Chapter 24

It's been a hectic time in the Leroy/Irwin household. Between Hospital check ups for Ayla and Ash's band meetings and this morning is no different. Running around trying to get Ayla dressed as well as making sure Ash has everything as he leaves for Perth for the tour. The tour doesn't start for another couple days but they are going today to then be able to rehearse with the full stage and everything.

I was in Ayla's room with her getting her dressed, i decided to put her in a cute "my daddies a rockstar" onesie and tied a bandana around her little head just for shits and giggles really along with a ruffle tutu skirt. I had her dressed and ready and set her on our bed in a barrier of pillows while i get dressed. She wiggles a lot now so we have to put barriers around her so she doesn't fall off the bed in case we aren't looking for a second and shes on the floor. Ash had to run out to their practice space because he left something there that he needs, i don't know what but he was panicking trying to find and and decided it must be there.
i just pulled leggins on and a baggy t-shirt. Just as i was putting my converse on i heard the front door open and Ash shout that we really need to go.
"arent you forgetting something" i shouted back while looking at his suitcase still in the room
"What" he replied
"oh i dont know, maybe your suitcase"
"oh shit yeah" i heard him chuckle.
he came running into the room
"we are already running late babe" he said walking to his suitcase, zipping it up and picking it up
"we are ready, just waiting for you"
he looked up at Ayla on the bed and started laughing
"what is she wearing"
"she just wanted to support her daddy that's all"
"come on lets go" he chuckled out the door
I picked up Ayla and her nappy bag, which i probably wouldn't need because i'm just going to the airport and back but it's good to have just in case.
Ash was already waiting in the passenger seat when i got to the car, i quickly strapped Ayla in and got in the drivers seat
"to the airport James" Ash said
i laughed and started the journey.
"so are you excited for tour" i asked
"yeah, it feels like forever since we've played a show"
"i'm pretty sure this has been the longest you've gone since i've known you"
"yeah i think so, but it's been nice to just be home"
"it's been nice having you home"
"we've got a long year ahead before we get that again"
"i know, but we'll work through it"
"i just hope she doesnt forget who i am"
"Oh babe, she wont, she adores you and you know that"
"i know but like i'm going to miss so much when i'm gone, like shes 3 months now, the next time i see her she will be nearly 5 months old, then i'm gone again and by the time the tour is over she will be 1"
"you'll have breaks and stuff, we will facetime all the time we will make it work babe i promise. to be fair i'm scared of how i'm going to handle it went she goes in her moods where all she wants is you and she cant have you"
"i know i was thinking about that this morning, i just didnt want to say anything"
"we both have struggles we are going to have to go through while you're away but you wont be gone forever"

we pulled up to the airport and i told Ash to get Ayla and i would take his suitcase in. We walked in and found the check out, we waited in line for him to check in, i looked around and saw the rest of the boys a bit away with a bunch of fans, just chatting and taking pictures. Ash got check in and we headed over to the boys
"hi guys" i said as i went up to them and hugged each boy, i said hi to the fans too as Ash came up.
"i'll take her" i said taking Ayla off Ash as he posed for pictures
"I want to have an Ay cuddle" Luke said
"shes all yours Lukey" i said passing her over
"Why is she dressed like that' Calum asked
"i don't know, i felt like it. Doesn't she look so much like Ash with the bandana and her little blonde curls"
"Hey um can i get a quick picture of you guys and Ay" Calum and Michael stood next to Luke and i snapped a quick picture
@OliviaJess Princess and her uncles. Shes gonna miss her cuddles while they're on tour
"Okay guys we need to go through" Their manager came over and said
"One more quickly" Ash said as a girl was freaking out that shes missed her chance
he quickly took the picture and then came over to us. He took Ayla back and my hand before we walked nearer security.
We stopped just before the ine started to say goodbye. I hugged each boy before Ash's turn, Michael took Ayla before i attacked ash with a hug
"i'm going to miss you so much" i said
"i'm going to miss you too babe, one month and then we have Christmas and get to celebrate her first Christmas and your birthday, cant forget your birthday"
"one month"
i looked up at him and he met my lis with his, it was short but sweet. I took Ayla back before we had a family hugg and he kissed Ayla on the cheek
"you be good for mummy princess" he said
"i love you both so much"
"We love you too"
one last kiss and they had to go through. Ayla and I watched as they went through security and just before they went round a corner he looked back and i picked up Ayla's hand and waved and blew him a kiss.
we walked back to the car and i sat in the drivers seat for a second
@OliviaJess saying goodbye never gets easier, you would think i would be use to it by now.
@Ashton5sos i miss my girls already
a picture of us hugging with Ayla that a fan must have took was added
@Ashton5sos @OliviaJess we miss you already too
i drove back home and put Ayla down for a nap and took a nap myself. It's going to hard now, i've always had Ash here, now i have to do it by myself and i'm scared.
