Better Man

"You can't, Bri. The band, the fans-"

"Fuck them. I need to be with my wife, and my kids. I never have put you guys first and I'm going to now," He pulled me into his arms, and kissed my lips gently. Suddenly I was aware that this meant he actually cared about me. He wasn't the cheating bastard of a husband, anymore.

"So when do you think we're going?" I quietly asked, as we got into the rented car. He sat in the drivers seat while I pulled the seat belt around my belly and grinned.

"Not sure, but you're goiing in a few days. I'll keep the boys here, so you can have some time to yourself. Then we'll come home when we get someone to play for me,"

"Okay. Sounds good," We drove to the hotel, Brian clutching my hand the whole time. His smile reminded me of when he found out I was having Scotty, he looked like he'd won the lottery. When we got to the hotel room Scotty was talking to Jimmy who was playing with Aedan. Aedan loved putting blocks into buckets, then taking them out, and doing that for hours. Sure it made looking after him easy, but it was boring to watch.

"Da!" He squealed. Jimmy looked up to us, as Aedan crawled over to Brian.

"Hey, Aedan," Brian cooed, picking him up. "What've you been up to, Scotty?"

"Me and Jimmy watched Ben Ten," Scotty said, sort of excited. "Did you see the baby?"

"Yeah, Jimmy could you give us a minute?" Nodding he went into the other room, where I could hear Zacky and the others.

"What's wrong?" Scotty asked, his eyes flicking between me and Brian. We sat either side of him, and Brian wrapped his arm around him gently.

"Nothing, wrong, Mate. We found out instead of Mum having one baby, there's gonne be three,"

"Three?" I heard Zacky yell. My head swung to the door where you could tell everyone was trying to hear though.

"Zacky, you guys can come in," I sighed, they burst through and landed on top of each other. "Guys you didn't need to do that. We were gonna tell you, we just wanted to tell Scotty first,"

"Sorry," They all grumbled.

"Did you find out the genders?" Johnny asked, hopefully.

"Um two boys, so far. They couldn't tell the third," Brian told them. "We have some other news,"

"What is it?"

"I'm leaving the tour early," The guys all looked shocked, but my brother looked pissed off.

"This is why I didn't want you getting involved with my sister in the first place! Now you're leaving tours so you can be with her!"

"Are you saying your sister isn't worth it?" Brian challenged, standing up, passing me Aedan, then standing eye to eye with my now standing brother.

"Guys stop-"

"Leana, take Scotty, Aedan and Anna in the other room," Brian demanded. She did took the boys, but I refused to leave. I knew they'd have a fight, and I refused to leave them to it. It was pathetic.

"I'm saying that I told you you'd end up like this! And you said you wouldn't! You're forgetting your band for her!"

"Anna is my wife. I'd leave the band for her in a heartbeat,"

"Well that's what you're doing right now,"

"What-"

"You're no longer needed in this band, Brian. You're out,"
