NAME: Sharlene

Step dad duties 

Sharlene POV:

I have a 6 year old son from my ex boyfriend, Dominic. Dylan Max Cooper is my life and when Dominic dumped me cause he fell out of love and wasn't ready to be a full time dad. 2 years after Dylan was born I met Ben Chilwell. Dylan and Dominic get on, Dylan looks up to Dominic but Dominic is very messy, sometimes he doesn't turn up, sometimes he does. 

Today his going to meet his dad again. Ben walks over and cuddles me. "How's our girl doing?" asked Ben, rubbing my 5 month stomach. "She's kicking up a storm and craving cupcakes" I said, looking up at him. "Mmmm then on the way home from dropping Dylan home, we should get cupcakes" said Ben. I smile. "Oh yes" I said, kissing him again. Dylan walks inside. "Are we going yet?" asked Dylan. I nod and we go to the car.

We drive to Dominic's house. We step out and go to the door. We knock and Dominic opens the door. "Oh fuck" said Dominic. "Daddy! You said a bad word" said Dylan. "I....oh um I forgot today is my day" said Dominic. I roll my eyes. "Well it is" I said. "Come on in bud" said Dominic. Dylan runs inside and goes to the sitting room. "So, your bigger" said Dominic. I roll my eyes. "Yeah, I am pregnant" I said. "Right" said Dominic. We leave and go get cupcakes. 

When we get home, we sit on the sofa, turn a movie on and eat our cupcakes. I smile at Ben. "I can't wait till we have our daughter" I said, smiling. "Same here, a mini you" said Ben. I smile. "And after our girl, we cn try for a boy" I said. Ben laughs. "Oh yeah, how many kids do you want?" asked Ben. "Well, four." I said. "Two more after this one" said Ben. I smile and kiss him.

The weekend goes by slowly but on Sunday, Dylan arrives home. He hugs me and walks to his room. Ben frowns. "He usually says hi" saiad Ben. "I know, I'll go see what's wrong?" I ask. "No, let me" said Ben. 

I follow him. "Hey Dylan, why did you ignore me?" asked Ben. "Your not my dad or anything, just my mum's husband. Your nothing to me" said Dylan. "Dylan, I love you like your my own" said Ben. "No. I have a dad, I don't need you" said Dylan. "Dylan Max Cooper! Apologise right now to Ben! He loves you and your being really rude to him" I said, stepping inside. "No momma! He stole you from daddy! Daddy loves you" said Dylan. I sit on his bed. "Dylan, I don't love your daddy. I love Ben. Your daddy left me years ago. I do not want him. Now, either you say sorry or your grounded" I said. "No" said Dylan. "Fine your grounded." I said. Me and Ben go to our room. Ben begins to cry. "He hates me" said Bed, crying. I wrap my arms around him.

"No, he doesn't. I don't know what happened but I have a feeling Dominic is behind it." I said. Ben nods and we have dinner. Dylan just eats and goes to his room. I sigh. We lay on our bed and I kiss Ben. "Benny, he loves you" I said. He nods. 

This keeps happening, everytime he comes home from his dads, his more hostile towards Ben. When we had Averie Rue Chilwell, it got worse. Until finally, Ben snapped. "Momma, can me, you and daddy go to the cinema?" asked Dylan. "No, sweetie. Me and Ben can bring you" I said. "I don't want him" said Dylan. I hear Ben sigh. He stands up. "I need a couple of days to myself, Lenny" said Ben. I stand up. "OK, baby. I'll have my parents mind him tomorrow and we can go out with Averie." I said. Ben nods and grabs some clothes. I sit back and watch Dylan play. What do I do?

As the day goes by, Dylan's happy. "I'm glad Ben's gone, momma." said Dylan. "That's it! I have had enough of your behaviour towards Ben! You do not disrespect my husband like, do you hear me? His left because of you! His daughter needs him and you are acting like a spoilt brat right now! Your dad broke up with me cause he didn't want to be with me because he was not ready to be a full time dad! Dinner will be ready in an hour, do your homework quietly. His coming home tomorrow and you will treat him with respect or I will be forced to do something I never want to do." I said, standing up. I pick Averie up and go to the kitchen.

