Andy Robertson

NAME: Riley
"I want a divorce"
Your POV:

That's what I said after an argument with My ex husband, Josh.

That's what I said right now to my husband of 2 years, Andy Robertson.

I wish I could say I wasn't to blame but I am. I asked Josh for a divorce because I simply didn't love him because I loved Andy. And this time I did the same 5o Andy but it wasn't because I was in love with another man, no. I'm just cursed in love. Me and Andy had a fight over babies. I told him I never want babies, while Andy wants three babies. We had a fight and then I said that. My typical saying. "I want a divorce" and I didn't even mean it.

So here I am, newly divorced and just discovered I'm pregnant with twins. That's my karma. I messed up and Andy doesn't know. How do I tell him? How do I even try to explain what happened. I'm in love with Andy but I ruined my own marriage again.

I'm walking around the park when I spot Josh. "Riley?" Asked Josh. I stop and look at him. "Josh" I said, familiar warmth spreads true my chest. "Hi, I heard about you and Andy" said Josh. "Yeah, it was my fault yet again. Fought over having babies and well, I said those words." I said, looking down. "You look.... Your glowing" said Josh. I nod. "Pregnant with twins" I said, sighing. "Have you told him?" Asked Josh. "Nope. How do I tell him that? After saying I never wanted kids?" I said, looking into his warm eyes.

"Well, I can help you." Said Josh, taking my hand. I blush and look down. "Ok" I said, smiling. I forgot how sweet he was. I love Andy but Josh is my first love.

Fast forward 3 years, I have three year old twins, Max and Marley. They have my last name. Me and Josh got married when M and M were 2. I love Josh and I guess we were meant to be.

We are at the beach when I spot Andy. He looks at me and looks at the twins. Shit. "Riley?" Said Andy. "Andy" I said. "Are they my kids?" Asked Andy. I sigh. "Yup. I'm sorry but I couldn't tell you after that fight" I said, playing with my wedding ring. "Oh. I see your married" said Andy, looking at my hand. "Yeah, my husband Josh is at the car" I said. "Your ex" said Andy. "Yeah. We reconnected" I said. "Mommy, where's daddy?" Asked Max. "Car." I said. "They don't know me do they?" Asked Andy. "Andy...." I said. "Don't. You knew how much I wanted kids. You never told me!" Said Andy. He turns and walks away.

I kneel down to Max and Marley's height. "Bubs, you know how Josh isn't your biological dad. The man who was talking to me is your real dad. I never told him about you because I was stupid." I said, knowing I have to tell them. They shrug. "Daddy is Josh" said Max. I sigh and stand up. Fuck my life.

I told Josh and he was shocked. "Riley, I did tell you to tell him" said Josh. I nod. "I know" I said.

When Marley and Max turn 15, me and Josh are still married but we're going through the motions. Me, Max and Marley are in London when I spot Andy. Andy spots me and I can tell his hurt. He walks over. "Riley" said Andy. "Andy.... How are you?" I ask. "Wonderful, knowing I have kids that don't know me but what can I do" said Andy. "Andy.... Please" I said. "NO! You divorce me cause you didn't want kids. You then do now tell me you were pregnant with twins and let another man raise them! I haven't moved on, I don't have kids with anyone but you! Cheers Riley. Hope your happy with your perfect life." Said Andy, turning around and walking away.

"Mom what is he talking about?" Asked Marley. "Let's sit" I said. We sit and I breathe in and out. "I was married to Josh and we divorced cause of me and then I married Andy. Two years we were happy until we fought over babies. I didn't want them and in the end I divorced him over it. Then I discovered I was pregnant with you. I met Josh again, we dated and got married. You met Andy when you were three and I told you but didn't care. I made mistakes" I said.

"Mistakes? You.... Let us call another man dad? You let us think Josh was our dad. While our real dad has been suffering?" Said Max, standing up. Marley joins him. "You ruined his life" said Marley, turning around, they walk away.

