The panic attack hit me by surprise.
I was just trying to show Aria how to colour and than I heard Katy's angry scream.

"So what was it like? Beating up my boyfriend?" She cried as Aria's head snapped up at the noise. Her eyes turned glossy at the yelling as an angered sigh escaped my lips.

"Well it seem he was beating you too, so back off Katy. Your making Aria upset."

"I'm making Aria upset? Your the one who beat a man in front of her."

Now I was mad, clinching tighter around the marker I held. I glanced over to Aria who's bottom lip trembled

"Dada?" She whimpered as I sighed reaching forward. Attempting to bring her into my lap but she wiggled away.

"Dada where momma?"

The words haunted my ears as my flattered from grabbing her. My heart sped up as she stared at me with large eyes. I heard thumping from down stairs, and than Aria's door slammed open to revel Katy.

"Katy, go." I hissed but Katy just rolled her eyes.

"Screw you Dylan, I was happy!" She yelled, causing Aria to shrink farther against me.

Anger boiled in me, "Katy, look at your daughter right now! She's terrified and isn't used to yelling, so all kindly, screw off!"

"I'm going out. And if I don't show up again, don't worry about me."

With that she left, leaving me to stare at the door as Aria started sobbing. I tried to soothe her, but she only held onto the front of my tee-shirt and cried.

Soon I felt it. The fear. The aguish.

The panic.

Breathing softy, I keep telling myself I have to be strong for Aria. I tried to calm down the rolling chaos of my emotions. But yet, my breath still quickened. My vision tunnelled and my my hands became clammy.

I'm fine.

I say the words, over and over again. But before all hope was lost I felt a tiny hand wrap around three of my fingers.

"Dada?" Aria mumbled, her eyes still slightly red from crying as she turns to hug me.

"She's trouble ain't she hon? We were perfectly happy and fine until she showed up." I say the words carefully, quietly. And Aria only sniffles in response.

Skylar's POV

Now as someone who now knows Dylan O'Brien personally. It can be very odd to see him on TV, and for some reason I feel guilty for watching him.

The Maze Runner, was just on. Remembering how Aria was probably only around 1 when that was filmed. My mind wandered back to the cheeky boy who now called me his friend; speaking of the devil my phone lit up with his contact name.

"Hey Dyl! What's up?" I say, my voice higher than usual.

"Hey Skylar, can you like meet me at the park or something? I need to talk to someone." His voice is hoarse and I had a sickening feeling that he had been crying.

"Of course." I finish softly as I hear his phone go dead and the beep to let my know the other person had hung up. Silently I placed the phone on the couch and grabbed my coat.

Dylan's POV

I saw her blonde hair before she even said anything. She had a large coat wrapped around her and a concerned look on her face as she reached me. I was currently pushing Aria on the swing, hearing her giggles made things slightly better.

"Dylan, hi. Is everything alright?" Skylar quickly asks as she sits down on the swing closes to Aria.

I looked over at her and forced a smile on my face, "Yeah, Katy was just stressing me out and I needed out for a bit."

"You do realize that it's your own house... Right?" Her voice is quiet and her eyes wander over to Aria; Who is gleaming and throwing her hands into the air.

"Yeah yeah, I know I should just tell her to leave... But, I just can't you know?"

"Do you still love her?" The question was quick and sharp on Skylar's part, her eyes seemed to darken as she kept her graze locked on the swings.

I was silent, because I didn't know. I hated her, but she was still the mother to my daughter. Quietly I heard Skylar shift slightly at my silence.

"She doesn't deserve you." Now this was even more quiet. She rips her graze for Aria and stands, "Dylan she has destroyed you, and everything else. She left you ripped apart and came back for her own sake, not you or her daughter's!"

Now I'm really quiet. I steady my feet and calm my breathing, "I'm sorry for involving you in my chaos of a life." Is the only thing I can say and Skylar shakes her head.

"I'm happy I know you Dyl, I'm happy I can help you with Aria when Tyler can't. It's... It's just her."

"Her?"

"She has everything! She has a daughter that I can never have! Everything!" The words fall from her lips so fast I can barely register them.

"Daughter you can never have? Skylar- what are you-"

"When I was sixteen I still had never got my period like most girls. My mom took my into the doctor, we quickly found out that I don't produce eggs. I can never be a mom, Dylan, my life dream of having a kid was shatter in front of my eyes. And to see this... This bitch, have an amazing daughter and throw her away like nothing. I can't... I can't stand it!" She stops talking for a second to catch her breath, "She has everything I would ever want, she has a daughter... She has you."

She has you.

It repeats in my mind, everything she says hits me as I turn to face her, her green eyes are a mess with tears. Her hair had been tossed up by the wind and I remember how beautiful I thought she was when I first saw her. Suddenly my mind goes black and I lung forward, cupping her cheeks and;

I kissed her.
