why you called me?" I asked curiously. "Yes, well. We have your daughter." She said. I laughed slightly. "Psh? I dont have a kid." I said while laughing again.

"Mr Hemmings, this isnt a laughing matter. Your daughter Aria, her mother, Aleisha, passed away a couple hours ago and she doesnt have anyone to take Aria in, except you." She said sadly. I sighed and pulled over to the side of the road. "What is Aleisha's full name?" I asked. "Aleisha MacDonald." She said quietly again.

Yep, that was my ex girlfriend Aleisha. "Oh God, hmm. How old is she?" I asked her. She laughed slightly. "Aria, she's 3." She told me. 3 fucking years old. "Mr, since Aleisha has no family, Aria is going to have to go to a foster home and I dont think sending a 3 year old to a foster home is a brilliant idea, she just lost her Mom, and she doesnt even know her Dad. She said sadly.

A couple minutes later I was at the hospital. I walked over to the kid's section and walked up to the counter. "Uh, I talked to Jennifer? On the phone about my daughter, Aria?" I said awkwardly. What? Im new at this.

"Yes, that was me, nice to meet you Mr Hemmings." She said and stretched her arm out. I shook it then put my hands in my leather jacket pockets. "So, uh? Whats the deal?" I asked her, confused.

She sighed and got some paperwork. "Aleisha died 3 hours ago from a car crash. She had pieces of glass from her car window in her chest and instantly died, but when the ambulance showed up there was a little girl that have a few scratches on her face crying and hugging Aleisha calling her Mummy."

I frowned and loooked down. Aria was there when Aleisha died? God. "Oh shit." I whispered. She nodded hr head then put the paperwork down. "C-can I see her?" I asked. She smiled and nodded. "Follow me." She said and started walking to a door that said 'Doctor Avery' on it.

She opened the door to show a woman with white long wavy hair and a lab coat playing with a little with a pretty brown hair. "Dr Avery? Aria's father is here." Jennifer said to the doctor. She nodded and tapped the little girl's shoulder and pointed towards me.

The little girl turned around to show her beautiful, big brown eyes. I know she got that from Aleisha, because I have blue eyes. "Daddy!" She squealed and jumped up and ran over to me and hugged my legs. "Mummy was wight! You do have big wegs!" She said in a baby voice. I chuckled and picked her up then carry her on my hip.

"You have bwueeee eyes!" She said happily. I nodded and booped her nose. "But yours are brown" I told her. She smiled and looked over at Jennifer. "Is daddy gonna stay?" She asked her. "Well, thats up to your Daddy." Jennifer told her.

Then, Aria looked over at me with hopeful eyes. "Im gonna have to think about it sweetie." I told her. "Whenever Mummy says that, it always means no." She said frowning and looking down. I picked her chin up and made her look me in the eyes. "I didnt say no, but I will think about it. Okay baby?" I said. She looked down again and nodded. I kissed her forehead and put her down. "No Daddy!" Aria said looking scared.

"I'll be right back baby. Okay?" She nodded her head. "Ok, lets have a talk." Jennifer said and left the room with me following her.