Andy's POV:

I hear knocking on my door. I walk towards it and open it. "Max, Marley" I said. "Hi. Your our dad." Said Max. I nod. I let them in. "You must be hungry and thirsty" I said. "Yeah." Said Marley. I make stem sandwiches and tea. "Dad go for full custody" said Max. "Max, your mum loves you" I said. "I know but we don't want her now. We had her for 15 years and you didn't have us for that long. You need us." Said Max, looking at me. I look down. "Ok" I said.

Riley's POV:

I wake up three days later to a knocking on the door. I go open it with Josh, Max and Marley behind me. Andy is there. Max and Marley run to him. "Here" said Andy. I open it. "You want full custody" I said. "It was our idea. You had us for 15 years. You let him lose time. We want him." Said Marley. "Listen here young lady, your mom did what she did for you two" said Josh. "Oh piss off Josh. Your not our dad. Our dad is Andy. Your selfish." Said Max, standing beside Andy. I sigh.

"Ok. Fine. I guess it's fair for you to know your kids. I knew I was wrong and I'm sorry" I said. "Thanks, Riley" said Andy. I look down. Andy leaves with Marley and Max. I go sit down. "You let them call me Josh" said Josh. I shrug. "I guess they need him. Josh, you know they love you but they have their dad. I just have to accept you. You may as well join" I said. "You little bitch! Letting him back into our lives! You still love him! Your pathetic!" Yelled Josh. I gasp and look at him.

"Fuck off Josh. I want a divorce. Maybe I was wrong to go back to you all those years ago!" I yell back. "Fine. Pack. Get the fuck out" said Josh. I go pack my and the kids stuff. I put them in the car and drive to the lawyers. I get the papers and sign them. I drop them off and he signs them. He hands them back and I go give them to the lawyer. I sigh and go to Andy's.

I park and step out. I go to the door. I knock on the door. Andy opens the door. "What's up?" Asked Andy. "Oh. Me and Josh are getting divorced. He was annoyed they called him Josh and he got annoyed" I said. Andy sighs and looks at me. "I'm sorry, I really am" I said. "Come in. You can stay with me." Said Andy. I nod and step in. Max and Marley look at me.

"Mum?" Asked Max. "Me and Josh are getting a divorce" I said. "Oh" said Max. I sigh and pull my hair up. I look at Andy and he looks happy. I yawn. Max and Marley go out the back. "How are you?" Asked Andy. "Fine. His a dick" I said. I look at Andy. "I wish I never divorced you, you know" I said. "Oh... why now?" Asked Andy. "I fucking made a mistake and I wasn't expecting to marry Him again. I never expected it, you know. It just happened and I wish I never married him. I was just being I don't know..... shit. I'm sorry" I said, looking down. Andy takes my hands. "Calm down. Yeah, you broke me but you had to think of Max and Marley. You went through with Josh again cause his your first love, your first everything. I was your second love and I know you loved me and we just.... Failed our first obstacle." Said Andy. I laugh.

"I forgot how you know how to make me feel happy" I said, smiling. Andy smiles and pulls me into a hug.

And yes, we got married a year later. We had one kid, Mariana Jo Robertson. Max and Marley changed their last name, Andy is on their birth certificate and we're all happy. We finally got our happy ever ending.

And I hope you enjoyed this imagine. I didn't know what this would be like if they would end up together again or she stays with Josh. I realised that sometimes a first love isn't always the love you stay with for some people. Some grow and evolve and they don't stay the same as they were and that another love could be endgame. I am a sucker for first love is the one but maybe it's not. Why would it always be your first love to be your happy ever after? Sometimes it takes a while. And this just came from a person who has been single for her whole life 😂 aim high people.

I am 23 tomorrow! It's my birthday tomorrow woohoo! Also I'm soon to be 23 and I don't know how to feel about it.

Anyway enjoy this imagine
