"Ok babies, are you all packed?" Oliver asked Juno and Fleur. Juno looked up at his dad with a frown on his face. "Daddy....Why did mommy do this too us?" Juno asked, a tear falling down his small cheek. Oliver frowned and kneeled down to his son. "I don't know baby, I don't even know myself love...but I'm always, and I mean always here for you guys ok? I love you." Oliver said, rubbing Juno's cheek softly, wiping away the tear that feel from his eye. Juno hugged his dad as tight as he could. Oliver almost started to cry again but stayed strong and hugged his son even tighter, "JuJu, is your sister packed too?- can you go check for me please?" Oliver asked his son, rubbing the back of his head. Juno nodded and smiled at Oliver, making Oliver's heart melt right where is was. Oliver smiled as he saw Juno's little run to go find Fleur.

Oliver got off his knees and stood up, looking around his once happy family home......well what seemed to be a happy home. The boxes of his clothes and Juno and Fleur's toys on the ground in a pile was a sight Oliver thought he would never see. Even if Oliver wasn't truly happy, he didn't ever see himself leaving Izzy, and ironically....Izzy left him when he was the one that always thought about it. Oliver had to shake the depressing thoughts out of his head before his mine spiraled into darkness again. It's been 1 year since his last relapse and he wanted to keep that streak.

Suddenly, Oliver get interrupted by his son running with his sister in hand, smiling wide. "Daddy, she wasn't done packing so I helped her-" Juno was interrupted. "He did not daddy!" Fleur said pointing at Juno. "YES I DID MORNING BREATH-" Juno yelled. "DOG WATER!" Fleur said, fighting back. Oliver chuckled and pulled the kids away from eachother. "Juno...Fleur...stop, we have to get ready to leave for Los Angeles ok?" Oliver said, chuckling at his two beautiful kids. "Omg! We get to see grandma!" Fleur said, jumping up and down with her suitcase in hand. Oliver watched as his kids jumped in excitement, making him smile ear to ear.

This also made Oliver look around the house, noticing how dull and dead it was. He was finally doing it,....Oliver was finally leaving the house.....he was finally leaving Izzy. Oliver had alot of things on his mind too. The kids.....money.....the house......and definitely...Regie. Oliver had alot on his mind but Regie was one of biggest thoughts in. He couldn't believe that he would be seeing Regie again, after 5 years of not even speaking to him, and now he's going to be in his presence. Oliver couldnt wrap it around his mind.

Oliver stood in silence for a moment, or he went into silence as his mind went back to all the times he was with Regie...good or bad, making him smile and want to cry at the same time. "~Daddy?-" Fleur called out, tugging at her dad's shirt, trying to get his attention in his dased state. "-DADDY!" Fleur said, finally knocking Oliver out his daydream state. Oliver shook from the suprise but soon looked down to see what Fleur wanted. "Were done packing Daddy, can we go asleep now?"  Fleur asked, giving Oliver puppy eyes.

Oliver smiled and nodded. "Yeah go get some sleep, we're leaving early in the morning, way earlier then any of you guys have had to wake up ok? So I need you guys to really get some sleep." Oliver assured to the kids. Fleur and Juno hummed in response and shut their doors. Oliver sighed, walking to his empty couch and sulking down into it, trying to let the gravity of his situations settle in.

The flight he booked earlier, the flight that was gonna change his life drastically, was only 12 hours away and he was already packed and ready to go. Oliver took one more deep sigh before he layed down on their couch...him and Izzy's couch, falling asleep, setting his alarm to 4:00 am.

*Beep* *Beep* *Beep*

Oliver was startled by the sudden sound of his phone at first but he quickly sat up and turned it off. Oliver sat in silence for a few seconds, really thinking about what he needed to do. "Oh- the kids-" Oliver whispered, quietly getting up from the couch and walking to the kids empty, dull room. "Hey, Fleur- Juno, get up babies, we have to get going to the airport." Oliver said, peeking in the room. Juno rolled over on his side and Fleur made her angry face. Oliver couldnt help but giggle at the two. "Come on guys, I promise I'll get you donuts!" Oliver exclaimed, flicking the light on, making the kids groan.

"Daddy- you better be telling the truth, you just woke us up for zero reason!" Fleur exclaimed, stomping her feet down onto the ground, getting out of her bed. Juno nodded, agreeing with her. Oliver smiled and nodded. "Yes, Daddy promises to get both Ms.Fleur and Sir Juno both glazed donuts from Dunkin Donuts as soon as we get to the airport-" Oliver said, putting his hand across his heart. Both Juno and Fleur look at eachother, nodding. "Alright, let's go!" Juno said, yawning in the process. Oliver smiled and closed the door, letting the kids get their shoes on and gather the rest of their stuff.

Oliver sighed, walking to the couch and plopping down onto it, grabbing his phone. Oliver knew what he was about to do, he knew that it would drive him crazy. Hes was gonna text Regie.

Suddenly, as Oliver was about to sit his phone down, a ding went off.

Oliver quickly flipped his phone over and turned it on, seeing what the notification was, and it was none other then the man himself, Regie Macalino.