When Ben arrives home, Dylan doesn't talk to Ben. Me and Ben sit outside. "Babe, maybe it's better off if I leave for a while longer" said Ben. I shake my head. "No, Dylan is not pushing you out of our house, Benny. He has to learn your here for good. He will learn. Trust me, Dominic will mess up and I want you to not be there for him. He will learn" I said, kissing him. Ben nods and we go to bed. 

Eventually Dominic does mess up and it's in the worst way possible. His moving to the US and told Dylan he has no time for him. Dylan's upset but I console him. Ben wants too but I told him, if Dylan hasn't learned then we have to show him. 

"Babe, me and Averie are having a girls day, you'll be OK with Dylan?" I ask. He nods. "I'll be fine" said Ben. I kiss him and leave. 

Ben's POV

I cook Dylan's favourite breakfast and hand it to him quietly. Mason's coming over with Declan. Once they arrive, Dylan hugs them and goes to play. "So, he hasn't talked to you" said Declan. "No. I give up. Lenny has given up as well. He hasn't learned and eventually he will regret but until then, his father figure is me but he doesn't accept me" I said, sighing. "Well, his lucky to have you" said Mason. I nod and Dylan walks in. He sits down and begins to colour. 

"Hey Ben? Have you and Lenny decided to start trying for another baby?" asked Declan. "We have, she's hoping for a boy, as am I. I mean, I would call my son Xavier Aidan Chilwell and honestly, we're excited" I said, laughing. I notice Dylan look up. "Oh man, you'll have a son" said Mason, chuckling. "Yeah, a mini me. Once he gets to the age, hope we can get him into the Chelsea academy" I said, smiling. "Wow, big plans" said Declan. "yeah, I better make lunch for us" I said, going to make Dylan's lunch. 

"Here ya go, Dylan" I said. He nods and digs in. I sit down and the lads leave. Eventually Lenny comes home and she smirks. "Guess what? I'm pregnant" said Lenny. I kiss her. "I am so excited" I said. We go outside. "Umm, how was Dylan?" asked Lenny.  "Fine, he coloured in. I'm tired of being ignored" I said. "Baby, he will learn, my bubs" said Lenny. I nod.

When she's 20 weeks, we find out we're having a boy. We tell Dylan and he just nods. I look at Dylan outside lying on the grass. I go over and join him. "Dylan, what's wrong?" I ask. "Nothing!" said Dylan. "Fine, I have tried with you. I have been patient but you constantly push me away! Your dad left to the US and I'm here. I have never left, even when you hate me. I have had enough. I will stop trying to be your friend, you step-dad. I'll just be the man your mum married and Averies, and the baby's dad. I know I will never be enough for you" I said. I stand up and walk away. Lenny calls out. "Don't. I need to be alone" I said. I go out to the front and sit on the steps. I begin to cry.

Lenny's POV

I go outside to Dylan. "What's wrong, buddy?" I ask. "Nothing. I hate Ben" said Dylan. "No you don't. What did your dad say to you when this began?" I ask. "He.... he told me Ben is using us and that he doesn't love us. That he hates me and I should hate him first" said Dylan. "Dyl, your dad is jealous that I found someone that loves me." I said. "Oh" said Dylan. "Yeah, baby boy, you do realise that Ben will not be anything to you now? He meant what he said, can you live with that for the rest of your life? Throwing away the one good dad figure in your life?" I ask. Dylan begins to cry. "No, I love Ben mummy. I love him, I don't want him to forget about me and only love you, Avie and baby brother" said Dylan, crying. I rub his head. "Baby, go say sorry. He just wants you and your love" I said. I follow him to the front. "Ben?" said Dylan. Ben looks up. I just want to protect him.

"I'm sorry Ben. Dad said you were using us and I should hate you first. I'm sorry. I love you and your my dad too and I want you to love me again" said Dylan, crying. Ben pulls him into him. "Dylan, I have always loved you. I love you, my boy" said Ben. They share a hug and I smirk. "Can I call you dad?" asked Dylan. He nods and I smile. 

When our son, Xavier Rex Chilwell is born, Dylan loved him. 

After everything, Dylan never talked about Dominic anymore and when he was old enough, we told him about Dominic and why he left me. Let's just say, he remembered how he treated Ben and was always saying sorry. Dylan adores Ben and now plays for Chlesea at 19. 

I hope you enjoyed the imagine!
